A very moving and calm appraisal. It seems as if British Politicians have not changed one jot since those days. They have no forethought beyond their own opinion and dare I suggest Greed.

The British Mandate for Palestine was not as originally shown in the map at 8:48! In 1918, at the end of WW1 the British Mandate contained all of what is present day Jordan. The Emirate of Transjordan was established on April 11, 1921 as a British protectorate. It was created after the Ottoman defeat in World War I and was administered under the Mandate for Palestine. The region was ruled by the Hashemite dynasty, which also ruled the neighbouring Mandatory Iraq and the Kingdom of Hejaz to the south. The Emirate of Transjordan remained a British protectorate until it achieved formal independence on May 25, 1946 and was renamed the “Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.” All Population figures from that time included all the people that were on the East Bank of the Jordan River in the land that would be given to the Hashemite family for the Kingdom of Transjordan. All Jews that lived in that territory were transferred to the other side of the River Jordan, with all land to the East of that river being Jew free. So in comparing population figures of Arabs and Jews from that period have to take that into consideration. Also, 10 years prior in 1910 Pogroms were still being initiated against Jews living in the land by the Ottoman Empire. 6,000 Jews were expelled to Cairo in Egypt in 1910. I found that in 1917, the Ottoman authorities in Palestine ordered the deportation of 8,000 Jewish inhabitants from Jaffa and Tel Aviv. The deportation was carried out on April 6, 1917, and was accompanied by severe violence, starvation, theft, persecution, and abuse. The evicted civilians were not allowed to carry off their belongings, and it is thought that about 1,500 of the evicted people died as a result of the deportation. Since Jews first started returning to the land during what is called the First Aliyah, even greater amounts of Arabs were allowed to settle in the land by firstly the Ottomans and then the British, who actively encouraged the settling of Arabs that came from Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and further afield, to make sure that there would not be a Jewish majority. The Palestine White Paper was a policy statement issued by the British government in 1922. It was drafted at the request of Winston Churchill, then Secretary of State for the Colonies, partly in response to the 1921 Jaffa Riots. The official name of the document was “Palestine: Correspondence with the Palestine Arab Delegation and the Zionist Organisation” 2. The paper emphasized that the establishment of a national home would not impose a Jewish nationality on the Arab inhabitants of Palestine. It also called for a limitation of Jewish immigration to the economic capacity of the country to absorb new arrivals. The Palestine White Paper was one of several policy statements issued by the British government regarding Mandatory Palestine between 1922 and 1946. were

Brilliant video and it helped me understand my childhood in Cairo in the 1946 to 1949 timeframe. I think that post the chaos in Palestine where the Brits just walked away and left it to the UN my Dad was part of trying to make sure the handover in Egypt from King Farouk to a new Republic under President Colonel Nasser went as smoothly as possible. Mind you even the best laid plans can go wrong, especially where Geopolitics are involved! So it wasn't many years before 1956 came along with the Suez ownership/control issue and that was effectively the real end of British and French power in the whole "Middle East" Region. Looking at it 70 plus years on from a 2024 perspective of an Octogenarian (which may include President Biden), it is all happening again with control of the Red Sea short cut trade route. The Arabs getting bombed this time are in Yemen instead of Egypt. There is a lesson to be learned which is that ships, especially if they are full of oil, are super vulnerable. All it takes to stop one is a cardboard drone in the hands of a few people. In Ukraine right now thousands of simple people are being shown how to arm and control drones. How to wage war has become a totally new "Ball Game". Diplomacy and win-win Scenarios are possible but how much sensible negotiation and with whom can go on in an Election Year is certainly in doubt. So look out for lots of posturing and let's hope that proportional responses are seen for what they are which is" No solution yet" escalation. As probably all of us have experienced during our school days. Who did something wrong and who get's the blame are often not the same thing. If the innocent are blamed there will be long term feelings of injustice and unintended consequences from the good guys and also the bad guys who got away with it and will probably do it again!

When you think about how long countries searched for a 'NorthWest Passage" and the money spent financing that exploration you can see how resource routes play such a major role in history.

The brits promised the zionists land that they had no business promising and hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were forcibly removed from their lands. In 1948, when all hell broke loose the brits left and told the league of nations to sort it out. And here we are in 2024 with NOTHING sorted.

Basically, their books are fake. They make a plan, then they make a fake prophecy, then they attach us to religion.

The pull out of Great Britain from Palestine and the subsequent creation of Israel, was due in no small part, to pressure exerted by US president Harry S. Truman. Britain was at that time entirely dependent on US finance to rebuild its economy and it didn't take much to persuade the country to relinquish responsibility in what had become a bloody conflict abroad. The US President was the first world leader to officially recognize Israel as a legitimate Jewish state on May 14, 1948, only eleven minutes after its creation.

It's flabbergasting how much information is missing in this piece. The plans to take over Palestine began much earlier than 1914, to make a Zionist state for Britain. Benjamin Disraeli comes to mind, and also all the brains behind the entire operation belonged to an Isis cult. Young Churchill was also involved - a true warmonger. Nesta Webster quote from Germany and England: "England is no longer controlled by Britons. We are under the invisible [G]ewish dictatorship-a dictatorship that can be felt in every sphere of life."

The history is far more complicated. One might assume the Arabs (as they were termed as Palestine was not a nation nor a people, but an area) occupied less than 5% of the land and the Jews occupied a similar area. The land was largely unoccupied, as they are no natural resources there. Hamas would have people believe "Palestinians" occupied the entire area and Jews displaced them. In fact, Jews raised money and bought many Palestinian plots, though the price paid is indeed good for debate.

Since1920, British forces actively started to help the Zionist movement for mass immigration of jewish people to the region (along with lots of other immoral unfair ugly things and oppressions they did against the native Palestinian people) till we reach the even uglier year of 1948. It's actually not that complicated (despite Zionists trying to tell you so), not for people who do their research to know the truth and has a moral compass. It seems it has been a strategic plan by Zionists to take the whole region eventually and expel native people. And they killed lots of people and manipulated and corrupted many things since then in my view. It was very immoral and is still very immoral.

Incidentally, and lest we forget, Gaza or the West Bank are not remotely similar to Ireland. Except of course in one small way. Ireland continually asked the French and the Spanish to come over and invade England. Turns out jihads often don't end up too well well for the jihadis. Some learn lessons sooner than others.

And as far as the subject of this film goes, all the above were united as Arabs in their opposition to any partition proposal allowing Israel to exist even as a tiny sliver of land where the most of the Jewish population was (and had been for millenia).

When they gave up and left it to the UN the Jews gained a bit more territory. Interesting that from 1948-167 the Arab states had 19 years to organise a Palestinian homeland. Instead, Jordan annexed the West Bank and Egypt occupied the Gaza Strip. At least the British and UN at least pretended to be interested in a Palestinian homeland.

The British government spoke out of both sides of their mouth to the Jews and the Arabs, lied to both sides many times, and finally walked away and dumped the whole mess into the lap of the League of Nations. It is a repeat performance of something the Brits excelled at, namely attempting to colonize people in a country that they had no knowledge of and generally making a huge mess of things before leaving without a care in the world. We had to forcefully kick you out of our country twice before you finally got the hint. Unfortunately, our behavior has not historically been any better and we now have a long list of horrifically failed unilateral interventions in other countries to our credit. Nobody seems able to learn from making the same mistakes over and over again.

This vodeo shows us the conflicts that happend in the past in Palestine and how actuallyJews and Arabs became hostile to each other. It successfully gives us an overview of the history.

Who had a very pragmatic view of the circumstances. She mentioned that all Palestinians had the same label on them (as in all are terrorists) and that life was very difficult for them and her family had lived in Bethlehem (west bank) for many generations and lived in peace with there Muslims cousins. There is unfortunately a lot of BIAS in the news about the conflict, either focused on the Jewish or the Palestinian point of view. One thing I learned is I am not in a position to make an opinion about this! Its a mess lets be honest and It upsets me when people die because of ideologies. I do wish a peaceful settlement would occur, but don't know how. But killing innocents isn't right.

Did you go to Palestine as a tourist too? Why not? Is it just dessert?

the big issue here is that the palestinians seem very insistant to elect and let them be represented by groups who want nothing else than the complete destruction of israel

​@@jewhunterbidenThat's an ERROR on your part. You can't "offer" some land to the indigenous people as "courtesy". They ARE your Landlords.

Interesting that Britain always has the two weights two measures policy. They won WWI , so they took over a lot of the Ottoman’s territories, and they called it normal. When the Soviets won the WWII, as they took over land from the countries that attacked them, , the brits, complained that the soviets had ‘invaded’, these countries.

"Soviets ... took over land from the countries that attacked them." Please enumerate the countrieS that attacked them. Poland, for example?
