As an Arab i wish one day i stay alive to see jews and arabs together no hate no problems no BS !
Muslims always lived with jews and christians in peace in so many countries but shall never live in peace under a zionism occupation which doesnt want muslims or christians to have their own lands and homes and kicked them out. An apartheid with peace? How come
No problems between them already the problem is with the zionists and their occupation since 1948 and illegal settling, their apartheid, terrorism, land and home stealing. Many countries already have jews, muslims and christians live among each other..if the problem exists in israhell you should know why then.
We will get there, don't listen to haters 💙🕊️
I thought they already do you live together with no hate and no problems but they do it either inside Israel or inside the US.
I agree jews belongs in Germany 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣@@joshbertrum
I have conversations with an elderly Israeli Arab gentleman that lives in an Arab town adjacent to mine. I asked him once about their living conditions in Israel compared to that of their families in the Palestinian authority, Jordan, Egypt, Syria etc. He said that Israel is the only place in the middle east that their life is worth anything. A relative of his living in Jordan needed heart medication, and the price in Jordan was unaffordable for them. He asked an Israeli doctor for a prescription, and he bought the medicine for her in Israel cheaply because it is subsidized by the state.
I’m just a Singaporean 🇸🇬 Catholic who has been to both Israel and West Bank. Too much suffering on both sides. Hope that Mr Gil Shuster can be a tool for peace.
🦁✌️
It's not fair to say that both sides
Palestinians do not have Palestinian occupation forces as Jews have
Palestinians don't have Muslims illegal settlers just like Jews have
Please Be fair and stand in solidarity with the oppressed
Great content as always
Interesting question. It’s nice to see how easy going the Israeli Arab are.
Just like the Israelites that didn’t leave Egypt. They were super friendly still because they had it all., they weren’t willing to leave everything for good. So what you’re looking at is a bunch of westernize Arabs, of course they love their Pringles and cookies still. Also, the amount of drugs given when they’re done.. super excited for all that ecstasy. Anyways, you can turn any human into a suffering pile of human… or an arrogant piece of scum.
It'd be interesting to know how many have relatives in other MENA countries.
Less than your relatives in Poland @@DavidZ4-gg3dm

Yes, they are the semitic people. shared with the same genetics
Except for Jewish from Poland, Ukraine, USA, Germany and etc
@@AKAK-WiQ No longer true on most cases. I'm three-quarters Ashkenazi and most new people I've met thought I was Mizrachi. I know a pure Russian-Polish Jew that could pass for a Yemenite.
God gave 613 commandments for Jews and the 7 for Gentiles.
It's completely not true. There is a small percentage of Mizrahi Jews who can pass for Arabs, and even a smaller percentage of Arabs who can pass for Israeli Jews. I know many Israelis and Arabs so i can tell the difference even easier than telling apart Japanese or Korean people. When you add mannerism to the equation it makes the differences even more contrast. Even the Druz gentleman in this video looked different than the Israeli Arabs. Maybe it seems like this because most Arabs Israelis are happy. They live better than most people in the middle east.
Good video, I enjoyed this one a lot.

Try allowing your interviewees to answer your questions rather than suggesting an answer for them, such as "when did they leave?" followed by "was it in 1948, during the Nakba?".
Corey is finally asking the juicy questions!
Really I don't think it should be seen as such. It's only normal that descendents of Palestinian Arabs who didn't flee the newly-created Israel, would have relatives among those who fled. They shouldn't be seen as a fifth column of enmity just because of that simple fact.

The land of Israel has been populated by the Jewish people since 2000 BC. Here's the timeline, in case you didn't realize that its there homeland, .
1900 BC: Abraham chosen as the Father of the Jewish Nation.
1900 BC: Isaac, Abraham's son, rules over Israel.
1850 BC: Jacob, son of Issac, rules over Israel.
1400 BC: Moses leads the people out of Egypt and back to Israel.
1010 BC: King David unites the 12 tribes into one nation.
970 BC: King Solomon, son of David, builds the first temple structure in Jerusalem
930 BC: Israel is divided into two kingdoms, the Kingdom of Israel and the Kingdom of Judah.
800s BC: The rise of the prophets, God's messengers.
722 BC: Kingdom of Israel is conquered by Assyrians.
605 BC: Kingdom Judah is conquered by the Babylonians.
586 BC: Solomon's Temple is destroyed by the Babylonians.
539 BC: Persians conquer the Babylonians and take control of Israel.
538 BC: The Jews return to Israel from exile.
520 BC: The Temple is rebuilt.
450 BC: Reforms made by Ezra and Nehemiah.
433 BC: Malachi is the end of the prophetic age.
432 BC: The last group of Jews return from exile.
333 BC: The Greeks conquer the Persian empire.
323 BC: The Egyptian and Syrian empire take over Israel.
167 BC: Hasmonean's recapture Israel, and the Jews are ruled independently.
70 BC: Romans conquer Israel.
20 BC: King Herod builds the "second" temple
6 BC: Jesus Christ is born in Bethlehem
70 AD: Romans destroy the temple
After that, the people were captives to the Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, and Crusaders. Through all of these events, the Jewish people continued to live in Israel. There were more or less of them, depending on the centuries, but there was never a time when the Jews didn't live in the land. They stayed, they built their communities, they raised their families, practiced their faith and they suffered at the hands of many outside rulers, but they always kept their faith. It is what sustains them, even now.
In 1948, the UN established the State of Israel, the nation of Jews. Don't buy the Palestinian lies that they are entitled to the land. It simply is not true.
Thank you for your great comment!
Quite a jump from 70 to 1948

What about Syria Lebanon
Whoever sees the faces of Israeli Arabs knows that the Israeli occupation is better than the occupation of Hamas and the occupation of Bashar al-Assad and Sisi. We have not seen demonstrations from Israeli Arabs. Perhaps they prefer Israel over Abbas Abu Mazen
they have done burning down synagogues. "In little more than a week in May 2021, Arab rioters set ablaze 10 synagogues and 112 Jewish residences, looted 386 Jewish homes and damaged another 673, and set 849 Jewish cars on fire. There were also 5,018 recorded instances of Jews being stoned. Three Jews were murdered and more than 600 were hurt." . Look up 'Kristallnacht in Lod'.
Are you blind there were plenty of demonstrations particularly after the nation state law was introduced

I would heavily caution people from believing Palestinians are either Egyptian or Jordanian. Obviously over time they are going to have family with people in the region. Arab families are large. The Palestinians have been living in what is now Israel/Palestine from the beginning of time essentially. Eventually they became Jewish, then converted to Christianity, then converted to Islam. It was only when the Jewish diaspora came and ethnically cleansed that they moved. Normally conquering groups just assimilate everyone like the Han dynasty conquered everyone in what is now China and told them they are Han ethnicity
95% of Arab Israelis when surveyed said the preferred Israeli vs. Palestinian rule.
Source: trust me bro!
@@busk1999Just Google “Poll: 93 percent of eastern Jerusalem Arabs prefer Israeli rule”
It is absolutely true, and much of it has to do with the fact that the Israeli Arabs’ minds are not polluted by deranged Jihadist nonsense promoted in the UNRWA schools.
The Palestinians can, and should, have their own state but only once they are deradicalized.
It might take an entire generation for that to happen, unfortunately.

תשאל אם יש בעזה
Do the Israeli arabs speak Hebrew or arabic?
Both, Arabic at home because that's what their parents and family speak, Hebrew outside because that's the language of the majority.
Most Israeli Arabs live in Arabic speaking towns, but when they go outside of town (usually for work or study) they speak Hebrew to Israeli Jews
Their main language id Arabic and they speak it in their home and communities (if they are living in an Arab community) and outside of those circle they speak Hebrew.
modern Palestinian-Israeli Arabic has a lot of loan words from hebrew (magen, masach, balagan, Machsan etc....)
In the videos you see from Corey most of them speak Hebrew, since he doesn't speak Arabic. He rarely needs his translator in those videos, unlike in the Palestinian towns where he does need her since few people speak English and hardly anyone speaks Hebrew there.

So, most of them don't have family in Jordan, and if they do, they are Palestinians - refugees who were expelled by Israel. And they are not Jordanians, they are expelled Palestinians.

@@ayalaostrovsky9550 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸 israelis are ukranian
They are Palestinians (not Israeli Arabs) who are obliged to accept the current context of this "conflict" ; they don't want to lose their properties and they resisted to keep their homes and places in Haifa, Ramla, Safad , Sakhnin , Um el Fahm ...etc so they remained in their land eventhough it's occupied by foreigners and that's kind of resistance and patriotism too (it wasn't the same chance for all of them ) !
And The blue citizenship was pushed on them as long as they want to stay in their places
And for the comments which say that "they are tolerant and not violents like others " , simply because they are not exposed to the same tyranny in the West Bank and in Gaza !
Palestinians of the West Bank and Gaza are human beings too but they were dehumanised , targeted , killed and arrested for the last 75 years unlike the Palestinians of 48 who may face just racism , so it's pretty normal that this would impact their caracter /personality !!!
There are 3 to 4 Millions Palestinians in the Arab world (not only in Jordan, Syria and Lebanon) , Palestinians live and exist in all Arab countries (just to refute the idea that other Arab countries do not want to accept them !) Some Arab governments and even the majority of Palestinians refuse to get out of their land because they know that they won't be able to be back and it would be a second Nakba for them (the purpose of the zionist entity) !
Just to finish , in 2015 i met a Palestinian from Khan Yunis in a diffrent country who has lost 23 members of his family because of this "conflict" ....sorry, but none can love u or have "peace" with u if u kill almost his entire family !!!
Edit : Corey is doing a good job and he is realising after all these years of this channel an empathy and or an understanding of the Palestinian cause . however, it's still biaised in the choice of titles, words and sometimes interrupting or vehiculating to other topic when some Palestinians give their unwanted opinion !!!
The conflict did not begin in 1948, much less did Israel begin it. At that time, the Arab League declared war - in reality it did not do so, it attacked treacherously. But as I said, the conflict did not start there, nor did it start with the "Arab revolt" between 1936 and 1939 which, again, was started by the Arab side. Nor did it begin with the "Buraq Uprising" in 1929, when Muslims decided that "the wailing wall" belonged to them, because there Muhammad had bound his centaur on his "mystical journey" to Jerusalem. But it did not start there, nor in 1921 with the Jaffa riots, nor in 1906, when the Arabs became very angry because the Jews did not keep their Purim celebrations a secret, nor in 1886 with the attack on Petah. Tikva, because I could also go back to 1834 with the looting of Safed and thus continue in time, reaching Saladin, the Pact of Umar and the expulsion from the Arabian Peninsula. But, although that is still true, the current conflict began at the beginning of 1920, it is the same one that continues to this day and and all the episodes of this just like October 7, it was started by the same people. If they wanted to end the problems, all they would have to do was stop attacking. And what you call dehumanizing, I call it rather that they can no longer do what they want and get away with it, the Umar pact no longer applies. When they understand it, there will be peace, meanwhile, if they do it, they pay for it...

@@rajm2626 In 1860 there was only 350,000 people in the land, and 30,000 were Jews. The Ottomans charged the Jews high taxes to live there without full rights. Then in 1914, the Ottomans murdered or expelled 7,000 to 10,000 Jews when they created the Armenian genocide.
There have been Jews in Israel for over 3500 years.
Raj, you do realize most Palestinians are not from Palestine.
Realize there was over 1 million Jews in the former Ottoman Empire between Syria, Lebanon, Greece, Egypt and many other lands.
In 1922, the British census, there were 750,000 people in the land. There was NO existing country or government of the many different peoples that lived there. There was no Palestine for the 400 years of the Ottoman Empire, they had that land divided into 3 to 5 Sanjaks, all ruled by the Ayelet of Damascus, Syria.
After the Ottomans left, what should have happened to the less than 1 million people living there? Most that came into the land as foreigners, Muslim refugees from the Austro-Hungarian occupation of Bosnia-Herzegovina, the Crimean war, the Balkan wars, the Turkish war of Independence, and World War I, the other people who came to the land were the Arab laborers from nearby lands, looking for better living conditions for their families.
All the Ottoman Empire lands had many different peoples living in them, there was No One people known as Palestinians in the land in 1918 when the Ottomans lost to the Allies. The Ottomans signed their lands over to the Allies. The Allies turned the responsibility of the lands over to the League of Nations. The League of Nations created 3 Mandates for most of the lands to create new countries, while giving the people living in those lands some government stability, so no terror group took hold.
The 3 Mandates created were the Mandate of Mesopotamia (Iraq), the Mandate of Syria and Lebanon, and the Mandate of Palestine. The British were made the administrators of the Mandate of Palestine. The British had been in the land several years and knew many of the different peoples in the lands.
The Entire League of Nations voted unanimously for the Mandate of Palestine which had one mission only, to reconstitute the Jewish homeland in the Area of Palestine.
*_"Whereas recognition has thereby been given to the historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine and to the grounds for reconstituting their national home in that country"_*
The British illegally gave away 77% of the Mandate lands that became trans-Jordan to the Arab Hashemites, who are from Saudi Arabia, not that land, but nobody says anything about that??? This was the Arab state created there before Israel became a state. This left only 23% of the land to become the future Jewish state.
There was no other people discussed in the Mandate of Palestine Charter except the *_"non-Jewish communities in Palestine"_* meaning the; Muslims, Christians, Druze, Samaritans, Bahai, Mandeans, Orthodox, Shiites, Salafis, Sunnis, Syrians, Circassians, Chechins, Bedouins, Fellahins, Bosniaks, Kurds, Turks, Berbers, Slavs, Greeks, Albanians, Arameans, Georgians, Persians, Tartars, Ashiri, Mongols, Sudanese, Armenians, Maronites, Lebanese, Egyptians, Jordanians, and more...........
The British held many different seminars and conferences inviting representatives of the major groups for their input, the Jews came to every conference, the Arab groups petitioned the League of Nations to not make "Palestine" a separate state, they were part of Syria, as Southern Syria, and that Palestine was a Zionist Invention.
The British at the Peel Commission in 1937 offered the Arabs 80% of the land for another State, they turned this down as they didn't want the Jews to even have the 17% offered to them (4% of the original Mandate lands).
Then the UN Partition Plan offered the Arabs another state on 44% of the land. The Arabs were partitioned the Best farmland of the Jordan Valley with existing infustructure, while the Jeww were partitioned the malarial swamplands they cleared in the North as well as the entire Negev desert.
As for the UN Partition Plan resolution 181, as all General Assembly Resolutions it was a non-binding resolution. It would only become law, if both sides agreed. The partitioned Jewish state had 500,000 Jews with 400,000 Arabs and 92,000 Bedouins, with 100,000 Jews stuck in Jerusalem as an international city. The Arabs partitioned state had 800,000 Arabs with 10,000 Jews. So, the proposed Jewish state had half their population Arab, and nobody thought that was a problem?
The Early Jewish leaders appealed to the Arabs to stay and help build a country together. The Arabs had 5 Arab armies attack the one day old country of Israel.
You seem to not understand the history at all..
Quote from Zuheir Mohsen a senior member of the Palestine Liberation Organization,
"There's no such thing as a separate Palestinian people, there's no difference between Jordanians Palestinians Syrians... the Palestinian identity exists only for tactical reasons. The creation of a Palestinian state is a new instrument in our ongoing war against the state of Israel and for the purpose of our Arab unity".
