Leading Palestinian Peace Activist & Theater Director, Juliano Mer-Khamis, Killed in Jenin

[re2dance]

One person works to lessen the divide and all it does is breed more hate. Why not freedom to think and explore? What is so wrong with trying to better your country and people, with trying to bring peace? I just don't understand. What does it take to wake people up in the Palestinian state because at this point both sides are losing and big.

[irishxxkelt]

The Palestinians are excellent at killing those who try to bridge the gap. Thanks to Islam Arab Muslims are under a spirit of hatred.

[TheRighteoussone]

HAHAHAHAHAH you fucking jews got another thing coming people of other races KNOW about your kind you are murderers the best at what u do IVE SPOKEN TO REAL JEWS both radical and open minded and those who claim to be a jew Their forefathers thought their children that they are superior to everyone else that a non jew is subhuman this is not the first man they`ve assisinated nore is it the last but only if u knew ..

[irishxxkelt]

@TheRighteoussone You obviously have spoken to other anti-Semites. It was not a Jewish characterstic to teach their children that they are superior to anyone else . I lived for 7 1/2 months in a kibbutz in Israel and I never was told I was inferior because I was not Jewish. You are merely parrotting rubbish from hate sites.

[smileitsfatz]

I guess it was sum U.S. soilders who did this 

[irishxxkelt]

@smileitsfatz That is one of the silliest comments I ever read on YouTube.

[smileitsfatz]

@irishxxkelt yeeh and your sum silliest shit that been thinking my opinion may be rong

[irishxxkelt]

@smileitsfatz Could you re-write that in English that I could understand please...........

[smileitsfatz]

@smileitsfatz Basically You are a poo :) who thinks my opinion is wrong and if you still cant read that i'm sure there is something wrong with your brain You Dumb Prik

[VladislavGomulka]

What else is new?

Palestinians might kill themselves, Israelis, americans, all the humanity, nobody will care.

To them everything is allowed.

To such a degree people are brainwashed to love their killers.

[irishxxkelt]

@VladislavGomulka It is a sad fact but true but Palestinians do not repsect life.

[jevrej1977]

MASKED PALESTINIAN TERRORISTS KILLED HIM WHILE BLAIMING JEWS FOR THAT..

this is traditional,,blame the joose

[revol148]

oh well trying to do something POSITIVE in such a hateful part of the world was simply asking almost inviting trouble.Let both sides get on with business as usual - the business is of course hating,humiliating and killing each other - all of course aided and abetted by the outside world.What a waste - shame.

[sherhak]

a great loss not only to palestinians but to the world. such a cool guy. those standing for peace and compassion are always so beautiful, and the world will always love them. R.I.P. juliano. you're a bright light in heaven.

[spykerhond]

masked kikes killed him with orders straight from lekut .

[PURELOVECREW]

Israel killed this guy..100%

[Fitplayer66]

@PURELOVECREW Just blame Israel on everything and ignore all the evidence on the contrary.

[PURELOVECREW]

@Fitplayer66 From the creation of the terrorist state of Israel, the middleeast has turned to shit. YES, I blame everything on the zionist blood thurst Fake AskNAZI Jews.

Juliano was loved in Plaestine....not hated. Yes there were people who were against him but I doubt very much they killed him.

FREE PALESTINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO FLY ZONE OFF GAZA!!!!!

[Fitplayer66]

@PURELOVECREW You just went against everything Juliano tried to emphasize and teach through art and culture. He wanted a reconciliation between both sides - to understand eachother. Juliano was not against Israel itself, he was against the occupation. He supports the western enlightenment ideas of free speech, freedom of assembly, freedom of press, universal suffrage, equality and civil rights and liberties.

[Fitplayer66]

@PURELOVECREW Juliano also emphasized that you cannot solely blame Israel alone. You also have to admit the corruption in Palestinian organizations and the extremists which halter the peace process. Both sides have committed wrongdoings.

[DarkReapersGrim]

@PURELOVECREW Completely agree, the terrorist israeli government killed him for many reasons including: A) He exposed the terror of the israeli government against the Palestinian citizens by becoming an activist for the human rights and dignity of his people and B) He was the son of a mixed marriage (something the terrorist government of israel not only prohibits, but publicly advertises against). It's even against the law for a Jewish woman to marry an Arab man in that racist country.

[PURELOVECREW]

@DarkReapersGrim Spot on Mate!

[avimeni1]

look for in my movies - juliano mer - جوليانو مير خميس

[SETSETCIRCLE]

Iam from Saudi Arabia and iam so so sory for his death i wateched his ducumentry Arna's Children and a cried ,

[montezoma]

I'm very disgusted by whoever did this, what a fukin bastard.

we have our bugs. we are not all angels

RIP Khamis.. you will be remembered forever

[sleeplesseye]

If all Israelis were like Juliano, true democracy and peace would be possible in that country. But they aren't. Israeli democracy is a bluff... and if you know anything about Juliano, you would know he would absolutely agree with this statement.

[Sepaisful]

Was murdered by Palestinian animals

[WinkyMaeve]

@Sepaisful You know he is an Arab right??

dumb fuck.

[Sepaisful]

@WinkyMaeve His mother is Jewish.

He was murdered by his own people, the people he supported. LMAO

[WinkyMaeve]

@Sepaisful and his father is an Arab, and you get your Y chromosone from your dad.

I am a Persian Mizrahi Jew, you ignorant spiteful khazarian

[yamenhawit]

@WinkyMaeve I'm glad to see that there are people who have some sense. Don't worry about this guy you are arguing with here, he's an idiot. People like that are purely anti-peace anti-humanism.

thanks

[Sepaisful]

@yamenhawit Palestinians/Arabs are 100% anti-peace and that's why they murdered Juliano

[yamenhawit]

@Sepaisful that's funny, because I am Palestinian (living in the West Bank) and I am 100% pro-peace and a humanist. In fact most people are pro-peace, you just don't see those people screaming on t.v... Do you know what it is called when you judge an entire group of people based on the actions of a few? It is called "prejudice". And prejudice people are 100% anti-peace.

[Sepaisful]

@yamenhawit In what way exactly do you support peace? Murdering 5 people in their sleep with the justification of them being "settlers"?

[yamenhawit]

@Sepaisful See? lol, you are doing it again... When did I say that? Any act of murder is murder, there is no justification...

[Sepaisful]

@yamenhawit Recent poll shows over 30% of Palestinians support this terror

[yamenhawit]

@Sepaisful lol even if that is true, anyone who is in that group is a horrible person. but then why would you say something stupid like Palestinians/ARABS "100% anti-peace"? Why not 30%? I would love to take a similar poll when it comes to the crazed, messianic settlers & how they feel about the killings of Palestinians. If you want to be critical of a situation while still being respected, you have to understand that there are wrongdoings on both sides; and the root of problems (often religion)

[Sepaisful]

@yamenhawit I think it's you who first said I am fully "anti-peace".. I am fully "anti-terror" and peace cannot be made with terrorists

[yamenhawit]

@Sepaisful oh wow you sound like a politician. no one is talking about terrorists or making peace with them. they should all be killed. but terror can come from both sides, which it does. The only reason you are arguing with me is because I'm Palestinian, otherwise there is no argument; we are both against terrorism, against murder, and against injustice. I even partly supported the U.S. intervention in Iraq. All I ask is that you not be prejudice or make racist remarks, they only make it worse

[Sepaisful]

@yamenhawit There is almost zero terror done by Jews..

I argue with Israelis about similar subjects, it has nothing to do with your nationality

[yamenhawit]

@Sepaisful come live in the occupied territories for a while and you might refute that first statement. I argue with palestinians and jews and others as well; we need to always look at things in retrospect. anyway, we need to get passed the concept of "jew," "christian," "muslim," (in fact religion has been the cause of most problems in the past) "arab," etc, and understand we are all people and most of us want peace and democracy. this convo is going in cirlces, so let's stop there. take care..

[Sepaisful]

@yamenhawit If all Arabs were like you, democracy would be possible.. But they aren't

Explains why no single Arab country is democratic, this is a bluff.

[Sepaisful]

@WinkyMaeve יא אידיוט אני מזרחי לא אשכנזי.. אתם הפרסים והמרוקאים החראות העדות הכי מעצבנות וערסיות בישראל

לא טוב לך פה? יאללה הביתה יא איראני

או שאתה סתם מתחזה ערבי..

[Sepaisful]

@WinkyMaeve תוכיח שאתה יהודי

[Sepaisful]

@WinkyMaeve Don't pretend to be a Jew you primitive Arab

[rachelgolem]

A progressive Jewish Actor was murdered by Palestinian militants.

37 years from now, they will name a street for him in a 100 year old "Refugee Camp".

[WinkyMaeve]

@rachelgolem He was an Arab Jew you moron, he never identified himself as "Jewish" but as a Palestinian Jew, PALESTINIAN JEW, not Israeli Jew.

just stop talking you right wing extremist go live in a settlement and attack children with the other lunatics

[Sepaisful]

@WinkyMaeve You're an Arab piece of shit.. You murder your only few supporters LOL

[HanoD19]

STOP DISCUSSING POLITICAL BULLSHIT!! THE GUY IS DEAD, SHOW SOME RESPECT! :(

[bestsavta1]

A murder is a murder is a murder! Even a man who did nothing but bring happiness, comfort and culture to his brethern was gunned down probably a result of factional fanaticism. Peace can only come about when people are at peace with themsleves and their brothers. We will wait patiently and in the menatime, RIP Juliano.

[rachelgolem]

I nominate Amy Goodman to run the theater.

[sue2000q]

You will always be remembered. Everyone that knew you, loved you.

You were an angel on earth.

MAY YOU REST IN PEACE JULIANO!!!

I'm sure your mom was ready for you, with open arms.

[montgomify]

it is to simple just to choose one or the other side , the main thing is that the killers and their costumer don`t want freedom they are full of destructive criminal hate they want to force up hatefeelings , so now it`s even more important to give freedom to the children of the freedom theatre to show the killers and their customers that the freedom theatre is much more powerfull than the destructive hate.love to all creative children of the freedom theatre

[sbg75]

He was murdered because the islamists don't like boys and girls "mixing" on the stage, just face the facts people.

[SupositoryRepository]

OMG When did he die? When did this air? Is this a new clip? I can't believe this. He directed the first Palestinian rap video I ever saw by DAM. This is so sad, what's happened to Palestine. The Zionists have ruined almost all legitimate Palestinian civil society, so increasingly all that is left are extremists. Christians used to be so important to the society, and now they're almost all gone. His death is a horrible sign and symbol of what's become of Falasteen.

[bestsavta1]

@SupositoryRepository : Is Israel responsible for this too? Stop the BS, most Christians are no longer on the west bank NOT because of Israel, but because Muslims don't want them there. Nothing has become of "Falasteen" because there is no "Falasteen". There won’t be until its residents take their lives & do something with them that is creative & civil instead of concentrating on hate & death.

[SupositoryRepository]

@bestsavta1 Go to your local Arab neighborhood. Find Palestinian Christians from Bethlehem, Beit Sahour, Nazareth, or Taybeh, and ask them why they don't live there anymore. 99.9% will tell you Israel's racist policies made it impossible for them to live, so they left.

[SupositoryRepository]

@bestsavta1 Oh, I just checked your page. You're an Israeli. That explains everything.

[bestsavta1]

@SupositoryRepository , so what does that mean?? that I am a baby killer? that I am stupid?? that I am not allowed to have my own opinion which may differe from yours? Why don't you listen to Bridget Gabriel & find out what really happened to the Christians in the west bank? (and Lebanon too for that matter), From your name i can only gather that you are stuck s far up the suppository repository that you are not really obkective to judge anything. I'm off to make matzah for passover, beware!!!!

[frostedmucus]

there needs to be no delineation between palestine or israel politics here. the main point is that we lost an individual, horrifically, that was dedicating himself towards youth and the arts. sad loss, indeed.

[GuyJacksonDP]

Sad loss



[GuyJacksonDP]

Just a proof who the real criminals are (clue: not the israelis)

[kowalalambo]

@GuyJacksonDP Who else then. Israel was built by criminals, what else would you expect. The one responsible for a genocide against entire nation is probably responsible for this too

[SylvanaForrester]

The ugliest aspect of it is that he was carrying his infant son in his arms when it happened. The close friend of his who was interviewed on DN! this morning was obviously so distraught he could barely string coherent sentences together. I wonder when all is said and done if we will find out who the perpetrators were. It's hard to believe this man was receiving death threats. For what? What could anyone possibly find wrong with the work he was doing?

[atwater2002]

Arabs up to their usual no good. Savages!

[abumiz]

@atwater2002 Your talk about Arabs belong to a Zionist racist thug.

Juliano, like his mom Arna, knew and fought the real savages and criminals, the Zionist colonial settlers who are stealing the Palestinians' lands and homes, and committing the crimes of ethnic cleansing.

See the documentary "Arna's Children", and listen to Arna and Juliano own words and talk about the Palestinian Arabs and the Zionist crimes, ignorant.

[DarkReapersGrim]

@atwater2002 Fuck you bitch. Why would Arabs kill a man who was an advocate for their freedom and dignity? Why would they kill a man who set up a theater and community center for the people of the Jenin refugee camp? If anybody had a motive to kill him it would be the israeli government for many reasons including: A) He exposed the terror of the israeli government and B) He was the son of a mixed marriage (something the terrorist government of israel not only prohibits, but advertises against!).

[atwater2002]

@DarkReapersGrim My friend, the question is why do Arabs kill in the first place? Who knows? I think that's what they are taught from a young age. They're brain-washed to think that they are doing it for their religion, and that they will be rewarded for it. Isn't that what a "jihad" is?

I know......not all Arabs, not all Muslims. But the small radical group that does it gives all Muslims a bad name. I don't think you can deny this...

[DarkReapersGrim]

@atwater2002 If you don't think Arabs in Palestine are frustrated over the increasingly difficult situation they live under as a result of decades of racist/zionist-israeli policies including the tough economic sanctions placed on them, the evictions from their homes, the continual encroachment on their lands, etc, then maybe it isn't the Arabs who are brainwashed. Maybe it is you who eats this zionist propaganda like a little child eats cereal while watching Saturday morning cartoons.

[atwater2002]

@DarkReapersGrim Ok, lets say for a second that you're correct about the Palestinian situation. Now explain to me the hatred toward Israel by Iran, Iraq, Syria, Taliban,......list goes on (all Islamic). And don't tell me its to help Palestinians because you know as well as I do that they don't give a crap about the Palestinians. So why the hate? Why do they want Israel eradicated? Why? Please explain.

[Fitplayer66]

@DarkReapersGrim Let's think about this for a second. You have a person, claims he is Zionist, is half Jewish. He advocates freedom for the Palestinians based on western enlightenment values such as equality and individual liberties. Then some extremists Islamic claim he is corrupting the youth and skewing them away from true Islam. Did you just ignore what was said in the beginning of the video? He already recieved death threats.

[Fitplayer66]

@DarkReapersGrim Ironically, in another video Juliano predicted that his death would occur by some extremist Palestinian who would view him as an enemy of the Islamic faith.

[maghrebianka]

To be honest it seems like jews planned this murder to conflict Palestinians again

That's a tremendous loss

[*] RIP Juliano

[jeffsalzberg]

@maghrebianka , Really? And your evidence is....?

Note: "I'm sure it MUST be so!" is not evidence.

[jeffsalzberg]

There are people who honestly believe that Israel is wrong. there are others who use criticism of Israel as a convenient beard for their bigotry against Jews. Fortunately, the latter group is often considerate enough to identify themselves by referring to "the Jews" instead of "the Israelis".

[AlKiefah]

We will missing you Juliano

i can understand this

[adnetjm]

OMG! What a shame! He is helping palestinian children and, palestinian extremest were sending him death threats? This is a life changing event! His poor wife, children, family and, all those who loved him. Why and who killed this big hearted man.

[ha3ha3]

@adnetjm Palestinian people Loved him, it's not Palestinians who killed him, it's Shitraeli's who had sent someone from their side to kill him, to make a conflict between the Palestinians themselves, it's all because of Shitrael's terrorist regime.

[natritious1]

SAD

[FreeLebanon2007]

RIP Juliano. Your friend Nabil is right, whoever did this did not know you. You are loved.

[sue2000q]

Juliano Mer Khamis will always be remembered.

Please keep his spirit alive, donate to The Freedom Theatre:

May he rest in peace. Allah Yarhamack ya Juliano. You will be remembered by me.

[cu4870]

And we are, the American people going to say ENOUGH! Enough with your BS, MyTube22T ! God bless tzanhanim !

[MyTube22T]

I wouldn't be surprise if Mossad did it. Israel does not want peace. They want an excuse to get rid of Palestinians and take their land. They won't succeed but these Zionists criminals will keep killing until we, Americans, say ENOUGH!!!!

[marypoppins2009]

This is a mossad hit? These children are traumatized..and will remember this great man...and their art and their goals will live on and become stronger...This was a good man indeed...

[grecobactrian]

God bless him.

[anonforuz]

that is depressing.
