Thats like saying lions and tigers are safe because I saw some at the zoo and they didnt eat me.
When was the last time Israel was bombed? 3 maybe 4 weeks ago? Im sure it was purely done out of fear
Dude, just look up how the German tourists were treated in Nablus because of an Israeli rental car. Stay safe
Can you tell me which Arab quarter you went to?
I was 17yrs old & working in Israel, alone. I met an arab family in the West Bank who invited me to their home for dinner. What a beautiful family. It was 1978 & dangerous times but all I felt was love. God bless that family as they had nothing but still fed me. ❤
So Arabs are good and Jews are evil or did you just meet one particular arab couple and not all of them and surely you have not met all jews.
Aamiin.
That’s Islam. You have to greet guests with the upmost RESPECT and serve them meals, drinks, sweets etc
Sadly the Zionazi occupation took place and committed worse crimes than what the Nazis did
1950-90s are really dangerous place in Levant region especially those coming from Israel to Arab Republic at 60s
If you're afraid, you don't come from Europe and kick people out of their homes.

I had the misfortune to be in Jerusalem during Yom Kippur, no food, drink, taxis, buses, nothing.
On the second day we, my wife and I, decided to go to the Arab quarter for food, we were getting some decidedly funny looks from the street sellers, and their customers.
We go to the first stall that sells food, and the seller asks where we come from, are we Americans, no we are from Scotland I tell him. He told us he had never met someone from Scotland before, starts shouting for the other stallholders to come and meet us.
They fed us that day and the next, plus gave us food for the rest of the day away with us, and never charged us for it, wonderful people and so interesting.
Moral of the story, don't believe everything the media or those with an agenda tell you, go and find out for yourself.
With all the respact, the fact that you came to visit israel once in your life on Yom Kippur which is the most holy day in the entire year for us jewish people, does not mean that you know all the things we have been through with the arabs. We dont hate them all, but there are a lot of events when a sabotager kill and hurt other jowish. So obviously, since we dont know who is dangrerous and who is not we dont go there. I live in israel and every day i wonder if ill recognize one of people i go past in the news saying this person got killed or hurt. Ill say again the we dont hate all of the arabs, but as jews we wont go there and look for the doog ones. Not all the arabs are the same but unfortunately we dont have a way to saperate the good ones from the bad
Look up the Fogel family, for starters.
Not all of the Arabs are killers, not all of the Arabs are terrible people, I'm aware
But as Jews, going to places that are full of Arabs can be a suicide.
Look up instances in which Jews have accidentally arrived Arab villages and were violated.
And as someone else said, the Fogel Family
That's why most sane Jews people, are afraid.
That's why I don't like Jerusalem (+ surrounding) with all its anxiety and stress. I much prefer cities like Tel-Aviv or Haifa where entire neighborhoods are mixed, people talk and live together without BS politics and religion.
You should have told him you are Israeli and see what happens.
moral of the story is if you dont know the real deal , dont pretend like you do
I hear you but this is shit advice also. A lot of places you’re told to not go are genuinely unsafe for tourists/ foreigners. And plenty of people have been killed trying to prove places are safe.

If I don’t take your home someone else will take from an Israeli settler, was the honest and brutalist statement I have ever heard
No, it’s not. The Jews haven’t stolen land that was there’s in the first place. Just because you’re exiled from your home, that doesn’t mean it’s not your home anymore. The Jews are a subgroup of Canaanites, which means that the Arabs and the Jews have a right to the land. Hamas wants to destroy Israel and eradicate the Jews, what else would “From the river, to the sea, Palestine will be free!” means? Hamas wants to free Gaza which resides by the river and then liberate Israel which resides by the sea. If Israel truly wanted all Palestinians dead, then there wouldn’t be any Palestinians living in Israel with the same rights as the Israeli’s. If Israel truly wanted all Palestinians dead, then Gaza would be leveled to the point where Hamas aren’t just eradicated, but all Palestinians are as well.

He observed incidences and reported the facts. The first people he spoke to warned him of going to the other area. Then a person in that area warned him of a Jewish area.
@Dan Morgan I think you've misunderstood him from a short. Try watching the whole video.
He's not presenting a theory of all Jews and Palestinians in that area. He's specifically talking about the group of Arabs he met and the Orthodox Jewish family he stayed with. Those two small groups are the "they" who are scared of each other.
I rewatched the video to make sure.
Of course, he could be lying about his whole experience. He may never have been to the Arab quarters. He may have never met that nice group of Arabs who are scared of all Orthodox Jews.
If he did lie, then his Israel experience doesn't back up his claim that there are always people on both sides in a conflict that could speak to and even get along with some on the other side, and that their blanket fear is providing an obstacle to that.

Wow ! Eye opener! May God bring peace for Jews and Palestinians!
The professor misses one key attribute that he and his Jewish friend had that made their travel between the two sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict possible: they were not Israeli and they were not Palestinian. Third parties who are judged as being neutral (despite being seen as likely-to-be partial to one side) can move between these spaces. For example, Jews, who often have problems in Muslim-majority countries, don't have problems travelling in the Balkans or the Southern Caucasus at all (despite there being a few Muslim-majority countries there) because Jews are viewed as neutral in the Orthodox vs. Catholic vs. Armenian vs. Muslim fratricide in those regions. If you're not the enemy, you're not a target.

Years ago I was planning a trip to China and a few websites said it was the worst country for a black person to go because of racism. I went anyway and had a great time. People spoke to me and were interested in why I was there. A woman helped me when I was lost. And two young boys ran up to me and recited a story to me in English.
That's really beautiful. Thank you for sharing 😊
Racism exist everywhere and China is no exception. If you do not speak Mandarin Chinese, it may be harder for you. If you can speak fluent Mandarin Chinese, even the Chinese who are racist towards black people may be cleared of their misconceptions and prejudice once they meet up with you. If you can speak Chinese dialects and even know their slangs, even the racists may become friends with you. For the Chinese, you as a foreigner who venture out of your comfort zone to learn their language and culture, is highly admirable and must be shown friendliness and respect.
Maybe it's not racism towards black people. Rather, some insecure Chinese dude may fear losing their women to BBCs, since Chinese men are less endowed on that department when compared to black dudes.
I'm so glad you followed your intuition.

True. I have heard testimonies from ex-muslims that said they actually genuinely hated Jews because they were taught so. Some people don't hate because they don't understand why they should, but some do because they want to please their god. So this was a bad piece of advice
@@phamnguyet8737 why don’t you post those testimonies of those Ex-Muslims or name them so we can see what you talking about
Jews lived more then 1400 amongst the Muslims and under Islamic states and were well treated and protected as the Christians too while in the rest of the world especially in Europe they were executed and chased and burned alive just until 70 years ago! If the Muslims were oppressors and hated the jews as you said than how come they lived amongst us for 1400 years and plus? In fact the Muslims protected the Jews from being wiped out from the face of earth by the crossers and Christians! You can’t fake history and you give up your idolatry and stop worshipping a statues and figurines
@@phamnguyet8737 Stop the BS
Islam teaches you to love jews and treat them kindly and fairly , but for sure not with colonizer who is ethnically annihilating you. it is even not acceptable in the Arabic world to hate in jews and they live in a lot of arabic countries in peace like Morocco . we refer to "Israeli" as Zionist not "jews" , the conflict between arab and "Israeli" never was based on anyone's religion and never will be .

The Israeli reaction is fully based on arrogance and blind hatred, the other side is not considered human. It has been like this for more than 50 years, since before Hamas existed (1986), since before Palestine Liberation Organization existed (1964), since before Israel was formed (1948). It goes back to the time of the Balfour declaration 1919 when the Zionist movement got its first victory.

what leaves me heartbroken is, as an Albanian, everytime i meet a tourist traveling here through Greece, they always tell me some Greek person told them to not go to Albania because it's dangerous. And the tourist says, why would they say something like that if it's not true?
I ask myself the same question, i only have love for my neighbors but it's not reciprocal
Exactly!!!
I'm a Greek, and Greeks and Albanians should be two good neighbors, but unfortunately some prejudice still exists
It's from older people usually though so maybe with time it gets better
Isn't that advice because of the local family mafias that happen to be located in some regions of Albania?
Although I don't think they would have any reason to bother tourists.
Tourists everywhere should mostly watch out for pickpocketing strangers that can be either tourists themselves or local petty criminals.
Also watch out for kid pickpocketing as a general rule.

I've lived in the old city of Jerusalem. I highly doubt he said "I've never had a Jew in my shop". Plenty of us freely go through & shop in the Muslim quarter. In fact I'd walk through every day to go to work on the other side. I'd frequently go to Abu Shukri who has the best hummus in Jerusalem

The two sides are enemies so obviously they'll tell you it's dangerous. If you go to Jordan they'll tell you the west bank is safe. If you go to Israel, they'll tell you it's dangerous.

Well said!
True i live in israel too and i always meet nice and kind arabs (if thats how you write it)
אני מסכימה
True we cannot blame the new generation, but as an originally palestinian person who’s family was almost massacred by israel and fled the country when the occupation was happening, I meet young people all over the world who are from Israel and I have this internal conflict, one part of me says that its not the fault of this person, they were just born and raised there, but at the same time, in a year or two they will probably be in the army killing helpless people again, how can I ignore all of that and just be kind to them? You cannot expect peace when all you bring to the table is terrorism, inhumanity, and lying and manipulation through the fake media that YOU control. Just check the casualty counts and number of women and children and you will know that’s its not a conflict nor it can be just hugged and kissed away, peoples houses were demolished and they have nowhere to go to
peace? We tried that, the west bank was supposed to be Palestinian territory, but the israeli army still goes there, they build illegal settlements there, and they carry there what they call "operation to find terrorist" and what I call terrorizing people to take there land. They not suoposed to sit a foot there ,It happens every single week how can we not BlAme the new generation. To me it's all Palestine

When an academic does not know the difference between average and outlier you know you deal with a social scientist...
What's the outlier and average? You're assuming his anecdote is the outlier, but you can also surmise the outlier is the negative fear mongering.
So which is it? Just because there's a stereotype for certain cultures doesn't necessarily equate to the norm. In fact, many stereotypes are made thru mass media feeding us with the outliers daily.
The minority on the internet speaks the loudest; news media blasts eye-catching and scary things about the world. That's where we often begin to develop our opinions on others and other countries. Not from our personal experience, but from media that profits off of fear.
For my own personal experience, living in the middle east and china, everyone I ran into is just living their lives the best they can; trying to provide for their families. Despite what TV and internet says, despite what their government might say.
Because of this, I tend to lean into the thought that the outlier is the stereotyping of danger and fear; the average is what he personally experienced. I can relate because I've seen the same.
Where do you take the data about this average from?
What do sociologists study? Isn’t it statistical data on societal trends…. Hmmm seems like sociology is a somehow grounded in data
@@chrisandlizsizemore8172 You must be a social scientist...One data point cannot be an average..agreed? So this anectode can also be neither and your false dichotomy as it being either outlier or average is wrong.
I'm just observing that this "professor" lectures his students with this neat anecdote without providing the slightest evidence. Personal stories are useless, it's not data, that's table talk.
Sociali scientist, especially sociologists frequently argue in this manner. It stems from the fact that sociology has stopped being a science with the advent of Weber and other idealist type social scientists ultimately inspired by Marx.
Just look what Frankfurt school did. They did only author one empirical study in about 100y - the authoritarian personality by Adorno. The study is methodologically flawed beyond belief and completely useless, yet it is their best work.
In another video this "professor" argues that the gender ideology is true since it fits the neat story of reincarnation prevalent for example in Hindu religion.
This is just ridiculous beyond belief but since this idiots have neat stories it seems to captivate quite a lot of people.
To round it off. The Frankfurt school not only achieved absolutely nothing, they tried to create a method - named Critical theory - which would only allow questions to be answered in a Marxist framework. In other words, change the epistemological basis for what counts as facts - opposed to the scientific method - in the social sciences.
This is the biggest piece of propaganda in human history.

The regular people are not the ones that will give you trouble. It helps also if you speak the language. My nephew is a Christian and went into the Arab quarters, but he speaks Arabic.
Sadly everywhere you go this is the norm. You respect the country and speak their language. In America for some reason we don't expect people to extend americans that courtesy. I just came back from a latin American country and what I learned is that the people in this country will fake that they don't understand you unless you speak their language almost perfectly no broken spanish. For example I went into a supermarket to buy a pair of glasses. I couldn't find them so I went to a women at the register in that department, I know some spanish so I took off the glasses
and said Politely Queiro,glasses while pointing at them. She pretends to be puzzled and another guy about two feet away she looks over at him looking puzzled and he looks back at me faking being puzzled, The girl summons some other girl from the back and she approaches me I point too the glasses without speaking and she takes me to them. While Im looking for the glasses I glance over at them and they are looking at me and laughing their asses off. However unlike people in the US I don't think they are racist just aholes. It didn't bother me because it was similar to two or three instances where I ran into this without the laughter. I experienced this in the immigration office as well.
@@abcall-timesboxingchanneln7076plenty of people would act like that in the US too from what I've seen, there are plenty of people on camera saying "we speak English here" in a stern and dissaproving way, also many Americans expect the whole world to accomodate them by speaking English and are surprised or even dissaproving when people can't.

This is an amazing post. Your talk to the audience was as if you were exactly describing the trip my husband and I made to Israel some years ago. My dear late husband was also Jewish. He had fought oppression, racism and bigotry of any kind all his life. So when we went, I promise you that we were given exact the same advice about the Arab quarter, and the West Bank. We too just had to go and visit these places despite these warnings. We too were welcomed with open arms in both areas. The warnings of us being at risk in these places couldn’t have been further from the truth. Although at the time it was true that there was a sense of great tension on the Wear Bank. But none of this was directed at us. It was so sad that these things were being spread in a way that fear and bigotry grows to such monumental levels. I hope with all my heart that the divides will one day be closed, and people can live without fear, and in peace.
