Salman Abu Sitta: The Geography of Occupation

[arvindATrajs]

if there was ethnic cleansing then how come abu sitta is still alive? if the israelis did do ethnic cleaning then abu sitta would have been dead ... long time ago.

most of the jews who migrated to israel were fleeing from europe (where they were persecuted by nazis and then communists) and from arab lands (iraq, iran, etc.)

BUNCH OF LIE AND FEEL SORRY FOR HIM ,GOT NUMBER FROM NOWHERE WITH LIE AFTER LIE UNBELIEVABLE WHAT THIS MUSLIM "PALESTINIAN" CAN DO AND SAY ! THE TRUE IS WAY TO FAR TO START EXPLAIN TO THIS AH ,

[tony20201]

deep. fuck isreal

[isrtor]

some of the material presented is clearly non factual. he claims israel held a policy of starting every operation with a massacre and they would "smash babies heads" and so.

There were cases of atrocities but nothing like he suggest, were are the facts?

[yoyoizABEnMOE]

@isrtor well israels claim tht palestine is theirs has no factuals soo i wudnt be talking

[isrtor]

@yoyoizABEnMOE Don't try to change the subject, he is wrong to claim Israelli smashed babies heads and commited massacres as a matter of policy.

These harsh and strong claims demand solid proof.

[yoyoizABEnMOE]

@isrtor i completley understand where ur coming from my friend but u have to admit tht israel was mean back then but palestine and isreal both have the right to exist in peace withouth a concrete wall between them i am from palestine and my best friend jacob is israeli and we get along well than why cant our governments

[davidqdavidqdavid]

transer the palestinians

[jramberg]

Interesting to hear first hand accounts of the history. Seems Israel has used the same technique for years. Massacres, destroying resources such as wells and intimadation of native peoples. Shame on the world for allowing such crimes against humanity perpetrated by the zionist criminals.

[papapap7]

thats my dads uncle israel sucks

[DigitalBath1234]

If you believe his "facts", you should also believe that 9/11 was engineered by CIA.

As to"..will ever be accepted by the Palestinians...".. Well, they lived in the squalid camps built for them by their Arab brethren for 61 years, and will continue to do so. Good luck!

[Bouncert]

He's talking about raw facts. he's talking about a personal experience. It seems that no matter how clear the truth is, some people just refuse to see it or admit it

[DigitalBath1234]

Okay, whoa. I never wrote this. I believe that someone hacked my account. I'm sorry to whoever thinks that I am responsible for writing this message, but it was not me. Apologies.

please help stop the illegal muslim occupation of algeria.

[LongShlong125]

Well the arabs are the true occupiers, there like a bully kid that whines when it's got hit back and lies to the teacher and the jocks to get thier revenge.

Go rate this -1 lol , I assume you got a lot of time on your hands with european welfare eh achmed?

[LongShlong125]

Lol at dumb arabs whining about thier occupation .

Your only conviencing yourself and dumb ignorant hippies.

I say stop the arab ocupation and send them all back to the saudis.

[krapin]

I see...But why is it that this man fails to mention that 22 Arab countries attacked Israel on the day immediately following its creation. The only reason the Palestinians left their homes is becuase they were told to do so by their Arab counterparts, who assured them that they would "drive the Jews into the sea." It is therefore bias to claim that Jews are at fault for Palestinian suffering.

[naouu]

this video is bullshit !! nothing is true!

Palestine existed even during the ottoman empire

even syria existed! great syria !

there are 5 millions refugees!! who made it? israel!

they destroyed arab villages, they even changed the names of villages

and who made it? israel !

[Yogy07]

This video is Arab propaganda = lies.

[berliita]

Thanks, AlternateFocus, for making such voices heard. I am an Israeli of Jewish descent, and i support your excellent and important work.

It occurred to me that, when you take Dr. Abu Sitta's words uttered in the time span 17:19-19:36, and replace "Palestinian" by "Jew" and "58 years" by "2000 years", you'll get the essence of mainstream secular Zionism, as noted by the Palestinian activist Mr. Walid Shoebat.

[berliita]

At the same time, people should understand, that there is no such a thing as "Zionism", just as there is no such a thing as "Judaism" "or "Christianity ". "Zionism" is an umbrella term for different schools of socio-political thought, some of which are completely at odds with one another. When people say they are "anti-Zionists", one should ask them: "What type of Zionism do you reject?"

[berliita]

Take Herzl, for instance, widely considered the founder of Zionism. He was not favorable of settlement in Palestine or in any other place which is densely populated, and was fervent about complying with international law. He was also strongly supported the separation of religion from state. It is quite obvious that the policies undertaken by the various Israeli governments in the last 60 years cannot be considered Zionist according to Herzl's view of Zionism.

[jimmyratz]

The U.S. gives Israel billions of dollars in military aid every year and Senator Clinton's vote backs that money for death. Israel is a racist settler state established in 1949 that has denied the original inhabitants, the Palestinians, many basic rights, often including the basic right to live.

[jimmyratz]

Besides denying Palestinians the same rights to travel, jobs, housing, and education as allowed Jews, the racist and religious Zionist State has used massacres and other forms of terror, wars, and torture to drive out the original Palestinian inhabitants.

[MOSSADAGENT666]

ahhh, I remember being a young recruit and conducting house raids and collecting the electric bills and water (ha ha!) bills from Palestinians at 3 or 4 in the morning. It was so fun harassing those families and shooting anyone who mouthed off! - I used to love going out on military raids and choosing which girls to arrest and take back to our sex-prisons... Now I sit behind a desk and plan false-flag ops on Gaza and Lebanon all day. - sigh... :( ahhhhh, the good ol days!...

[draghollow]

I don't get it. With all the oil money that the Arabs have why don't they buy Congress the way the Jews do? Why not buy an American T.V. network and get their meesage out? Somethings fishy here.

[adwan999]

as u said Jews control Congress now! how can Arabs get a permission from the congress to broadcast new channel against them . Thank God we have Internet so people can find the truth behind. Internet is the main defense line against Israeli governmental terrorism.

[utvikingr]

Arabs might try siting their military operations AWAY from civilians, instead of using civilians as shields.

Oh brave lions of islam! Their excuse is "they have more and better weapons than us!!! How can we be at fault!!! Deliberate sacrifice for propaganda effect. Moloch is proud to accept your continued sacrifices, 'tube'.

[Excelsoft]

Israel is the most terrorist racist state in the world.

Bush adminstration did the 9/11 and Israelis knew.

[Crazylalalalala]

bullshit most polistinains left when they knew that the neighboring arab countries are going to attack to avoid arabs friendly fire from the arabs armies

not that most of the land given to the jews was land that could not be coltivated doe to swaps espacialy in the north all of the area south of gaza was unoccupied by arabs nor jews it is a desert (about 50% of palastine where there were no people living in)

[TheHarlequin13]

That the Palestinians left their homes voluntarily is one of the biggest myths of all time. They were ethnically cleansed. Threatened with violence and expelled by force.

And not only were the Jews given more land under the partition plan than they were entitled to, they also received the most fertile farming land.

[Crazylalalalala]

actually. The land that was given to Israel was mostly desert and swamps. If you ever looked at a map of Israel you would have known that. Land that was bought by jews from arabs.

Most palestinains did move on thier free will when the neighboring nations invaded. To stay out of the way thinking that they would comeback when the arabs won. THe arabs nations encoraged that themselves.

[Shiningtribe]

I'd appreciate some links/evidence to these facts of Palestinians wishing to leave to avoid friendly fire, please as I'm not sure which area of my local library to check. Fiction or non-fiction?

[Crazylalalalala]

If you use common since you would have known that as in any conlict people live the areas that are in war.

but if you insist.

"Since 1948 we have been demanding the return of the refugees to their homes. But we ourselves are the ones who encouraged them to leave. Only a few months separated our call to them to leave and our appeal to the United Nations to resolve on their return" (The Memoirs of Haled al Azm, Beirut, 1973, Part 1, pp. 386-387).

[Crazylalalalala]

"The Arab armies entered Palestine to protect the Palestinians from the Zionist tyranny but, instead, they abandoned them, forced them to emigrate and to leave their homeland, and threw them into prisons similar to the ghettos in which the Jews used to live."

— Palestinian Authority (then) Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) (Falastin a-Thaura, (March 1976)

[avi087]

A research report by the Arab-sponsored Institute for Palestine Studies concluded that the majority of the Arab refugees were not expelled and 68% of them "left without seeing an Israeli soldier."

[Batavian187]

Avi why does it matter how people were made into refugees? That doesn't make it illegal for them to return to there homes.

Jews and Arabs have much in common part of the reason the European Zionists choose Palestine as a homeland for Jews was because Arabs and Jews are related to one another.

More related then they are to European or Asian or African peoples.

[ttom1006]

Salma Abu Sitta in this very clip says he never saw an Israeli soldier. But he also describes how terrified he was and why he never saw one - because he had to hide in order not to be killed.

[alphautubeone]

killing arabs at a ratio of 14 to 1 whilst claiming the jews are the victims of terrorism....what a joke. These figures are indefencable to any rational thinker. Note. When Zoinist Israelis are questioned on this fact they always claim they use "minimum force neccesary". Are these the ratio .figures of "minimum force neccesary" by a highly armed millitary fighting a poorly armed arab resistance?. Note: America backs the Israeli Genocists and then wonders why arabs attack america.

[brick4sale]

Those were Saudis on 9/11, AlQuaida trys to dictate things to Palestinian leaders.  They want to control arab countries as well.

[alphautubeone]

are you suprised when arabs attack when america is backing genocide against palestinians?

[brick4sale]

It's not genocide it's apartheid, and that is a loaded insulting question.

[alphautubeone]

are you suprised when america backs apartied then?

[Shiningtribe]

I would STILL call it genocide - by stealth. Deliberate killing of babies & children still goes on. Most recent example I heard was watching a journalist interview a woman recovering in hospital after being shot in the shoulder. She was no longer a mother, as her 3 week old baby had a fatal bullet fired into its head from an IDF soldier in Gaza.
