What are the Israeli Settlements? - Settlements Part 1 | History of Israel Explained | Unpacked

There are few words more divisive in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict than “settlements.” Some people believe Israelis have every right to live in the West Bank / Judea and Samaria. Others believe Israel’s presence there is a key reason for the ongoing conflict.
And that’s not to mention the countless views of everyone in the middle of these two extremes.
Because the Israeli settlements are such a major issue, we’ve created a series of five videos to look at this controversial subject from every angle.
In the coming weeks, we will get stuck into this thorny topic. To start with, we’re going back to basics and looking at what the settlements are and how they came into being.
Let us know what you think by dropping your comments below.

@Jinny Barebuckle One has nothing to do with the other. The way Europe treated the Jews doesn’t excuse how the Jews were treated as second class citizens in the Arab lands.

One small correction. When Ben Gurion declared the state in 1948, he was very careful to not specify it's borders, recognizing that a war was about to break out. The outcome of the war would determine the borders. Your video said that Ben Gurion declared the state on the basis of the borders of the UN Partition plan which is incorrect. He did make reference to the UN Vote but in the context of the right to declare a state.

[@chidahwill8099]

Clearly Ben-Gurion always intended to annex all of "Palestine" (aka "Eretz Israel" aka "Israel, the West Bank, Gaza and the Golan Heights"). In 1937 he said "A partial Jewish state is not an end but a beginning, The establishment of a state, even a small one, will serve as powerful leverage in our historic efforts to redeem the land in its entirety ... We will organize a sophisticated defense force, an elite army - I have no doubt our army will be one of the best in the world - and then I am sure nothing will prevent us from settling the whole land..." Israel has been using force to expand its borders since May 15th 1948.

I think this is a HUGE misconception. Palestine was never independent. Neighbouring Arabs have done as much to dispossess Palestinians and don't genuinely want them to have their own state either. If Jordan wanted to, they could have easily granted Palestinian refugees citizenship and Jordan could effectively be Palestine.

Actually, Israel is not much wider with Judea and Samaria in its possession, especially up north. Between the Mediterranean Sea at Netanya and the Jordan River, Israel is only 40 miles wide as a bird flies. Now that is better than the previous 9 miles wide, and the Samarian Mountains and the 3000 foot drop from the Samarian Ridge to the Jordan River at about 600 feet below Sea level in the Jordan Valley provide the defensive depth.

[@dovbarleib3256]

@@AnalystTosh Yes, the Southern tribe of Judah was all due south of Jerusalem. The Northern Kingdom of Israel was in the Hill country of the Tribes of Ephraim and Menashe with breakaway ancient Israel's capital in Samaria between the territories of Ephraim and Menashe. In between Judah south of Jerusalem and the Ephraim Hill country is the territory Benjamin north of Jerusalem, but it was part of the southern Judean kingdom. So today Benjamin is often considered part of Samaria even if it was part of the Southern Judean kingdom.

@7:16 I suppose it is referring to Article 2 (4) of the United Nations Charter: "All Members shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations." Indeed, Art. 2 (4) is not reffering to the specific nature of the war: aggressive or defensive. However, in "or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations", one may understand that, regardless of its nature, if a war is inconsistent with any os the paragraphs of Article 1 of the UN Charter, let's say, Article 1 (1) "To maintain international peace and security", such a war would not be acceptable, would it? I'm just trying to understand... why there is no peace.

[@thedivide9559]

[@RS2020-tb6hf]

I think it's interesting that you don't mention the proposal, that was made by all of the Arab and Muslim state members of the UN in 1947, for a democratic state that would protect rights of all citizens equally. This was just one example of an offer for peace that was turned down by Israelis.

[@UNPACKED]

You seem like a reasonable and rational person, either that or a highly attuned PR expert. I appreciate this is a particularly unique perspective, but the current occupation has been called unlawful by the UN. The opposition to the policies of the Israelis government by groups Jewish people all over the world is also a pretty incriminating testament, not just based on ultra-orthodox views, but on humanitarian views. Israel can survive and prosper as part of a two state solution, with buffers of shared non secular borders in religious sites. The suggestion of anyone having a birth right to lands that are not in their possesion is nothing short of imperialism. The use of chemical weapons such as white phosphorus on the citizens of Gaza is damning, and an argument that surrounding countries who are enemies of the Israeli state having chemical weapons capabilities is not a sufficient argument, given the fact that no one has used chemical weapons against Israel, and there are multiple cases of Israel using such weapons. The occupation of Palestinian lands is exemplified by the hatred that it requires in order to use white phosphorus on civilians. Forward to a peaceful two state solution that recognises the ethnic, religious, and cultural significances of both states, where militaristic interests are not at the helm.

[@user-uz7dm6qn3y]

Well take into consideration that Jordan comprises 80% of Mandate Palestine and 80% of its population calls themselves "Palestinians" the only logical, historically sound and just thing to do is to recognize the Jordan River as the border between Israel and Palestine (Jordan).

In face of the Jews' usurpation of Palestine, it is compulsory that the banner of Jihad be raised, To do this requires the diffusion of Islamic consciousness among the masses, both on the regional, Arab and Islamic levels. It is necessary to instill the spirit of Jihad in the heart of the nation so they would confront the enemies and join the ranks of the fighters,"* *"In their Nazi treatment, the Jews made no exception for women and children.

[@colekaller5467]

But it is a defensive war as operation focus (which is what the air strike against the Egyptian, Jordan, and Syrian air forces was called) was a response to the acts of war committed against them. This was explained in the video. For example, Egypt remilitarized the Sinai and closed off the Tiran straight (an act of war) also in Syria, the government diverted the water flow of the rivers which supplied water to the Kineret to their own reserves (the source of 40% of Israel’s water) [also an act of war]. So feel free to debate me on this, but by definition this seems like a defensive war, no?

NO, there are 22 Arab Muslim states, many made by the League of Nations at the same time as Israel was started. There is just one Jewish state.

When rhe Arab Muslim states treated the Jews with Distain and forced them from the lands they lived in for millenia, they needed somewhere to go. Israel is the only Jewish state. In the beginning, the Jews appealed to the Arabs to stsy in their houses and to help them create a country together, the Arabs from 5 countries plus the Arab irregulars attacked the one day old country of Israel. They chose to leave, they chose to attack, not just one time but with 5 wars and 2 intafadas. The Jews won the wars, the Arabs have continually fought against them. They want to annihilate Israel and the Jews.

It basically goes like this. First their is the occupation in 1967, than Israel declares that they occupy the west bank and gaza for the sake of protecting Israel because those areas are posing danger, the Palestinians begin to fight the two decades of oppression at the early eighties, which prompted the revival of all these militant groups aka hamas. Than israel decides to build settlement in the same region that they claim to be unsafe, and they segregated them completely from Arab towns and villages, than the Palestinians fought back with suicidal attacks etc, which prompted Israel to build a wall completely segregating Palestinians and towns from one another. After building all these settlements, now israel is focused on Driving Palestinians out of their lands and homes, specifically in Jerusalem, aka yakub the thief. While doing all this, militant groups like hamas are getting stronger every couple of years, with rockets now that can target every town in Israel. How did this war start? Just ask yakub the settler he’ll tell you all about it. He basically told the Palestinian struggle, so thank you yakub.

[@MrArtist7777]

The only real long-term solution for Israel and Palestine is for the Palestinians to have their own state in Gaza and to expand Gaza, both on the Egyptian side and Israeli side and for Israel to grant citizenship to all Arabs living in the West Bank/Judea-Samaria. If Arabs want to leave the West Bank, they should be given a grant, or stipend to afford to move to Gaza, Jordan or Egypt.

[@curiouscreativenottalented6259]

3 states: Israel, Gaza, Palestine (west bank with land swaps). Settlers whose land isn’t absorbed into Israel can continue to live as a minority in West Bank. Peace deal will require full recognition and citizenship of settlers in new Palestinian state along with continued security cooperation with both Israel and palestianian authorities. Gaza can remain the status quo and hopefully gets absorbed by Egypt. Jerusalem is a unified city and a dual capital of both Israel and West Bank. Alternative is 2 states: Gaza and Israel, but with demographic shifts eventually Israel could have a minority Jewish population. Last alternative is status quo, which depending on if you count Gazans teeters on apartheid.
