This video is the story of the origin of the conflict between Israel and Palestine that we see to this day. We cannot understand the war between Israel and Palestine, nor how Hamas came to be, without understanding the origin of Israel itself.
We will discuss the origins of Zionism, antisemitism, the balfour declaration, the Jaffa Riots, the Palestinian Revolt, the Jewish Insurgency, the Bombing of the King David hotel, and MUCH, MUCH MORE!
Part 2 will come shortly!

This video was heavily inspired by Oversimplified and Bill Wurtz (Especially his history of the entire world, I guess)

I bet this video won’t have controversial comment section

[LantanaAbdullahi-gngt]

If you see two fishes fighting in a pond, just know that a British has passed by.

Fact: the term "Crime against humanity" was first used by American writer Mark Twain to describe the treatment of the Congolese people by the Belgians. Glad he mentions it on map.

“Oh wow I bet this video with have a civil comment sec-“
SHUT UP

[sir_durkio]

So the moral of the story is that the British and other European nations were responsible for most of these conflicts

[Goofball-]

Finally someone who simplifies this conflict and gives it detail

[Amelia_-qynz]

Idk what would be crazier. This video's comment section or a video about Israel-Palestine having a sponsor

[lord.liberty]

You're a braver person than I am by making this video

[superwin]

Ok 2 minutes in and I already can tell you got an F in history lol

[markross]

I've been there as a Christian tourist, met the Palestinians and those people have the most legitimate grievances one can ever hear. The Gaza war taking place there now is breaking my heart and I hope both the Jewish and Arab people who were so good the me there are alright.
