- 70 years have passed since the Nakba, the “catastrophe” in Arabic, took place in Palestine in 1948.
In which more than 750,000 Palestinians were forcefully displaced from their homes and pushed into refugee camps in East Jerusalem, the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and neighbouring countries.

As a British citizen of Uk , I feel deeply embarrassed of what this country has done . I hope one day Palestine is Free and they do indeed get their land back.
Do you think the uk has responsibility to right it's wrong? Should (in your own personal opinion) england. Invade isreal?
@@ryanhawkins4548 UK was responsible in the partioning between Israel and Palestine.
When will you do your research and make conclusions on your own? Maybe you believe that a people who have a history of lying are not lying this time....
@@packerfan66 I'm not going to even bother spending my time on someone who is uneducated. On about go and do my own research when I get first-hand news. I don't follow sky news or BBC news and I've done my fair amount of research thank you very much. If you look at the protest happening all over United Kingdom that speaks volumes. Let me rephrase that.. THE WHOLE WORLD
@Johnnyprc incorrect, the deal that Arabs got was 56% go the jews while 46% go to Arabs, that was the deal. At the time there was 1.5 mil Arabs and 400k jews, you have to be crazy to accept a deal like that when jews were the minority.
My life stories with Israeli apartheid:
Since the Nakba in 1948, my Palestinian family has been displaced by Israeli forces from Jericho, their birth place, to three different refugee camps in the West Bank until they settled in one camp near Bethlehem, where they started their fourth new life after all of their assets they had in Jericho like houses, farms , shops, and lands were confiscated by the Israelis and simply given away to Israeli settlers who immigrated to Palestine from Eastern Europe.
After that my dad worked almost all of his life for Israeli building companies in the occupied West Bank to secure basic needs for his children. My mum and despite her mental illness caused by the displacement trauma, had somehow and miraculously managed to keep us all alive , and together.
However the saddest aspect of this brutal Israeli occupation was not the loss of our land in Jericho itself, but the overall poor living conditions we experienced under the apartheid military control where the Israeli soldiers can shoot and kill innocent Palestinians without being prosecuted. Of course, lack of basic human rights has been the main highlight of the Israeli occupiers who did not give neither my mum nor dad any health care, social care, life or health insurance , compensation for displacement , care home or even basic retirement salary as they later became frail and ill. My parents were lucky to bring up a family in such inhumane circumstances and for me they were my biggest heroes and without whom the story of my life would not be possible to tell.
The story of my family is just one of millions of similar stories in Palestine and I’m sure there are more horrific stories to be told, but there are also many that can never be heard as their heroes are no longer with us.
يعيش الفلسطينيون .... سبحان الله ~~~
I am very sorry. I simply can't understand how the leaders of these countries thought it was ok to give away land that was never theirs to give. Adding so much salt to the wounds is what we witness the last 70 years.
BlackDog Is It okay If you can analyse DerekD's comment about Arabs in the video of UATV English's Russian Volunteer Corps?It's in the comment section of BMPWR.
Wasn't Jericho Jordanian after 1948? What are you talking about?
you try to destroy us and to kill us in Israel before 1948, you confiscated jewish lands in Arab countries and now all of the sudden you are telling me abuot your family's property? You forgot what you did to the jews in Hebron in 1929? You forgot that your leader support the Nazis and planed to eliminate us? so now....keep crying my dear and learn a good lesson from the past!
I cried for the Palestinians.

Go to Ku Chi tunnel. Remain there.
Go eat your rice and don't harass us.🤣🤣🤣
we have failed Palestinians, we have failed humanity
How many displaced populations are there around the world? What about the Kurds? Turkey is currently killing them in northern Syria.
Al Jazeera is lying as always. Almost all of the 750.000 Palestinians left voluntarily because the Arab countries were going to attack Israel in 1948. What nobody expected is that Israel won the war. Of course they did not want these Palestinians back so they became refugees. The 160.000 Palestinians who stayed are the ancestors of the now 1.5 million Arab Israeli citizens.
When you always need a lie to smear Israel and can't stay on your feet with the facts then you know that you attack something good. The state of Israel.

In no way. The made up version of the Nakba has kept Arabs delusionally dangerous.
Crazy how they said Gaza was going to be unlivable in 2020. this whole thing is sad
I was searching for recent comment, same here,,,
She was so close.... tells you this had to have been planned ?
@@dmanskinny385 israel definitly was expecting this to happen , if gaza was unlivable in 2020 imagine how it had become in 2023 , totally understandable why the palestinian resistence force had to do something about it
That was back in 2020! I honestly cannot fathom how horrible the situation is right now in Gaza, with the war, the mass destruction of necessary infrastructures, and the deliberate actions of mass starvation of over 2 million people, and on top of the already unlivable conditions before the war! This isn’t a war, it’s a genocide!
Where does the Britishers and Americans went they left destructions behind, whether it was Indo subcontinent, Palestine, Africa, Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan....
They are the people who preached human rights to others😢
Because they are gog magog/yakjuj makjuj descendent from European Caucasus Mountain escape from Zulqarnain gate... They are Kazarian/Scythians people known as Ashkenazi, later become Germanic and Viking whose conquer all European, then later to American then south African, New Zealand and Australia.. they are not original jews, they are Zionism..
Pity that in those countries they forgot the lesson!
Its insane just how clear cut this issue should be. Yet the palestinians are being slaughtered. If i was treated as such i would resist as well.
From what it looks like, both sides are at fault.
@@Punisher1830Yes, we Palestinians were wrong in that we received Jewish refugees from Europe and gave them safety. If we had expelled them and not received them, all of this would not have happened.

Wow its unbelievable to think This is about to happen again in 2023... may allah protect the people of Gaza especially the innocent children and mothers... all we can do now is pray 🇵🇸🤲
This video is missing a few key points -
When jews immigrated around 1900, they never intended to banish any arab. This is casually stated in the video in both showing the letter and also stating that the first immigrant PURCHASED the land in a way to grow their communities peacefully. and for a while - it worked.
When did it stopped working?
Once the arabs in palestine saw that the Balfour Declaration is getting real and half the land will be dedicated to jewish government.
So even though the UN gave the arabs states Syria, Lebanon, Jordan and Palestine, for the arabs it wasnt enough. Also religious figures would state that according to Islam, moslem can NOT be the inferior religion. They can accept jews, but only under muslim law.
So they started fighting the jewish immigrants before the jews even had any militant capabilities. This is the reason the jews created the Hagana, which was their main militant force and was mostly passive.
The rejection of the arabs to a jewish state started before any form of zionist crimes.
They could have been a peacful jewish state next to a palestinian state if the arabs wouldn't resist the existence of israel from the get go.
This is the cause of everything - the desire to deny ANY jewish state in Palestine, even though Palestine is the origin of the jews.
These hostilities and attacks of arab villages and communities against the new jewish immigrents gave birth to the Etzel and Lechi, two radical and even terrorist like jewish groups. They were about 200 - 400 of them, compared to the hagana, which is 100000 strong. The Hagana was generaly far more peacful and far more into the diplomatic solution. The radical Etzel and Lechi were a minority but they made some crimes against the population, as the man in the video stated. Mostly in Deir Yassin in order to open up a path for humanitarian aid into the blockaded jewish jerusalem.
The evens in Deir Yassin cause the arab population to be afraid of the jews, assuming that the radical Etsel and Lechi represents the entire jewish military force, and they fled. Most of the 750000 fled on their own, just like the jewish population in the Negen in israel and the northern parts of israel now have fled. It's war. It's dangerous. they fled. So did most of the palestinians. Some where forced to bu jews, but mostly did the reasonable thing and fled.
So in conclusion - the arabs didnt like the idea of a jewish state even as a concept and started a rivalry with the jews to prevent the state from happening.
This rivalry cause a lot of arabs to leave. Israel won and didnt allow the return of the arabs, since they knew that if they return, they will be a hostile population that will try and destroy israel again.
And as you said - these events are the same -
The arabs (Hamas) start a war with with the jews with a desire to eliminate Israel, during the war arab population needs to flee they own homes because they started a war from their own land, and if the jews will win, they will take over the land to prevent future wars on it. It's the same mistake again.
@@joeirvine1033 I am fully against Hamas but I think your statement is irrelevant.
The Gazans elected Hamas in 2005. There were no elections since then, so if Hamas messed up in the past 17 years, it's not like anyone had a chance to replace him, even if support in Hamas is just 1%.
Also, Hamas will arrest people who are against them or against their way of acting.
On top of that, 50% of the population in Gaza is 18 or younger. so 50% of the population weren't even born when the last election took place. And many of the others were too young to vote. so maybe only about 35% of the population were of voting age when hamas last had elections.
So I don't think that your argument stands.
However, i am pretty sure [according to various factors I'm not gonna go into] that most Gazans support violence and killings against jews, so whether they support hamas or not is irrelevant. However, if they do support violence against jews than yes, they somewhat deserve it.
and yet again - I am going to counter my own argument. Unarmed civilians or civilians that didnt take part in violent acts are out-of-the-question in terms of international law, afaik.
Again? No. Still. It's never stopped in all these 75 years. Who was that guy from the UN who said October 7th didn't happen in a vacuum? He was right.
@@JayeEllis some (definitely not all) palestinians today want a two state solution - palestinians in the west bank and gaza, and israel on the shore, where they are now.
This offer was already there before 1947. If they only agreed there would have been no Nakba and no war and no problem.
The Nakba is the Arabs fault (Palestinians, but also Jordanian, Syrians, Egyptians and Iraqis) for denying jews a land and wanting to do Genocide and ethnical cleansing in 1947-48.
Arabs have proven to themselves that every time they want to hurt the jews or fight for a cause with violence, they will get a worse and worse living conditions, and they are still repeating this mistake for like the 8th time.

70 years have not passed since it happened. 70 years have passed since it started. Don't kid yourself that what's happening today in Gaza, as I type this, isn't still the Nakba.

All Muslim nations must be united to support Palestinian rights
Why?
Palestinians in Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Syria? The living conditions of Palestinians in these muslim countries are way worst than those Palestinians living in the west bank... muslim countries think these people are a burden to the society
No Muslim state is going to sacrifice blood and treasure in order to give Suha Arafat a kingdom.
There is a contract between U.K./Israel and bin al saud family, but in the contract is written don`t to kill
Why, too, does none of the Arab nations take the current people? They don’t want them, their supposed Muslim brothers, because they threaten the stability of those countries; see Lebanon and Jordan. Egypt doesn’t want them because they would increase the possibility of the country falling into civil war.

The Azzam Pasha quotation was part of a statement made by Abdul Rahman Hassan Azzam, the Secretary-General of the Arab League from 1945 to 1952, in which he declared in 1947 that, were a war to take place with the proposed establishment of a Jewish state, it would lead to "a war of extermination and momentous massacre which will be spoken of like the Mongolian massacre and the Crusades."
The Arabs are still talking of massacres; somethings never change.
Excellent piece on the history of the Nakba! We need to continue to support the Palestinian people and their right to return!
this isn't what happened, of course your gonna hear this bullshit from an anti-jewish news agency
Egypt and the Arab nations attacked Israel and Palestine and caused the Nakba. The Right to Return is a horrific suicidal insane idea.
This is so immoral and the fact that Americans can’t see how wicked this mess is , is crazy and complacent.
The problem is Islam. The US Navy was founded to repel muslim pirates. They will be slow to change sides. Like never.
Many Americans do see it. The problem is our government who has a vested interest in these conflicts💰
The Nakba turns out not to mean the expulsion of Arabs from the new Nation of Israel, but rather, the catastrophe was the fact that five Arab armies failed to eliminate Israel and kill all the Jews.
In fact, 160,000 Arabs stayed in Israel and there are now, 2,000,000.
I love how the media can be so bias. As the Jewish people were chased out of Europe, no mention of the persecution and suffering of Christians and Jews in Islamic countries.
There is also another version of the Nakba which means catastrophe, and the catastrophe was the failure of the Arab armies.
Peace in Palestine absolutely but for that to happen, Islam has to accept Jewish people and stop their hatred towards them .
That is very unfair
brian awuor unfair for whom?!
ofir gabbay ,ofcourse unfair to palestinians.How can you have your land taken away from you like that??
yes it was unfair and totally biased..
if only the truth was as simple as this very problematic video. this is missing a lot of context and information, some numbers, some wars, some arab riots, some explanations about "historic palestine", is it british mendate palestine, is it ottoman empire palestine? is it roman empire palestine? many different things, none of them mean what people mean today when they say palestine. i dont even know where to start with this video.

Very good video with all the cherry picked info which fits the narrative 😅😅 aj never disappoints

"Objective of liberating Palestine"? ... That's one way of phrasing it
Yeah, liberating it from foreign immigrant religious fanatics called zionists. Who hadn't lived in the land for 2000 years and suddenly want to kill arabs and take over their lands.
Last I checked it was the Palestinians with the refugee status not the Israelis. Palestinians who were there prior to the current generation of Jews.
The Palestinians fled not because they were kicked out, but because the Arabs told them to leave while they 'dealt' with Israel. Doesn't give Israel a right to keep expanding her borders though
Absolutely NOT TRUE.
The only borders it expanded after becoming an official state were territories it took over in Wars started by the Arabic countries surrounding it.
yes it does because they were defending their country which was attacked by Arab Armies that openly called for Jewish deaths

You left a lot out. The Arabs fought against the Turks for the British and were promised their own homeland. Also the British troops later went house to house and disarmed the Palestinians while the Jews were coming in armed to the teeth.

In his memoirs, Haled al Azm, the Syrian Prime Minister in 1948-49, also admitted the Arab role in persuading the refugees to leave:
“Since 1948 we have been demanding the return of the refugees to their homes. But we ourselves are the ones who encouraged them to leave. Only a few months separated our call to them to leave and our appeal to the United Nations to resolve on their return.”

The word “nakba” to describe the consequences of the 1948 War was coined by Dr. Constantin Zureiq, a Syrian historian who taught at the American University of Beirut. Writing in his 1948 book, The Meaning of the Disaster, Zureiq said, “The defeat of the Arabs in Palestine is not a small downfall - naksa … It is a catastrophe - nakba - in every sense of the word.”
Zureiq also wrote, “Seven Arab countries declare war on Zionism in Palestine….Seven countries go to war to abolish the partition and to defeat Zionism, and quickly leave the battle after losing much of the land of Palestine - and even the part that was given to the Arabs in the Partition Plan.”
“When the battle broke out,” Zureiq wrote, “our public diplomacy began to speak of our imaginary victories, to put the Arab public to sleep and talk of the ability to overcome and win easily - until the nakba happened.”
Let's not forget the Arabs declared war on Israel and lost.... Had they have won that war the consequences for any Jew would have been dire.....I don't necessarily support the state of Israel but the Arab nations lost terribly with an overwhelming advantage in numbers.
If someone comes to you and says, "I'm gonna take by force your home and property, let's negotiate". What would you do?
Hush, its natural fellow Arabs would aid Palestine, though some like Jordan had self motive.
Nice and short information. Thank you.
Britain created mess India vs Pakistan and Israel vs Palestine, both mess same year 1948.
Free Palestine ❤
thank you Aljeeera, this puts it all into perspective...i feel for the Palestinians...its 2023 and ont the barbaric ages, nothing has changed..
The UN "suggested" dividing Palestine? That phrasing is deliberately misleading. UN Resolution 181, which partitioned Mandatory Palestine into Jewish and Arab territory, was voted on and adopted in late 1947. Leaders from most Arab-majority countries chose not to vote. Instead of voting, the Iraqi Prime minister vowed to "obliterate every place the Jews seek shelter in."
I think this was a response to David Ben Gurion's comment that europeans zionists are superior to Arabs and have the right to kill Arabs and take over Palestine, so they can build the second temple and messiah comes.
You really expect unbiased news from Al Jazeera?
The UN is controlled by chósenitè filth
Didn't know this. Thank you random stranger.
@@Bolognabeef @tackytaco8133 nice little circle-jerk zionism going on here. You lot seem to keep forgetting why the war actually started (ethnic cleansing of Palestinians). How much are you guys getting paid for this propaganda, disinformation campaign?
when justice will come,on one could not say,i have not getten my justice.
it happens because they stayed longer in Israel.. the land was named Israel because the jews lived there before them.. palestine only existed during the roman rule of the levant.. so it is right for the jews to take back what is theirs.. but i feel sorry for the so called palestinians.. times change and so the policies of the government.. they should go to arab countries instead if they want peace..
No mention of the kippur war, for example. Why?
Why didn't you mention that Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, Lebanon, Jordan - ALL attacked Israel, thus beginning hostilities? It may put a different light on the Nakba which is after all a commemoration of a defeat. None of this would have happened if the Arab world has abided by the UN resolution. The whole Nakba syndrome is a whining of a people who, if they had won the war, would have put the Jews to the sword. My sympathy, I'm afraid goes elsewhere.
THERE ARE MANY NARRATIVES IN HISTORY
THE REASON THE ARABS ATTACKED ISRAEL IS BECAUSE THEY HAD ALREADY TASTED JEWISH RACISM, FOR INSTANCE JEWS WERE NOT ALLOWED TO EMPLOY ARABS, AND MANY JEWISH KIBBUTSIM WERE ERCTED ILLEGALLY ON PALESTINIAN LAND AND IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT A JEWISH STATE WOULD BE BUILT UPON JEWISH RACISM
THE ARABS WERE NOT OBLIGED TO PAY FOR HITLERS CRIMES
@@anthonykenny1320 RACISM that never existed in the first place, another thing they invented to blame the Jewish people, Palestinians came to Israel during the roman empire era and started stealing what the Romans gave them and changed historic names for example the West Bank, it's really called Judea & Samaria, look in any bible you'll see it. in every bible, it says the land belongs to the Jewish people, Palestinians also forced h!tler to kill the jews weather than deport them to another country like he planned, but Palestinians wanted him to kill them. How about you go get educated kid and go back to school
the UN resolution ? lol you mean them giving israelis the land of palestine when people already live there, there were already hostilities before egypt jordan iraq and lebanon went to war with israel to DEFEND palestine from the ethnic cleansing the israelis were doing. you guys make me sick. you guys feel so high and mighty thinking the UN deserves to just offer up someone’s land and country. make that make sense. bigot. the holocaust was a heartbreaking catastrophe , why on earth would jewish people want to put anyone else through what they’ve been through. so hypocritical.
Zionists hostilities started post WW1 since Balfour, not the attack on "Israel". The attack on "Israel" was a response to the British mandate of Palestine ending and Zionist declaring it Israel.
Your argument is they
1. formed Israel
2. in a response to the Israel being attacked for it's formation.
You can't have 1 happen before 2,its completely illogical.
Yeah bt Israel kill them in desert al those Arab nations surrender. Israel do it alone while whole world was watching. If Palestine think they get that land Israel has taken back then it b the end of these world Wth Nakba or not it al the same! Israel is going no where it there to stay, is either u r with them or against them.
3:48
How did British even think the division was logical! splitting the same population in to two geographically diff sides. And especially based on religion!! They did the same with india, pakistan and bangladesh.Acted as if they gave us freedom to only push us into a never ending war. people suffer till date. There is no way either sides are going to give up .
And demanding Palestinians move aside and get displaced , and lose their homes . To "split" land aka ethnic cleansing
*3aaaaaaaaach a Cha3b philistine✊*
This is too brief. There is a lot more to this story. Neither side is innocent.
وَلاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللَّ
Spiderman is pretty tough too
InshaAllah, one days the Palistine will get their rights, InshaAllah.
It happened because of bad judgement poor decision poor leadership,
One good thing came out of it though, the creation of the jewish state for the Jewish people
Long live Israel and the jewish people
Your people Jews are not fulfilled their missions to GOD which GOD's given to them & they signed the contract to GOD & GOD's chosen Jews "First to make this world into PEACEFUL, HUMANITY, & HARMONY" . Once, Jews fulfilled their mission in this world. GOD's will give you the Land from nowhere which no inhabitants living. But your ancestors rebelled from GOD's word until now that's why until now you don't have the Land. Is not easy to be a Jews because you have a BIG responsibility in this world. Only GOD have the right to this Land & not Jewish. And GOD gives the land to the inhabitants. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not Kill.
And yet the British left them without giving the punishment they deserve for betraying the Brits
The video presented offers a fragmented narrative, omitting the profound suffering of the Holocaust and the brutal massacres endured by Jews at the hands of Palestinians. To grasp the full scope of this complex history, it is essential to engage with materials from both perspectives.
For Jews, there is no alternative homeland. After the horrific loss of six million lives during the Holocaust, the quest for a secure place became a matter of survival. It is deeply sorrowful that this pursuit has also caused pain to others. Yet, as a Jew and an Israeli, I can attest that we are a nation that yearns for peace, striving only to secure a safe haven for our people.
The world is never fair. Every single race has been persecuted, conquered at some point in time.
The Balfour decelaration clearly states it a home land for the Jews & not a state, the colonial masters did a lot of gerrymandering type of process and the Arabs lost big time by not being united during the Arab Israeli war
Thats bullshit colonization. That is arab land.
Nakba brief history:
The Arabs launched a war of extermination against the nascent Israel
They lost
Ever since then, they have been crying victim.
European Jews do not have a single right to this land before you talk about anything.
you ignored the British occupation.
You ignored the crime that happened by Zionists during the British occupation.
You ignored the fact that this land belongs to Palestinians.
You ignored that they got kicked from their own land to other places.
You ignore the genocide they attempt try to find an other justification for Israel complete this
I like how you call them Terrorists when they even do a peace protest
and at the same time you call them crying victims.
Palestinians are real victims and nobody can deny that.
Pro-Genocide can deny that by lies and racism
If it happened to you I know that you would not accept it and would fight back to get your land back.
whether you liked it or not Israel is,
A Terrorist state, an apartheid state, an Occupying Force, Grandsons of Nazzis and a Peace of garbage state.
Stop being a Savage Pro-Genocide Person
Everywhere in Planet where war , if you dig hard, you can find their trace
I'm learning a lot about the nakba as a jewish Israeli. I am doing a lot of reading and watching videos like this to become more familliar with the attrocities that were committed by the jewish side, but when this video states that Israel received foreign military, political and financial support I get immediately suspicious of this particular video's credibility. (This is not at all to say that I don't think the Nakba happened) but stating that Israel received foreign aid seems extremely disengenuious. Israel took over many/most (not all I don't think) British weaponry and equipment - true. Israel imported arms from Czeckoslovakia - they smuggled secretly purchased weapons into Palestine when the british blockade ended- I don't know if that counts as aid. Israeli agents bought aircrafts and bombers from overseas as well. Israeli arms were mostly produced in the Ayalon Kibbutz. Most of the Israeli army was funded by the Jewish National Fund if I'm not mistaken. If anyone received foreign aid, it was Palestine.
You're worried about how they were financially backed instead of seeing it as they bought weapons to kill and forcefully move people that were living in an area so they could take it. Wow. The justification is just amazing.
If what are you claiming is true then why didn’t the jews fight Germans and Nazis with it ?
@@Darthmaull0101 lol typical...only caring about the finance side of things and not the human side
They got aid from where, may I ask?
you’re just realizing you were brainwashed. keep the good work ;)
🇵🇸🇹🇷
So the end of the Caliphate is indirectly responsible for the Nakba, this implies that a continuation of the Caliphate is mandatory to safeguard Muslim societies in the near future. How can this currently be established ?
impossible
No more caliphate but Imam Mahdi will save us soon insyaAllah. Be a good muslim and mukmin, insyaAllah we will be among the righteous and will help Palestine free
🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍
This is terrible!!!
before the arabs the jews had been there
But the land was Arabic for centuries so it rightfully belongs to them
But Slavic Europeans Don’t belong there🥴
Jews were there for about 10-15 years around roughly 1000 BCE. That land has been occupied by many nations but majority being Arab. The last Arabs being Palestinians. The video explains the rest
Wrong. Liar. Palestinians have always been there.
@@MuxusGrandee Palestinian are Canaanites🤭
Wow i can now see why the karma is unfolding and the British descendants are feeling the brunt of the former colonists' invasion of Palestine
Were did they fist be in history
God knows the best of this solution
Yep, this crusade will fail because the Palestinians are not Arabs. The Quran forbade Arabs settling in Palestine/Israel.
DNA tests show that so called Palestinians are ancient Hebrews and are closely related to Safadi, Mizrahi, Druze, Samaritans and other Middle East Jews.
However, European Ashkenazi Jews are 50% Slavonic. So are Zionists really Jews according to the Talmud?
Allah is the best of planners:
1. Christians believe Jesus will return and they will rule the world/paradise at the end of time.
2. Jews believe a messiah will come when Jews are pious and the whole world will be Jewish, but it will not the end of time. That must mean no Zionism present.
3. Islam believes the Messiah will return as a Muslim and Islam will become the dominant religion, which will be plainly apparent, but it will not the end of time.
When your land is seized, dispossessed, occupied and you are expelled. The only natural thing to do is to resist and defend yourself. Only people not in the right mind says the contrary
The Geneva Convention doesn't apply to Civil Wars (1947-1948) between two independent factions.
You have to be a signatory party. Israel signed them in 1951, long after the Nakba.
The Geneva Convention was created in 1949. Nakba took place in 1947 or 1948 depending on whom you ask.
once victims of war now perpetrators
once perpetrators now victims
does power ensure peace
or delays it
The Nakba happened because you went to war against Israel 3 times. You lost. Now pay the consequences.
Ridiculous. You do not have shame?
Palestinians never do war against Israel
You people who believe in the zionist 'law' rather than God The Almighty will one day taste the judgement day.God is Great !
There is no excuse for Genocide and ethnic cleansing
