Around the time that Israelis celebrate Independence Day, Palestinians commemorate “The Nakba,” or “The Catastrophe.” The Nakba was a series of events, centered around 1948, that expelled hundreds of thousands Palestinians from their homeland and killed thousands. The Nakba isn’t the beginning of the story, but it’s a key part of Palestinian history - and the root of Israel’s creation.
Prior to the Nakba, Palestine had a thriving population - largely made up of Arabs - that had lived and worked the land for centuries. But with the founding of Zionism, years of British meddling, and a British pledge to help create a Jewish state in Palestine - things began to change drastically. By 1947, with increasing tensions between Jewish settlers and Palestinian Arabs - the British left Palestine, and the UN stepped in with a plan to partition the land into two states. What followed was known as Plan Dalet: operations by Israeli paramilitary groups that violently uprooted Palestinians. An estimated 15,000 Palestinians were killed, more than 500 villages were decimated, and roughly 750,000 Palestinians displaced.
Most who were expelled from their homes couldn’t return to historic Palestine. And today, millions of their descendants live in refugee camps in Gaza, the West Bank and surrounding countries. The history of the Nakba has been deliberately concealed and often ignored in western narratives around the creation of Israel. In this episode of Missing Chapter, we break down how the Nakba happened - and how it defined the future of Palestine.

The Nakba isn’t a long-faded memory. It’s a deeply felt, visceral, and ongoing pain. And since the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks, Palestinians now fear a permanent displacement.
Vox senior reporter Sigal Samuel explains current calls from Israel’s politicians and defense establishment to expel Palestinians and provides context for this rapidly developing crisis. Read: bit.ly/49bOkSr

Thank you Vox for showing the raw facts, very simple history that the whole world is turning a blind eye to
👏🏻
Not a blind Eye, As a westerner I never knew about the Nakba and I've been alive for decades. Most from us from a Judeo-Christian background never knew. I think Palestinians would benefit from teaching the world what happened to them like this video. Our vocabularies should both include Nakba and Holocaust. I think by changing public opinion to the real truth, the Palestinians would get equitable treatment from the West.

you did an amazing video as well

It didn’t, it started at WWI. Ottomans lost. You lose you pay. The ottomans slaughtered all the Christians of the lands.

1) Arabs revolted against ottomans
2) Christians in Palestine are Arab and against Israel.
Youre right it started in the masacres in the early 1920s conducted as usual by the arabs who by the way were not called palestiniens. Just arabs. They came from egypt and syria looking for jobs from the british..

"The land without people, for people without land."
But they somehow on purpose forgot the land was already full of people (muslims and christians) living in it for generations..
Yeah….. Jewish folx lived there for generations too. Unfortunately due to forced diaspora , colonization, mass violence and displacement, many were forced to leave. History matters.
They learned that from the USA, who pushed the narrative the west was open fertile and FREE land, except it wasnt. Natives already lived there.
Jerusalem was a Jewish majority city in 1852. Most of the land was owned by the Ottomans during this period.
And yet there was plenty of room for Jews too, which is why so many Arabs sold land to Jews, who bought for exorbitant prices.
@@Snoopydadwe are talking about the population of the region of palestine as a whole which had only 6% Jews 15-20% Christians and the rest were Muslims.

Mad respect for Vox for having guts to make this video. Not only is it instructive, engaging and fact based like other productions from Vox, it's also very bravely telling the real story of Palestine that has been deliberately masked for decades. It's not antisemitic to tell people about history and it's not antisemitic to truthfully report on the news. This video is a great reminder of that.
or, most of this video is clearly one sided without looking at the israeli side but k
@@bonkdonk9125 But most of the history of Isreal is as written by them, so having a video that doesn't take into account the Israeli POV isn't bad. But any time someone is invading, there is going to be pushback. Also negative sentiments from the people being displaced. For the most part those peoples stories are being dismissed/hidden, and people who protest are terrorists or antisemitic.

@@tiffanysandmeier4753 Yes, you are correct and important, in a video that explains a conflict between two nations, to not take to a count one side's POV every once in while 👍 that won’t create problems down the line, I AM SURE!
I'll be with you if vox were to make the same video from an entirely Israeli view but we both know that's not going to happen.
Ya I gotta agree with @bonk donk and also with @tffiny
Like I think this story is one sided. I'm now in the IDF and believe 100% in what I do as a combat soldier. But I do think it's VERY important to hear and listen to the other side. Especially if your part of the story. Not enough people listen to things they don't agree with.
If we don't ever open up and hear the "enemy" we will never be able to get anywhere.
(Personally I really learned a lot about the Nakba from this video. I also feel a lot worse for a lot of Arabs now. Same goes with Gaza and Lebenon but I think the situation is bigger then just a short 17 minutes video.)
if you had released this AFTER october 7th, they’d have said you supported hamas, bc so many people choose not to think about or consider the fact that israel has been committing atrocities for a long time. decades.
lol a rocket scientist gamer has listen and swallowed what some socialist garbage has been poured down his throat and thinks he has any clue of what has actually gone on
Although that Hamas attack was awful, my pro-Palestine stance was really something you should keep to yourself. Now with all the destruction in Gaza, this stance is more accepted thankfully.
In my opinion, the current events are nothing else than Manifest Destiny when the American Natives lost everything and were decimated by Europeans who desired their own state where they had settled. Sure, the Natives were really brutal in those wars, but they never deserved to be reduced to a marginalised minority.
so you are saying that this person knows about hamas attack before hand ??
It is supporting HAMAS because HAMAS started all of this mess. So wym?

The terror organizations that surround Israel is Pakistan kept terrorizing villages in north India. Go on and study this conflict further. Look up "The Palestinian Refugee Problem Explained".

Wow, the fact that some Palestinian families have kept the keys to their long lost/destroyed homes really struck a chord for me. That was so powerful, I literally burst into tears. Such a tragic catastrophe. 😭
My friend’s grandmother died while she still had the key hoping to return one day…
There's an "Achmed's Palestine Keys" kiosk at every rally.
The Pakistani Muslim took Hindu homes. The keys are useless if you can’t return.
Not much different from the partition of India into Pakistan, India, and Bengal. Lots of people died, lots of refugees that left their homes and couldn't/wouldn't return. The Vox presentation here leaves out the "East Palestine" part where Arabs received TransJordan, which is now Jordan. In reality, the Jews received a small part of the overall area of the British Mandate.
1948 was 75 years ago. The 50% of the Gaza population that they claim are children, will never have met any relative who ever lived in today's Israel. They are living in the houses in which their parents and grandparents were born.
What has never changed with them, is their Muslim entitlement and their disregard for the Jewish subhumans.
Brits now complaining about muslim invasion of england. Well, you reap what you sow.
Its important to note that during the Nakba, Palestinian resistance was already weakened because of the revolt of 1936 where Palestinians revolted agaisnt the British colonizers and were squashed, essentially eliminating political and military strength of Palestine.
Interesting 🤔
But then the question raises; how come they defeated all those other arabs who showed up with bigger numbers after 1948, How did the Israeli got so much overpower with in such a small window of time ?
@@mahinahmed2316 I recommend you read Ilan Pappe's The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine for details but in a nutshell, the British trained them... Also they brought in their own militias.

We will never know what's true. Everyone has there biases
History is not the whole truth, but a slice of it purpose built to fit a narrative as set by the winners
If you went to Hebrew school, you were taught only the Jewish side of things. Speaking from experience on that. I never liked it and I never agreed with it. All I ever heard from my Rabbis and teachers was, "Arabs have all this other lands and we only have this little sliver that we are defending." To make matters worse then in the Synagogue you would hear people saying that they wanted all Arabs dead. The irony was most of us are/were Arab. The fact that Jewish people want to be semitic-Anti-Semites will confound me until I am dead. To me, it's always been clear what is happening is wrong, but I never saw the whole picture until recently and I am grateful for that. Unfortunately, the genocide is not over. This is an apartheid and the Israeli ambassadors have promised punishment of epic proportions.
you not a true hebrew
The reason many Jews in Israel are never told the truth is the Israeli government forbids teaching about the Nakba will not release the photos or reports by the military. Holocaust and Nakba should be taught together so that we don't visit injustice upon a whole people again.

@@justayoutuber1906 Over 20% of Israeli citizens are Arabs. Only 2% of people in the US are Native American. It's not equivalent at all. Israel is effectively an ethnostate, but so is Japan, Korea, China, the UAE, Saudi Arabia etc. People only have a problem with the Jewish ethnostate.
@@jmaddalena42 firstly, don't conflate Arab with Palestinian!! Palestine is a nationality and culture, being an Arab is an ethnic group. This is the equivalent of assuming germans and Italians are interchangeable because they are both European/ white.
Most "israelis" aren't indeginous to the region they are currently occupying, and never have been.
Israel is a settler colonialist state founded on ethnic supremacy and the displacement of the indigenous people of Palestine, similar to how the United States is a white supremacist, settler colonial state that ethnically cleansed it's indeginous inhabitants.

@@estebanpena6784 they send billions every year to support Israël in weapons etc
The issue isn't any administration it's because us in the west have never understood the issue. I'm 49 years old and only after years of believing that it was anti-semitism, did I learn about the Nakba. To these day the majority of people in my country Australia still think its anti-semitism. Those Palestinians that grew up in the west are explaining to us in English what has happened. For anyone reading this, you should be spreading the truth so that a just solution can be found.
It is up to the world to do whats right for the Palestinian people.....
And no one is calling those militias terrorists.
I don't understand how a group of people who had experienced the savagery and the brutality of oppression do the same to another group of people, while using the same narrative of historic oppression. This is just mind-boggling to me.
Perhaps Vox conveniently overlooks the the countless deaths of Jewish people for over two decades at the hands of the Arabs before the establishment of Israel.
The haunting memories of countless lives lost drive home the desperate need to ensure that another Holocaust never becomes a reality.
Faced with such a dire situation, the Jewish community recognized that they had to fight back with unwavering determination, employing any tactic within their reach to safeguard their existence.
It was a fight for survival, born out of the depths of pain and a solemn vow to never let history repeat itself.
The Jews have learned their lesson of how important national determination is for your own people's protection so much so that they were willing to go to great lengths to secure their newly formed nation.
It's like drafting your own population when your country is under attack. There is nothing moral about the draft, but sometimes it's what necessary to secure your nation's sovereignty and independence. If the Israeli believed that displacing Palestinians was what was necessary to secure their nations existence, then that decision was inevitable, no matter the immorality of doing so.
It's honestly incredible that Israel even exists today looking back to when it was invaded by nearly all its neighbors on the same day it became independent, especially *with* the horrible and defenseless borders it got from the UN.
That’s because they are not the same people as the holocaust survivors. These people are the minority of the area with little connection to the European Ashkenazy Jews that died during the holocaust.
@@8is That still didn't justify its action. Israel is an apartheid state no matter how you wanna cut it
Because this video paints a very one sided picture when violence was done by both sides. Muslims despised Jews and Jews despised Muslims.

Empathy and mutual understanding is the best way to build a beautiful country together (not missiles and guns) but how it could be so hard and impossible.
Funny thing is being pro-Palestine is being pro Semite since Palestinians are Semites too ...

well the Arabs in Israel were given a plan to split the land by the British and instead they (and all surrounding countries) started a war, and lost. it is the Palestinians who used guns Israel protects itself and has attempted to create peace many times.
@@kafu2 BTW, the plan was very uneven, 70 per cent of the population was arab, and only 30 were Israeli. Yet Israel got most of the land. It's not a fair plan. They stole the land from the Palestinians, just watch the video. :/

I think another thing worth mentioning about the UN Partition Plan was that all the states surrounding Palestine all vigorously opposed the plan. Among the UN members at the time that voted against the Partition Plan were all the Middle Eastern countries, India, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Greece, and Cuba. In other words, the countries that voted against the plan tended to be geographically closer to Palestine, while the states that voted for the plan tended to be further away.
becuz they knew that this was not sustainable. They could have just created 2 seperate states or create a unified state with alloted land for all. Human greed and british is the cause for everything i guess
The Partition also gave more than half of Palestine to a 1 third of the population who majority were recent immigrants from Europe. I mean, even a blind man can see the injustice.
So, did ALL muslim countries vote to keep jews from their homeland, or just nearly all? And after all the religious cleansing they had done to Coptic christians for 1200 years, I for one am shocked at how they were treated the same way.
@siri alexa That's the East Bank. That was never in question. How imperialistic could you be?
They were vigorously opposed to the partition plan that gave Palestinian Arabs a huge majority of the land
We should build memorial sites to denounce the Nakba just like memorial sites for the Holocaust or the Armenian Genocide or any site that commemorates a genocide that took place on earth.
Nothing but truth....bitter truth
For videos like these I often need to pause every once in a while as it majorly conflicts the narrative I’ve been taught. I wish there was more news outlets that did this, especially leave us sources so we can continue to search for more and more information. Thank you Vox!
This is the truth we lived
Thank you I5 for doing the work of listening . I feel encouraged to follow your example.
I remember reading a watered down version of how Israel was formed in a library in high school. I was shocked that even that more mild version took place. It seems like the scars of the Holocaust ran so deep that efforts to support the people impacted led to a cascade of tragedy for Palestinians that continues to expand 75 years later.

Yep, it's an example of how far the truth can be distorted.
13:06 The Arab Nations around Israel didn't attack because Palestinian refugees were coming into their countries.
No, the authorities in Egypt and Syria had made it very clear that they would exterminate the Jews as soon as the British Mandate ended on May 15th, 1948.
The King of Egypt himself said that the Jews would be defeated.
Syrian president Shukri al-Quwatli said "We shall eradicate Zionism" and ordered his troops into Israel immediately on May 15th, 1948.
Israel knew it was going to be invaded.
The Jews were the minority population in Palestine at that point. The Jews had militias that would disable every Palestinian military base that attacked them, but new Palestinians would reoccupy it every time they left. In order to have tactically decent ground to defend themselves on against Syria, they had to expel Palestinians from it first.
Otherwise, they would simply be allowing themselves to be wiped out and the Western world would cry "Oh no!"
In my world history class in high school about we briefly went over the creation is Israel but only from the Israeli prospective. We didn't really learn about the Balford Declaration or the reason why Israeli's neighbors began conflict with them. The narrative, "oh they didn't like them because they weren't Arab or Muslim." It wasn't until college where I got the bigger picture, starting with the birth of Zionism in Russia, the Ottoman Empire, England, etc. etc.
I mean... the Israeli narrative isn't entirely wrong. A major sticking point in the idea that the British were to blame and it wasn't all "Arabs hate Jews" are the facts that A) the Jews in Palestine revolted in 1944 to kick the British out because they refused to leave and they broke their promise in the Balfour Declaration to help form a Jewish state and B) over 900,000 Jews were persecuted, murdered, and forced to flee from over a dozen Muslim-majority nations across north Africa and southwest Asia because the Jews' Muslim neighbors turned on them. If their neighbors didn't hate them, why were they attacking them in places literally thousands of miles away from Palestine?

Dawud here reminds me of my own grandfather, who was an infant when his parents fled Yaffa in 1948.
They took the keys to their home, hoping to return after a few weeks. They left their homes, their families, their whole lives behind; it has been 75 years.
There's this song, released in 1969 (twenty years after the Nakba), written by Nizar Kabbani and sung by Umm Kulthum.
It sings:
"Twenty years of me searching for my land and identity
Searching for my home that is there
for my home that is surrounded by barbed wire
for my childhood
for my neighbors
for my books
for my pictures
for every warm corner
and for every flower vase"
It almost never fails to bring me to tears.

Prior to the formation of Israel in 1948, the territory was the “Palestinian Mandate”, a protectorate of Great Britain.
Prior to 1918, the territory was entirely within the Ottoman Empire and was essentially an Arab province of a Turkish Empire. Arabs had the same religious beliefs as Turks (Islam) but completely different languages and customs.
In 1918, The Ottoman Empire collapsed. Turkey was created as a secular state out of the Turkish portion of the empire. The Middle East possessions of the Ottoman Empire were carved by the English and the French into spheres of influence. Some were immediately made monarchies (e.g. Saudi Arabia) and others took longer to develop into countries.

(This lens continued into contemporary history as well.)

@@asheraharonov how would you feel if your land that your ancestors have lived in for thousands of years got taken away from you and is given to settlers and your forced to live in very bad conditions while someone is comfortable in a home that you built?! Us Arabs are tied to our lands and we see then as our birth right because unlike the western part of the world it’s actually where our roots are. Arabs are not 25% Irish 60% Italian etc .. we are 100% arabs and owned that land for many centuries.
@@asheraharonov I wonder why Arabs attacked Isreal. Maybe it has a reason like those Jewish paramilitary groups who DESTROYED villages and KILLED villagers.
Why was Britain even able to give land to a group of people where the land originally did not belong to them?
That is the core problem.
Define original. The Arabs took it from the Byzantines, who inherited it from the Romans, who took it from the Jews.

@@moledude Change of leadership doesn't mean the people changed, Palestinians match Canaanite remains, they are undoubtedly the people of the land, not that we need to go that far back to prove people that existed in 1948 deserve to freaking stay!!! India has many names under differebt kingdoms but the ppl are the same, British Raj doesn't mean Bristish people were a majority in the country.
Imperialism is the reason... Horrible and awful and it wasm't the only case of modern settler colonialism, there was also Algeria, Zimbabwe, South Africa and more...
