What is this project?: Do you want to know what Israelis and Palestinians really think about the conflict? Ask a question and I will get answers. All answers are from random people and all answers are included and unedited. The questions come from you, the viewers.

That second soldier touched my heart. "It's a shame that I have to stand at this checkpoint". More people need to see this.

[thardja]

"It's not soldier who starts a war. It is politicians."

The entire world is researching Israel and Palestine nowadays. Your channel is great because it shows the real opinion on the street. You show real people and what they think for the most part, before they have time to overthink their answer. Seems genuine. I love how almost all say they have no hate even after a soldier was stabbed and killed recently.

Just want to remind people that most Israeli soldiers are teen/young conscripts and their age range is 18 - 22 (some are even 17.5 years old), and i believe that their parents' education still matters a lot in that age range, especially since almost all of them still live with their parents in that age group. It seems that most of them were educated not to hate Palestinians contrary to what I actually expected.

It’s insane that most of the interaction Israelis have with Palestinians is during their military service. If they had more civil interaction maybe things would be better.

[markluka]

So the actual soldiers who fights them dont hate them.
They are more moral than college students in the US

A more open-ended question would have been better.
"What do you think of Palestinians?"

[zachacham]

This is the main difference between Israel and Palestine

[Gibonz]

Question idea:
Q: If you (an Israeli) were born as a Palestinian, how would you feel about the occupation?
And same question to Palestinians but reversed

[itsdatez]

keep in mind that most of the military in Israel is made up of 18-21-year-olds who are forced to enlist, most of them don't want to harm others but see their duty as protecting their own, their country, and they do what is ordered of them as soldiers do.

as a christian israeli soldier i can confirm

[ifta]

It is not an occupation if we too have a history of the place, a history of thousands of years, a history of royalty, and a temple that was long before Al-Aqsa, and the Palace of David and its dynasty after it, and we are the Jewish people, our DNA belongs to the Middle East in Israel

[tamalhasan]

Second Army guy at West Bank check point is a good man. He blurts out his positive mind.

[rrsharizam]

Most of our problems can be solved.
But we rely on politicians to solve our problems.

[Bliinks]

Ask, "How do you define terrorism" to both israelis and palestinians.

[kasdcomoa]

Why does every Palestinian call Israel terrorists but they support Hamas? Seems hypocritical.

[gman]

Hate and violence are never the answer. Peace from Israel 🇮🇱 🇵🇸. For any Palestinians that might read this - both of us were born into this conflict without much choice. And the truth is that both of us, Israelis and Palestinians, are going nowhere. So what's the point of the endless fighting? I wish for a better future for us all.

stop war, stop violence. Love and Peace from 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩

Palestinians and jews not hating each other or even being best friends:
Media: *we dont do that here*

One of the best and most important videos Corey has ever made. The amount of views speaks for itself.
