@xjsk88 - Israel was a country (kingdom) in 1300 bc - BEFORE there were any Arabs there, BEFORE Islam was invented... At that time - Israel was settled by Jews, Jerusalem was the capital city of Israel, and Kind David and King Solomon were two Jewish Israeli kings who were living in Jerusalem. You should learn the history of Israel in ancient times... it's very interesting.

[@ofri75]

@videobyredjade - there were many Italian countries (Venece, Rome, Napoly) before Italy got united - it's a different story.. Also - there was the Roman empire - they were the ancestors of the Italians today. Palestinians are Arabs.. Arabs = people from Arab paninsula. Vast majority of them immigrated from Arab countries and settled in Israel, after the Arab occupation in the 6 and 7 century, and in the 19 -20 century, when there were no borders there.

[@ofri75]

@SupplantThis - Jews didn't "steal" palestine, because it was a Jewish land. Israel was a kingdon in 1300bc... Jewish people simply returned to their own homeland.

[@MartyMolloy]

@DavidL999 Well he should. He grew up there. Actually that's a Protestant Dublin accent. It's a wonderfully Irish observation that most Irish Jews sound like Protestants. :) Hardly surprisingly as most of them would have gone to non-Catholic schools and picked up their posh vernacular. :)

Nonsense. It's educated 1940s and 1950s Dublin English: Charles Haughey, Garret Fitzgerald etc all spoke with the same excellent enunciation. Children of all backgrounds were explicitly taught eloquence and precision in pronunciation, and then left those schools to flourish in the workplace where their polished, impressive pronunciation clearly conveyed respect, effort and accuracy. The same holds for any grammar school boy or girl in Britain in the same period: they take positive pride in the way in which this conscious acquisition of clear, prestigious pronunciation helped them up the socio-economic ladder, despite many coming directly from disadvantage. I know a Jag-driving RP speaker, retired from success in business, who delights in seeing how his classic BBC pronunciation impresses people, and then reveals his not-so-rosy childhood in '40s and '50s East End London. It was this type of school that directly and explicitly taught him all this, a million miles from how English was spoken at home and around him. If this sort of skill was explicitly fostered in schools again, youngsters would find doors open to them easier, no matter how much we might pooh-pooh it.

@@londoncalling151 Fitzgerald conceivably had a similar accent but Charles Haughey's pompous tones were nothing like that. His was a curious "faux-culchie" accent, no doubt cultivated to appeal to the Irish common man, famously described as the sort of person who "has his dinner in the middle of the day". There is no single "Dublin accent". There are a spectrum of accents in the Irish capital, and at the extremes are both hideous. The harshest working class accent in which spurious extra syllables are inserted into vowel sounds and many consonants are dropped (eg "Goin' dowin towin on the Dar' from Booherstowin") is exceeded only in discordant horror by the upper middle class whine variously and erroneously described as the D4 or Dort accent "Gaying dine tine on the Dort from Beeterstine" In between either extreme there are some very pleasant variants of English, in many ways the nicest of which is that typically spoken by former pupils of the likes of Wesley College, St Columba's, and High School. Not all pupils of these "protestant ethos" schools were Protestants. Some were Jews and quite a lot were Catholics but the accent that typified those schools, while essentially a middle-class one, tended to indicate that someone was of Protestant background. Or Jewish :) A more recent example of a prominent person with that accent is the Jewish former Justice Minister Alan Shatter. Now a lot of people thought Shatter usually spoke a lot of nonsense. But he did speak it very nicely.

A) Those lands where the native people spoke Semitic languages - Coptic speakers in Egypt, Berber speakers in Morrocco, Assyrian speakers in Syria - ended up switching to Arabic (another Semitic language) over a period of time as well as converting to Islam. B) The people who didn't speak Semitic languages, such as Turks (Altaic) and Persians (Indo-European) converted to Islam but kept their native languages, albeit with many Arabic loan-words and the Arabic script.

Herzog is The man

[@DavidL999]

@JiMMyMooReHouse Haha, ya something of a middle class Dublin accent. Fantastic speaker though!

[@Sangrenegra9]

Clarification: by 'Assyrian' I am referring to Syriac rather than Akkadian.

[@DRMMRI14]

Do you know where I can find the full video footage of this speech?

[@highlands]

@BogusDonut No worries, I always feel a little pressured to keep comments short on KZbin so it's easy to confuse the intended message.

[@videobyredjade]

@ofri75 There was no 'Italy' until 1861 - do you also deny there are people called Italians?

[@kobi1974]

@jeddahsub What is the Jewish faith?

[@highlands]

@yotamSchwartz I think what he meant was that 'zionists' is used as a codeword for 'jews' by many antisemites, although he could very well just be nuts.

[@pittbull226]

this like many ruling before it gone hidden.but how long

[@willyfargo]

A Historical Moment in 1975 UN General Assembly. Pls listen carefully to what the U.S. representative had to say !

[@videobyredjade]

@ofri75 sorry - it is you that does not understand the english language. Saying Palestinians are Arabs is like saying French are Europeans - of course Palestinians are Arabs, so are Egyptians and Syrians and so on. You are mixing up words to deceive people of the meaning of those words. You seem to think that being clever with the language you can erase history and the existence of people. Someone else tried to do that, too.

[@motorhead6763]

Judaism is not a "race"? How is it then racism?

[@ofri75]

@xjsk88 - Palestinian never "owned" Israel. There was NEVER any Palestinian country in the 5000 years of history - FACT. There were two cases of a Jewish country: First was in ancient times, in 1300bc (kingdom, and the first three kings were Shaul, David, and Solomon), and the 2nd time Israel was formed as a country was in the 20 century, in 1948. If u ignore the reality its your problem...but please stay out of things that u have no business in... you don't belong to Israel. Thank you!

[@JiMMyMooReHouse]

haha he has an irish accent!
