Will THIS End the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict?

The 2020 peace agreement between Israel and Bahrain, the UAE, Morocco, and Sudan led to massive economic, educational, and cultural exchange. But what if normalizing ties with Israel could benefit Palestinians as well? Though many Palestinians feel abandoned by Arab governments who are supporting peace with Israel, some see the Accords as a path to ending the Israeli-Palestinian conflict once and for all.

About Explainers: From ancient Jewish traditions to the modern State of Israel, we explain it all. Diving into anything and everything related to Jewish culture, history, and even religion.
Understand Jewish holidays, Israeli politics, Jewish diasporic communities, and more. Learn about Judaism in pop culture, debunking myths about Jews, and explore obscure Israeli landmarks. We’re asking questions as basic as “What is the Talmud?”, and as obscure as “How did hip-hop boost Kosher wine sales?”, and everything in between.
About Unpacked: We provide nuanced insights by unpacking all things Jewish. People are complex and complicated - yet we’re constantly being pushed to oversimplify our world. At Unpacked we know that being complex makes us more interesting. Because of this, we break the world down with nuance and insight to drive your curiosity and challenge your thinking.

The leaderships of the Palestinians in Gaza and Judea/Samaria do not serve the interests of the people they purport to represent. Instead, they take instructions from their paymasters in Iran, Syria, Qatar and elsewhere in the Islamic world that have their own agendas with no true concern for the Palestinians. Normalisation of relations between Israel and UAE, Bahrain and, hopefully, Saudi Arabia will put pressure on the Palestinians to depose their current leaders as funding from those countries is either severed or more tightly controlled. But Iran and other regional powers will continue to fund the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, so good relations with Saudi Arabia, while a step in the right direction, will not in itself improve the lives of the Palestinians. If the Palestinians want to improve their lives, they must throw off - or if necessary overthrow - their venal leaders and replace them with ones who will normalise relations with Israel. Once that happens, there will be peace and prosperity for Israelis and Palestinians.

What is your view on the immigration to the Palestinian region which led to the establishment of Israel via violence and nakba? Don’t you see that as immoral and wrong? Imagine living in your country with 90% of the people being your people and then over the years foreigner from all over the world come together in YOUR country, as soon as they are significant in size they fight you, throw you out of your house, demolish it - so you never come back. Not you nor your family or neighbor. Jewish population was ~10% in Palestine in the 1920s, now it’s 70%. By that logic Turkish immigrants in Germany have the right to form their own country inside Germany as well, or Romanian immigrants take a part of Spain, or Algerian Immigrants in France take part of France.

[@dbeniz]

Improved economic conditions is something that is highly important to Palestinians and we should do what we can to improve them, and I do agree the Abraham Accords do achieve that. BUT that alone will not bring a longterm solution to the conflict. Before we do things like invest in economic cooperation and increased cultural exchange we need to agree and make it clear what our end goal is as Israelis and what we can realistically offer Palestinians in the event stability is improved and NOT leave it ambiguous. We are not doing that because it’s clear very clear that any people at the end of day want rights to equal representation if not national sovereignty. Which means minimally equal voting rights in Israel (like the Arab Israelis have) or a 2-state solution, which we know is longer realistic. I am not advocating that we offer either of these options today and agree that is not currently feasible, the kind of normalization you mentioned in the video should come first - but to emit mentioning the fact that it will come down to the two outcomes listed above is just silly. Also, assuming the plan of economic growth will create normalization, that will create more education and economic stability- which will only increase general advocacy for true civil rights and not just quality of life.

It’s anti Jew. The term anti semitism was coined in the 1800s, in Germany, because after the enlightenment hating due to religion was out of fashion. But race was seen as a “scientific” classification. It appealed to enlightenment sensibilities. There are many semites that are not Jewish, and anti semitism was never meant to apply to them. It exclusively applies to Jews. So the correct term is anti Jew.

Why don't you tell me how many Jews were living in the 22 Arab and Muslim countries, and why were they forced from those countries because Israel became a state. The Arab League sent notice to the Arab and Muslim countries telling them to boycott all Jewish owned businesses, freezing all Jewish bank accounts, considering the Jews in Arab and Muslim countries to be citizens of Israel, a country that they had never lived. The Jews were forced from the Arab and Muslim countries to Israel where they lived in tent cities and the new country barely had the means to house and care for them. The Jews had lived in these countries for millenia.

Normalization is a bad word to the Palestinian National and BDS movements. It undermines their desire to replace Israel with a Palestinian state, and is seen as a soft form of colonialism.

I pray and hope the Jews will finally set aside their pride with true humility and call for Yeshuas return now. I love Adonai and His chosen people. We gentiles who are grafted in wait on the sidelines being subjugated to the displacement on this wicked earth. God's chosen people continue to be disobedient to Adonai. Their refusal to accept Yeshua as the Messiah only prolong the suffering, trials and tribulations we "ALL" incur throughout this wicked world. In God's time, no matter the pride, stubbornness and disobedience, the Jews will call Yeshua, the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords and free all followers of Jesus Christ. God bless. ❤❤❤

[@user-bl7bt4tk7p]

I'm a believer in Yehsua as well and I have both jewish and christian members in my family. I know what this pain is. You need to give this up, especially right now. it's insensitive and super hurtful for them. They are united right now exactly BECAUSE of their jewish faith. Telling them to give that up, would break them. and it is so hurtful insult. If you want to witness then simply SHOW the love of Christ in your actions. THEN they will see that here is a christian who is respectful, compassionate, kind, - so that's what christians are like!! that's what they should experience, something to be attracted by, not someone who is Lording it over them and being arrogant. especially since you haven't convinced them of yeshua. without this, there is no conviction. There is no convincing of Yeshua, without showing the LOVE and kindness and compassion and sacrifice of Christ. Right now, Jews around the world hear some Christians saying they deserved it - that's what the world says, that's what Arabs and muslims say, and can you imagine if that happened to your family and someone says you deserve it? Because of how you worship G-d? Dont call them stubborn right now. Read Romans 11, and 1 Corinthians 9 and Genesis 12:3. Remember that God never changes and is the same yesterday today and tomorrow so his Genesis words are forever. God will bless those who bless Israel. Jews are the apple of his eye. And we are only grafted in by His grace goodness and mercy, and Jews are His first born child. We are adopted. Being Jealous or haughty or arrogant has no place - as Romans 11 warns us that He will CUT US OFF faster and easier because we were grafted in as a wild vine. and He can and will bring the Jews and restore them to Him, better and easier than he adopted us. They are natural. And there's nothing to be jealous of, we must not be insecure. The Jews being chosen hasn't been a walk in the park as you can see. Believe me, they would trade you places in a heartbeat so you would be the one to suffer the trauma of their family being tortured, raped, burned alive, beheaded. I think that being a gentile is a protection right now. to be a jew is to be hunted and persecuted. Theirs is a terrible burden. Don't make it their fault. or you are like the world telling them they deserve it. Please, don't hurt them this way. I beg you as my Christian sibling. If you want to hurt someone, hurt me, hurt us Christians who should emulate our Lord Jesus who sacrificed himself for his people. You will not hurt the Jews. you may hurt me.
