Nobody cares about western Sahara pretty much Most of the entire world neither recognizes it as Moroccan or sahrawi The only exceptions is that like 20 countries recognize western Sahara (it used to be like 50) And 2 nations recognize it as Moroccan(the us and Israel)

in my opinion showing recognition that a country exists should NOT neccesarily mean supporting that country as it seems to work now. In fact, Palestine and Israel are obviously different countries. Recognising Palestine as a different country shouldnt always mean you support palestine, or vice versa.

The main reason to support the existence of a Palestinian state is preservation of Palestinian identity and the ability for them to advocate for themselves on the international stage. Whether we agree with their governance or not is a separate question from whether or not they have the right to exist as a national polity. Personally I think there needs to be a one state solution, a sort of "state within a state" model that resembles tribal governance in the US.

I think you’re a little misinformed but have generally the right idea, chief problem I saw being the idea that Israel wants to control Palestine and not annex it, which is untrue, they want the land, not the Palestinians. That’s abundantly clear. Connected to that, the settlers and settlements are a deliberate choice and policy to place civilians into areas to annex them without declaring annexation (it’s illegal anyway, under international law) and to protect from Palestine just conquering the settled area back. As for why North Korea recognises Palestine, it’s because they see Palestine as a kindred spirit of sorts, having been divided in two with half granted without permission to others, by foreign powers, and then the Palestinian people being subjected to brutal warfare and occupation, like Korea was subjected to Japanese occupation, and total flattening by the Americans during the Korean War, in the first two weeks. Hence, North Korea has a lot of sympathy for Palestine, and it’s one of the few things Korea does on the world stage.

It’s actually because the north has a lot of sympathy for the Palestinians, during the Korean war, in the first two weeks, American bombing campaigns pretty much flattened the entirety of the north. Furthermore, they are culturally scarred by the brutality of the earlier Japanese occupation during WW2. They see the same things happen all the time in Palestine, and so they have a lot of sympathy, and therefore recognise the state of Palestine. One of the few things they do in the international stage I might add.

It's so interesting how which countries are recognized, and which are considered a rebellion, say so much about the politics of a country. As a Norwegian it has bothered me for a while that we didn't recognize Palestine as a country.

Let's get weird, gang.

Well Kosovo at least isn't really comparable. Kosovo wants to take a part of Serbia and make it independent, while Palestine has really always been there, just occupied. If anything, Israel's existence is more comparable to Kosovo, they took massive parts of Palestine and made a country out of it. And Taiwan doesn't really claim to be an independent country, they just claim to be the rightful rulers of all of China. Another thing is that you say callign Israel not a country is "pety" but calling Palestine not a country is just "getting closer to being pety", why isn't it pety already? Also in 12:40, no lmao they did it with Israel's permission, that's the whole point, place settlers there so you can annex the West Bank. And to make it harder for Palestine to become independent (Which is why the obviously best option is one Palestine where everyone is equal instead of jews being superior)

Ah yes. Taiwan, the People’s Republic of China, lol. 6:55

10:20 - You don't know how many atrocities the US Armed Forces committed during the Korean Civil War. North Koreans will never forget, regardless of whether you choose to report it or not. Hence they are sympathetic with Palestine. They've witnessed Yanki imperialism firsthand and not only survived, but have attained nukes to assure MAD, should Washington become emboldened.

It's such a tragedy that the cradle of both, the Christian and Muslim influenced parts of the World is in such turmoil. It used to be a place of philosophers and leaders, now it's basically rubble, hate and misery. It should be a flourishing peaceful place for historians and scholars, as well as the people as a whole.

Everyone who is like "what about Kosovo" or "what about West-Sahara" don't realize that inter-imperial rivalries and who you are allied with have greatly reduced the power of supra-national institutions, and just because this is happening for Palestine now does not diminish the need for recognition in other areas. The UN needs to be more effective and I can see it becoming so through the current crisis.

The jews fled the ww2 holocaust for obvious reasons, but why move to an equally hostile place in the middle of a bees nest? they knew they werent welcome down there yet they kept migrating there. That i dont get because .. there were alot of countries ready to accept jews afterwards! but due to spirituality they insisted on THAT region.

It’s not just religious reasons, Jews are also a nation, and an ethnicity. Even before Israel came to exist. They could be compared to gypsies. Borderless nations. They didn’t just want to move to an other country again and become a new hated minority, just how it happened time after time everywhere they went. They didn’t choose Israel because of spirituality, they chose it because of history. Their culture, their identity, roots in that region of the world. They are a Semitic group, with a Semitic language. Jewish people were already living where Israel stands now, before they created the state. Why are the Muslims more entitled than the Jews to have a state of their own on that region? Israel won the war (well multiple wars actually, and none of them started by themselves) and people still can’t accept that the land belongs to the state of Israel, that it’s a multicultural, multiethnic and multi-religious country, that accepts everyone regardless of who they are. People often claim Israel must cease to exist because they are colonizers, well if they are colonizers, what about the USA? Brazil? Argentina? Chile? Should all those states cease to exist too? Should we all give the land back to the indigenous people? If anything, Israel has a much better claim to the territory of Israel, than any of the countries in the americas have over their own territories.

The amount of harmful stereotypes, “jokes”, “conspiracy theories” that many, many people believe to be true, are all part of antisemitism, and are in many ways mainstream ideas accepted by huge groups of people (remember Kanye West?) You can’t seem to understand “Jewish people” aren’t like Christians or Muslims. Antisemitism isn’t just hating Judaism as a religion, it’s hating Jewish people as group of ethnically and culturally related people. I’m an atheist, I “dislike” religion in general. That doesn’t mean I’m antisemitic, or that I hate Jewish people. Also, your logic is pretty weird. Disrespecting choices is fine? I don’t see gender as something natural, but as a person’s choice on how to express their identity, does that mean I can hate or disrespect people based on their gender identity? There’s (a lot of) people who think sexual orientation is a choice and that people choose to be gay, does that mean they can disrespect me based on my sexual orientation? Lastly, if you are one of those people who believe different human races exist, then being Jewish is considered to be a person’s race.

Saying that Jews weren’t a hated minority after ww2 is actually historical revisionism, there’s a reason why the nazis were able to accomplish so much and it’s because they sowed seeds of hatred that had already been there for thousands of years, and hell Jews are still a hated minority today, even nearly a hundred years after the Holocaust. Your point on anti-semitism is uneducated, judaism is largely an ethnoreligion, and also a world minority religion. Jews make up less than 3% of the US population (highest Jewish population in the world besides Israel btw) and yet they are 60% religious hate crimes in the country. Being ethnically jewish is not a choice, being religiously jewish is, and Jews have been persecuted ethnically for thousands of years. Saying Muslims allowed Jews to practice their religions in the region is also not exactly very helpful given that they were eventually forcefully expelled from the countries in waves, whose families makes up a significant portion of the population of Israel. Now I don’t agree with the extremes of Israel’s military actions but please keep informed about the contexts on both sides.

Agreed!!! but everyone should, obviously not just Israel because that would simply come off petty and childish which to be fair would probably be a compliment to netanyahu in comparison to genocidal psychopath. Palestine Catalonia basque country Kurdistan western Sahara Taiwan West Papua Somaliland and many more all deserve independence!! Obviously it's harder in some places than others but in general there just aren't enough countries right now. There are way too many arbitrarily drawn lines (particularly in countries that were colonised) and completely distinct culture's forced into larger countries around the world right now and it just isn't right. The world would be such a better place if these places got their independence. Just look how much warmer the relations between Ireland and the UK have gotten since our independence, we even have the right to live work and travel visa free between the two countries just as Ireland has with the rest of the EU and it makes the quality of life so so so much better and people here are happier and richer too. Who knows in a century from now maybe these places will get to enjoy the same things with their neighbours too if things go well and if not at least they have the right to tell each other to stay out of their particular country rather than all this unnecessary death. Most of the time the countries subduing and forcing places to stay a part of their country do it solely for monetary purposes or/and they're corrupt and power hungry. New Caledonia is a great example that springs to my mind for some reason. It really is a tragedy that people are so brainwashed or uninformed on these kinds of issues these days.

What a stupid comparison. Ireland was colonized by the English, the English starved to death Irish people, literally. Catalonia was never forced into Spain, it was never colonized or subjugated. Spain itself is a product of the union between Castilla and Catalonia. There’s no Spain without Catalonia. Regarding the Palestine thing, Israel literally maintains Palestine alive, they give them water, food, energy. Palestine can’t survive without the help of Israel, because for decades Palestine focused on destroying Israel instead of developing their own country. Israel is even the home of millions of Arabs and Muslims, because who wouldn’t prefer to live in Israel? A country with opportunities, that respects every ethnicity, religion, gender and sexual orientation? I mean, if I had to choose, I definitely choose Israel, I’d literally be sentenced to death in pretty much every other middle eastern country just for existing as I do.
