I am a "secular" Muslim from South Africa, and I l really like your programs. You address complex issues in such a frank, honest, and simplified manner that would put many "academics" to shame. Thank you.
Indeed he does outshine these “academics”.
Ever heard of the Michigan Muslims like boxer Mohammed Ali?
@@MichiganUSASingaporeSEAsia Seriously? I'm shocked. I can't believe it. I had no idea he's from Michigan.
@@MichiganUSASingaporeSEAsiafunny how he took the name of a slave owner
@@etsequentia6765 he lived in michigan. I think Benton harbor. He was born and raised in Louisville KY.
I am Lebanese. I don't hate Isreal or its people. I believe we all should live in peace as God Almighty willed it.
Thank you for your videos.
May God Almighty Protect us all.
Hope that is true for you, it is mostly the government and leaders that push and stir up the trouble when most of us just want to live in peace. If the world would just let go. But that is coming when one will come first ( satan ) don't follow him when he speaks of world peace it's a trap, only when Jesus comes at the seventh trump will all be in peace in heaven
thank you. i am Israeli and know many Lebanese who don't hate us. we don't hate you either!
I would love to visit Lebanon for the lamb sandwiches.
@@bdadolph same. And I saw old pictures of lebanon. It looks so pretty:)
@@tahimwaicijI'm glad to hear that. I'm half Lebanese. I visited Jerusalem and youths of extremists Israelis spat at me and the Nuns at the local church. Sadly the Israeli police did nothing to help.
I am from the Netherlands and was happily surprised with your "political not correct" explanation of the problems that Israel is facing. In 20 minutes you gave me an idea of what is actually going on in your country, that is much more informed than what we generally see and read here. I will share it with people that I know. Stay well and love from Holland.
I’m Polish, having lived in the states for 17 years now. I always felt drawn the to Jewish culture and was often mesmerized by the images of pre-war Poland with bustling cities and towns with very active Jewish communities. I came to this channel to find more information about the horrible recent events in the Gaza area. I stayed for the well researched historical, cultural, and religious facts, and fun tours around Jerusalem, and now find myself digging deeper into more subjects. It is my dream to visit Israel one day. Keep up the good work!
Very similar for me, from Latvia. Brave, prcise and concise explanations, without claim of ultimate impartiality (which is a myth in itself). Opened my eyes to various bits of Israel's situation i roughly heard before, but couldn't confirm due to various political and ideological stances pushing own agendas - and lately a whole lot of disinformation. This content could be longer and more in-depth, but the guy is a godsend (pun intended). Shalom to Poland!
ruclips.net/user/shorts8tVymVhf4xg?si=tHRGhGPosFavPYJn
i have a great deal of respect for poland and the polish people. back in 39 it took two superpower neighbors to suppress the people of poland. it is a shame to me that the british have covered up the acts of heroism by poles fighting in the british army in the second world war.
Thank you for your content
Jewish culture?
I learned more about Israel, Jordan and Palestine just by watching 3 of your videos than watching a year of news in the US. Thank you.
Well yeah
We have been watching your videos since Oct.7th, 2023. Thank you so much for your Israeli perspectives on what's happening in Israel.
Here in Canada, Islam is rapidly taking over and now they're targeting Jewish people here and Christians.
Your ignorance is astounding.
@@busterbiloxi3833 Just curious, which part of the history outlined in the video do you say is ignorant?
As a recent immigrant to Israel and an individual who lived in five countries, I have certain observations regarding the Jewish State. Israel is a better integrated, happier nation than many other nations, despite the interminable wars and terrorist attacks. What I see is families, communities and many, many children getting together, celebrating Shabbat and all the other holidays. There are far more children here than in all the other Western countries, and they are treated with love and attention.
As regards the Israeli Arabs, they are better integrated within the nation, than in Europe, USA, and Canada. They are present in the Parliament, the Cabinet, hospitals, pharmacies, schools, supermarkets, etc., and work hard. The world has become accustomed to judge Israel through the lens of an anti-Israel/anti-Semitic international media, but objectively speaking, the quality of life is better here than in many other parts of the world.
Israel is the best place to work as a conflict zone reporter.
Relocate the family to Tel-Aviv, take the kids to school in the morning, drive an hour to the organized riot area (no press-> no point in having riots), take photos/video, drive an hour back to the office, edit, send the material to head office and leave in time to pick up the kids from school, then have a nice evening at a nice restaurant, bar, theater, concert, movies or at a full convenience home.
Now try doing it in Darfur, Sudan, South Sudan, Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Mali, Eritrea, Somaliland, Western Sahara, Niger, Libya, or any other of the dozens of conflict zones of the middle east.
Add the fact that just mentioning Israel or Jerusalem immediately raises some attention in the ears of those who have a little Jewish, Christian or even Islamic background, a guaranty for some viewers rating.
Add the free press policy of Israel that allows the presence foreign journalists even with an explicit hostile agenda like Al-Jazeera.
Now you know why Darfur gets little to no coverage, while Israel has the highest number of foreign reporters (and reports).

In Israel you really feel that it is a community. People are especially quick to help you. Strangers will point out the cheapest meat option to you in the supermarket when they see that you are lost and as soon as a language barrier is there they will just ask around if somebody can translate.
@@lisal5718 Your comment was excellent and I appreciate it. God bless you, from here in São Paulo, Brazil
I was in Sinai when it was controlled by Israel and again when it was given back to Egypt. Almost without exception, every person that we asked which they preferred, they overwhelmingly said that they preferred their life when it was under the Israeli flag. Tourism was good, the infrastructure was being built, people were not afraid. And I think you are very correct when you say that most Palestinian Arabs when given the choice of leaving Israel, they prefer Israel. Otherwise they can leave. They're not being held hostage.
Yes but in the light of Oct 7th 2023 they simply are not welcome. Some of us in Israel have had to fight but not physically, to stay. It’s a privilege and an honour to be here, the Gazans have been given everything but blew it , no one wants them but the left wing woke supporters in the west and if they really comprehended how some of the so called innocent “civilians” slaughtered raped tortured and delighted in evil, really got this, like Silence of the Lambs psychopaths? They really really would not wanting them in their homes or countries as the Islamic jihad philosophy is slaughter the infidels. It’s happening in Africa right as I speak but no moral outrage from the left wing there. To busy backing the Islamic jihadists who actually murdered some of the peace loving Israelis who lived close to Gaza but were slaughtered anyway( may their memory be blessed)
As a native English speaker I am humbled by your precise, clear and very articulate presentations, especially considering that you have mastered at least 3 other languages as well.
Absolutely genuine and frank. If we were all like this, the world would be a much better place.

Love your channel, just discovered this last week and find it very informative. I'm a Sikh and understand what it's like being a minority. Stay strong brother
Every time I see a Sikh in public where I live, which is a Southern US large town without many and most of whom think Sikh = Muslims = Hindus = Arabs = Indians = anyone from a -stan, etc., I want to say ‘Sikh turban bro’ lol. Mostly because it’s funny and also so they know not all of us think brown people who don’t speak Spanish = Muslim = terrorist or whatever which is embarrassingly commonplace still even today. But on the other hand, I know some non-Sikh people wear turbans (though I can usually accurately tell non-Sikh turban wearers because they’ll have some other indicator that they’re Hindu or Muslim but I don’t wanna be wrong so I usually don’t say anything lol).
Thanks Oren. We support Israel. No Ceasefire. From United States of America

I have problems listening to him while an old woman on a bench is air drumming at 2:40 in the video.
I like you because you are nice,Hamble and open minded..I just wanted to ask why jew don't believe in Jesus when you were waiting for the Message before de distruction of the second temple? When Isaiah 53 is saying clearly the man of sorrow who was pierced for the Israeli people aswell,it can't be that jew people suffer for Israeli people,has no sense, why the new testament is prohibited when is written by you and all of them were jew? Why don't belive that God took the human form when even Torah said He did this before? You know that the new testament is a continuous Torah with all your Torah said,but fulfilled?? And you know that in new testament said that Israeli people have a veil on their eyes son they can't see the truth because of the sin? God bless you all ..Christian people loves you because Yoshua tech us to ..and I think that no one in this history never showed more love and forgiveness then Him
Great video.Thank YOU! We so appreciate you and hope to travel to Israel some day.
Iam arab israeli and i agree 100% with u
Arab israeli means Arab who settled in Palestine at the same time as when the israelis came from Belarus?
@@mubiltelefunskytelefon no, it means an Arab who was born to a family that used to live under the Turkish, and then under the British and now under Israel. And his family has full rights, he can be elected and elect. Not like his ancestors during the ottoman period and British mandate. But do facts really bother you?
@@leucistic9724 ottoman* not turkish. Palestinians lived under arab califates before that and before that under roman rule.
Tell me more about how the jewish occupiers from eastern europe gives the rights to displaced palestinians to return to their homelands instead of denying them that right while giving american and european jews citizenship and allow them to build settlements
@@mubiltelefunskytelefon I’m the 11th generation of my family here in Israel. My family was here way before that, but this is as far as our records show. This is almost 500 years back. So you are telling me that I occupied this land? Anyway, I’m happy to tell you that Israel, which is one of the richest countries in the world today, and which is a country that many Arabs are proud to be part of, is going to stay here for a very long time. I’m happy to educate people over the internet, but it means nothing to us as a country that a bunch of bleeding hearts don’t like us or has antisemitic issues. Maybe it is better to concentrate your efforts on places that really *needs your attention, such as Syria, Lebanon or Iran.
@@leucistic9724 your family lived here 500 years you say then you are a tiny minority of palestinian jews. However you supported the occupiers in ethnically cleansing Palestinians who your family deemed to be not part of the "chosen race of God" in favor of the eastern european colonizers.
You are truely an example of what democracy is supposed to be. You demonstrate the willingness to have the hard dicussions. I am glad I found your channel and just a little while ago my Israeli cousin mentioned it to my sister. Thanks..
As a South African who is also living in a very complicated country (on many levels!) that we love dearly, I have compassion with Israel! ... I absolutely LOVE your videos! I have learned so much! It is just heartbreaking that society today is so ill-informed and yet só judgemental.
Its incredible that people claim israel is an apartheid state when all israeli citizens have equal rights under law. I feel like its an insult to south africa and everything south africans went through. Cant imagine how complicated it must be.
@@useyourdelusion6807 Occupied Palestinians aren't treated equally at all. Gaza is being flattened
@@berserk1437 occupied Palestinians have their own elected government. They arent israeli citizens. Fatah and Humas are responsible for their rights. They are occupied because they have been openly jean oh sidal since Ww2. They attempted to jean oh side Palestinian Jews/Israelus on 4 occasions. OF couse they are occupied. Israel would be stupud not to occupy the WB under these conditiins. Rofl. This is the kind of ignorance im talking about. Thank you for displaying it openly.
They are occupied because theyve openly acknowledged their jean oh sidal intent since ww2 and even earlier if we are being historical but i wony bother getting into the fine details as you obviously have a limited capacity for intellect. So i wouldnt want to overwhelm that tiny thing you call a brain.
And Gaza is being bombed in an actual war doofus.
Syrian war, 200,000 civilians perished children gassed, yemen 140,000 civiliabs at least 20,000 children. Iraq and afghanistan 450,000 civilians perished with who knows how many children... so what do you have to say to the US, Russia, Saudi, and Syria? Anything? Didnt think so.
But 12,000 perish, many of whom are Humas combatants being counted as civilians, and NOW thats too much for your ignorant, sheltered and fragile mind? When Israel does it for good reasons and with minimum casualty? You vain and spiteful hypocrite.
The Palestinians official position, both Humas and the PA in the WB is the complete annihilation of israel. They dont even hide it yet mooks like you ignore that fact. The fact thst palestinians have never been open to 2 states, their openly stated goal to thus day is ONE state, ALL land, NO jews. Thats not my opinion thats their openly stated goal and has been for 75 plus years.
Do you know the founding father of the modern palestinian national movement was an ACTUAL Nasi? Not a sorta Nasi, an actual Nasi who allued Palestinian muslims with adolph and spent 5 years of the war spreading nasi propaganda in the muslim world. Their goal was to bring the camps to palestine. This was before israel even existed.
And your sorry behind simps for actual Nasis. As ww2 is when the fundamental palestinian position was solidified. And they have not stopped trying or declaring their official intent since. But i guess these are small and insignificant things to such a kind, wise and well informed homunculus such as yourself. Grow up child.
As an American Modern Orthodox Jew, I visited Israel in the Summer of 2019. It is such a friendly place. From the Ultaorthdox man who helped us park in a tight spot, to the secular Jew who gave up his seat for my mother. Even an Israeli Arab helped me when I was confused about which grade to fill my car with gas. (I’m from NJ we don’t pump gas). There is so much love there. Always focus on the good!
Ty fellow Jerseyan and fellow non-pumper
My neighborhood in Hadera has Israeli Arabs,Jews, secular, ultraorthodox, Ashkenazi,Sephardi, NorthAfrican,Ethiopian as well as refugees from Eritrea. There is a live and let live vibe and I love it 😀
Do you live well together?
Very well indeed. We are more integrated than neighborhoods I've lived in in NY. I know all of Israel isn't this way, but I think it's not just here. Towns like mine ,Haifa and others are not in any conflict
@@yochevedbrachasimon4979 Thank you, good to know!
When visited Israel twenty yrs ago I rode on buses with Arabs and had friendly conversations and also went to parks where my friends and I sat next to Arabs and shared various things. When I came back to America I told everyone it’s not just what you see on the news! My friends and are Jewish and the Arabs knew it. I love how Oren tells it like it is!
This is like neighborhoods in the southern United States. We all live together in peace. But when we turn on the television the news reports have all the races pitted against one another...THIS IS A LIE! We are so invested in each other through inter marriage and unbreakable friendships that racial tension between us is a laughable and an extremely self destructive ideology of the past. Let's leave racism in it's 50 year old grave where it belongs...dead but never forgotten least we repeat our selfish mistakes. The south is not racist. Dont EVEN try to make me laugh. Media is a lie.
I am referring to all of your videos here. Apologies for that but it is easier than writing this a dozen times. I lived in Israel for nearly 7 years. I drove into Palestine (West Bank) most days and Gaza occasionally. I worked and lived with the security forces on both sides of the walls and have many friends on both sides. Indeed I also visit every year and was there again last in August 2023. I completely recognise what you are saying and why. I watch all your stuff and from my limited perspective, it is hard to fault the content of any of your productions because they are factually-based not emotionally or religiously based. So for that - Thank you and keep it up.
I have one small experience to share here, because you are right. ~10 years ago when I was studying to become a beautician in Hungary, I had a classmate and her dad was egyptian and her mum was hungarian so she was studying in Egypt in her early life (I m not sure how long though). She told us that in Egypt it's a subject matter to hate the jewish, they learn it in school. Then we asked if she hated jewish and she said yes. It's still hard to digest...
I'm also Hungarian, and many years ago, I stayed for a few days at a student hostel in Paris visiting a Hungarian friend who was Jewish. She presented to me some of her friends, among them an Indonesian guy. One evening, we were sitting as a group talking, and my Hungarian friend left the room for a few minutes. A few minutes later, the Indonesian guy started talking badly about Jews - not extremely terrible things, just the usual prejudices. As soon as I heard that, I pointed out to him that our mutual friend was also Jewish. He quickly fell silent...
I guess that people in Muslim countries, especially where there are few Jews like in Indonesia, often unthinkingly hear about these prejudices against Jews, perpetuating them and never questioning them.
@@fruzsimih7214Hadith narrated by Abi Hurira:
"The last hour won't come before the Muslims would fight the Jews and the Muslims will kill them so Jews would hide behind rocks and trees. Then the rocks and tree would call: oh Muslim, oh servant of God! There is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. Only "Gharkad" tree, it is of Jews' trees."
This is what Muslims are being taught about the Jews.
@@fruzsimih7214 Yes, that is very true.
Many so called "moderate muslims" are very h8teful towards the Jews. A lot of other people are very prejudiced too of course.
There is also fear on the Muslim side because of the same attitudes towards them.
I am concerned about rising tensions between these two factions during this time.
✌️
Jews hate everybody in there stolen soil outside snakes
Maybe they hate Jews for not being Muslim (like others) but as Egyptians they might still be mad at them because they once left Egypt and the Egyptians had to bake their bricks themselves.😎
Israel is a unique country, with unique challenges and joys, and it's important to balance the narratives that others are putting out there. Please share more videos similar to this one. Thank you so much...🙏

Narrated 'Umar bin Al-Khattab:
That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "If I live - if Allah wills - I will expel the Jews and the Christians from the Arabian Peninsula."
Sahih al-Bukhari 4557
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Verse:--"You (true Muslims) are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind." means, the best of peoples for the people, as you bring them with chains on their necks till they embrace Islam.
Sahih Muslim 22
It has been narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah said:
I have been commanded to fight against people till they testify that there is no god but Allah, that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, and they establish prayer, and pay Zakat and if they do it, their blood and property are guaranteed protection on my behalf except when justified by law, and their affairs rest with Allah.
Surah (9:29): “Fight against Christians and Jews until they pay the tribute readily, being brought low.”
Surah 5:51
O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends one to another. He among you who taketh them for friends is (one) of them. Lo! Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.

When I went to Israel,( German with interest in the problems in Middle East ) I found out everything as you are telling. I used to have friends from many Arab countries and on my return from Israel, I could not but defend Israel since everyone, each and everyone said to me: you are German, Hitler did the right thing, and they expected me to agree! Of course I did not. Some are Christians, some non believers , that might have saved my life 😢
So your saying you wouldve been killed or beaten you because you as a German didnt like hitler. Well as a Arab Muslim who lives in a Arab Muslim country this is the dumbest I heard so far whether you like hitler or not is not what they care about and the reason why they might like him is that he fought France and Britian (those who colonized their countries) also he genocided the jews and the survivors of the genocide founded Israel that plus them being anti-western in general is probably why or they are just goofy racists who think they are cool by liking hitler, Your basically saying that the evil Arab Muslims almost killed or hurt you because you dont like Hitler at least thats what I understood and be rest assured no one really cares anyways we have little to nothing to do with WW2 we were pretty much under occupation by either Vichy France, Brits or Italians during that time.
Did you also had contact to Arab people in Israel?
I'm from Germany and also really interested in this. I have visited Iran this year and I'm really looking forward to visit Israel!
well, they had al-Husseini who literally tried to implement the same "solution" in the region after meeting.... hitler
however you hardly see this mentioned. anti-semitism is more prevalent than people might think
To understand one needs to research the grand mufti of jerusalem, a man by name of husseni. Hes the father of the modern palestinian national movement and an actual Nasi who spent 5 years in germanny, allied with Adolph, spreading nasi propaganda around the muslim world. And especially the arab world. Their plan was to bring the camps to palestine. This is before israel existed.
But hes also the ideoligical father of the modern national movement. Which is why the official position of all palestinian leadership over the last 75 years has been the complete jean oh side of israel.
And people wonder why israel occupies the WB. Its quite simple, if they didnt it would be their doom. They cant allow paledtine to create a milutary or organize until the palestinian leadership stops their openly stated jean oh sudal intent. Its shocking to me so many call israel the oppressor in this. They were the oppressed who turned things around on their oppressor who still wants them eliminated. 99% of what isrsrl does is for its own defense. But the international community makes bilkions of dollars a year on the paly refugee crisis. So they dont want it to end peacefully or at all.
Tbe fact that people who are anti israel dont know or care about this is incredibly disturbing. When they call israel jean oh sidal it amazes me. If they were jean oh sidal, they could have done thst 40 years ago. Insyead they do everything they can to have to limit casualties. The UN and intdrnational community just pander to the palestinian leadership while they openly declare jean oh sidal inyent against israel. Its mindboggling. 😢

My Israeli pilgrimage in 2017 was an experience of a lifetime. Aside from all the incredible Catholic holy places, went to all the important Jewish sites as well and met with my Rabbi-friends. For several years, ran the entire operations of the Jewish Community of Japan (I am Catholic) and where I experienced firsthand all the conflicts that you so well described in the video.
More than all the historical structures, I made it a point to see how local life went about in Israel and was amazed at the relative peace among all kinds of people. My chat with two Israeli Arabs selling their wares at a Jericho marketplace was striking. When asked how life for him was, the old man answered: “We live in peace here. It is politics that makes life complicated and crazy. My two brothers are both gainfully employed in Jerusalem and we are very grateful for that.”
While I had a pretty good understanding of these conflicts, your explanations and methodology of presenting them was very informative. Thanks!
I've learned more about all these issues than I learned in school, college, and 45 years of life. Seriously good.
Though late to your Channel Oren, I am grateful that you speak of these issues.
As a Westerner and ignorant of Israel lifestyles, I find myself learning much from your work.
Thank you.
I was raised Catholic and in the 1970's when I was in high school I was asked out on a date by a Jewish boy. My mother was not thrilled. Now I'm 65 and and love learning everything I can about Israel and its people. Just finished watching Fauda. I really enjoyed watching your video. Very informative and loved your point of view.
@Abraham Mani What does have have to do with the comment above? I was raised Christian also but I was also taught that Jews are Gods chosen people as it is stated in the Bible! And like the person above I also love learning about Judaism (as Jesus himself knew and practiced) and Jewish customs and culture.

Yes and it's amazing to me that there is such a worldly disproportionate amount of attention spent on the Palestinians India and Pakistan. I think islamophobia is a BS phrase because a) it's not like racism you can choose your religion and it's not an ethno religion, b) there are many many legitimately horrific elements of Islam that are actively embraced by current Muslims rather than being a Vestige of the past. Phobia suggests something irrational but I think islamophobes just see it for the way it is
This is so refreshing. And insightful. I’m an attendee at my local synagogue and I’m glad that the Jewish people are open to me and are not fundamental

My son had explained to me that Israel is right in its claims and is a just society that is defending itself throughout the ages. He had read extensively all about its history and your channel confirms exactly what he said all along! Thank you for speaking the truth
I dont know if your son mentiined this. But look up grand mufti of jerusalem husseni. The father of the modern palestinian movement was an actual Nasi that allied the paledtinian with Adolph. He spent 5 years in germany during the war working on Nasi propaganda in the muslim world. Their plan was to bring the camps to palestine.
This was before israel was even created. And people wonder why things are as they are. The palestinian ideology is directly taken from the Nasis. Yet no one talks about this for some reason.
I am so impressed by your delivery, presentation skills, and what you generally had to say. It was most informative. Isreal is on my bucket list. I hope that we can cross paths when the time comes. 🙂
This was a brilliant video. I'm an American, a Catholic with several Israeli friends, as well as many American Jewish friends. I've spent a long time studying Israel - especially Israeli politics - and I will be making my first visit to Jerusalem in October. Highlighting these five fissures in Israeli society, especially in order of importance, was invaluable and gives me a much deeper perspective on the nation that, for better or worse, everyone is invested in to one extent or another.
Thanks! Check out my other videos about Israeli society
Israel is such an interesting place, it's a colourful mosaic.
It’s a beautiful country,the food,the people (some absolutely gorgeous women),the weather,the sites,I can’t wait to return!🇮🇱🌹💕
Congratulations from Spain, Oren. Thanks for such a sincere, honest and didactic video about internal issues in your country, Israel.
Speaking in that way, serene and openly, on problems is the first step to solve or, at least, mitigate them.
I feel so lucky to have discovered your wonderful and Informative series. I live in Berkeley California where many Jews seem to support the Palestinians, even people in my own family! You keep giving me ammunition to fight back, so I have a mailing list of about 25 people that I share your posts with. You also teach me many things that I didn't know about before, even though I have visited Israel in the past, and have been in touch with various distant Israeli cousins. I wish that You Tube had figured out earlier that that I might want to hear your presentations.
Hey, not that far from you.
I love his videos too.
I especially like the way he talks, his accent, and dry sense of humour!
In our very "progressive" "pro Palestinian" area we fly a big Israeli flag on our "free speech" corner.
It's quite an interesting social experience.
Interesting when Ukraine was invaded, their flag went up everywhere.
Not one single Israeli flag anywhere.
I really appreciate your direct way of addressing complex and sensitive topics related to Israel. Thank you for making these videos and teaching us!! Sending love and prayers from America!
So much appreciated. Thank you immensely. I knew most of this and as an Australian Christian visiting in 2018 I got to see first hand the situation. Israel is a modern day miracle!
Let me say it. This was a very good presentation which I personality know after many visits in Israel. Israel is a very wonderful Country in the midst of a unstable part of the world that many does not understand. I wish the best for Israel now and in the future.
That is about all the German I also speak. 😉
I gave up on the two state solution after Oslo. I couldn't believe that Istaeli leaders so naively thought unilaterally withdrawing from Gaza would lead to peace ( they even flew in planeloads if terrorists-PLO from Libya.)

אורן התעלית על עצמך בוידאו הזה!
אני ישראלית ותיארת אותנו בדיוק והגינות. הגעתי לסרטונים שלך בברלין ושמחה להכיר את ההדרכה בישראל.
שנחזיק מעמד פה בארץ הנהדרת שלנו ונשמור על הדמוקרטיה!
אעלה בקרוב סרטון על ילדים בישראל.. לא יהיה לו סוף אופטימי :(
הדמוקרטיה הישראלית תקרוס במאת אחוזים בעתיד הקרוב.
ברגע שרוב האכלוסיה תהיה דתית/חרדית/ערבית לא יהיה שום משמעות לדמוקרטיה בישראל.
בדיוק מה שקרה במצרים שבחרו במורסי דמוקרטית ואז עשו פשוט ביטלו את הדמוקרטיה.
Thank you for breaking things down in detail, was great to learn!!
Once again, your videos are the best at summarizing what a visitor can expect, seek, and maybe even avoid when traveling to Israel. There is no underlying agenda in your commentary, just concise and informative descriptions - and the deadpan humor is much appreciated. Great video.
Wow, Oren! I love it, you're really touching on some sacred cows. Please more "tourist" information on these deeper subjects, as you are correct in that most people want a more profound experience in their travels!
❤️💖💝👊
Total respect for your videos. I really like your honesty and presenting style.
I came across your channel by chance and just started watching your vids one after the other! I have to say that you give an incredible insight on many aspects that are very interesting and not well known, so kudos for that! I have learned so many useful things about Israel in your vids, so thank you for your time and effort and keep up the great work!
Oren, you come across as an incredibly honest man! You are willing to leave yourself vulnerable in saying this! You speak the truth and are to be admired and honored. Take care, my younger brother!!
Bravo! Fresh, insightful and not pressured by political correctness. Defining reality is the essence of intelligent and rational thinking.
I’m all for “political correctness”, the problem is that often the people who define what is “correct” and what isn’t get it wrong.
🇮🇱✝️🕎I am Austronesian, from Eastern Asia..i love your channel on what ever topics about the Land of Israel.Shalom♥️♥️ hallelujah 🤲🤝 Love and blessing from 🪖👑🇮🇱🇮🇱 BORNEO island in south East Asia.. anaiolate the teaching of Islam@muslim brotherhood, hizbollah, Hamas, republic of Iran, Qatar, all over the globe to obtain Peace...🏁🏁🇮🇱🇮🇱
Thank you for this fascinating video. I'm really glad your channel found me. (I don't take any credit for it.) I was fortunate to visit Israel on business years ago and I really enjoyed it. I'm a strong supporter of Israel, but I've wondered about the things you spoke of in this video and other of your videos. I think you deserve a lot of credit for being so honest and open in your videos. Thank you and I wish for peace and safety to your country, which has given so much to the world.
Another excellent video with a perspective we cannot get anywhere else. Thank you for lessons.
whats fascinating is that while hes talking we see interactions between the different groups in the background going on
You’re fascinating. You should be on TV everywhere!!
My wife and I are confessing Christian’s and we like your Videos very much, show they to us how Jews are living. Especially in this video showing the different groups in Israels society was very interesting. You have a real gift of tackling difficult subjects and still showing respect to all the groups you are mention in your videos. Thank you so much!.
Absolutely brilliant video Oren ..Direct, straight to the point, no messing about...Watched this video three times already...Great stuff.
This is SO thorough and beautifully articulated.
Oren this is one of your best videos! It is two years later, 80 something days since Oct 7 2023. I agree no peace ever. As a Jew very enjoyable ❤
Oren, At 24 October 2023, I found your YT channel in this time following theHamas massacre on 07 Oct. I spent 6 months in Israel in 1976. For three monthsI was a volunteer on a kibbutz near Bet Shemesh and then moved on to volunteer on a small new kibbutz on the Lebanon border. I have not been back to Israel since then. Watching your videos has been inspirational Thank you very much. Israel is on my Bucket List. Hopefully, Next year in Jerusalem. 🇦🇺💕🇮🇱
Thank you for being honest, direct, open and objective.
I love hearing other peoples perspectives. I'm reminded of a stanza of an old "Shaker" song from the late 18th early 19th century formation of America. It's called "Simple Gifts" by Joseph Bracket and the last stanza is: "it's a gift to have friends, and a true friend to be; it's a gift to think of others, not only think of me; and when we hear what others really think and really feel, then we'll all live together with a love that's really 'real'". Thanks for sharing, Oren.
That tune was used in a symphony by composer Aaron Copland, so pretty much every American knows it although they don't know they know it. It's a very nice tune.
@@alexcarter8807 Yes the tune to which the lyrics are sung is used in Copland's "Appalachian Spring Suite". In my estimation the tune, including his rendition, is almost as lovely as the lyrics. But the best is the tune TOGETHER WITH the lyrics. There are several renditions that have been uploaded and are available on this platform.
Bro your channel gotta be going through the roof right now... Appreciate the content, most insightful stuff I've been seeing recently by far! I feel like you keep dodging some critical spots here and there but it's such a relief hearing such genious and informed talk in comparison to german Talk-Show blabbering...
Cheers!
I really liked this video. I share your point about not being interested in cafes, but instead in people and societies and what makes people tick. I would actually enjoy more videos like this, for example, a video each dissecting each of these 5 conflicts that you mentioned.
Once again the talent to connect the dots correctly, see the whole picture clearly (and this is no easy task in our current Information Age, which as we all know is full of false, one-sided, biased information that obscures the truth within one big noisy chaos) and explain the essence of it in clear and direct words with integrity and without fear.
Great channel, needless to say :)
Thank you so much!
Oh boy Oren, never been to Israel - tho want to some time in my life. I’m a lapsed Christian down under (Australia) but consider your part of the globe 🌍 almost as the centre of my spiritual consciousness as an Asian immigrant with past Jewish heritage.
You just jelled consciously in 20 mins of your video what perplexed me about the land of Israel & culture - 😮
Well said. This was refreshing to hear.
I love how honest and direct this video is! It's so rare to see somebody speak honestly about these issues. Thank you for uploading this video!
I am Norwegian. Thank you for all the information you are giving us.❤️🇮🇱❤️
Thank you for this video, and I appreciate the maturity that you bring to such a topic. I was surprised by some of the things that you presented and appreciate getting a true point of view on these issues.
Explaining E=MC2 is easier than explaining the Israeli conflicts. This reminds me of a true but funny story:
My father's friend called him up from the US while my father was in Israel. With great concern the friend asks, "have you heard about the crises in Israel?" to which my father replied, "Which one?"
Actually, E=mc² is _really easy_ to explain:
▪︎Any kind of energy "weighs something", it makes things more inert and even gravitates.
▪︎Mass _is_ energy. The mass of a body or a particle is basically it's rest energy.
In both cases, the factor c² is just the constant which you might use to convert between the units kilogramm and joules.
I really appreciate all your content, and this particular video was much appreciated as I plan to come to Israel. It is important to understand what people are going through in the country you travel to because you need to come from a place of understanding in order to give the respect and honour a country deserves from a travelling visitor. Thank you kind sir, well done.
Thanks for these vids and being open to challenge. It’s a serious refresher to come across some content and positions that aren’t held with absolute objection to challenge. I’ve learned quite a lot through the 5 or 6 vids of yours that I’ve watched/listened to and took notes to rabbit hole. Keep going and be blessed.
❤️Love this video, thank you! Going to share with friends.
Appreciate that you tackle these things, definitely learned some things and value your presentation style.
Oren, you are doing good work on so many different levels. I find your videos not only informative but also enlightening - and add in your sense of humor, makes your videos entertaining. I have friends in Tel Aviv and hope one day to get up to Israel to visit them. When possible, I will make use of your well thought-out tour information and tips. If I see you, I'll buy you a beer! Wisconsin!!!!
I think this video and your insights are very valuable. There is a tendency in the US to put everyone in separate boxes based on political ideology, religious beliefs, ethnicity, etc. But as you say, in the morning, we are all in the same place and have to figure out how to get along with each other.
Confronting all those cracks in the society is key to creating a functional society. They interest me as well.
Great presentation! Got more from this 20 minutes than hours of study. All the best to you and your family. Bless your nation. Keep well.
Thanks
I found this video very interesting and eye-opening. I appreciate hearing about issues going on in countries, especially if I'm going to travel to them. I am fortunate to have a Jewish friend who has lived for extended periods a few times in Israel, and she has informed me of some issues. But this video covered more. I am going to get there one day, and knowing some history and current issues will help me to get more out of my eventual visit. Thank you and keep up the stellar work!
Thank you for clarifying many aspects of Israeli life and the dynamics which currently exist. I like your straight forward honest and logical answers on this topic as well as other topics on your site. I learned alot to questions I had that are not easly found elsewhere. Keep sharing. I look forward to your next videos. Peace ✌
This channel is so informative!!
I am Christian from NJ and this has helped me to realize understand the conflicts much better. I have joined this channel and liked all the videos I have heard so far❤❤❤
Excellent, that’s exactly what I am interested in travels, 10% about the cafes, and 90% about the culture, politics, history, and conflicts. You synthesized the 5 types very well and ended up well with the warming that no one feels a singular conflict, but a combination thereof.
Your honesty & candidness is refreshing & greatly appreciated!! Thank you so much for your transparency in sharing. I learn a lot from yr videos. Keep them coming! God bless!
Thanks! Stay strong. Wes from Canada.
What an good idea thanks for doing this and making other people aware of what the conflics are in the Isreali society but it is interesting too hear and i feel soo humble too hear your reasoning and your precice and clear presentations and keep up the good work im standing for your side and hope it goes weel!
Greetings from Atlanta 🇺🇸. Love this type of content! It’s very educational, thank you Oren.
Wow, thanks for this so interesting video!!! I keep learning so much more about Israel through your channel than any other sources. Thanks for your effort! Three thumbs up.
I judge you as a Britney Spears fan ahah lol. I think its amazing that you made this video and that you dare to be clear, there is so much political correctness nowadays and while being polite is important too much correctness can make us lose authenticity, it's good to dare to be honest and to not live in fear. I love that quality in my israeli friends, everybody is honest and direct.
the video is SO HELPFUL because the people who is not from Israel we have a lot of confusion about what is going on for real and we do not know how to aproach the subject.
Thank you for all you share! I am deeply grateful, and I greatly appreciate your kindness, courage, strength and commitment…
Peace, 🙏🙏
Great explanation 💗 thanks Oren
Wonderful video.
I love your more location-centric videos, but these insights into Israeli society are priceless.
Thank you.
you AND the channel are incredible! In one of your last posts you mentioned that you studied in Germany. I truly believe you should do these reels in German for Germans. I am very confident that your German language skills are more than sufficient! I am an American living in Germany since 1970. Your input would be so important! If you also think this could be helpful, I‘ll gladly help! Btw, I have relatives in in Netanya and Tel Aviv, and I think of you guys EVERY DAY! Stay safe! Shalom!
Oren, wow i m blown away by the way you are so open and willing and using your wisdom to tackle and discuss this sensitive topic. Hats off to you.
Shalom, Oren. A very crisp and informative video on different types of conflicts prevailing in Israeli society and your candid views on it.
Toda raba leha for this video !!🙂🙂
Oren, I loved this video. Please, please keep making more like this. You are one of the few online vloggers I've seen who actually wants to show people around the world the real situation in their country. I know you mentioned that it might not be smart to make this kind of video, but I think you should keep doing it because this is what really sets you apart from the rest. Travel vloggers are a dime a dozen but I really think you have something special here! Forget PC. Most western media is controlled by PC so that's all we hear, but I think normal everyday people are less on board with it than the media wants to admit. Keep the videos coming!
Love your videos. I'm a Hebrew school teacher and I plan to use your videos in my classes for Hasbara. כל הכבוד!
Yes i must say i am impressed by your fluent and engaging style.... wishing you prosperity and happiness always❤❤❤
