    G-d bless you Mr, Black I thought as an Israeli, I knew all there is to know about ISR, I heard Eugene Kontorovitch about the international law, However your history search was rather very interesting, Thank you!

    Many say that Israël is our only friend in the middle-east..... Do you remember having enemies in the middle-east before the creation of Israël? I ask the question.

      the "Transfer Agreement" was when Nazis teamed up with rich Jews and other zionists.
      you are saying the opposite of the actual truth.
      "Israel" is an illegal occupation of Syria.

      Evidently you’ve a thorough knowledge of American history, Bill. Try looking up the “The Barbary Wars”, and check to determine whether it was one of the pivotal events in American foreign relations. I can only assume that you’re kidding in asking a question so puerile.

      You should really learn a little history. The United States built there first Navy to fight Muslim Pirates who captured our ships and enslaved Americans who were no longer protected by the British Navy. That is where the famous American Patriotic hymn about US Navy ships battling Tripoli
      From the Halls of Montezuma
      To the shores of Tripoli;
      We fight our country's battles

    This was a very informative presentation, and thanks deeply to the Congregation B'nai Tikvah and the Jewish Broadcasting Service for clarifying the history. I see the situation precisely as Edwin Black sees it. I have been urging the political parties in Canada to start getting an action force established within the UN to put teeth into the 1948 convention on genocide. I would urge Russia and Israel to help put this enforcement arm together. The western world has become very indolent on matters concerning respecting economic, social and cultural self determination as per the 1966 Covenant. It would be refreshingto get serious against actual genocide - and not falling for false accusations of 'war crimes' against perfectly ethical outfits like Sodastream. It is because Canada and the US do not pay attention to real development of the Universal Rights Covenants that we get sidetracked by non-issues.

    I love this talk, but what is it with right-of-center people and making up stories about discussions that never took place.
    Seriously, you went to talk to some EU law experts but you can't name one of them and they know less about international law than ME!?

      There is no Apartheid in Israel. There is no Jews-only water fountains, or Arab-only busses, or segregated theaters in Israel. The "West Bank" is governed by bilateral agreement between the Palestinian Authority and Israel.

    Interesting, International law? Basically the whole thing didn't appear to consider all those actual people actually living in ALL the habitable valleys, happily co-existing amongst different religions, how they would feel about outside powers in different lands deciding without asking them about establishing 'a homeland for the Jewish People' people where they lived, some being Jews, many Muslim, some Arab Christian and so on. There may be a 'soda stream' factory example or two, maybe, but the actual example of the Israeli settlement programme and continual expansion is a cruel and very far cry from this despair of people having their ancestral- and by that I mean recent relatives, immediate preceding generations, not unknown people thousands of years ago, -taken away from them. This presentation seems, maybe accurate concerning dates and laws, but incredibly biased and inaccurate morally and in human terms. There are two sides in every struggle, but the might and influence of pro-Israeli Jewish voices is what holds sway unjustly. There are other Jewish voices but they are refused space in the mainstream media. It appears, very sadly, a disturbing pro-Israeli presentation. The following presentation is far, far truer morally and in real human terms therefore and essentially vastly more truthful, all of which is of supreme importance; th-cam.com/video/bUsXt8TmVfU/w-d-xo.html

      More truthful " morally". And in " human terms" ? Then why keep mentioning international law ? Because when you get a bunch of lawyers in a courtroom the only thing thats gonna matter are those documents. But you have a point about morals and ethics, arabs hide their rockets behind thier children, Israelis hide their children behind thier rockets !

      The League of Nations invited Arab representatives to every conference, seminar or meeting on the land. The leaders boycotted the meetings because the Jews were invited. The Real people living in that land were not ever under their own governance. There were less than 350,000 people in that land for over 1000 years before 1860.

    Edwin says in biblical times Israel was called Judea, Israel was called Israel, JUDEA, as written in Ezra was a province,
    A Jew wanting to understand the New Testament , might lookup where the New Testament says “ as it is written “ and refer back to the Old Testament to find what was written, the Old Testament itself says that Israel would be taken away by God, and scattered among the nations, which indeed happened, but through Jesus, and the fall of Israelthe Gentiles could also be saved , and Micah 5:2 clearly says that the ruler was obviously not human only, but was from “everlasting” this is Jesus.
    Matthew 2:6
    “And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.”
    Micah 5:2
    “But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.”
    And of course a virgin conceiving is not a natural human
    Isaiah 7:14
    “Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.”
    Matthew 1:23
    “Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.”
    Both new and Old Testament say a Virgin and a son.

    I'm very supportive of Israel being only for the Jews but I'm unclear as to why non-observant, multi generational citizens of other countries who happen to have some Jewish ancestry are so interested in Israel. These people could certainly move there but appear to have no interest in doing so yet they continue to be much more adamant about Israel than they are about their tenuous Jewish roots.

      +Matt Obermiller My good man, it all depends on how you are raised. If you are raised as a zionist - whether it is catastrophic zionism, labor zionism, revisionism, exclusionism, binationalism - you will preach whatever you're taught to believe, no matter where you live. Most Diaspora Jews idolize the state of Israel, but they don't want to go there because it's too dangerous and, as in the 1930s, Jews are very comfortable in America.

      +Matt Obermiller That's a silly comment, I was just directing the same question to people who aren't Jewish at all...what's the obsession. At least a person with Jewish roots has some reason to care.

    • @itsmatt2105
      @itsmatt2105 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jim Boyd I can understand the cultural roots thing and yes, christians who place jews in the special category I think are very mislead about what it means to be one of God's chosen people. (Read Galatians 4:21-26 and diagram out, if you care to, who the two women and 2 covenants are.)
      Recently I've started to ask "what do those who claim to be jewish care about more, watching and waiting expectantly for the messiah that has been prophesied in the Old Testament, or the political status of the country of Israel? I would think the messiah is infinitely more important but I don't see those who consider themselves jewish and pine for Zion agreeing with me.
