I am East Asian and visited Israel for a month in college. I was there to teach engineering concepts to high schoolers. They often asked me what I thought of Palestine, and I'd tell them "You know, as a guest in your country, I'm learning a lot and I don't think I know enough to say" to try and be polite. These children would then gleefully tell me how much they hated the Palestinians, how they were like cockroaches. One child even compared them to the mindless giants in "Attack on Titan" and that they needed to be exterminated. Later that day, a child asked me about my country, Japan, and pulled back his eyes to do the racist "squinty" face. I got a little upset, and asked him how he would like it if I made a sign of a big nose while asking about Jewish people. He got very mad at me. I have never been more terrified of, and sorry for, a group of children in my life.

Cant be occupied when the land was bought, given to and sanctioned officially by the Ottoman Empire and British. The Arab pedophiles that hate the Jews lost their silly hate wars. Ofcourse that land was given. Then these loser pedophiles were given land by the Jews. Also, the Two State solution was a difficult option for the British because of the Ottoman Empire. And the war started in 1905 and in 1895 the tension started when the Ottoman Palestines decided to give and sell land to the Jews.

I don’t think, now, that a two state solution is what should happen. Walls should be torn and the borders should blend…under what name who knows? but an only jewish state is impossible to exost in this day espacially when you are seperating ancestral land (illegally) and bringing in more immigrant than helping the indegenous. It should happen like it happened in south africa that is the solution IMO. The region has too many religions and is the birthplace of the 3 main religion of today and to have one claiming they are sacred and deserve to live there based on a book written by a man who preached the words of a “god” and using this argument in the 20-21st century is mindblowing. It’s like saying we have more claim to the lands in aftica because we had one commin homosapian ancestor and kenya (i think) was where humanity began. We also forget that the region back then also had different ethnicities and was were the main hunter/gatheres started hatvest. the middle east is not like japan, china and south korea it is not a place where we can be homogenous. We has so many civilizations and conquest that happened there that somehow a homogenous country to try and exist (when all their jews comes from somewhere) and are trying to expell tjose that have a deep connection with their birthplace is wild and toxic. It should be part of history but should not happen again because ot would create one of the biggest rifts yet again (as seen with the UN resiluyion of the Oslo accords that were not respected by mostly the israeli government) and will divide society more. The brainwashing needs to stop in both the west and israel and american jews (or wherever they come from) should stop coming because they think they have a bigger right to the land then a native. And this should also hopefully start a discussion about the natives trive in the US territories including alaska and the polynesian group. It’s starting in canada (not enough) but it’s starting.

You think you’ll be SAFER in Israel?” She responded “The IDF is there to protect us.” “Well we have cops and military in the US but that still doesn’t mean you’ll be protected.” His mom got annoyed and got up to leave.

@@davidtrak2679 you really need a description for Apartheid on youtube ? Go google it if you’re so uneducated. Israel treats Palestineans different, they cant move through certain parts of the land, they have different schools for arab children and by different i mean lesser, they fucking cut electricity, water and food paths to certain parts of Palestine. If you think it takes any more than that for Israel to be an Apartheid state then you are delusional.

Jews outside of Israel are some of the loudest voices when it comes to Palestinian emancipation. Jews in general have always been on the forefront of fighting for social justice and equality, what is happening in Israel is so tragic and very much against everything they have fought for historically

So necessary, so lucid, so humane. Universal values, indeed 🙏🏽✌🏽🙏🏽

This kind of unapologetic, brutal honesty is extremely hard to find nowadays...

Wonderful speak by wonderful Israelite. If most Israelites could see the facts in history by themselves and not accept the Zionist rhetoric, the conflict will desapear.

My knowledge of the existence of Gideon Levy dates back to the 70s when I was still in high school. We obtained information about him at the time from certain specialist magazines and we could not even benefit from a photo of him to personalize him in the flesh. His articles were widely read and appreciated, and I myself keep graffiti in my memory several articles of him which helped me form a value judgment on the Israeli politics of the time. We were so impressed by his thinking and his courage, because he was the only Israeli capable of denouncing certain racist or criminal acts either by his government or by his fellow citizens. For this he enjoys an exceptional aura and unparalleled respect in both Moroccan intellectual and student circles. But since I had become a print journalist like him, I had begun to harbor certain doubts about his intellectual health; asking me a bunch of questions about its contradictory facets; because how is it possible for a talented journalist; who is at the same time a writer, to accept colonization? to live under the protection of an apartheid regime? to support the daily massacre of Palestinians? to never deny the lie maintained around the expulsion of the Jews from Palestine that another Jewish writer has denied with supporting evidence? And not to leave Palestine to save his reputation as required by professional ethics and the ethics of belonging to the family of writers? I must admit that the Analyzes of the historian Sclomo Sand are of impeccable clarity and that this intellectual is much more sincere; whose presentations are credible and scientific. Sclomo Sand does not go out of his way to tell the truth and from then on we understand why he is purposely put on the back burner; because his remarks disturb Zionists who do not like to hear the truth about the occupation. Sclomo Sand says he searched all the libraries for a single book on the expulsion of the Jews from Palestine two thousand years ago but found nothing. In contrast to this thesis, Gideon Levy's thesis is not clear at all.....

He speaks the truth. Much respect to him

Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen .... What I just heard from this man sounded like a prayer to me, amen. He spoke the truth, the absolute truth of what is really happening. May God bless his heart. This is a man of truth. Kudos.

Notice how he keeps saying 'us' instead of 'they'. Purposely done and very smart. 🇦🇪❤️

This is a Jewish Prayer said in the morning: "(2) Blessed are you, Hashem, our God and king of the world, who did not make me a gentile. (3) Blessed are you, Hashem, our God and king of the world, who did not make me a slave (Women say: A maidservant). (4) Blessed are you, Hashem, our God and king of the world, who did not make me a woman (Women say: Who made me according to His will).

Where are the facts lol

When I was young I read Primo Levi's book "If this is a man". Strangely, the scene he described in that book that shocked me the most was the one where he had been interviewed by a German officer. The man had spoken to him calmly but with what seemed the absolute conviction that Levi was an inferior being! I could not believe it was possible to believe such a horrific thing. It scared me even more that the horror of german oppression and death camps. Dehumanization is the greatest of horor a person can inflict on another Human being, because it leads to all other horrors.

What an amazing, beautiful man who can speak with so much justice. Reminds me of a verse in the holy quran it goes something like this, oh believers stand up for justice even if it be against your own selves.

One of the many problems is that had anyone else but a Jew said this, he or she would have automatically been labelled antisemitic. This explains a lot of what was allowed to develop in Israel. Only now do people start speaking their mind about Israeli politics and behavior. It is sad and disheartening to see that Israel, of all countries, unashamedly applies the same type of policies of dehumanization and disdain that was applied to Jews in prewar Germany.
