I STAND WITH ISRAEL!!

[@bassyamaha]

Arguments like 'Israel started the (67) war" are for people who don't know the details. Yes Israel struck first-but why it had to?....look up on youtube docs about this conflict!

[@riccardo9383]

The quote from the prime minister, did you read it or you were blind by israeli propaganda that you can't even see what your own prime minister said?

[@sugarhitman]

Cute girls...bad lies. Firstly, Palestine was not a "country", it was a region, settled by a heterogeneous population composed of Afghans, Persians, Circassians, Druze, Italians, Germans, Bosnians, Greeks, Berbers, Turks, Kurds, Bosnians, Indians, Armenians, Jews, Arabs (both nomadic and sedentary)...all living in separate quarters and villages. So a bit of sleight of hand...there was indeed a region called Palestine, but never a Palestinian race, nor nationality.

[@sugarhitman]

Also, Jews purchased over 500,000 acres of land during this heterogeneous division of Palestine...legally, in which they built their homes, and most of the infrastructure in Palestine. The Arabs, along with the 10s of 1000s of Arabs who migrated into Palestine, launched a war to kill the Jews, and rob them of what they built.....and the 67 War, despite Begin's "confession" was provoked by the Arabs, who persistently sent terrorists into Israel from the Egyptian controlled Gaza, and the Jordan West Bank, coupled with mobilization of their forces in the Sinai, and public boasts about an impending war to destroy Israel....But Israel simply struck first.

Hey you what u call ur selves Israel !! .. If u really believe what this mad boy said so you r crazy too .. Ok let we suppose that he's true .. why each of you keep his European or American Passport an don't define on the Israelian Passport ?? .. WHY the weak and coward Israelian government claims that the "Bengorion" Airport has attacked during last war in 2011 and Stopped working ?? .. i tell u why ,, Cuz they Observe that all people in Occupied Palestine Escaping to their originals country (which they keeping its passport) and leave the land and the weak army alone .. So do you think that anybody prefer to escape and leave his land alone !!! So who are the Aborigines of this land !! ... Any way.. YOU WILL ESCAPE AGAIN BABIES ... WE WILL COME BACK TO OUR LANDS

[@sugarhitman]

False. Israel existed then as it does today. despite the attempt of the Greeks and Romans to rename the country Palestine after the Greek Philistines. Archaeology consistently disclose Hebrew artifacts, ancient buildings, etc etc...even the names of many "Arab" villages in Palestine are named in Hebrew...not Philistinian, nor Arabic. In fact, the name Palestine itself is Hebrew in origin, it's a Hebrew word that means "Invader". Heres the truth, both the Europeans and Muslims expelled, barred, forced into migration, the Jews of "Palestine", annexing the homeland of the Jews for themselves...in the name of their respective religions. The Romans, for their Greek/Roman gods, and later Christ, and the Muslims, for Allah and Mohammad. After annexing the land of the Jews, both the Muslims and Europeans oppressed those Jews who lived in their kingdoms and states for 2000 years....and thus the "Wandering Jew". But alas! No more....for the Jews have returned and regained control of their homeland...and their destiny....And no matter how many lies, how many threats are made against them...the truth is the Truth....Justice has prevailed, which shall not be overturned.

[@unclejuan8301]

He did not said your ancestor did not exist or that the land called Palestine did not exist, he said there's no Palestinian STATE or NATION that ever existed. Is this the truth or not? Sorry, but according to my research, what he said is the TRUTH. You don't agree? Ok, so who's the president, prime minister, or head of state of Palestine prior to the establishment of Israel in 1948? Who's your national hero? What's your national anthem? Was there a state or nation called Palestine in the League of Nations or the United Nations? Palestine is the name given by the Roman Empire to the land of Israel and Judea, which are both Jewish states. It's called Palestine at the time of Jesus because it's already under Roman occupation at that time. So yes, you can say that Jesus was born in Palestine, but a Palestine that's is a Jewish nation with Jewish population under Roman occupation. This is historical FACT that every credible historians know. Most of the Jews were forcibly driven out into exile by the Romans, but some never left. The only way to move forward is for both Arabs and Jews to admit that both sides have the right to exist in that land.

[@DottorPulcis]

Palestine is just a geographical name, it does not belong to any group of people. Palestinians are arabs that moved there years ago, they are not related to the ancient inhabitants of that land more than anyone else. I totally agree with you, there is no reason why they should keep trying to find excuses in the pst, they have to adapt to the reality that the only solution is a two states solution. But imho Palestine will never accept it, unfortunately.

Rebuttal The Real Truth about Palestine

[@Inseishabol]

Those Arabs that embraced Israel's declaration of independence. in 1948 and stayed became full Israeli citizens in a Democratic society , the other half who were committed to fighting Israel left, assuming that the mighty Arab armies would wipe out the Jews. But the Jews survived the onslaught, and these Arab refugees had no way to return, so they settled in Gaza, the West bank, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, etc. the same Arab countries they shared their language, culture, religion, and ethnicity with. The same countries they cheered and supported in a war against Israel. Problem solved right? No. The Arabs continuously fought Israel in countless skirmishes, sniper shootings and terror bombings between 48 and 67, when Gaza and west bank were not even under Israeli control. Why didn't they just declare a Palestinian nation then, and end the conflict ? There are two reasons. 1st, UNRWA funding would cease as soon as a Palestinian nation is formed, because all Palestinians would lose their refugee status. Arab Palestinians have been living under foreign aid for 7 decades, they wasted their money and efforts at waging war and brainwashing their children instead of investing in industry and innovation. The loss of foreign aid would cause collapse of Palestinian economy. Hamas fighters and the family of martyrs are paid a hefty salary while producing zero productivity. Even 1st world countries like Spain and Greece are suffering economic collapse due to fierce global competition. 2nd, any Arab leader who accepts peace with Israel is a dead man walking. Religious fanaticism had made sure of that.

You might be embarrassed, I'm very proud. How many Jews or Christians in the Iranian , Iraqi, Syrian Saudi, Kuwait, Bahrain, or Jordanian parliaments? They are well represented in the Israeli parliament where women, gays, and all religions have freedom of speech.

[@forthfarean]

Is this woman serious . The land was Judea and the inhabitants were Jews. The philistines were a people who lived in a tiny part of the area now known as Palestine . They were probably of Greek origin. David killed the Philistine Goliath. Judea was conquered by the Romans who governed it for centuries. After the revolt by the Jews in AD 70 the temple was destroyed and most of the Jewish people expelled. The Romans renamed Judea Palestrina . The Muslim Arabs invaded the Regions under the Greek Roman Empire ( after Rome’s fall in the west) and conquer all the Middle East . Much of Palestine became a part of Syria. The ottoman Turks invaded the Middle East and conquered most of the Arab Empire ,later becoming Muslims themselves. These people captured Anatolia ,now Turkey destroying the Last parts of theChristian Roman Empire. Under the ottomans the area became an administrative district of Syria . Obviously after the Muslim invasions many Muslims moved into the Area . Many Jews had returned to their homeland and Jerusalem was a majority Jewish area. The Jews were treated as dhimmi under the Ottomans . after WW1 the Ottoman Empire was broken up and the Colonial powers took control until permanent arrangements could be made. The Jews were promised part of their ancient homeland and in fact were originally allocated a much larger part of their former homeland . This was reduced to accommodate Arab grievances. The Arabs themselves never recognised Palestine as a nation ,it was a part of Southern Syria. After the Arabs refused to accept their part of the land some of it was stolen by the State of Jordan. Israel was content with the tiny bit of their homeland given them but the Muslims vowed they would never share the land with the Jews. This is why we have this situation. The Jews did not expel the Arabs ,they left on the advice of the Arab governments because of a pending war. They were promised Israeli property when Israel was defeated. But Israel won and those who were actively anti the Israeli state’s existence were refused re entry. The only people with any rights to the whole of Palestine ,apart from the primitive tribes expelled by the ancient Jews thousands of years ago,are the Jews. The Muslims were invaders.

Ah finally the truth

[@forthfarean]

Yes. Israel’s history is complicated ; she has been through many troubles but always stays dedicated to the Jewish destiny. Due to famine and other reasons Jews went into Egypt who allowed them in but feared their increase in numbers and then enslaved them. They returned to the promised land and formed a united state which later split in two . The Syrians and Babylonians conquered and enslaved many again . They were freed and returned to Judea . Alexander the Great had a turn then the Romans conquered them . Then the state was destroyed and the Jews dispersed. The rebirth of Israel is according to prophecy and God’s plan. All of what is called Palestine really belongs to Israel,not just the little bit they have now. Israel could get all their land back in due course. The main stipulation by God is that they remain a just people under God.

"In 1967, there was no Arab nation or state by the name of Palestine. Actually, was there ever?" Let's discuss this: "Are you actually trying to tell me that I, as a Palestinian, do not exist?" No. He was saying that you, as a Palestinian, are part of a people (Arab) that did not, in 1967, have a state in this geographical area that had once legally been called Palestine. This is contrary to the status of the Jewish Palestinians, now called Israelis, who do have a state, called Israel, in this geographical area that had once legally been called Palestine. In case this is new to you, I'll elaborate: 'The right of self-determination for the Palestinians' is a right to which Palestinian Jews as well as Palestinian Arabs are entitled, and which both have, in fact, attained. Before the old 'Palestine' (defined in the 1910 edition of Encyclopedia Britannica as "the strip of land extending along the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea... Eastward there is no such definite border. The River Jordan, it is true, marks a line of delimitation between western and eastern Palestine; but it is practically impossible to say where the latter ends and the Arabian desert begins") became Jordan (in 1946) and Israel (in 1948), the name 'Palestine' was associated with innumerable Jewish, as well as Arab, enterprises. The Jerusalem Post, an Israeli-owned newspaper, was originally founded in 1932 as The Palestine Post, renamed in 1950, two years after the State of Israel was declared. Similarly, the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra was called the Palestine Philharmonic Orchestra before 1948. By mid-1948, two independent sovereign states existed in the area once known as Palestine: the Arab-Palestinian state of Jordan, and the Jewish-Palestinian state of Israel. As Dr. Eugene V. Rostow, who was an influential legal scholar and former Under-Secretary of State (1966-69), has reasoned, "the only possible geographic, demographic and political definition of Palestine is that of the [League of Nations] Mandate, which included what are now Israel and Jordan as well as the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. The term "Palestine" applies to all the peoples who live or have a right to live in the territory - Jews, Christians and Moslems alike. Thus the West Bank and the Gaza Strip are not "Arab" in the legal sense, but territories of the Mandate which have been recognized as belonging to Israel or Jordan." After the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, Jordan ruled Judea and Samaria, or what is now known as the West Bank. This is nearly two decades prior to the 1967 war. An Arab-Palestinian state could easily have been set up there. Yet no such state was established, or even suggested. What changed? Judea, Samaria and the Gaza district came under Israeli control, and about a million Arab Palestinians formerly residing in Arab-ruled areas are now ruled by Israel. Conclusion: An Arab-Palestinian state still exists - Jordan. The Arab Palestinians, whether Jordanians or Israelis, are therefore neither 'stateless' nor 'homeless', but as Danny Ayalon has said, "In 1967, there was no Arab nation or state by the name of Palestine."

Judea and Samaria never had united kingdom of Israel, as Dr. Shalmo Sand states in his book 'Invention of the Land of Israel'.The fact that Palestine existed is evidenced by the references to Palestine found in historical accounts of BC. But Israel cannot be found in any historical document.The ancient name of Palestine, Palashtu, is mentioned in the description of Saba Steel by the Assyrian Emperor Adad Nirani III in 800 BC. Description of Saba Steel:800 BC: Adad-nirari III, Saba'a Stele: “In fifth year of reign, when I took my seat on the royal throne in might, I mobilized land. The wide spreading armies of Assyria I gave the order to advance against Palashtu.'The independent Jewish religious Hebrew-speaking independent kingdom of Samaria was annexed by the Assyrian Emperor Sargon II in 722 BC.The Hebrew-speaking Jews of Samaria were deported to Nineveh, the capital of the Assyrian Empire. In 612 BC, the Babylonians occupied Assyria and Samaria became part of the Babylonian Empire. Nebuchadnezzar exiled the Jewish Hebrew-speaking Jews to Babylon. In 539 BC, the Persian emperor Cyrus captured Babylon. The book of History confirms that the name of the place where the Jews returned from Nineveh and Babylon was Palestine.During the Persian rule, the Jews returned from exile in Nineveh and Babylon, and Judea and Samaria united to form Palestine. The writings of Herodotus in the book 'Histories' confirm that the Palestinians living in Palestine were then Jews.Herodotus wrote that Palestinians were circumcised. Circumcision of Jewish men is obligatory. The Palestinians must have been Jewish at the time. Herodotus described Palestine as a district in Syria as part of Syria. In 450 BC, Herodotus wrote in his book,The Histories[38]"district of Syria, called Palaistinê""[39][10][40] (Book 3[41]): "The country reaching from the city of Posideium to the borders of Egypt... paid a tribute of three hundred and fifty talents. All Phoenicia, Palestine Syria, and Cyprus, were herein contained. This was the fifth satrapy.";[b] (Book 4): "the region I am describing skirts our sea, stretching from Phoenicia along the coast of Palestine-Syria till it comes to Egypt, where it terminates"; (Book 7[42]): "[The Phoenicians and the Syrians of Palestine], according to their own account, dwelt anciently upon the Erythraean Sea, but crossing thence, fixed themselves on the seacoast of Syria, where they still inhabit. This part of Syria, and all the region extending from hence to Egypt, is known by the name of Palestine." "the Colchians, the Egyptians, and the Ethiopians, are the only nations who have practised circumcision from the earliest times. The Phoenicians and the Syrians of Palestine themselves confess that they learnt the custom of the Egyptians.... Now these are the only nations(Palestinian) who use circumcision."[43][44].Greater Palestine was made up of the Areas governed by the Palestinian Authority, Gaza, all of Israel,Golan Heights, southern Lebanon and northwestern Jordan.The Jews who lived in Palestine forgot Hebrew and became Aramaic-speaking.There is no historical evidence of the deportation of Jews by the Romans in the 70's, according to Dr. Shalmo Sand, an emeritus professor of history at Tel Aviv University, in his book 'Invention of the Jewish People'.His idea is that the story of the expulsion of the Jews by the Romans was an import of the early Christians, whose purpose was to convert the Jews to Christianity.'The Invention of Jewish People' was bestseller in Israel.During the Byzantine rule, most of the Jews in Palestine converted to Christianity.Palestine then became Christian majority.During the Arab rule, most of the palestinian Christians converted to Islam and became Arabic speakers.As result, Palestine became Muslim majority.Tamim Dari, Palestinian Christian monk, converted to Islam in Medina in 631, just as Muhammad, the founder of Islam, was still alive.However, not all Palestinian Christians have become Muslims. So there are still some Christians in Palestine.However, during the Arab rule, Palestinian Christians also became Arabic-speaking.Although the Romans did not expel the Jews from Jerusalem, in 135 they banned the entry of Jews from outside Jerusalem.During the Byzantine rule, the local Jews in Jerusalem converted from Judaism to Christianity. As result Jerusalem became Jew emptiness.Jesus Christ, the founder of Christianity, was born into Jewish family.But Jesus preached new religion.Early Christians were the children of Jewish families.Early Christians were the children of Jewish families like St.Paul, St.Peter,Andrew,James, John, Philip,Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas,James, Alphaeus etc.These early Christians converted from Judaism to Christianity. However, the conversion of Palestinian Jews to Christianity began during the pagan Roman rule, which was completed during the Christian Byzantine rule.When the arab conquered Jerusalem, there were no Jews in Jerusalem.After the conquest of Jerusalem by the arab khalifa Omar, the converted Jewish Rabbi Kab al-Ahbar went to Jerusalem with him as companion.When the Arab Khalifa Omar conquered Jerusalem from the Byzantines, Omar resettled 70 Jewish families in Jerusalem.Israeli architect David bin Gurion acknowledged in his statement that the current Palestinians are descendants of the ancient Jews. "the peasants of Palestine were the descendants of the inhabitants of ancient Judea"- David Ben Gurion. Jews are not an ethnic nation, just religion.Islam, Christianity and Buddhism are not ethnic nation, just religion.Just as Muslims, Christians and Buddhists are divided into different languages, Jews are divided into different languages.No Muslim, Christian or Buddhist-majority country gets citizenship by converting to Buddhism or converting to Islam, Christianity and Buddhism.No Muslim, Christian or Buddhist majority country gets citizenship by following Islam, Buddhism, Christianity or converting to Islam, Christianity and Buddhism.However, any Jew in Israel gets citizenship.Even in Israel, citizenship is obtained by converting to Judaism, with ancient Jews who have no genetic connection.Conversions to Judaism have been found throughout ancient history, especially in Yemen and Africa.Most of the Jews in Israel are of Russian Khazarian descent, they are indigenous to Khazaria in Russia.Jews of Russian Khazarian descent are Ashkenazi Jews. Russians are white. similarly, Ashkenazi Jews of Russian Khazarian descent are also white.www.livescience.com/40247-ashkenazi-jews-have-european-genes.html African Black negro Jews are the indigenous people of africa,who converted to Judaism in Africa.Negro Muslims and Negro Christians are black.Similarly, Negro Jews are black.Malayalam-speaking Jews are indigenous to the Indian state of Kerala, who converted to Judaism in Kerala, India.Malayalam Muslims,Malayalam Christians and Malayalam Hindus are black.Similarly,Malayalam Jews are also black.Chinese Jews are indigenous peoples of China who converted to Judaism in China.The Chinese look like Mongolians.Similarly chinese jews look like also mongolian.Nose of chinese are flat.Similarly nose of chinese jews are also flat.How do they get Israeli citizenship?So they are not the indigenous people of Israel.Among the Jews of Israel, the only Arabic-speaking Jews are the indigenous people of Israel.Shalmo Sand's study of the genetics survey at Johns Hopkins University proves that Jews are not an ethnocentric race, Jews are multidimensional.After the Persian invasion, Athens, Sparta, and many small independent Greek-speaking kingdoms were united and Greece was formed.Germany was formed by a number of independent German-speaking states, led by the independent German speaking state of Prussia.England was made up of a few independent English-speaking states, led by the independent English speaking state of Wessex.Similarly, the Aramaic-speaking Samaria and Judea formed Palestine.

Pick your moment in history. How can you claim one has land rights over the other? The unfortunate fact is that the Ottoman empire was destroyed and the land was given jurisdiction to the groups by those that conquered it. They tried to split it between the Palestinians and Jewish people, but Palestinians slapped their hands away and refused. They also refused to the point of warring over it several times since then and have lost every single time. If it was your land at one time it is not now. You lost it by a combination of your own bad choices and losing wars. Hamas knows that and they feel the only way to get the land back is by eliminating the Jewish people off the face of the planet. Can Jews treat Palestinians better? Yes. Can Palestinians stop screaming, "IT'S OUR LAND! YOU STOLE IT FROM US!" Yes they can, but they are refusing to do so. The Jewish people are not going anywhere. There is no amount of screaming at them or shaming them into it. A person does not owe you something or have to disappear just because you say they are your problem. Life does not work like that.

Russians are white. similarly, Ashkenazi Jews of Russian Khazarian descent are also white.www.livescience.com/40247-ashkenazi-jews-have-european-genes.html African Black negro Jews are the indigenous people of africa,who converted to Judaism in Africa.Negro Muslims and Negro Christians are black.Similarly, Negro Jews are black.Malayalam-speaking Jews are indigenous to the Indian state of Kerala, who converted to Judaism in Kerala, India.Malayalam Muslims,Malayalam Christians and Malayalam Hindus are black.Similarly,Malayalam Jews are also black.Chinese Jews are indigenous peoples of China who converted to Judaism in China.The Chinese look like Mongolians.Similarly chinese jews look like also mongolian.Nose of chinese are flat.Similarly nose of chinese jews are also flat.How do they get Israeli citizenship?So they are not the indigenous people of Israel.Among the Jews of Israel, the only Arabic-speaking Jews are the indigenous people of Israel.Shalmo Sand's study of the genetics survey at Johns Hopkins University proves that Jews are not an ethnocentric race, Jews are multidimensional.After the Persian invasion, Athens, Sparta, and many small independent Greek-speaking kingdoms were united and Greece was formed.Germany was formed by a number of independent German-speaking states, led by the independent German speaking state of Prussia.England was made up of a few independent English-speaking states, led by the independent English speaking state of Wessex.Similarly, the Aramaic-speaking Samaria and Judea formed Palestine.

What you state is correct - Jesus was not a 'Palestinian' because no where on the face of the earth, in the history of the world has there ever existed 'Palestinian' as a Nationality until 2006 but to be fair, after WW1 when Great Britain was given the mandate over the last sliver of land not yet created into a state, Great Britain called that piece of land Palestine. The people living in the land, from the British Mandate until May of 1948, were known as Palestinians. And there were Jewish Palestinians and there were Arab Palestinians. Golda Meir carried a Palestinian passport from 1921 until 1948. In fact, up until less then 100 years ago, the connotation 'Palestinian', usually referred to a person who was Jewish, not Arabic.

1. The fact that Palestine was used as a name for centuries doesn't mean there was a Palestinian state, separate national identity or independent political movement back then. During my childhood the term was used in traditional Christmas carols, but it never meant "Arab Islamic Modern-Day Country". 2. Religious minorities like the Druzes and the Bahá'ís are well respected in Israel. In fact, the ethno-religious group with most graduate titles are Christian Arabs (69%), surpassing the Jews (67%). The problem lies within Arab Muslim non-Israeli citizens, a majority of which don't have secular mindsets or have any interest in becoming Israeli citizens. 3.

[@ricardokalinka37]

While your statements are largely totally correct, number 4 is slightly off. Though Israel is perceived to have fired the first shots, that is not true. Other Arab belligerents committed the first acts of war, even including shooting, beginning in the early 1960's. Syria was shelling Israeli communities in the Golan, while Israel kept requesting negotiations with all parties to end the belligerence. Nasser ordered UN peacekeepers removed from the Sinai without General Assembly discussion, a violation of the truce agreement. Egypt blockaded the Straits of Tiran, cutting off Israel's major supply route to the east, another clear act of war under international law.

[@DanieruShidebuteru]

Those were called skirmishes. in '73, Israel did attack first, but it was a preemptive attack. Everybody knew what was going on, Egypt has been amassing military hardware on the Sinai for months. Israel was left with no choice but to strike first. We're talking about a very tiny country here, 424km north to south and 114 km across east to west on its longest and widest points. For us, it's easy to talk about who striked first and lay blames that way. For Israel, it was a matter of survival; the battle in '73 would've been lost already if they didn't strike first. And the Arab nations aimed for the annihilation of the Jewish state, Israel didn't. But thanks for your clarification on the finer points, those were true.

Just today, PA tv ran a piece reminding everyone that "the Jews poisoned Mohammed because that is what they do; and they poisoned Arafat too." Their children's tv teaches that Jews must be killed. 2.

NO , Many people (like the IRISH) in certain regions were under constant occupation does that mean that they didn't exist because they didn't have an independant state !? thats just stupid !

[@EK-ys1qm]

Bashar Ahmaro Hi. Your post raises several issues and it sounds like they relate to the ultimate question of whether or not “overseas Israelis” “stole” land from “Palestinians” to establish “their state.” The simple answer is: No. No one “stole” land from Arabs to build the modern state of Israel. To have something “stolen” it has to be “yours” in the first place and then it has to be illegally “taken” by someone else. People who allege that Israel was created by “stealing” Palestinian Arab land usually use one of two different arguments for Palestinians “owning” land. One of them is “sovereignty. “ They claim that there was an independent state of Palestine and that foreigners illegally “took” it and “gave it” to someone else. For this claim, the issue of whether or not there was an independent state of Palestine is important. However, it also overlooks the fact that this argument also assumes that the “only” Palestinians (or the only ones who count) are “Palestinian Arabs” not “Palestinian Jews.” A related and racist notion is the idea that Arab immigrants to Palestine are "real Palestinians" and that Jewish immigrants to Palestine are not. This is important since British records show over 500,000 Arabs immigrated INTO Palestine between the 1920's and 1940's. When you combine this with the UNRWA notes that many of those registering as "Palestinian refugees" in 1948 were clearly Arabs from OTHER states who were not Palestinians but fake registrants, MOST "Palestinian Arabs in 1948" were fakes or recent immigrants. The question of whether or not it was an independent state is also important because it is related to the issue of the disposition of the West Bank. The land was won from Jordan in a defensive war. Jordan won it in an offensive war. This makes “ownership” of the land from a sovereignty point of view very complicated and probably explains why all the many attempts to change UN SC Res 242 to require that Israel withdraw from “all” the land won in that war were all defeated and instead it was passed as requiring all parties to peacefully negotiate final status borders. The second foundation for arguing that Palestinian Arabs had land stolen relies on the claim that Palestinian Arabs owned private property and it was illegally taken away from them. This is also false. According to British land documents, Palestinian Arabs owned about 5% of the land in Palestine; Palestinian Jews owned about 7% of the land, Foreign Arabs owned about 20% and the rest was all owned by the government and leased to locals. That has been the custom for over a thousand years. Most land is owned by the government (the UK and before that two different Ottoman Empires). But, I would also like to point out that in establishing independence, “private property” is to be unaffected and is not relevant to independence decisions, unless are going back a few hundred years to only allow “land owners” a vote. So, again, by and large Palestinian Arabs did not have land stolen from them. In some discrete cases, it did happen. However, under Israeli law any Arab who can demonstrate they legally owned property and it was lost in the wars either gets the property back or fair market compensation. And it works. As of 1993, over 200,000 dunums of land have been repatriated to Arabs. Just a few months ago, some Palestinian Arabs argued that settlers had illegally taken their private property on which to build homes. They had their day in court and the Israeli court evicted the settlers, as it should be. No one should have their private property seized. Sadly, there is no such similar process for Palestinian (or other) Jews whose property was seized by Arabs. Heck, Jordan ethnically cleansed 100% of the Jews from Jerusalem the West Bank, and Gaza in 1948; Palestinian Arabs ethnically cleansed every Jew and stole their property from Hebron in 1929, Sfad in the 1800’s etc… You also mention “overseas.” According to immigration records, over 500,000 Arabs immigrated into Palestine post 1920’s. This means that roughly half of the Palestinian Arabs moved there no earlier than the 1920’s (if at all). (I say at all because the UNRWA admitted that their registration figures of refugees in 1948 were grossly inflated with poor Arabs from neighboring states who wanted the aid package. No one imagined what would eventually happen to the “Palestinian refugees.” In fact, approximately 80% of Palestine was granted independence in 1946 as the Jew Free state of Jordan. The remaining 20% of Palestine had both Arabs and Jews living in it. They both wanted independence and both wanted to control the government of that state. In the end, the UK gave it to the UN , which decided to create 2 states with borders and governments based on demographic majority. Majority Arab areas were to be a second Palestinian Arab state with an Arab government; Majority Jewish areas were to be the modern state of Israel with a Jewish government; and Majority Jewish Jerusalem was to be an “international city” open to all and controlled by no one state. If you want to use the analogy of the “Irish” then a better analogy would be if there were TWO warring groups of Irish both of whom wanted independence. One of the groups of Irish may have had a history of ethnically cleansing the OTHER Irish group. And in the end, they got independence not as ONE Irish state but as two, each one governed by the majority population based on the type of Irish group living there. But, the Arab Irish decided that that was not good enough that they should ethnically cleanse the OTHER Irish. Let’s make the analogy even more like the real situation on the ground. The Irish Catholic side has 20% of their population as Arab Irish and their rights are protected. The Arab Irish immediately ethnically cleansed EVERY single Irish Catholic from Arab Irish controlled areas. And now the Arab Irish are claiming that the Irish Catholics “stole” all the Arab Irish land to create their Irish Catholic state. And now someone argues on a bulletin board that the Irish Catholics are stupid for resisting…

So no, he was a Judean under the Kingdom of Judea - Jewish kingdom.

[@MrBarakzach]

In fact before this land was called Palestine the name of the country of Judah because it was the home of the Jewish people. The name Palestine comes from people known as the Philistines, their name means "those who come from the sea" the origin of the Philistines was from Greece and they came to Judah following the colonization of Greek colonization In the that area. After the destruction the romans defeated the Jewish people in The First Jewish-Roman War (66-73 CE), sometimes called The Great Revolt. The Romans expelled the men of Judah and in order to lower the affinity of the Jews to come back and settle in their homeland the Romans changed the name of this region to Palestine. The Romans could have just as easily change the name from Judah to England or The United States Of America, does that mean that the people who call themselves Palestinians are Englishmen or Americans? Moreover the Philistines had disappeared from the map of the world something like 1200 years before the Islam was formed. Don’t even bother to use Islam as an excuse to use against Israel because the Quran says the Israel belong to the Israeli people. There is not a single mention in the Quran of Palestine or Jerusalem. So who are actually Palestinians? Refugees from various Arab countries who settled in Gaza, their language, culture, traditions etc mixed up mixed up and they suddenly arose one day during the eighties and decided they are a new people and nation; no longer Iraqi or Egyptian, Syrian Libyan etc. and they adopted Palestine to their hearts and decided that they are called Palestinians. Some questions for thought, if the Palestinians were such a based country as they claim to be and their origins are routed so far back I want them to name another Palestinian leader prior you Yasser Arafat, what is written in the Palestinian constitution? What traditions do the Palestinians have? What is their national anthem? What is their native coin called? They cant answer those questions cause those things don’t exist and never existed.

The Arabs refused and responded with the famous "three no's of Khartoum." 3. Under Israeli administration, the Palestinian Arab population dramatically INCREASED, access to medical care, average income, and average life expectancy all dramatically INCREASED relative to what it was as part of Jordan AND compared to neighboring Arab populations in other states. This continued right up until Arafat's intifada. That is the opposite of genocide.

Nasser expelled the UN peacekeeping forces placed there in 1956 and started massing his troops in that area. So yes, Israel was acting in self defense. Oh, and let's not forget about the refugees.

Judea and Samaria never had united kingdom of Israel, as Dr. Shalmo Sand states in his book 'Invention of the Land of Israel'.The fact that Palestine existed is evidenced by the references to Palestine found in historical accounts of BC. But Israel cannot be found in any historical document.The ancient name of Palestine, Palashtu, is mentioned in the description of Saba Steel by the Assyrian Emperor Adad Nirani III in 800 BC. Description of Saba Steel:800 BC: Adad-nirari III, Saba'a Stele: “In fifth year of reign, when I took my seat on the royal throne in might, I mobilized land. The wide spreading armies of Assyria I gave the order to advance against Palashtu.'The independent Jewish religious Hebrew-speaking independent kingdom of Samaria was annexed by the Assyrian Emperor Sargon II in 722 BC.The Hebrew-speaking Jews of Samaria were deported to Nineveh, the capital of the Assyrian Empire. In 612 BC, the Babylonians occupied Assyria and Samaria became part of the Babylonian Empire. Nebuchadnezzar exiled the Jewish Hebrew-speaking Jews to Babylon. In 539 BC, the Persian emperor Cyrus captured Babylon. The book of History confirms that the name of the place where the Jews returned from Nineveh and Babylon was Palestine.During the Persian rule, the Jews returned from exile in Nineveh and Babylon, and Judea and Samaria united to form Palestine. The writings of Herodotus in the book 'Histories' confirm that the Palestinians living in Palestine were then Jews.Herodotus wrote that Palestinians were circumcised. Circumcision of Jewish men is obligatory. The Palestinians must have been Jewish at the time. Herodotus described Palestine as a district in Syria as part of Syria. In 450 BC, Herodotus wrote in his book,The Histories[38]"district of Syria, called Palaistinê""[39][10][40] (Book 3[41]): "The country reaching from the city of Posideium to the borders of Egypt... paid a tribute of three hundred and fifty talents. All Phoenicia, Palestine Syria, and Cyprus, were herein contained. This was the fifth satrapy.";[b] (Book 4): "the region I am describing skirts our sea, stretching from Phoenicia along the coast of Palestine-Syria till it comes to Egypt, where it terminates"; (Book 7[42]): "[The Phoenicians and the Syrians of Palestine], according to their own account, dwelt anciently upon the Erythraean Sea, but crossing thence, fixed themselves on the seacoast of Syria, where they still inhabit. This part of Syria, and all the region extending from hence to Egypt, is known by the name of Palestine." "the Colchians, the Egyptians, and the Ethiopians, are the only nations who have practised circumcision from the earliest times. The Phoenicians and the Syrians of Palestine themselves confess that they learnt the custom of the Egyptians.... Now these are the only nations(Palestinian) who use circumcision."[43][44].Greater Palestine was made up of the Areas governed by the Palestinian Authority, Gaza, all of Israel,Golan Heights, southern Lebanon and northwestern Jordan.The Jews who lived in Palestine forgot Hebrew and became Aramaic-speaking.There is no historical evidence of the deportation of Jews by the Romans in the 70's, according to Dr. Shalmo Sand, an emeritus professor of history at Tel Aviv University, in his book 'Invention of the Jewish People'.His idea is that the story of the expulsion of the Jews by the Romans was an import of the early Christians, whose purpose was to convert the Jews to Christianity.'The Invention of Jewish People' was bestseller in Israel.During the Byzantine rule, most of the Jews in Palestine converted to Christianity.Palestine then became Christian majority.During the Arab rule, most of the palestinian Christians converted to Islam and became Arabic speakers.As result, Palestine became Muslim majority.Tamim Dari, Palestinian Christian monk, converted to Islam in Medina in 631, just as Muhammad, the founder of Islam, was still alive.However, not all Palestinian Christians have become Muslims. So there are still some Christians in Palestine.However, during the Arab rule, Palestinian Christians also became Arabic-speaking.Although the Romans did not expel the Jews from Jerusalem, in 135 they banned the entry of Jews from outside Jerusalem.During the Byzantine rule, the local Jews in Jerusalem converted from Judaism to Christianity.

Now, only thing to do, is to you to connect 'your people' with those ancient tribes aka Philistines (sea people), Palestinian Arabs, Palestinian Jews, Palestinian Muslims and other tribes that occupied that area. It is a fact that the name Palestine appears in history, but it does not mean that it's a country, nation, identity etc. Fact is that Palestine is a name of an geographical region, mostly empty and dry land before Jews make it flourish. There is no history of Palestine. Cite some sources, if you have some. Saying 400 BC does not mean anything. Please name some ancient Palestinian rulers, kings, historians, writings, outside mentions on literature. There is none, that will confirm you claim.

In what part of this, where the "evil Zionist Jews" guilty to illegal migration. They have been there before (27% like you said), they have bought parts of that land from Arabs, they accepted former occupants as citizens, if they agreed to that.

Let me tell you something about the name "Palestine" Do you know where the name "Palestine" comes from? The Roman Empire called the land of Israel "Syria Palestine", as an insult to the Jews. It is named after the Philistines, which used to be Jews' enemy when before David became the king of Judea. The name Palestine just stuck And by the way, when you called Betlehem a Palestinian city, you probably forgot that the Hebrew meaning for Betlehem is "house of bread" (בית לחם). Now don't get me wrong, I'm an Israeli and I'm rooting for peace, but I just couldn't stand these bias

[@অনিন্দ্য-ষ৭ধ]

Judea and Samaria never had united kingdom of Israel, as Dr. Shalmo Sand states in his book 'Invention of the Land of Israel'.The fact that Palestine existed is evidenced by the references to Palestine found in historical accounts of BC. But Israel cannot be found in any historical document.The ancient name of Palestine, Palashtu, is mentioned in the description of Saba Steel by the Assyrian Emperor Adad Nirani III in 800 BC. Description of Saba Steel:800 BC: Adad-nirari III, Saba'a Stele: “In fifth year of reign, when I took my seat on the royal throne in might, I mobilized land. The wide spreading armies of Assyria I gave the order to advance against Palashtu.'The independent Jewish religious Hebrew-speaking independent kingdom of Samaria was annexed by the Assyrian Emperor Sargon II in 722 BC.The Hebrew-speaking Jews of Samaria were deported to Nineveh, the capital of the Assyrian Empire. In 612 BC, the Babylonians occupied Assyria and Samaria became part of the Babylonian Empire. Nebuchadnezzar exiled the Jewish Hebrew-speaking Jews to Babylon. In 539 BC, the Persian emperor Cyrus captured Babylon. The book of History confirms that the name of the place where the Jews returned from Nineveh and Babylon was Palestine.During the Persian rule, the Jews returned from exile in Nineveh and Babylon, and Judea and Samaria united to form Palestine. The writings of Herodotus in the book 'Histories' confirm that the Palestinians living in Palestine were then Jews.Herodotus wrote that Palestinians were circumcised. Circumcision of Jewish men is obligatory. The Palestinians must have been Jewish at the time. Herodotus described Palestine as a district in Syria as part of Syria. In 450 BC, Herodotus wrote in his book,The Histories[38]"district of Syria, called Palaistinê""[39][10][40] (Book 3[41]): "The country reaching from the city of Posideium to the borders of Egypt... paid a tribute of three hundred and fifty talents. All Phoenicia, Palestine Syria, and Cyprus, were herein contained. This was the fifth satrapy.";[b] (Book 4): "the region I am describing skirts our sea, stretching from Phoenicia along the coast of Palestine-Syria till it comes to Egypt, where it terminates"; (Book 7[42]): "[The Phoenicians and the Syrians of Palestine], according to their own account, dwelt anciently upon the Erythraean Sea, but crossing thence, fixed themselves on the seacoast of Syria, where they still inhabit. This part of Syria, and all the region extending from hence to Egypt, is known by the name of Palestine." "the Colchians, the Egyptians, and the Ethiopians, are the only nations who have practised circumcision from the earliest times. The Phoenicians and the Syrians of Palestine themselves confess that they learnt the custom of the Egyptians.... Now these are the only nations(Palestinian) who use circumcision."[43][44].Greater Palestine was made up of the Areas governed by the Palestinian Authority, Gaza, all of Israel,Golan Heights, southern Lebanon and northwestern Jordan.The Jews who lived in Palestine forgot Hebrew and became Aramaic-speaking.There is no historical evidence of the deportation of Jews by the Romans in the 70's, according to Dr. Shalmo Sand, an emeritus professor of history at Tel Aviv University, in his book 'Invention of the Jewish People'.His idea is that the story of the expulsion of the Jews by the Romans was an import of the early Christians, whose purpose was to convert the Jews to Christianity.'The Invention of Jewish People' was bestseller in Israel.During the Byzantine rule, most of the Jews in Palestine converted to Christianity.Palestine then became Christian majority.During the Arab rule, most of the palestinian Christians converted to Islam and became Arabic speakers.As result, Palestine became Muslim majority.Tamim Dari, Palestinian Christian monk, converted to Islam in Medina in 631, just as Muhammad, the founder of Islam, was still alive.However, not all Palestinian Christians have become Muslims. So there are still some Christians in Palestine.However, during the Arab rule, Palestinian Christians also became Arabic-speaking.Although the Romans did not expel the Jews from Jerusalem, in 135 they banned the entry of Jews from outside Jerusalem.During the Byzantine rule, the local Jews in Jerusalem converted from Judaism to Christianity. As result Jerusalem became Jew emptiness.Jesus Christ, the founder of Christianity, was born into Jewish family.But Jesus preached new religion.Early Christians were the children of Jewish families.Early Christians were the children of Jewish families like St.Paul, St.Peter,Andrew,James, John, Philip,Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas,James, Alphaeus etc.These early Christians converted from Judaism to Christianity.

On the matter of how he painted the figures in the video. He painted a Jordanian soldier as a man with a Keffiyeh and a gun, being pretty accurate. He never once mentioned that it was an illustration of all arabs or muslims, the drawing purpose was to illustrate a Jordanian soldier in 1967. As for the other drawing, he drew a man smoking with a red hat. If we take a look at the ottoman empire, the tobacco industry was very developed and popular. The red hats and the tobacco represented the culture of the ottoman empire at that time. Again he never once said that these drawing depict all arabs or muslims, those were your words not his.

He didn't deny that Palestinians exist. He denied that an independent country called Palestine existed. The term Palestinae was what the Romans called it after conquering it. The name was resurrected by the British, but the term didn't refer to Arabs specifically. Ariel Sharon was born on the British Mandate of Palestine, which was not a state, but a British property that had been promised to the Jews, it also included Jordan.

[@michardav]

Nope the area was called "Palesiniae" BEFORE the Romans conquered it, even by JEWISH writers. But if you want to be technical, there was never an ancient Jewish state called "Israel" either. Judaism is generally recognized to have gotten really off the ground AFTER the Babylonian exile and centuries after the fall of Israel to the Assyrians.

[@NerdLifts]

@@michardav no it wasn't. Some Greek literature refers to the home of the Philistines, but the Philistines did not control the whole area, only a small strip, and they were in no way related to Arabs or Jews. The term wasn't officially used to denote an area until the Romans began using it after they conquered the Jewish kingdom. The Roman used Palestinae as it was derived from Philistines, who were conquerers of European origin.

[@michardav]

"Some Greek literature refers to the home of the Philistines" untirely untrue, there is no evidence the Greeks even knew of the Philistines, nor did the Romans. Herodotus mentions it in his histories simply because that's what it was called, same with Aristotle in his treaties on meteorology when he speaks about the Dead Sea. Philo a RABBI calls it Palestine- and he died about 40 CE!! Sorry but historians simply do not back your case. But common misconception. The fact is we only have two sources for Hadrian's reign, only one mentions the name change, and it was specifically reasoned as an amalgamation of Galilee, Judea and Samaria to name already in common usage- Palestine. There is no mention of "Philistines" and in fact it would be ridiculous to claim as such since "Philistine" is only mentioned in the Tanakh and I really doubt your average pagan Greek or Roman was familiar with the Jewish set of Holy Books nor cared. Also keep in mind that the vast majority of Jews lived OUTSIDE Palestine at the time of the Emperors in Rome- Egypt having the highest population followed by Babylon (Persia),

[@NerdLifts]

@@michardav You need to look at your own sources. ""As early as the Histories of Herodotus, written in the second half of the fifth century B.C.E., the term Palaistinê is used to describe not just the geographical area where the Philistines lived....." "Hence, when Herodotus (3.91), the first classical writer to mention Palestine, speaks of the fifth province of the Persians as including Phoenicia and the part of Syria called Palestine and Cyprus; the part of Syria called Palestine either refers only to the coastal area, so called because it had been inhabited by the Philistines, or he is speaking loosely, since the only part of the area that he had visited was apparently along the coast. Hence he called the whole land by the name of the coastal strip. " Herodotus was referring to the Philistines. The Philistines were a coastal likely Greek people, so it makes sense that some Greek authors would refer to Philistines. The Romans purposely chose the name Palestinae to associate the area with European invaders and disassociate it from the Jews. Once again the Philistines had no connection to Jews or Arabs. They were a European group originating in what is now Greece.

[@michardav]

And just a few years later Aristotle says the Dead Sea is in Palestine, which isn't near the coast. Sorry try again...BTW EVEN that were the case, remember that the Angles only dwelt in a small part of the south east coast yet all of England bears their name. AND doesn't change the fact that even JEWS were calling the area Palestine- as opposed to ISRAEL- before the Romans changed it. You're claim was that the Romans changed the name, they only made it official, the place was already called that. Nor was the name resurrected by the British since Mark Twain wrote an entire book on his visit to PALESTINE- not ISRAEL- decades before World War One. Your claim is simply and demonstrably false.

There is no such a thing like a Palestinian people, or a Palestinian culture, or a Palestinian language, or a Palestinian history. There has never been any Palestinian state, neither any Palestinian archaeological find nor coinage. The present-day "Palestinians" are an Arab people, with Arab culture, Arabic language and Arab history. They have their own Arab states from where they came into the Land of Israel about one century ago to contrast the Jewish immigration. That is the historical truth. They were Jordanians (another recent British invention, as there has never been any people known as "Jordanians"), and after the Six-Day War in which Israel utterly defeated the coalition of nine Arab states and took legitimate possession of Judea and Samaria, the Arab dwellers in those regions underwent a kind of anthropological miracle and discovered that they were Palestinians - something they did not know the day before. Of course, these people having a new identity had to build themselves a history, namely, had to steal some others' history, and the only way that the victims of the theft would not complain is if those victims do no longer exist. Therefore, the Palestinian leaders claimed two contradictory lineages from ancient peoples that inhabited in the Land of Israel: the Canaanites and the Philistines. Let us consider both of them before going on with the Palestinian issue. Read more here: www.imninalu.net/myths-pals.htm

read what Mark Twain was writing over the Land, when he was first time visited it. ZITAT: zionismandisrael.wordpress.com/2008/08/28/mark-twain-in-the-holy-land/ Mark Twain in the Holy Land Mark Twain visited Israel in 1867, and published his impressions in Innocents Abroad. He described a desolate country - devoid of both vegetation and human population: “….. A desolate country whose soil is rich enough, but is given over wholly to weeds… a silent mournful expanse…. a desolation…. we never saw a human being on the whole route…. hardly a tree or shrub anywhere. Even the olive tree and the cactus, those fast friends of a worthless soil, had almost deserted the country.” ZITAT END The most "Palestiniens" was Arab foreign workers from other arab countrys in the Ottoman (Turkish) Mandat. The people who was called palestiniens was all, jewish and arabs, both have had a "Palestine Passport" and was citizens of the Britisch Mandat of Palestine before 1948.

Nor are Palestinians Arab foreign workers- unless you don't believe an Israeli research team from the Hebrew University who found "Genetic analysis suggests that a majority of the Muslims of Palestine, inclusive of Arab citizens of Israel, are descendants of Christians, Jews and other earlier inhabitants of the southern Levant whose core may reach back to prehistoric times." Oh and David Ben-Gurion who also believed the Palestinians were descended from Jews who stayed. Mark Twain? Oh you mean when he called the land desolate, like much of the Negev STILL IS. He also described rich till fertile land and orchards.

[@penibiukoto3094]

Palestine was the name given by the Roman Empire to the area covered by Judea, Samaria, and Galilee, in other words, Israel.

[@অনিন্দ্য-ষ৭ধ]

Jordan was also part of Palestine. Judea and Samaria never had united kingdom of Israel, as Dr. Shalmo Sand states in his book 'Invention of the Land of Israel'.The fact that Palestine existed is evidenced by the references to Palestine found in historical accounts of BC. But Israel cannot be found in any historical document.The ancient name of Palestine, Palashtu, is mentioned in the description of Saba Steel by the Assyrian Emperor Adad Nirani III in 800 BC. Description of Saba Steel:800 BC: Adad-nirari III, Saba'a Stele: “In fifth year of reign, when I took my seat on the royal throne in might, I mobilized land. The wide spreading armies of Assyria I gave the order to advance against Palashtu.'The independent Jewish religious Hebrew-speaking independent kingdom of Samaria was annexed by the Assyrian Emperor Sargon II in 722 BC.The Hebrew-speaking Jews of Samaria were deported to Nineveh, the capital of the Assyrian Empire. In 612 BC, the Babylonians occupied Assyria and Samaria became part of the Babylonian Empire. Nebuchadnezzar exiled the Jewish Hebrew-speaking Jews to Babylon. In 539 BC, the Persian emperor Cyrus captured Babylon. The book of History confirms that the name of the place where the Jews returned from Nineveh and Babylon was Palestine.During the Persian rule, the Jews returned from exile in Nineveh and Babylon, and Judea and Samaria united to form Palestine. The writings of Herodotus in the book 'Histories' confirm that the Palestinians living in Palestine were then Jews.Herodotus wrote that Palestinians were circumcised. Circumcision of Jewish men is obligatory. The Palestinians must have been Jewish at the time. Herodotus described Palestine as a district in Syria as part of Syria. In 450 BC, Herodotus wrote in his book,The Histories[38]"district of Syria, called Palaistinê""[39][10][40] (Book 3[41]): "The country reaching from the city of Posideium to the borders of Egypt... paid a tribute of three hundred and fifty talents. All Phoenicia, Palestine Syria, and Cyprus, were herein contained. This was the fifth satrapy.";[b] (Book 4): "the region I am describing skirts our sea, stretching from Phoenicia along the coast of Palestine-Syria till it comes to Egypt, where it terminates"; (Book 7[42]): "[The Phoenicians and the Syrians of Palestine], according to their own account, dwelt anciently upon the Erythraean Sea, but crossing thence, fixed themselves on the seacoast of Syria, where they still inhabit. This part of Syria, and all the region extending from hence to Egypt, is known by the name of Palestine." "the Colchians, the Egyptians, and the Ethiopians, are the only nations who have practised circumcision from the earliest times. The Phoenicians and the Syrians of Palestine themselves confess that they learnt the custom of the Egyptians.... Now these are the only nations(Palestinian) who use circumcision."[43][44].Greater Palestine was made up of the Areas governed by the Palestinian Authority, Gaza, all of Israel,Golan Heights, southern Lebanon and northwestern Jordan.The Jews who lived in Palestine forgot Hebrew and became Aramaic-speaking.There is no historical evidence of the deportation of Jews by the Romans in the 70's, according to Dr. Shalmo Sand, an emeritus professor of history at Tel Aviv University, in his book 'Invention of the Jewish People'.His idea is that the story of the expulsion of the Jews by the Romans was an import of the early Christians, whose purpose was to convert the Jews to Christianity.'The Invention of Jewish People' was bestseller in Israel.During the Byzantine rule, most of the Jews in Palestine converted to Christianity.Palestine then became Christian majority.During the Arab rule, most of the palestinian Christians converted to Islam and became Arabic speakers.As result, Palestine became Muslim majority.Tamim Dari, Palestinian Christian monk, converted to Islam in Medina in 631, just as Muhammad, the founder of Islam, was still alive.However, not all Palestinian Christians have become Muslims. So there are still some Christians in Palestine.However, during the Arab rule, Palestinian Christians also became Arabic-speaking.Although the Romans did not expel the Jews from Jerusalem, in 135 they banned the entry of Jews from outside Jerusalem.During the Byzantine rule, the local Jews in Jerusalem converted from Judaism to Christianity. As result Jerusalem became Jew emptiness.Jesus Christ, the founder of Christianity, was born into Jewish family.But Jesus preached new religion.Early Christians were the children of Jewish families.Early Christians were the children of Jewish families like St.Paul, St.Peter,Andrew,James, John, Philip,Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas,James, Alphaeus etc.These early Christians converted from Judaism to Christianity. However, the conversion of Palestinian Jews to Christianity began during the pagan Roman rule, which was completed during the Christian Byzantine rule.When the arab conquered Jerusalem, there were no Jews in Jerusalem.After the conquest of Jerusalem by the arab khalifa Omar, the converted Jewish Rabbi Kab al-Ahbar went to Jerusalem with him as companion.When the Arab Khalifa Omar conquered Jerusalem from the Byzantines, Omar resettled 70 Jewish families in Jerusalem.Israeli architect David bin Gurion acknowledged in his statement that the current Palestinians are descendants of the ancient Jews. "the peasants of Palestine were the descendants of the inhabitants of ancient Judea"- David Ben Gurion. Jews are not an ethnic nation, just religion.Islam, Christianity and Buddhism are not ethnic nation, just religion.Just as Muslims, Christians and Buddhists are divided into different languages, Jews are divided into different languages.No Muslim, Christian or Buddhist-majority country gets citizenship by converting to Buddhism or converting to Islam, Christianity and Buddhism.No Muslim, Christian or Buddhist majority country gets citizenship by following Islam, Buddhism, Christianity or converting to Islam, Christianity and Buddhism.However, any Jew in Israel gets citizenship.Even in Israel, citizenship is obtained by converting to Judaism, with ancient Jews who have no genetic connection.Conversions to Judaism have been found throughout ancient history, especially in Yemen and Africa.Most of the Jews in Israel are of Russian Khazarian descent, they are indigenous to Khazaria in Russia.Jews of Russian Khazarian descent are Ashkenazi Jews. Russians are white. similarly, Ashkenazi Jews of Russian Khazarian descent are also white.www.livescience.com/40247-ashkenazi-jews-have-european-genes.html African Black negro Jews are the indigenous people of africa,who converted to Judaism in Africa.Negro Muslims and Negro Christians are black.Similarly, Negro Jews are black.Malayalam-speaking Jews are indigenous to the Indian state of Kerala, who converted to Judaism in Kerala, India.Malayalam Muslims,Malayalam Christians and Malayalam Hindus are black.Similarly,Malayalam Jews are also black.Chinese Jews are indigenous peoples of China who converted to Judaism in China.The Chinese look like Mongolians.Similarly chinese jews look like also mongolian.Nose of chinese are flat.Similarly nose of chinese jews are also flat.How do they get Israeli citizenship?So they are not the indigenous people of Israel.Among the Jews of Israel, the only Arabic-speaking Jews are the indigenous people of Israel.Shalmo Sand's study of the genetics survey at Johns Hopkins University proves that Jews are not an ethnocentric race, Jews are multidimensional.After the Persian invasion, Athens, Sparta, and many small independent Greek-speaking kingdoms were united and Greece was formed.Germany was formed by a number of independent German-speaking states, led by the independent German speaking state of Prussia.England was made up of a few independent English-speaking states, led by the independent English speaking state of Wessex.Similarly, the Aramaic-speaking Samaria and Judea formed Palestine.

NO ONE has EVER denied that the Palestinian people exist. MOST thinking people deny (and are correct) that there was ever a Palestinian state or nation. To say there was ever a Palestinain state in past history would be the equivalent of saying Sub-Saharan Africa is a state or western Europe is a state.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but all the historical references of the Greek and Romans since the time of Herodotus referred to the land as "Palestina" which is from the Greek form Palaistinē which was a word used to describe the land of the Philistines. Note here the "Philistines" not the "Palestinians". The Roman occupiers took Syria and Judea (the home land of the Jews) and called it "Syria-Palaestina" once again with "Palastina"; a general term meaning rolling or migratory. This referred to the "Philistine's" invasion and conquest of the coast from the sea. Note: The "Philistines" were not Arabs.

who lived there ? Jews lived there - And when the Jews lived there and the Jewish temple existed - the Arabs drank wine, believed in pagan statues, buried their daughters alive and worshiped Elilath - El Manath and Uzath - Then a man named Muhammad said that he had heard verses from Gabriel ... and Muhammad established Islam - and in the name of Islam - the Arabs conquered the Levant and Jerusalem - a city that did not belong to Muslims or Arabs! Mohammed is a perverted pedophile who raped a little girl at the age of 9 ! Jerusalem is not mentioned at all in the Koran - not even once! so it is immoral to kick The Jews out of their land just because a pedophile false prophet Muhammad tell us that he heard some verses from the devil - and he twisted and distorted everything - The Arabs belong to Saudi Arabia - from where Islam came - they do not belong to Jerusalem!

[@ataeast3851]

What a silly argument- First of all, you do not need the letter J - in Hebrew - because the original name of the Jews in Hebrew is - Yehudim - the Arabs also express it - Yehudiya or Yahud! In a foreign language they express it - Jew - but the Jews express it correctly - in their original language! The Arabs, on the other hand, do not have the letter P - and they can not pronounce the letter P! Therefore the Palestinians can not pronounce their name - because it is not theirs - they took this name from another nation! The original Palestinians are Philistines - They are a nation that originated from the Aegean Sea - Greece, Crete, Minoan and more. Their original name begins with the letter P - and expresses it - Pelishtim ( Palestine ) - The Arabs pronounce the name F - Falastine - What just proves that this name is not theirs is unnatural to their language, they can not pronounce the name of their nation properly and in the right way - which indicates that they stole it - and that they are not really a nation! As well as - the biblical name of the Philistines( Pelishtim/Palestine) means in Hebrew - "invaders" - It's coming from the root word "Pelisha" which mean in Hebrew to invade - cause the biblical Philistines came and invade from Crete and Greece ! The Arab Palestinians have no history !!! There has never been a Palestinian kingdom, a Palestinian state, a Palestinian coin, Palestinian symbols, a Palestinian language, Palestinian traditions, Palestinian religion, and ancient Palestinian personalities. There has never been a Palestinian rebellion against any empire - against the Greeks, Persians, Romans, Babylonians, etc.! Philistine culture was extinct with the Assyrian conquest in the 8th century BC !!!! Since then, the name "Palestine" has been used only as a regional Geographical term - and not a name of any nation - certainly not of an Arab nation! Another fact is that the Arabs conquered the Levant not because the Byzantines provoked them! The Arabs conquered the Levant and large parts of North Africa because of the spread of Islam! On the contrary, the Byzantines grew weaker and weaker, and the Arabs took advantage of it, and in victories they quickly conquered the Levant from the Byzantines and the Sassanian ! The Muslims are the ones who invaded - in the name of Islam and their murderous ideology ! Quds in Arabic means "holy" or sacred - and it's not means Jerusalem! The name Jerusalem explicitly is never mentioned in the Koran - not even once! The al-Aqsa mosque did not exist and it was not built yet when the Koran was written, or the Prophet Muhammad the pedophile made his fake false stupid "night journey" on a winget donkey ! Ha - What a JOKE !!! According to ancient Islamic sources, the al-Aqsa Mosque, once mentioned in the Koran, was one of two mosques located next to a village in the Arabian Peninsula (now Saudi Arabia) called Jajrana, between the cities of Mecca and Taif. The mosque near to the village is called - al-Masjid al-'Adna - means - the nearest mosque, while the second, the more distant one, is called - al-Masjid al-Aqsa - the furthest Mosque. This is the Al-Aqsa Mosque mentioned in the Koran in Chapter 17, which describes the myth of the night journey of Muhammad from the Holy Mosque in Mecca to the Far Mosque in Jajrana. Finally - the Jews are Jews - genetic tests prove beyond any shadow of a doubt that Jews from Europe or elsewhere - have roots in the Middle East! A Jew is the person who is born to a Jewish mother - and today there are millions of people who see themselves as Jews and are not necessarily religious - they are connected and related to the Jewish culture, tradition and history of the Jews! The traditions and culture of the Jews have been confounded from father to son for generations, and very few joined or converted to the Jewish people! It is known that conversion is a long and arduous process - and one can not simply become a Jew - In contrast to the Arabs and Islam - who accept everyone - you have to say one miserable sentence - and that you become a Muslim! Another thing - the absolute majority of Jews does not prevent religious reasons - but for historical reasons! Historically, Jerusalem and the Land of Israel belong to Jews even before the Arabs invaded the Levant. This is a historical fact that can not be challenged - the cradle of Judaism is in Judea and Samaria and Jerusalem! The cradle of Islam and the Arabs is in Mecca - Saudi Arabia !! The vast majority of Arab Palestinians - themselves immigrants who came from different Arab regions - and different Arab countries! The majority came from Egypt, but there are other masses who came from Morocco, Libya, Iraq, Syria, Saudi Arabia and even from Europe - the Balkans ! If you can tell us about the "Palestinian" history - I would love to learn something new " But "Palestinians" is an Arab invention! And Jerusalem has never been the capital of an Islamic caliphate or a Palestinian state, or a Palestinian kingdom , and Jerusalem has never been an Arab capital!

Only British authority, zionist leadership and panarabist intellectuals and Leaders didn't recognize the palestinian people, their request and rights, for specifical reasons. And there were protests in West Bank during jordanian occupation, and request ti change the name in "Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan AND Palestine"! With other requests, that were often tied with specifical palestinian request in Israel.

The Jews revolted due to persecution, so the Romans destroyed many of their cultural and religious sites, such as the Second Temple of Jerusalem, renamed cities (Jerusalem became “Aelia Capitolina”; Shechem became “Neapolis”, and later “Nablus”), ethnically cleansed the indigenous Jews, and changed the name from Judea to Palestina in order to erase the heritage of the indigenous Jews in the land. 2:09 Wrong. Jesus was born in Bethlehem, a city in Judea, which would not have its name changed to Palestine for another 70 years. You are doing exactly as the Romans did by denying the indigenous heritage of the Jews and their presence in the land. This is what is known as ANTISEMITISM. And no, I am not calling you antisemitic because you are anti-Israel. I am calling you antisemitic because you are literally rewriting history to erase the Jews. 2:15 No, it makes him a Jew/Judean. 2:22 As a geographic term, not a nation, people, or political entity. 2:37 A geographic region. Still not a nation. Most western nations used that name because it was used by the Romans, who once again only used it to ethnically cleanse and erase the history of the indigenous Jews. 2:53 Here we really see how wrong the idea that Palestine was a nation is. Palestine was the name given to the mandate by the British for reasons already stated. “Palestinian" was an ethnically-neutral term used to describe anyone living in the Mandate of Palestine. In fact, it was more common for a Jew to be referred to as a “Palestinian” that for an Arab. Entities like the Palestinian Philharmonic and the Anglo-Palestine Bank were Jewish institutions, which would later become the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra and Bank Leumi respectively. 3:04 Yes, that is what the British Mandate was called. Your point? 3:17 Zionists are not colonialists. The Jews were indigenous to Judea. The Arab invaders who came from Arabia were colonialists because they colonized a land to which they were not indigenous. And at the time, there was no Palestinian identity, and geographic Palestine was sparsely populated, so the idea that it was a land without a people was not to far off. 3:27 So there was a Palestinian people? Well, since you haven’t told me anything about them yet, why don’t you do that now? 1) When was the country of Palestine founded and by whom? 2) What were its borders? 3) Where was its capital? 4) What were its major cities? 5) Name at least one Palestinian leader before Arafat. 6) What was the language of the country of Palestine? 7) What was the prevalent religion of the ancient country of Palestine? 8) What was its currency? 9) Since there is no such country of Palestine today, what caused its demise and when did it occur? 10) Why did the Palestinians never try to become independent until after the devastating defeat of invading Arab states in the 1967 Six Day War? 3:30 It is true that Zionists did expel Arabs in Palestine early on before Israel’s creation, but it did so completely legally. They bought the land legally from landlords at prices much higher than the land was actually worth. They had ownership of the land, so they could decide who stays on it. But I assume you are talking about the “Nakba” that occurred during the Israeli-Arab War of 1948. In most cases, invading Arab leaders told Palestinians to leave and promised that they could have everything back and more as soon as the Arab armies finished off all of the Jews. Of course, this did not happen, resulting in a large population of Palestinian refugees. Many Palestinians also just left to get away from the fighting, which was started by their own Arab leaders. It is true that some Palestinians were evicted by the Israeli Forces, which I will agree was wrong, but the fact is that is something that happens in war. However, this was not even the biggest refugee crisis resulting from the war. Approximately 700,000-800,000 Palestinians became refugees. Meanwhile, there were 800,000-1,000,000 Jewish refugees expelled from Islamic nations who had nowhere else to go but Israel. The combined total of land stolen from them was approximately equal to five times the size of Israel, so if you wanted all Palestinian Arabs to be able to return, the Arab world would also be obligated to give up five Israels for the Jews. The reason you don’t hear about this crisis is because Israel accepted them all into their nation. The Arab nations did not accept the Arab refugees, which is why their descendants are refugees to this day. The fact that you are holding Jews to a different standard than Arabs is antisemitism. Not to mention, that the Roman Empire, who you expressed support for earlier in this video, expelled and slaughtered the millions of indigenous Jews living in Judea. Once again, your lack of sympathy to this huge ethnic cleanse is antisemitism. 3:34 It didn’t have to be that way. Originally, there was a plan for the region to be shared, with Arab regions going towards the Palestinian Arabs and Jewish regions going towards Israel. Jews accepted this plan, while Palestinians did not because they were told by their Arab leaders that they would first expel the Jews so they could have it all. Huh, that’s strange. For some reason you are far more okay with the expulsion of Jews than Arabs. In addition, not all Arabs left. Many stayed, and they were given full citizenship and rights, such as the right to vote, which they exercised as early as the first Israeli election. I do recognize that Arabs in Israel do not have complete equality in society, which is wrong, but they are more free than Arabs anywhere else in the Middle East. Arabs in Israel today are doctors, lawyers, artists, policemen, soldiers, generals (yes, in the IDF), politicians, and even Supreme Court Justices, and, like I said, all Arabs who have chosen to accept Israeli citizenship have full suffrage.

[@ShnoogleMan]

3:43 And no Jewish refugees have been accepted back into the nations from which they are expelled. Again, you are holding Jews and Arabs to a different standard. 3:44 And there’s your answer. They did not take land from Palestine. They took it from Jordan. Although you could make the argument that Jordan is Palestine, since Jordan was the 70% of the Mandate of Palestine that was broken off and given to Arabs in the region so they could have their own state. But if that’s the case, then the Jordanians have so much other land. Also, Jordan did not give any rights to Palestinians during their occupation of the West Bank. 4:01 You’ve spent much of the first half of your video trying to rewrite history, which, like I said, was antisemitic. Not only did you attempt to rewrite history, but you attempted to erase a nation completely. That’s far worse than his arguable biased narrative of the events of the Six Day War. 4:08 True, but this was because Egypt was, a nation that had previously attempted to destroy Israel, was mobilizing on Israel’s border. It had formed an alliance with Syria, another nation that had previously tried to destroy Israel. Israel had a perfectly reasonable concern. Technically, even though they made the first strike, this strike was made in order to gain leverage over the future Egyptian attack. There still would have been a war, regardless of whether or not Israel attacked first. 4:30 True, but it certainly was a just cause as I just explained. Also a reminder that he was not the Prime Minister when the war was going on, so he can’t really speak for PM Levi Eshkol. Also, how many times are you guys gonna change your accents? 4:47 What he said is true, and I fail to see how what you said refutes that. 5:03 You are calling his video a propaganda video. While it is not perfect, your video has way more issues and biases (including antisemitism) which I already pointed out. 5:12 Well yeah, that’s because the Jordanian Arabs who attacked Israel were gun-toting Arabs hellbent on destroying Israel. That wasn’t a generalization of all Arabs. It was an accurate depiction of a few. 5:31 You’re accusing him of racism, yet you have used antisemitism many times throughout this video that I have already pointed out. 5:34 You mean like the way they treat Jews in the media in the Palestinian territories and many other Arab and Islamic nations? 5:39 And now you are pointing the finger at European antisemites, while, like I said, they depict Jews like that mainstream to this day in Islamic nations, and you have been antisemitic this whole video. You are the pot calling the kettle black. 5:51 Because the Jews were a powerless minority at the time. Arabs have held power ever since they invaded the rest of the Middle East and North Africa from Arabia. You have to be a total moron to not see the difference. 5:53 But nothing on the stereotypes of Jews in the Islamic world? And, like I said, that was not a stereotype. That was an accurate depiction of the invading Jordanian army, not a generalization of Arabs as a whole. Well, this video was a load of bullshit. It’s gonna take a lot of bleach to clean it all out of me.

She talks all about other groups that referred to the land as Palestine, but doesn’t actually talk about the actual historical nation of Palestine itself. You calling my argument a straw man still doesn’t mean there was ever a nation known as Palestine. Citation needed. 3- When she says “what are we, in the matrix?”, that is a sarcastic answer to the idea that she straight up doesn’t exist. I suppose it was unnecessary to refute, as it was clearly sarcasm, but I decided to anyway because it was a stupid use of it. 4- My point is that she is taking way to long to get to the punch of what she is discussing. She is wasting time on sarcasm rather than discussing information. 5- I’m not. I’m laughing my ass off at your stupidity. 6- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Israel_(united_monarchy) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Israel_(Samaria) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Judah en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hasmonean_dynasty en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herodian_kingdom And if you want a source that gives basically the entire history of the Land of Israel en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Israel There.

And if you really have a problem with Wikipedia, then why don’t you just look at the listed sources at the bottom of the page? 7- The Philistines became extinct after the Assyrian and Babylonian invasions. Philistines were not Arabs like the Palestinians today, and they were not even an indigenous Semitic people.

That’s a fact, not an opinion. In addition, there were no more Canaanite peoples at that time within what was considered the land of Israel. Historians believe that the Canaanites became part of the Israelite population, and it is likely that the Israelites themselves were simply Canaanites who revolted. 10- The Jews are an ethnoreligious group describing those who lived in ancient Judea and their descendants who still practice their culture. And remember, there was no Palestinian identity at the time. Therefore, Jesus was not a Palestinian. 11- My comment was a negative statement. Therefore, the burden of proof lies on you. Why don’t you prove to me that there was a Palestinian nation. 12- Burden of proof relies on you. 13- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_Philharmonic_Orchestra en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bank_Leumi For the rest of this, the burden of proof relies on you. 14- Citation needed. 15- The Zionist movement predates the UN. As already established, since the Jews were there first, which any historical timeline will tell you, they are by definition not colonizers. And yes, Arabs invaded in the seventh century during the Islamic invasions. It feels like anyone who knows any basic world history should know this. Jews are from Judea, Arabs are from Arabia. But I suppose you are rather uneducated, so allow me to provide a source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_Muslim_conquests 16- Okay a- Wow, well look at that, you just countered your previous point by admitting that the Arabs were invaders. b- Prior to the Israeli return, there was no country called Palestine, merely a geographic region and a British Mandate. And prior to the British Mandate, the land was ruled by the Ottoman Turks. So why don’t you please give me a source to when there actually was a nation known as Palestine. c- Same response as answer b. d- Same response as answers b and c. c- Well, it looks like you repeated a letter here. I am saying this because Arafat was one of the first big Palestinian nationalist leaders (although he was actually Egyptian) and at the time of this Palestine was not an independent nation because the land was known as Israel by this time. Therefore, if Palestine preceded Israel, then there must be more Palestinian leaders before him. e- If the national language was Arabic, then there would have to be a nation known as Palestine between the times of the Islamic Invasion and modern Israel. I cannot seem to find such a nation during that time period in my research. May you provide a source/citation please? f- What do you mean “what timeline”? There are no alternative dimensions, only one timeline of history. Unless, I suppose, you are referring to time period. In that case, give the various ancient religions of Palestine whenever they existed. g- Same basic response as to answer f but with currency instead of religion. h- Palestine is not a country today because the land currently belongs to Israel. Therefore, the country must have had some sort of demise that allowed it to fall to Israel, as well as the Brits and the Ottomans before them. i- So what? If Palestine was a nation, you would have thought its nationalist movement would occur much sooner. 17- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestinian_refugees en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1948_Palestine_war www.quora.com/Did-Arab-newspapers-in-1948-threaten-Palestinians-with-violence-if-they-didnt-leave-Israel-before-the-Arabs-attacked en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_exodus_from_Arab_and_Muslim_countries 18- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Partition_Plan_for_Palestine en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_citizens_of_Israel en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_citizens_of_Israel#Civil_rights en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_supporters_of_Israel The funny thing is that I had to look up what hasbra is since I’ve seen the term before but I didn’t actually know what it meant. I have refuted your claims as to my usage of straw man arguments, clearly my "red herrings" were legitimate because you failed to convincingly refute them, and best of all I showed how ignorant you are on basic world history, such as the Israelite kingdoms, the assumption that the Philistines are the same people as the modern Palestinians, the Judean revolts, the Arab invasions, and the apparent lack of a nation known as “Palestine” at any point in history. Now I'd like to see you refute my arguments on the rest of the video.

[@enoughie]

HAHAHA. This video is hilarious. Especially the parts where they try to rewrite history and convince you that there really was a State of Palestine. So let's look at some of the crap they said here: @ 2:06 - "...and that was BC, Before Christ. A man you may have heard of.. Born in Bethlehem, a city in PALESTINE. Wait a minute, does that make Jesus a Palestinian?" Funny, because Matthew 2:1 says: "After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in JUDEA, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem." Hmmm, JUDEA. Where have I heard this name before. (Also, we really have to remind you that Jesus was a JEW?!) Let's move on. @ 2:18 - "Immediate after the 7th Century, after Palestine became predominantly Arab..." And how exactly did "Palestine" become predominantly Arab? Because it was CONQUERED, OCCUPIED, and COLONIZED by Arab Muslims. However, at no point before, during, or after the Arab Muslim invasion has there been a Palestinian State, nor has there been an Arab state whose capital was in that land. Jews, however, did have national sovereignty in Israel for HUNDREDS OF YEARS, and going back over 3,000 years. @ 3:05 - Sharon holds a "State of Palestine" birth certificate?! Who are you trying to fool? Sharon was born in 1928, during the British Mandate of Palestine. And what was the PURPOSE of the British Mandate, as set by the League of Nations: "establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, it being clearly understood that nothing should be done which might prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine" You read that? "existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine" - nothing about Palestinian People, or a State of Palestine. That's no coincidence. That's because there was no State of Palestine, and there was no Palestinian People. There were Arabs who lived in Palestine, but they were definitely not a People, and they certainly never had a state of their own. @ 3:25 "Palestine existed, and Palestinians - yes, a People - lived in it. That is until Zionists expelled and forcibly displaced Palestinians and created Israel." Actually, you're forgetting the little inconvenient fact that Palestinians STARTED A (CIVIL) WAR against Jews in 1947 (after Palestinians REJECTED the UN partition plan), and it was the RESULT of that war that 750,000 Palestinians were expelled. Palestinians have no one to blame but themselves. Another inconvenient fact for you to remember: Arabs expelled 850,000+ Jews from Arab countries around that time, and today more than 60% of Israeli Jews are descendants of REFUGEES from Arab countries. Arabs STOLE and CONFISCATED from Jews 100,000 sq. kilometers of property. For comparison, the whole state of Israel (including the occupied territories) is about 27,000 sq. kilometers. So do the math of who's the victim and who's the aggressor here. And finally this: @ 5:35 - "Not too long ago in Europe, Jews were depicted as evil creatures, with long noses, conspiring to take over the world..." And today we see these same caricatures throughout the Middle East on DAILY BASIS. Just look here: archive.adl.org/Anti_semitism/arab/cartoon_arab_press_080702.asp @ 5:45 - "Such anti-semitic caricatures were used to dehumanize and vilify Jews. We all know what happened then." Who are you kidding? Even today, 40% of Arabs in Israel claim the Holocaust never happened (see here: www.haaretz.com/news/poll-40-of-israeli-arabs-believe-holocaust-never-happened-1.276190). @ 5:58 - "So the stereotypes perpetuated by you and the government of Israel are unacceptable and morally reprehensible." Cry me a river.

[@akharbat]

Well within your infinitely long comment you confirmed more than once that there was Palestinian people living before Israel is being established. But anyway , regardless to the labels.. my questions is: which right did the British have to take this land from the "people" who lived on it, and give it to the Jews?

[@sugarhitman]

ahmad kharbat Because those people were mainly religious foreign immigrants, who already had states and countries. Thats why the British decided to create a Jewish national home in Palestine, for a people who didnt have a state nor a country. "The inhabitants of Palestine are composed of a large number of elements, **differing widely in ethnological affinities, language and religion**. It may be interesting to mention, as an illustration of their **heterogeneousness**, that early in the 20th century a list of no less than **fifty languages**, spoken in Jerusalem as vernaculars, was there drawn up by a party of men whose various official positions enabled them to possess accurate information on the subject.1 It is therefore no easy task to write concisely and at the same time with sufficient fullness on the ethnology of Palestine...." 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica There were people living in Palestine, but they were mostly people from other parts of the world, and were not Palestinians...or the indigenous people of Palestine. The only people who are the indigenous people of Palestine are the Jews, and Samaritans.

[@akharbat]

Mike The diversity among Palestinian people and whether they were religious or not are totally irrelevant facts. The descendants of those lived in Palestine since capturing Jerusalem from the Crusaders in the 12th century are not immigrants. It's those who were recently brought illegally to Palestine on "the Exodus ship". The population of Palestine in 1948 was about 2 million people from three different religions. Almost half of the population was expelled by the occupation war you mentioned earlier. Which means those religious diverse people had something in common that made them refuse the illegal immigration and partitioning; they had nationality in common even if Palestine was not recognized as a state by the UN back then. The British simply did not have the right to create a national home for Jews by taking someone else's property. The fact that Jews had lived there 4000 years ago does not justify creating a home for them now by taking someone else's home.

[@enoughie]

"within your infinitely long comment you confirmed more than once that there was Palestinian people living before Israel is being established." The length of my comment was in direct proportion to the amount of deceit and disinformation in the video. But still, there were no "Palestinian People." The term Palestinian referred to Arabs and (European) Jews alike - for example, the Palestine Post newspaper and the Bank of Palestine were both Jewish institutions. Even in 1947 there were "Palestinian Jews" and "Palestinian Arabs." Just like the 1947 UN Partition Plan called to establish a "Jewish State" and an "ARAB State." Not a "Jewish State" and "Palestinian State." Nor did the Partition Plan ever mention "Palestinian People." In fact, the UN Partition Plan did not mention a "Palestinian People" even ONCE! (See here: unispal.un.org/unispal.nsf/0/7F0AF2BD897689B785256C330061D253) It talks about "Palestinian citizens" who are Jewish or Arab. ""But anyway , regardless to the labels.. my questions is: which right did the British have to take this land from the "people" who lived on it, and give it to the Jews?"" Let's get this fact straight: the British did not take the land from "the "people" who lived on it" - they took the land from those who had the SOVEREIGNTY over the land, which is the Ottoman Empire, after their victory in WWI. And that was only after the Triple Entente repeatedly pleaded with the Ottomans NOT to join the war. So during WWI the British promised to give sovereignty over the lands of the Ottoman Empire to the Arabs and the Jews (because they helped Britain in the war effort). This commitment was later reaffirmed by the League of Nations. ARABS received about 99% of the lands of the former Ottoman Empire, and Jews received less than 1% of the land. The League of Nations also reaffirmed the historic connection of the Jewish People to their ancestral homeland in Palestine. The Arab delegation (which represented the Palestinian Arabs as well, since Palestinian Arabs were not a People distinct from the rest of the Arab Nation) to the 1919 Paris Peace Conference had this to say about Zionist demands for the whole of Palestine: "We Arabs... look with the deepest sympathy on the Zionist movement. Our deputation here in Paris is fully acquainted with the proposals submitted yesterday by the Zionist Organisation to the Peace Conference, and we regard them as MODERATE and PROPER." - Emir Faisal I Now, if there was any injustice in dividing the lands of the former Ottoman Empire, it was not toward the Arabs (who received 99% of the land). After all, even the Arabs of Palestine were guaranteed to have FULL RIGHTS in the Jewish Homeland, as is stated in the British Balfour Declaration: "His Majesty's government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine..." No. Those who suffered the most (and suffer to this day) from the distribution of former Ottoman territories are the KURDISH PEOPLE! Because Kurdistan - about 400,000 sq. km (compared to the mere 27,000 sq km of Israel) - was given to the ARABS, the Turks and the Persians. In fact, Kurds today are the largest nation (40 million people) who still lives under FOREIGN OCCUPATION! As an occupied nation you would think the Kurds would be sympathetic to Palestinians, who are also occupied. No? Well, the fact is that Kurds sympathize with ISRAEL! Because they are well aware of Arab hypocrisy and oppression. So my question to you is, why this double standard? Why does everyone talk about the rights of Palestinians but no one is talking about the rights of Kurds? Well, the more you research about the Middle East, its politics and history, the more you'd realize that the Palestinian issue is not what Arabs and Muslims would want you to believe. It is not about freedom, it is not about justice, and it is not about ending occupation (fact is, more than 80% of Palestinians say they would rather NOT have an end to occupation, NOT have an independent State, and NOT have peace with Israel, if the alternative is that the Jewish State is not destroyed - see here: The Secret Palestinians Don't Want You To Know...).

[@akharbat]

Jeorge Enoughie"Even in 1947 there were Palestinian Jews and Palestinian Arabs." I'm glad your confirming that. One correction though, Arabia is a REGION.. Judaism is a RELIGION. Palestinians (Jews, Muslims, and Christians) are mostly ARABS in ethnicity. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_groups So those Arab Palestinians from different religions used to live in peace, until Israeli-planned immigrations from allover the world started to flow illegally to Palestine. Combined with military force and under British supervision they started to force people out and specially those who fight back, demolish or takeover their homes and just have their own settlements. This is not a fair dividing or partitioning between inhabitants. This is an occupation. "So during WWI the British promised to give sovereignty over the lands of the Ottoman Empire to the Arabs and the Jews" This is simply not true. It was promised to Israeli Zionists. Before talking about our double standards and steer the conversation to the Kurds. Please take a look within your own people and let me know why True Torah Jews are against Israel. The more research you do the more you realize that Israel is a secular nazi government that practices all kinds of discrimination and war crimes. It is the source of all double standards and deception in this world. And most importantly it does not represent the Jewish people!!

[@uribarel]

Lets start with - What is "Palestine" you guys talking about? Does anyone ever heard about "Palestine as a nation" before 1948 or 1967?? By the way... "Palestine" its not even arabian name, its a Romans name since they occipite the middle east. More then that, before 1948 the British ruled the place before the Ottoman and before that the Greeks and before that the Romans and before that was the kingdom of Judah (it is also written in the Qur'an) So where or when exactly was a Palestinian state? And this means that the Arabs lived there illegally. the fact is "Palestinian nation" never existed. its abiggest lie of the modern history. period. Only ignorant can deny.

What a childish and vulgar video. First - the language used by the ladys presenting their claims is offensive and agressive. Second - They do not answer any claims made by Danny Ayalon but rather trying to evade them by offering evasive answers to real questions. For instance - They didn't answer the question ever did a state named "Palestine" existed? Rather she looked for references to the name Philistine (Filistine - The Philistines (/ˈfɪlɨstiːnz/, /ˈfɪlɨstaɪnz/, /fɨˈlɪstɨnz/, or /fɨˈlɪstiːnz/;[1] Hebrew: פְּלִשְׁתִּים, Plištim), Pleshet or Peleset, were a people who as part of the Sea Peoples appeared in the southern coastal area of Canaan at the beginning of the Iron Age. See wikipedia) No one argues the Philistines existed, but they were no Arab Muslims and there is no genetical historical or any connection between the historical Philistines and the people calling themselves "palestinians" today. Then - the historical name Philistine itself comes from the Hebrew (Jewish language) Pleshet - meaning a (coastal) palin... So the name comes from Hebrew and not from the language "palestinians" supposedly would use to name themselves... Weird isn't it? Third - They totally ignored the Jewish states that existed on that land for hundreds of centuries. Forth - Totally ignored the fact that Rome have devastated the Jewish state and exiled the Jewish people renaming the name of the land from Israel into palestine (after the ancient Philistines) as punishment for the Jews for rebelling against the Romans. (BTW - Where were the "palestinians" in that rebellion? nobody knows...) And then - "Jesus was "palestinian", I mean, come on... he was Jewish. And so on and so forth...

First - the Stereotype Pictures of Arabs as Gun toting fanatics shooting stupidly in the air IS the OFFENSIVE attitude. Second - you stupid ,of course there wasn't a state in the modern day definition that was called Palestine ! because the Palestinians were under constant OCCUPATION ! for Example the Irish people were occupied for 800 by the English , and there was no Irish state , does that mean the Irish People are Imaginary !? The Ukrainians for example gained their independence in 1991!! and declared their state then , does that mean that before that they were imaginary people and they don't have the right to their lands ? having no state doesn't deprive people from their right to their land , its as if you are saying because Palestinians , (who lived for thousands of years here) didn't have an independent state , its okay to bring people from overseas and steal their lands ! And BTW Danny in 0:53 was saying , I quote : "In 1967 There was no Palestinian "NATION" or state, he was not just asking if there was a state , he was inclining there was no such thing as Palestinians , so the Ladies didn't evade the Question they were confirming that there are people called Palestinians by confirming that this Area was called Philistia , and these people were named after it ! like English after the region England , French after the region France , Scottish after the region SCOTLAND ! & when you said : "no genetical historical or any connection between the historical Philistines and the people calling themselves "palestinians" today." Are you an anthropologist who we don't know about ? How come the EUROPEAN jews who came from overseas and different continents, are the real people of these lands , and the Canaanite Palestinians are not , thats Hilarious ! also when you said : "the historical name Philistine itself comes from the Hebrew (Jewish language) Pleshet - meaning a (coastal) palin... So the name comes from Hebrew and not from the language "palestinians" supposedly would use to name themselves... Weird isn't it?" Pleshet(Hebrew) is a translation of the word Philistia(Greek) , its not Hebrew LOL ! only a translation ! Third - "They totally ignored the Jewish states that existed on that land for hundreds of centuries." And you totally ignored that these "Jewish states" were established after the Exodus of the Israelites from EGYPT and CONQUERING the land of Canaan ! My source is from your own holy books , "THE BOOK OF JOSHUA" which is all about how the Israelis started their conquest in the land of Canaan and Defeated their "enemies" there( Obviously indicates that there were other people whom they fought :D ) . Fourth - Totally ignored the fact that Rome have devastated the Jewish state and exiled the Jewish people renaming the name of the land from Israel into palestine (after the ancient Philistines) as punishment for the Jews for rebelling against the Romans. (BTW - Where were the "palestinians" in that rebellion? nobody knows...) HAHA you answered yourself , the greeks named it after its original name ! i quote you : (after the ancient Philistines) , and i add Philistines date back to 1175BCE , which means before kingdom of Judah in 750BCE !

[@Masria94]

It's vulgar??? Did you see how offensive was the original video?? The romans did not rename Israel!! They merged the two provinces together see wikipedia. «Philistine» is a semetic word, known not only in hebrew but also by ancient egyptian and assyrian. Arabic is a semitic language also by the way. Also arabs are not a race, they are an ethnic group. Which means that the people of Palestine became arab when they converted to islam exactly like the Egyptians, Syrians, Libyans, Moroccans did. And Jesus was born the west bank, he spoke aramaic (a semetic language that is NOT hebrew). Please try the understand the difference between, nationality, language and religion. You guys often mix all of these things.

[@sugarhitman]

Masria94 The Romans renamed Israel as Palestine, a name the Greeks also used as Palestine, as an affront to the Jews, who were hated by both the Romans and the Greeks. The Egyptians were not Semitic speakers, and the word Palestine as used by the Greeks and Romans was borrowed from the Hebrew word....not the Egyptians. Jesus identified Himself as a Jew in the book of John to a Samaritan women...and the West Bank in Jesus' day was called Judea. The Hebrews, including Jesus, spoke Aramaic, Hebrew, and Greek. The Philistines were not Semites, and nor are todays Palestinian Arabs, Philistines...and nor were Jesus and the Jews Arabs....and most Jews resisted conversion to either Islam or Christianity....converting Jews is one of the most hardest thing to do, as they are quite stubborn people...as Prophet Mohammad even noted in the Koran and Hadiths. So most Palestinian Arabs are just that....Arabs.

[@BasharA301]

Mike they didn't name it as affront to the Jews , they named after its original name Philistia after the Philistines who inhabited the lands in 1175BCE before the kingdom of Judah 750BCE :) , and i think +Arab Souri in his debates debunked your lies that Palestinians are only "JUSt Arabs" & proven to you that studies have shown that they are the true inhabitants of this area....

[@sugarhitman]

Bashar Ahmaro The Philistines' territory in what was then Canaan was limited to Gaza. The Greeks had a habit of denying that the Jews even existed, due to the Greek-Jewish conflict. This habit is confirmed by Josephus himself who wrote about it in "Against Apion". The Romans, after massacring the Jews, also sought to erase the history of the Jews, by renaming their capital, and their land as Palestine. And as for the claim that I was refuted by Arab Souri that Palestinian Arabs are only Arabs....did I not quote the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica, which showed that the population of Palestine was mixed? Here, I shall quote it yet again: "The inhabitants of Palestine are composed of a large number of elements, differing widely in ethnological affinities, language and religion. It may be interesting to mention, as an illustration of their heterogeneousness, that early in the 20th century a list of no less than fifty languages, spoken in Jerusalem as vernaculars, was there drawn up by a party of men whose various official positions enabled them to possess accurate information on the subject.1 It is therefore no easy task to write concisely and at the same time with sufficient fullness on the ethnology of Palestine.... There are very large contingents from the Mediterranean countries, especially Armenia, Greece and Italy, principally engaged in trade. The extraordinary development of Jewish colonization has since 1870 effected a revolution in the balance of population in some parts of the country, notably in Jerusalem.... Turkoman settlements in the Jaulan, a number of Persians, and a fairly large Afghan colony that since 1905 has established itself in Jaffa. The Mutawileh (Motawila), who form the majority of the inhabitants of the villages north-west of Galilee, are probably long-settled immigrants from Persia. Some tribes of Kurds live in tents and huts near Lake Huleh. If the inmates of the countless monastic establishments be excluded, comparatively few from northern or western Europe will remain: the German "Templar" colonies being perhaps the most important.... There must also be mentioned a Bosnian colony established at Caesarea Palestina, and the Circassian settlements placed in certain centres of Eastern Palestine by the Turkish government in order to keep a restraint on the Bedouin: the latter are also found in Galilee. There was formerly a large Sudanese and Algerian element in the population of some of the large towns, but these have been much reduced in numbers since the beginning of the 20th century: the Algerians however still maintain themselves in parts of Galilee...."~1911 Encyclopedia Britannica "Palestine" Those are your Palestinian people, who were not, and are not Palestinians. However, after the massive immigration of Arabs during the British Mandate, most Palestinians are now Arabs.

[@GhostNameless]

*Read this for truth:* Skip to the end for the conclusion if you don't want to read this boredom. The real question is: are the Palestinians and the biblical Philistines the same peoples? Either way, the land does not belong to them. Canaanites are the original owners of the land. The ancient Israelites conquered them and enslaved them. Many of them were absorbed into the Israelites and other nations. They don't exist anymore, so the second in line of succession are the Israelites. But wait. There's some interesting info here. Where do the Israelites come from? They were the descendants of the twelve tribes of Israel. Israel is the second name of Jacob. Jacob is the grandson of Abraham. Abraham was born in the city Ur Kaśdim (Iraq). So, the Israelites originally come from Iraq. But the Palestinians still don't own the land. Keep reading. Where do the Palestinians come from? Depends on whether you believe they are Philistines or not. According to the bible, the Philistines came from the sea, the Island of Crete. According to DNA evidence, they have strong connection to Crete, Greece, Sardinia and other parts of south Europe. So if the Palestinians believe the bible and they believe that they are the Philistines, they should claim Crete as their homeland, which is a lot larger than the west bank and Gaza combined, has good farm land, good weather, has no enemy neighbors and has more access to sea. Also, the Philistines only settled in the Gaza strip, not in the west bank and not in the rest of Israel. According to the bible and many historians, the Philistines were absorbed into the Assyrian and the Babylonian empires after they both conquered the kingdom of Israel and Judah and then the Philistines got extinct, while the exiled Jews kept their identity and culture thanks to their religion. But I doubt they are Philistines. Because of DNA evidence, different language, different religion and no archaeological connection. Where did they come from then? Some suggested that the Palestinians are Canaanites. Unfortunately for them, there is nothing significant to back that up. The Canaanite language and culture is a lot closer to the ancient Hebrews. All evidence, DNA, archaeological discoveries and ancient transcripts point that the Palestinians are descendants of Arabs. The same Arab Caliphates that invaded the whole middle east (including Spain and even parts of India later on) during the 7th century. You can read the Origins section of the Palestinians wiki page. The "Pre-Arab/Islamic Influences" and "Canaanism" claims are very weak. But the Arab connection is very strong. Many Palestinian families can trace their origins back to tribes in the Arabian peninsula who settled the area after the Muslim conquest. DNA evidence shows that there is strong connection between the Jews and the Palestinians. If most of the Palestinians are indeed Arabs, then the Bible confirms the connection. Many Arab Muslims believe that they are descendants of Abraham and his son Ishmael. The Jews believe it too. But Ishmael and his mother were banished far north so they no longer have the right for the land. The 12 sons of Jacob (Israel) moved to Egypt because of drought. The 12 tribes became slaves in Egypt. Meanwhile, the Philistines moved from Crete to the Gaza strip. And then the tribes united and returned from Egypt and formed the Israelite kingdom which later split into Israel and Judah, until the Assyrians and the Babylonians invaded and exiled them (including the Philistines). The Palestinians claim that the Jews are just European invaders. But obviously, the Jews were exiled to Europe long time ago after the second temple was destroyed by the Romans. The first and the second temples were destroyed by Assyrians ad Babylonians. King Cyrus of Persia defeated Babylon and allowed the Jews to return to their home. They built the second temple. Greeks invaded them. Greeks lost in the end. Romans invaded them. Romans won (during the emperor Titus), which led to large emigration. The wiki page "Jewish diaspora" explains how a lot of Jews got to Europe. Hadrian, another Roman emperor, crushed the Jewish rebellion and changed the name of the region to Syria Palestina to punish the Jews. He also changed the name of Jerusalem. But my humble, personal guess is that the new name just didn't catch up. Many centuries later, the British called this region Palestine. The rise of Palestinian nationalism started that time. But a Palestinian nation or country never existed in ancient times. It was always a province or a region. Imagine if some people of Norway, Sweden and Finland will demand a new country called Lapland. 1:09 The woman asked if she, as a Palestinian does not exist. But that is not what Danny Ayalon said. There is a time manipulation in her words: He said such country or a nation did not exist (IN THE PAST), but now Palestinians do exist because new nations are being born every century. So if she was born 200 years ago, she would not exist as a Palestinian - she would most likely exist as an Arab or Ottoman. 1:39 She was telling the truth that Palestine was a region. Herodotus and Aristotle did mention Palestine, but AS A REGION. They did not mention a country or a nation. The oldest year that she mentioned was 484 BCE, but she wouldn't dare to mention that the kingdom of Judah was destroyed by Babylon way earlier in 586 BCE. Conclusion: if the Palestinians are the biblical Philistines, then Crete is their land. If the Palestinians are Arabs, then their land is Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Syria, Jordan and so on... But if they are Canaanites - the land is theirs, but they will have to bring some really hard proof, which they can't.

Small correction: The first temple was destroyed by the Babylonians. Ignore the Assyrians. They conquered the kingdom of Israel, while the temple was in Jerusalem which was part of the kingdom of Judah.

Is it possible for a country or independent state to exist, without ever having an acknowledged form of government no armies - no definded borders - no date of inception - no historical events - no language particular to that country = no recognized leader such as a king or a president - fought no wars - had no currency - had no official relationship, treaty, or pact with any other country - no artifacts ever unearthed - no documentation ever discovered where any country in the world ever made any reference - no flag - no architecture - no forefathers, etc. If all this is possible, then ok, maybe there did exist at some point in time somewhere in the world an Arab Palestinian country or independent state with no constitution, no leader, no borders, no government, no national language, no claim to any historic event, no currency - - - - very bizarre.

[@lscottschlager2147]

@@malcolmtyler1673 At the risk of sounding like I'm ranting, I would humbly like to make a couple of points. You state that Muslims, Christians, and Jews lived in Palestine (co-existence) for 'many centuries'. After WWI and the Ottoman Empire crumbled, and new Arab countries were created, Great Britain was given the mandate over the last sliver of land left and referred to the land as Palestine. Looking at a time line, I would not refer to the end of WW1 up to the present as 'many centuries' - a minor point and maybe we're just talking semantics. I would also beg you to allow me this liberty. You use the phrase 'Zionists arrived....'. Just so no one who reads this falls under any misconceptions, archaeologists barely had to scrape the surface of the ground to uncover proof of a Jewish presence that has existed in that corner of the world dating back to the time of Joshua and in fact, the 3rd time in history that there has been an independent 'Zionist' state under a government/rule of self determination (remember - Judaism is a nationality, not a religion in the modern interpretation). Which brings me to my final and main point. You accuse the Zionists of attempting to destroy co-existence, and like any honors student who graduated from the Arab School of Debate, you're careful not to present any point to explain just how or what the Zionists have done to destroy this co-existence leaving me no alternative then to assume you feel the Zionists are destroying the co-existence simply by returning home. Opinions and accusations are your own. The truth shall set you free and here is the truth - after WW1, the powers that be - powers who had authority or a say in the land such as Great Britain, the League of Nations, the United Nations, etc. - decided in their infinite wisdom to partition this sliver of land and give some of it, in the 1st proposal about 80%, to the Palestinian Arabs for the creation of a new Arab state, and the rest of the land (without Jerusalem) to the Palestinian Jews (yes, from the end of WW1 up until May of 1948, the Jews living on this sliver of land were also known as Palestinians) for the re-establishment of a Jewish state. Over approximately a 50 year period, there were 5 separate proposals to create a Jewish state and an Arab state. 5 times, David Ben Gurion and the 'Zionists' accepted the proposal and said yes, we will live in co-existence along side our Arab brothers. 5 times the Arabs said 'no', the land is ours and we will accept no proposal of partition in any form. Am I missing something here? Didn't you state that it is the 'Zionists' who would try to destroy the co-existence? Although it's not my place to dictate how you should respond, I will mention that when you do, it will be exceedingly difficult for me to have any respect for you or your opinions/accusations with no substantiated point of fact. I'm going to watch The Three Stooges (more Jews) but will check back tomorrow. Thanks, Scott

By closing the Strait of Tiran, Egypt was in direct violation and provocation of the ceasefire, hence presenting a casus belli for Israel to preemptive attack. There was a peacekeeping mission dispatched to Egypt by the UNEF before Israel responded militarily. The representatives were expelled, and a strong Egyptian military presence was instituted at Sharm el-Sheikh. Armed retaliation and opening hostilities are legitimate defensive tactics. Israel was well within her rights. They point out that Israel was founded on injustices like the displacement of Arabs in 1948, but omitted the fact that Jews were also displaced by Jordan...
