I'm an Israeli patriot who cares deeply about my country. I acknowledge that there is no symmetry in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, as it is an unjust Israeli occupation that needs to end. The current regime in Israel is one of the most brutal and cruel in the world, and it can only be described as apartheid. In the occupied territories, one people have all the rights while the other does not. Anyone who has been there or is fair-minded can see this reality. Visit the Jordan Valley to witness it firsthand.

As an American with Israeli citizenship, I was raised to believe that Israel was always defending itself and that Palestinians were the aggressors. However, my perspective has changed. The ongoing issues in Palestine, including open-air prisons, checkpoints, blockades, and violations of human rights, have opened my eyes. Palestinians face challenges such as limited access to water, electricity, and the COVID vaccine. Children are separated from their families, and homes are taken by Zionists. It is crucial for everyone to support a free Palestine. This injustice must come to an end immediately.

As a Jewish person, I want to make it clear that I am against the existence of the Zionist State of Israel. The oppression and cruelty inflicted upon the Palestinian people is not in the name of our religion or the star of David. Judaism, as stated in the Torah, forbids Jews from having our own sovereignty since the destruction of the temples. True followers of Judaism do not aspire to have our own state or take land from the Palestinians. This goes against the principles of my religion.

I am an American Jew who recently lived in Israel for four months. When you visit the territories around the West Bank and Gaza, you see the wall, surveillance cameras pointed at Palestinians' homes, and autonomous weapons at checkpoints. It's hard to understand the reality of occupation unless you witness it firsthand. Growing up as a Palestinian child, you know that the country you live in hates you and is willing to kill you based on video footage. Israel's advanced technology allows them to target Hamas members without bombing the entire region. This level of intelligence suggests that Israel's actions are a massacre and genocide, driven by white supremacy, dictatorship, and control over a people who are innocent of the crimes committed against them.

As a Holocaust survivor, I initially believed in the Zionist dream of a Jewish state. However, I soon realized that achieving this dream meant oppressing and expelling the local Palestinian population. The Nakba, or catastrophe, was the foundation of Israel, yet it is not allowed to be mentioned. During my visit to the occupied territories, I witnessed the brutality of the occupation, including the destruction of olive groves and denial of water rights. Palestinians are trapped in what is often referred to as the world's largest outdoor prison. Criticizing Israel does not make one an anti-Semite; it is about standing up for Palestinian rights and justice. The Western press often portrays Palestinians as terrorists while giving Israel less criticism. Israeli historians, professors, and soldiers have spoken out against Israeli policies. It is important for people, regardless of their background, to speak up against injustice and not be silenced by accusations of anti-Semitism.

Lie number one, Israel is the only Jewish state in the world. False. Israel is the second. The Jewish Autonomous Oblast is the first. Founded in 1934, it predates Israel and is located in Russia's Far Eastern Federal District. At 14,000 square miles, it's 75% bigger than Israel and bordered by China, North Korea, and Russia. Relocating there would prevent the endless problems that the world currently faces because of Israeli expansionism. Honestly, it would be better for everyone if they did. Lie number two, Jews had nowhere to flee during Nazi Germany. False. The Havara agreement reached in 1933 between Nazi Germany and Zionist organizations, primarily the Jewish Agency for Palestine, allowed German Jews to migrate to Palestine by transferring their assets to Germany, then reclaiming them in form of German exported goods. This allowed Jews to keep some of their wealth and the Zionist movement to increase Jewish immigration to Palestine, which is what they wanted. Over 60,000 German Jews immigrated to Palestine under this agreement between 1933 and 1939. Lie number three, Palestinians never wanted Jews in Palestine. False. As tens of thousands of Jews migrated to Palestine during the Havarah agreement and World War two, Palestinians welcomed them even into their own homes. The Jews were housed, clothed, fed, and given refuge. Then one day, those same Jewish families that they'd cared for locked the Palestinian families out of their homes and backed by the military, threatened their lives if they returned. I'm not making this stuff up you guys. It's everywhere. You just have to be willing to see it.

Israel has been a state since 1948, but it has a history dating back 3000 years. Even Jesus referred to the land as Israel. The name Palestine came about when the Roman Emperor Hadrian expelled Jews and renamed the area. The Jewish people are not foreign colonialists in Israel. The speaker, a proud Muslim, believes in the prophets who were Israelites. They emphasize the importance of peaceful coexistence between Israelis and Palestinians. The video aims to correct Mia Khalifa's misinformation and spread the truth.

I am here today to support the oppressed people and stand against the occupation. Israel, in my view, is a colonial apartheid genocidal state that does not represent Judaism. I was exploited when I was younger, living in Israel and learning the language. As I delved deeper, I realized the horror of this state exploiting our trauma from the Holocaust to oppress another people. They deserve the same rights as everyone else. I became aware of this in 2014 when I witnessed Israel's massacre in Gaza. Since then, I have separated my Jewish identity from this occupying fascist brutality. Today, I march with the Palestinians and support justice for all oppressed peoples. Thank you for speaking with me.

I am mayor Baruchin, a history and civics teacher in Tel Aviv. I was fired, arrested, and jailed for four days in solitary confinement in a high security prison. For what? For posting about civilians killed in Gaza. Growing up, I was taught the Zionist claim of a land without people for people without land. I learned of Arabs either as evil and dangerous or as ridiculous and stupid. I didn’t know any Arabs, and I never learned about the Nakba. After these charges were dropped and I returned to teach at my school, some students refused to attend my class. Others cursed me or spat at me or on the ground in front of me. Today, most of my students are respectful and are even willing to listen to what I have to say about what we are doing in Gaza, something they refused to do previously. Education provides an opportunity for Israelis to recognize Palestinian suffering and their history. Through education, we can write a new story of Palestinian and Jews who can live in this place in equality and dignity. But first, Israel must start this genocide.

Israel has a right to exist and defend itself, but Palestinians are often ignored. Palestinians are treated as third-class citizens and face apartheid-like conditions. The Israeli government evicts Palestinians from their land, which is then used for Israeli settlements. Palestinians have limited control over their lives, with restrictions on building permits, water supply, solar energy, medical treatment, electricity, fishing, and transportation. The US government supports Israel and considers Hamas, the governing party in Gaza, a terrorist organization. Palestinians have chosen Hamas due to their frustration with Israeli oppression. Israel and the US need to adopt new approaches towards Palestinians. The Palestinian people face apartheid, deprivation, and civil rights violations. This information is readily available, but one must actively seek it out.

As a black Jewish woman living in Israel, I support my country and its right to exist. Despite claims that black people are mistreated in Israel, I have never personally experienced hatred or discrimination. It's absurd to use my skin color as an excuse to criticize my stance. I stand with my family, friends, and the values of Israel.

I am not pulling my perspective on Israel Palestine out of thin air. I have studied and researched this extensively. As a Jewish woman raised by a Zionist family, I have overcome my pro-Israel bias to see the viciousness and violence of the Zionist state. My interest in the conflict grew when friends returned from birthright trips and spoke negatively about Palestinians. I took multiple courses in college to gain a well-rounded understanding of Israeli-Palestinian politics, which solidified my pro-Palestine stance. The history of colonization and exploitation by Britain and the US led to the establishment of Israel on Palestinian land. The current leadership, like Benjamin Netanyahu, prioritizes wealth and military power over the well-being of Palestinians. Israel's actions constitute a genocide, slowly eroding the will of the Palestinian people while benefiting the primary stakeholders.

Israel is often criticized by progressives and academics, but it embodies many liberal values such as individual liberty, scientific inquiry, rule of law, religious freedom, women's rights, human rights, democracy, trial by jury, and freedom of speech. The irony is that marginalized people benefit from Western ideals, not in spite of them. The woke movement fails to recognize this and supports Hamas, despite its lack of laws against sexual harassment, domestic violence, and child marriage. Israel was not colonized by Jews, but established through a United Nations vote. Western civilization, despite its flaws, has contributed to the progress of free societies and the recognition of individual rights. Other cultures have also committed atrocities, but the West is unfairly singled out.

Israel is often criticized by progressives and academics, but it embodies many liberal values such as individual liberty, scientific inquiry, rule of law, religious freedom, women's rights, human rights, democracy, trial by jury, and freedom of speech. The Western ideals that Israel embraces have improved the lives of marginalized people. The woke movement fails to recognize this and instead portrays Israel as a toxic product of the West. However, Western civilization has contributed immensely to the world, with figures like Martin Luther King Jr. drawing inspiration from Western thinkers. The Jews did not colonize Israel, and its establishment was decided by a United Nations vote. Western civilization should not be dismissed as a negative term; it has brought progress and positive change.

Israel's 1.5 million Arabs have full voting and election rights, work in various professions, and serve on the Supreme Court. The speaker questions the Arab states about the number of Jews living in their countries, highlighting the significant Jewish populations that once existed in Algeria, Egypt, Syria, and Iraq. They challenge the notion of apartheid by pointing out the absence of Jews in these countries and question why Israel is excluded from the UN Commission on the Middle East. The speaker questions the singling out of Israel and asks where the real apartheid lies.

Israel is not a democratic or Jewish state. It is Jewish by ethnicity and supremacy, not religion. Israel was built on top of Palestine and the indigenous Palestinian people. The existence of Israelis is dependent on others. To become legitimate, Israel must acknowledge the rights of the oppressed indigenous people. The state was founded on ethnic cleansing and segregation, with explicitly racist laws. Over 50 laws and practices are implicitly racist, falling under the legal definition of apartheid. This is a serious crime under international law, akin to genocide. The Shin Bet, Israel's security service, monitors those opposing the Jewish character of the state.

I'm an Israeli patriot who cares about Israel, but I believe there is no symmetry or conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. Instead, there is a brutal Israeli occupation that must end. The regime in our backyard is one of the most cruel and brutal tyrannies on Earth, resembling apartheid. In the occupied territories, one group has all the rights while the other has none. Visit the Jordan Valley to witness the stark contrast between prosperous Israeli settlements and the Palestinians living without basic necessities or rights. It's clear that this is apartheid, and no one can deny it.

As a Jewish person, I want to make it clear that I am against the existence of the Zionist state of Israel. The oppression and cruelty inflicted upon the Palestinian people is not in the name of our religion or the Star of David. Judaism and the Torah forbid Jews from having our own sovereignty since the destruction of the temples. We are also forbidden from killing or stealing. Taking land away from the Palestinians goes against my religion and is completely contradictory.

This debate concerns racism and a double standard regarding Jews. Anti-Zionism equates to being against Jews. Smeti Hassan is accused of lying about Zionism to cover his antisemitism. Anti-Zionists rely on modern blood libels. Israel's existence is a decolonization success story after Arab imperialism, Islamic conquest, and British colonialism. In 1948, 700,000 Arabs escaped fighting during an attack by Arab armies, while those who remained became Israeli citizens; the Arab population has since increased tenfold. Ethnic cleansing occurred against Jews expelled from Arab countries. Arabs in Israel, 20% of the population, are free and represented in Israeli society. Claims of apartheid conflate Arab citizens of Israel with Arabs under the Palestinian Authority. Accusations of genocide against Jews invert reality. October 7th was the latest in a history of genocidal acts by Arabs against Jews. Hamas embeds terror infrastructure in civilian areas, using civilians as human shields. The IDF takes measures to prevent civilian casualties. The aim of Hamas is to survive by pressuring Jews to cease self-defense. Voting for the opposition supports Hamas' anti-Zionist aim.

I am not pulling my perspective on Israel Palestine out of thin air. I have studied and researched this extensively. As a Jewish woman raised by a Zionist family, I have overcome my pro-Israel bias to see the viciousness and violence of the Zionist state. My college experience and coursework on Israeli-Palestinian politics further solidified my pro-Palestine stance. This conflict is not as complicated as people make it out to be. It stems from Britain and the US wanting to exploit Palestine for military labor and land colonization. The establishment of Israel was never intended as a gift for Jews, but rather a trap to exploit the land and its people. Israel's actions over the years amount to a genocide, slowly exhausting and harming the Palestinian population while benefiting the primary stakeholders.

The speaker, an Arab citizen of Israel, challenges the claims of apartheid and ethnic genocide in Israel. They point out that 25% of the Israeli population is Arab, with over 20% being Muslims. They emphasize that Arab citizens have equal rights, including welfare, education, and healthcare. The speaker shares their personal story of being born into a Bedouin family, where women were not allowed to go to school. However, after Israel's founding, education became mandatory for all children, including girls. The speaker highlights their own achievements, holding an electrical engineering degree and a master's from Stanford University. They argue that Israel has provided them with opportunities and that claims of apartheid and genocide do not align with the reality. The speaker urges people to seek out the facts before making such claims.

As a Holocaust survivor, I initially believed in the Zionist dream of a Jewish state. However, I soon realized that achieving this dream involved oppressing and expelling the local Palestinian population. The Nakba, or catastrophe, was the foundation of Israel but is not acknowledged in the country.

The Western press often portrays Palestinians as terrorists while giving Israel less criticism. Israeli historians, professors, and soldiers have spoken out against Israeli policies, providing ample information for those willing to seek the truth. It is crucial for people of goodwill, regardless of their religious background, to challenge the silencing tactics and support justice, liberty, freedom, and truth.

I am not pulling my perspective on Israel Palestine out of thin air. I have studied and researched this extensively. As a Jewish woman raised by a Zionist family, I have overcome my pro-Israel bias to see the viciousness and violence of the Zionist state. In college, I took multiple courses on Israeli-Palestinian politics and the Middle East conflict, which solidified my pro-Palestine stance. The history of Palestine's colonization by Britain and the US, and the displacement of Palestinians for Jewish settlement, is clear. Israel's actions over the past 75 years can be described as a genocide, with the intention of exhausting and displacing the Palestinian population for the benefit of the primary stakeholders.

Growing up in the US, I was taught to have unwavering loyalty to Israel and view Arabs as enemies. However, as I grew older and gained access to global information, I began questioning these beliefs. I realized that Western media and the church had misled us. I no longer believe in the good vs. evil narrative. Israel controls the media and the way the war is fought. The conflict started with the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians 75 years ago, not a recent terrorist attack. The US and other imperialist nations suppress any alternative systems and then blame those nations for their failure. We claim moral superiority while having millions in prison, homeless, and without healthcare. It's time to deconstruct and challenge the indoctrination we've received. We cannot claim that all lives matter while supporting the bombing of innocent civilians. I stand with the oppressed.

I grew up in Jerusalem in a Zionist family with a strong political background. Based on my personal experience and family history, I firmly believe that Israel is an apartheid state. It was never intended to be a democracy, as establishing a Jewish state in an Arab country inherently excludes the possibility of true democracy.
