They are the results of the British Empire which existed in both world wars but was dismantled after WWII. It’s not a reflection on modern Britain.

Actually it goes back to the Crusader Era, when the Viking Norman kiings expelled the Jewish communities of England (first to do so), and exterminated ALL the Muslims and Jews in the "Holy Land". And on and on, sucking & deceiving both peoples for a millenia, with other crafty racists like the U.S. Democratic Party. Their racist policies toward indogenes continued worldwide: confuse, divide, suck dry.

So, in the post ottoman world initially, the Arabs were the ones against partition. Then the Israelis dominated militarily, and many years later Yasir Arafat finally agreed.

@@danhardwick5462seems like a fair assessment..I don’t see Israel making any concessions in that regard any time soon as long as they have the monopoly on violence tipped in their favor. The unconditional support thru money, weapons etc from the US would have to cease for starters to even begin to have them start thinking that way..and even then all the capabilities they’ve developed over years of support will allow them to sustain the status quo against a comparatively unarmed/helpless people for quite some time I’d imagine…the 2 sides would have to be on somewhat equal footing in terms of strength and outside support and we all know how highly unlikely that is..I’d say if at least international support gained traction for the Palestinians to a point (to at least balance the other narrative) it may move things along even without the military aspect but thats a long shot..on a positive note though I have witnessed an immense groundswell of pro Palestinian social media activity I have never seen before and main stream media has been forced to pay the tiniest sliver of lip service here n there ..practically useless at this point but it’s a start q

And when they realized they'd created a huge horrific mess, they ran away in 1947 and abandoned everything. Sickening. It's too bad they ever meddled at all.

It begs the question did the nations (and their leaders) deliberately plan these borders in a style that would ferment timeless squabbles among the locals in order to maintain control over these lands and the mineral wealth that they then bled out of them?

I suspect they weren't looking that far ahead. The reports I've looked at agree that in about 1919 some religious-minded Brits thought it'd be a neat idea to put zionist jews in the "holy" land. This was worked out between 1919 and 1947 with minor fights. The brits promised the zionists land that they had no business promising and hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were forcibly removed from their lands. In 1948, when all hell broke loose the brits left and told the league of nations to sort it out. And here we are in 2024 with NOTHING sorted. This, in a nutshell, is what my studies have revealed.@@peterfreeman1585

Are you sure they want peace? Maybe when they exterminated the Jews. Not before. Yes it is a sad story.

The history is far more complicated. One might assume the Arabs (as they were termed as Palestine was not a nation nor a people, but an area) occupied less than 5% of the land and the Jews occupied a similar area. The land was largely unoccupied, as they are no natural resources there. Hamas would have people believe "Palestinians" occupied the entire area and Jews displaced them. In fact, Jews raised money and bought many Palestinian plots, though the price paid is indeed good for debate.

@@A190xx I just checked the statistics; You can google it too: Based on a '1922 census of Palestine' conducted by the British, the total population of Palestine was 78% Muslims, 11% Jews, 9% Christians and 9,474 others. Since1920, British forces actively started to help the Zionist movement for mass immigration of jewish people to the region (along with lots of other immoral unfair ugly things and oppressions they did against the native Palestinian people) till we reach the even uglier year of 1948. It's actually not that complicated (despite Zionists trying to tell you so), not for people who do their research to know the truth and has a moral compass. It seems it has been a strategic plan by Zionists to take the whole region eventually and expel native people. And they killed lots of people and manipulated and corrupted many things since then in my view. It was very immoral and is still very immoral.

Ireland has the privilege that their own looting and pillaging is lost in the mists of dark age time. Imagine if their ancestors were good at record-keeping.

Good comment.

Not a "problem" - the film tells it as it was. There was no Jordan (created 1946, a large chunk of Palestine), or Syria (created 1945). Iraq and Saudi Arabia were created in 1932. And as far as the subject of this film goes, all the above were united as Arabs in their opposition to any partition proposal allowing Israel to exist even as a tiny sliver of land where the most of the Jewish population was (and had been for millenia).

Our respective fathers were in the same place at the same time it appears.

After seeing this, is it any wonder that the Arabs think that Israel belongs to them? I knew about Great Britain's participation and the Balfor document but the history of the land must go back to the beginning of time when Abraham received possession of the land from God.

@randidean7424 And how pray tell can ANYONE prove that God ( seriously …..here is the problem to start with ) gave possession of the land to Abraham. So do we know for a fact that there were no people living before God “gave possession “ And then you have to forget everything that has happened in between and somehow believe that this land belongs to the Kingdom of Isreal . It’s a lot of mental gymnastics required to accept that . So what it boils down to at the end of the day is ideology …. And who currently has the greatest means to protect the narrative.

@@randidean7424 There was a large majority of 90% Arab population and the Jews 10% who lived for centuries in Palestine then why would Arabs think invading, immigrent Jews from Eastern Europe (fleeing persecution in Europe) would be entitled to their homes and land.

There were no Palestinians in Israel 200 years ago; Arabs began to appear in Israel after Zionist Jews began to settle there. Nikolai Vasilyevich Gogol - 1848. From a letter to Zhukovsky (02/28/1850), in which Gogol describes his impressions of his pilgrimage to Palestine: Noting that in ancient times it was “possibly” a flourishing country, Gogol writes: “but now, when it is rare, rare to see five or six olive trees along the entire slope of the mountain, the color of their land is as grayish and dusty as the most the rocks of the mountains, when only a thin layer of moss and patchy patches of grass turn green in the middle of this naked, uneven field of stones, and after some five or six hours of travel you come across an Arab’s hut somewhere stuck to the mountain, more like a clay pot, a stove , an animal burrow than a human dwelling - how can you recognize the land of milk and honey in such a place? Imagine, in the midst of such desolation, Jerusalem, Bethlehem and all the eastern cities, looking like randomly stacked piles of stones and bricks; imagine the Jordan, skinny in the middle of the naked mountainous surroundings, here and there overshadowed by small willow bushes; imagine in the midst of such desolation at the feet of Jerusalem the valley of Jehoshaphat with several stones and grottoes, as if the tombs of the kings of Judah.” “Really, I don’t know what I can tell you about Palestine that would lead you to beneficial thoughts and encourage you to take up your pen and your poem with inspiration.” Mark Twain - 1867. "Simps Abroad" Palestine can rightfully be considered a queen among lands whose very appearance causes despondency. Its mountains are barren and ugly, their colors are dull. The valleys are unsightly deserts with stunted vegetation, which emanates melancholy and squalor. The Dead Sea and the Sea of Galilee sleepily numb among the deserted mountains and plains, where there is nothing to rest the eye on - there is nothing bright or striking here, there are no gentle landscapes dormant in a purple haze or dotted with the shadows of clouds floating in the sky. All cutting outlines, all lines are clear; there is no perspective here - in the distance everything is just as devoid of charm as up close. A joyless, gloomy and mournful land. However, some of its shreds and shreds must be beautiful in the bloom of spring - all the more beautiful since they are surrounded on all sides by a bare desert, which has no end or edge. I would very much like to see the banks of the Jordan in the spring, and Shechem too, and Ezdrilon, and Aijalon, and the shores of the Sea of Galilee - but even in the spring they would all seem like just toy gardens, planted far from each other in the endless desert. Palestine is a deserted and unsightly land... Palestine no longer belongs to our everyday life; prosaic world. It is given over to poetry and legends - it is a land of dreams

*Hats down to this Arab who say there is no occupation of Palestine* m.ukposts.info/have/v-deo/ont7haSfbY2Wu58.html

Jews were coming BACK to Israel in the 19th C long before the British had control; some Jew communities have been in Israel without a break since AD 77 - Roman settlement - and before. Jews would have returned to Israel no matter if the British had control or not - the Holocaust was the final straw of 2000 yrs of persecution, particularly in Europe

Easiest way to protect those lives would be to stop trying to take more land from them.

Can I suggest you also find other additional sources. I find this video lacking. Also, bear in mind that the Brits were not in Palestine as "colonisers". They were given the role of protectorate by the League of Nations at the end of WW1. The aim was to help the now defeated land, once belonging to the Ottoman Empire, to become self governing. The protectorate was meant to be temporary. There's nothing straightforward in the making of Palestine. WW2 followed hot on the heels of WW1. We all know of the diaspora of Jews and anti-Semitism in Russia and Europe. So much was thrown into the mix and the mix was more complicated than the video suggests. Happy history trawling and good luck in trying to get to "the truth".

Empire is always and everywhere an exercise in control. Formerly this was mainly by force but progressively as communications have improved, propaganda has played more and more of a role. As the internet has democratised propaganda, force is making a comeback. The great mass of the British people, no less than the rest of the empire, were thought controlled and still are. Very few, if any, understood the Machiavellian statesmanship of the time. Just as few really understand it today but the power behind the throne is still making decisions which kill hundreds of thousands, not to mention their self-serving liberal doctrines which are driving ancient peoples to go extinct.

I wonder what would have happened If Britain hadn’t been given the mandate to step in and keep the peace after the fall of the Ottoman Empire? I bet there would have been even greater bloodshed. Britain had an impossible task. What would folk who criticise Britain have suggested instead?

Indeed it is.

Never the Palistines land! That's why the jews can do as they they see fit!

anywhere the Arab Muslims were outside of Arabia, they were there by war, violence and conquest, even invading Europe, conquering Spain, and had it not been for some crucial great victories by some courageous Europeans, all of Europe would have been lost.

Well, actually killing of Jews in Palestine happened before Israel was even created. This video spent 5 seconds on 1929 pogrom. It happened in Hebron. The same thing as on Oct. 7: torture, rape, beheadings. One of the examples there was a Jewish pharmacist, a cripple, who treated Arabs for decades. The Arabs took his eyes out, raped and killed his daughters and beheaded his grandchildren. Did I mention that Israel did not exist then?

It wasn't their land! Most migrated there looking for work under the British, hence the predominance of Egyptian and Syrian surnames.

It also included Sinai

Those who don’t learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. Please study the past to be wise and better for the future.

sound like an ai bot

They should be, when someone else commits a crime according to them you are never off the hook but they expect others to forgive and forget, definitely a double standard

Not anymore as the daily news pours in the truth is coming out very very unacceptable truth

Did you go to Palestine as a tourist too? Why not? Is it just dessert?

israel offered a peaceful settlement countless times................................

the big issue here is that the palestinians seem very insistant to elect and let them be represented by groups who want nothing else than the complete destruction of israel

the isrealis broke every agreement they signed all because the Limey terrorists were in hock to Rothschild......

Jew hatred comes from islam.
