@@ThiccPhoenix lmao small kid
How old are you, 7?
@@ThiccPhoenix lmao
100-75 is 25 so the “centenary” (nice english btw) will be in 25 years
If you say you will be in your 30-s means you will be from 31 to 39
If you subtract 31-25 you get 6, if you subtract 39-25 you get 14
So you are from 6 to 14 years old now
And you gotta go back to english class, centenary boy
I pray so too. As a matter of fact I will go to celebrate 100 years of the rebirth of the Nation of Israel. A natural proof of the supernatural God and his great book "The Bible"

You missed complètement the answer to the Nakba. In fact while the New state was fughting for its survival, 900 000 jews were expelled from all the arab Irak. Egypt libya , Yemen, algeria, Tunisia, states:
Also, hundred of thousand jews flew from Morocco, Iran, Turkey out of fear of popular islamist retaliation. Therefore, there was in fact an exchange of populations across borders very similar to exchanges of Hindous and Muslim People between India and Pakistan in 1947, and other similar exchages in Eastern Europe after 1945 under UN supervision. Those exchanges were actually the more realistic ways of dealing with such impossible situations. In the case of those 1 million "Arab" jews, this was à REAL libération from the suffering and humiliation suffered at the hands of various Islamist and antiJewish rulers for 2000 years. Israël is often described as the Land of refuge for Jews fleeing from the Holocaust , but there were in fact very few Holocaust survivors. Thus, the main bénéficiaires of Israël after 1945 were the "arab" Jews also called "Sephardic" jews and later in 1991 the Russian Jews.
Why didnt Israël use that extremely strong argument against the Nalba is à mistery to me!!! The "arab" jews also suffered from expulsion and loss of money and belongings as they had to flee in the middle of the night and leaving everything behind. Many were also caught and killed. So, they suffered even more than the Palestinians!
The "arab" jews also expérienced à réal Nakba!
WHEN will the Israeli officials use this compelling argument?
Happy Independence Day !❤💪

You skipped over the fact that Czechoslovakia was selling Israel new built and surplus German weapons thus turning the instruments of Nazi murder into hope for the nascent state - a delicious irony.
And, according to Natan Scharansky and Caroline Glick (in their conversation I just listened to on JNS) I learned that it was Josef Stalin that made these arrangements of Czech weapons because he wanted Israel to be able to push the British out of Palestine (He saw the UK as a natural enemy to the USSR) before he would turn against the Jewish State once again afterwards...another strange twisted irony.

Eventually the Soviets/KGB created the Palestinians in 1964 to try & destroy Israel.
@@davidlasoff8261 Military aid began in 1947, when the government was not yet fully controlled by the Communists, after the coup, diplomatic relations slowly began to cool, and finally the arms deliveries ended.

Herzog & other heros fit the Ezekiel "dry bones" prophecy of Ezekiel perfectly. The dry bones are together, but we're all anxiously awaiting the Breath of Life (Light of the World) to come. The One who put the spark of life into every human will return & rule from Jerusalem in stunning Glory! Even the relentless sun will be ashamed! It was the the capture of Jerusalem the convinced me. The impossible is happening. It will get ugly , so call upon the Name of the Lord via Isaiah 53. Happy Birthday Israel from a graft on the Vine of Abraham!

Happy Birthday Israel! i am not Jewish, well, yes, in my heart i am Jewish, i love Israel with all my heart !
The name for thousands of years was The Land of Israel and at times split between Yisrael/Israel and Yehuda/Judea.

The Balfour declaration …
You mean Lord Rothschild? 😊😊😊
Did he say Lord rothschild? The Balfour declaration was written by Lord Balfour, Chaim Weizman helped to find a gun power recipe for the British army. The San Remo agreement predated the Balfour declaration and as an internationally signed treaty it obligates the nation's, yet it's not often brought up
Chaim Weizman by solving the gunpowder conundrum for the British was able to form a relationship with Lord Balfour
@@GreenCanvasInteriorscape That story is as airtight as a wooden door.
You leave out that Israel has enjoyed US UK and French support after World War 2. The UK and France fought alongside Israel against Egypt in the Suez.
And Eisenhower gave the first public scolding of Israel as a result
4:04 Why is Poland in Czechoslovakia after the split in the 90s ?
You omitted the mention of the IDF's actions, including the genocide in Palestinian villages during 1948, as well as massacres in places like Tantura

Growing up, I always spelled Israel as Isreal and never understood why the A and E were switch when in English real is spelled EA not AE

He of course forgot to mention that the USSR under stalin was the first state to De Jere regonize Israel.
@Aaron Moser The US was actually the first. On the day, (May 14) Israel declared independence, America issue a statement of recognition. Though it was de-jure, recognition from USSR came 3 days later.
@@dorandacolbert5973 I said de jure not de facto.
Literally glossed over the very important 'Naqba'
Not even mentioned how 750 thousand people were kicked from their home.
Great Israel.
We're lucky to be in a universe (assuming one believes in the many worlds theory and similar concepts) - and one of the relatively very few - in which Israel is a Jewish and Hebrew-speaking country in the first place, and we're even luckier to be in a universe where Israel is all these things plus an economically advanced country and a hi-tech superpower. It took many contingencies (though 5,000 contingencies sounds somewhat exaggerated) and it was thus a miracle, but it happened in our universe. L'chaim!!!
Lucky we
Still one year to go !

I wounder what whould have happened had they chosen Palestinie? Whould have been interesting.
Viva Israel!
Hello I love Israel and need to ask a question.
The Torah & Bible are good accounts of Jewish history.
Yet the star of David is not mentioned anywhere & no pre-1800s archaeological evidence of the use of star of David.
So I ask where did star of David come from ❓️
Such a great question, so glad you asked! We actually have another video on exactly that! ruclips.net/video/a_2JUp90fPA/видео.html

8:30 Mmm, that’s all well fine and good, but is Hashem merely a Rock? I think a rock ranks low on existence level of things. Thank Adonai He doesn’t exist as such. I guess if somehow your waiting for Someone to come and tell you what they decided, and He comes and says (while and His knees face down in Awe), “ Well, they Say You Are a Rock, The Rock, of Israel.”
That could construed as a compliment.
I myself am next to nothing. In the scheme of things, I don’t matter, not a big mover and shaker, but not wicked either. Yet, if it mattered to Heaven at all, even tho I’m not Jewish and have no claim to Israel I’ve always been filled with joy and relief for some reason because the State of Israel exists. I don’t think She’s perfect, not yet. I love Her anyway, I and want to see Her;Jerusalem. I’ve heard people get a psychotic reaction visiting there. The Holy land syndrome, they call it. I’m hoping if I go, mine will disappear 😂❤😂
Rock of Israel is a very common term in Hebrew texts to refer to G-d
can we stop giving partition plan any credit. it was never implemented and cemented the reality that the Israeli-Arab conflict won't be solved by any UN plan but by war.
Ben Gurion was very happy with the partition plan which gave the Jews 55% of the land. He was expecting 33%. To get 51% Jews in the 55% of the land, he needed to expel Palestinians. So he devised a plan to get Reid of the Palestinians. The plan was implemented from October 1947 to April 1948. So once he got 51% Jews in the 55% of the land, he declared an independent state. The Arabs were not expecting that. They thought that the UN would come out with a new plan. Ben Gurion had already made a deal with King Abdullah to give him Jerusalem and the west bank in return for not attacking the 55% of the land allocated to the Jews. So the Jews only have to deal with French influence Syria and British influence Egypt. That's an easy one for Ben Gurion
When Arabs and Muslims are weak, human happiness is at its peak.
What a beautiful thought. Thank u for opening up my mind more broader.
That is so Xenophobic it’s unreal. As a Christian with both Palestinian and Jewish roots, viewing Arabs and or Muslims as a monolith worthy of being insulted and discriminated against is part of the problem. Just as it is a problem to view the Jews, Israelis, and or Zionists as a monolith worthy of being harassed or discriminated against.
When the jews are dead, we can have our land
Islam is too powerful
Quite the opposite

And We warned the Children of Israel in the Scripture, “You will certainly cause corruption in the land twice, and you will become extremely arrogant.
When the first of the two warnings would come to pass, We would send against you some of Our servants of great might, who would ravage your homes. This would be a warning fulfilled.
Then ˹after your repentance˺ We would give you the upper hand over them and aid you with wealth and offspring, causing you to outnumber them.
If you act rightly, it is for your own good, but if you do wrong, it is to your own loss. “And when the second warning would come to pass, your enemies would ˹be left to˺ totally disgrace you and enter the Temple ˹of Jerusalem˺ as they entered it the first time, and utterly destroy whatever would fall into their hands.

אבודה זרה
This seems quite a sleight of hand in addressing the fact that the foundational act of Israel, the Nakhba, was a horrific act of expulsion and violence that most Israelis do not even care to acknowledge. The narrator here congratulates those who have managed to get over the Nakhba and acknowledge Israel, skipping over the fact that the state of Israel (with the exception of a minority of Jewish Israelis who remember the face of their god) has never recognized the Palestinian right to independence even as they celebrate their own, and is willing to manipulate the memory of fallen Israelis in order to obscure or confuse its continually oppression of Palestinians. That is the obvious but false premise behind so much of what the narrator speaks about, that Israel has been continually wronged and mistreated and only those who recall the violent or unjust aspects of its history are obstructing its fair treatment, and that if you question this narrative you are supporting the wholesale destruction the state. This last is a foolish suggestion but one commonly used by oppressors who know they have no legitimacy for their actions. Yet we can take slight comfort in the fact that the mainstream Israeli narrative (as opposed to the one that most Palestinians, and many Jews around the world know) is now acknowledged to have so such serious holes in it that at least mention of the Nakhba must be made to maintain credibility. If you read this and find your blood boiling, please go back and read what I said above about the false choice of either being completely against or with the Israeli state. Anyone with a brain and a desire for justice and compassion will be able to see this video is ignoring the elephant in the room of Israeli history, and the only way to do justice to that state is to do justice to our Palestinian neighbors.
Totally agree with you Matthew… video is full of crap … just forgot the Nakba and the cleansing of Palestinians in order to creat a Zionist state called Israel in 1948
Palestinians 750000 did not just leave you ignorant person… they were forced to leave after acts of violence, terror and rape and murder of whole villages … 530 villages in fact and cities like Yaffa where my grandparents and parents were born renamed and my grandparents houses takes over by European settlers
This is not Independence Day but a catastrophe day
It’s the Damgana that needs to be discussed more.
Why does this channel, which mostly covers very serious subjects, always have presenters who keep making stupid, childish jokes? It's so ridiculous and annoying.
I agree. Many of their videos are detailed and well-researched but the unfunny, cheesy jokes kind of ruin the vibe.
Every so often, I'm watching a fantastic video that I want to show to friends and family. I end up not showing it to anyone because of the embarrassing jokes.
Thank you for this feedback! I can be sure to pass it along to the scriptwriters

How about you call it....Palestine.
Why would they call their country in the name of their ancient archnemesis in biblical times?! The Jews were forced to live under that horrible name for far too long, while the ancient Philistines already disappeared from the face of this plant more than 2000 years ago! They no longer need to live in the mercy of any foreign entity, and has the right for self determination in their historic homeland and under the original name of their ancient kingdom!
It would be incorrect to call it that, seeing that there has never been a country with that name.
@@GPBKM Just imagine how absurd it is to steal someone's land because your ancestors were banished 2,000 years ago. Imagine if we applied that standard across the board The dirty secret is that most ancient Jews stayed, changed religions, and eventually became the very Palestinians Israel dominates and oppresses. And oh, ok, there was no official country with that name in the era before nation states in their current form. Wow, shocker. There's also never been a nation named "Ireland." I guess there must be no Irish people. That's how logic works, right Israelis?
We all know by now that the victor's write the history and we have been lied to about almost EVERYTHING!.... jus sayin
Yh its palestine tho
No, it's not! No matter how many times you will repeat that lie...
Nah, there has never been such a country.
@@cosimodirondo972 that what they tells u dumb, my great grandma had a bible that has the map of palestine, it got the name palestine over it …
@@AndrewTota It was named Syria Palestina after the Bar Kochba revolt in around 132 CE by the romans. This was way before there were anyone who we call Palestinians today occupied it.
So called palestinians don't have even own language like persians and egyptians
Before Israel it was Palestine
And before Palestine it was also Israel so there you go. We've come full circle.
Before Israel there was NEVER a sovereign Palestinian state there, ever in history! If you have the exact year your Palestine was established as a country, please enlighten us all here... Waiting...
Cannot even say the word Palestinians
"Palestinian" as a noun is nonexistent in ancient literature. In the main, Arabs only began calling themselves "Palestinians" in the 1960s for political expediency.
