  • World war 1 and 2 that ravaged most of Eurpoe was payback and God's wrath for what they did to the the jamaicans, haitians, and every other country they stole and left to suffer. God let them reap what they sowed through the war that occurred in Europe during the early 1900s, and im thankful for that

  • @21jamaicanboi You're a cunt.

  • @scientific1982 they said the same to Jesus my friend. Cant deny the truth

  • RIP NORMA SHIRLEY. Thank you for the beautiful dishes.

  • @abrown66 I am surprised to hear about Norma Shirley. Was she sick?

  • I rarely disagree with Eddie Seaga, but he said the breadfruit is from French-Polynesia, but wasn't it Captain Bligh who brought the breadfruit from Africa?...I suppose Mr. Seaga is talking about the indigenous origin of breadfruit...Jamaica has the best food on the planet, not just "Jamaican food" like stew peas with pig's tail, curry goat, oxtail, ackee and saltfish...Jamaican chinese and indian foods are the best...Even our KFC beats north america's...Jamaica is blessed.

  • @fishandfestival ...Captain Bligh brought the breadfruit from French Polynesia as a staple for the slaves in the Caribbean.Did you ever watch the movie 'Mutiny on the Bounty' with Marlon Brando,that is what this movie was about, so Eddie is right.

  • Out of many, one people. Jamaica; land we love.

  • One terrible thing in Jamaica is the aggressivly homophobic culture.

  • @eviltreemonster shut your face, fag! We like our island to be fag free. No AIDS carriers welcome.

  • Comment removed

  • @eviltreemonster you and your kind will never live to see that happen. Imbecillic bitch. Get some decency.

  • @Trelli28

    I'm tired of your homophobic shit. Do us all a favour and slit your throat you little punk.

  • @eviltreemonster lesbian lowlife, you need to stop patronising Jamaican sites. Where dogs are not invited, bones are not provided. I declare that your evil will die such that you will see who are today as being a complete stranger and wonder how you ever lived such perversity.

  • @Trelli28

    Just you remember, every dog has it's day!

  • @eviltreemonster fuck you faggot jamaica is the best

  • @adz09ish

    If Jamaica is the best, then why domost Jamaicans live abroad? Answer that one fucker.

  • @eviltreemonster because fag jamaicans go to countries where their are more apportunities more jobs etc. than their homeland.that does not mean they hate jamaica.they have to make money.most jamaicans abroad including myself will love to go back home its just that its hard to get a job that can support the family.america is all work and no play.jamaica is a great country. if god said being gay is a sin and a abomination why do you love sucking and fucking men? answer that one fucker.

  • @adz09ish

    OK thyen. I don't give a fuck what god said. If he even existed that is. Is what I want that matters. not you fake friend in the sky. PS if Gays are so powerless in Jamaica, why was there 2 pride marches this year in Kingston and Montego Bay?

    Answer that one dickface.

  • @adz09ish

    How do we know you ain't the faggot?

  • @eviltreemonster your own evil condemns you.

  • @Trelli28

    Like I've never heard that before.

  • @eviltreemonster

    Not homophobic, Godfearing, it goes against nature, and against the law of God, just like the law of thou shall not kill, steal etc. A man was fatally chopped up, because he raped a little girl. Wrong that they killed the man, but he reap the consequences of his action. I have a homosexual friend, I love and respect him, and will do anything I can do for him, but he know I dont condone his choice of lifestyle, just like a man who cheats around on his wife, both wrong!

  • wow blue bikini @ 0:46

  • ald0sco--- jamaican is a nationalty not a race,he has an accent be he is a jamaican you moron,my god don,t some of you people learn something about the country and the culture before posting your ignorant comments you piece of crap.

  • yeah idiot why do u find that strange ? my family chinese jamaican, one love jamdown

  • I have been watching a lot of these Street food episodes, I so wish they concentrated on the food in general , rather than dwell in the political ramifications and absolutely stop going into homes, Street food is street food .. please keep it to that , there is so much missed out because they end up concentrating on the 'other' stories

  • i hate watchin these video...all i do is cry..i want to go home dread...lol..love it..but u c d thing..everybody were slave and every baddy bruk weh ah have bizniz weh black man deh badmind..yes mi kno some nice black nizniz man dung deh..but dem too badmind...still a jamaica 2 d worl mi seh

  • haha, a chinese man with a jamaican accent

  • So what is so funny about that? Chinese or not, he is Jamaican so he will have a Jamaican accent.

  • @sashi876 Its like seeing black british! People aren't used to seeing it. So they need to get out more

  • He is Jamaican of Chinese decent,but he is nevertheless 100% Jamaican.I am sure Chinese people born in America do not have a Chinese accent but an American one,it is the same with Jamaica and other countries in the Caribbean

  • this was so tru...in jamaica we never discriminate who's white/black/indian or watever...." we were all equal...we were all jamaicans"

  • 7:10 <-- lmao, did anyone else find it funny that the host of the show was eating the whole time while the lady was speaking

  • lol

  • BEAUTIFUL ISLAND WITH DIVERSITY!!

    POLITICS AND "ME LEADER BORN YEAH" MADE A CORRUPT GOVT FLAILED TO DELIVER THE FREEDOM TO A MEANINGFUL ECONOMICALLY VIABLE COUNTRY!

    POVERTY PAVED THE WAY TO TOWARDS CUBA THAN RICHER TO USA.. SHORT SIGHTED BLACK HIERARCHY MADE FOOL OF THEMSELVES. BUT ORDINARY JAMAICANS ARE BEAUTIFUL AND LOVING PEOPLE. it's sad that it became poor!

  • thanks for posting the video...cant thank enough

  • Did the British in those times, leave any country without oppressing their people??

  • hahahahaahahah

  • @Zinnikhan That's what conquerors do! Why single out the Brits any more than the Babylonians, Assyrians, Persians, Romans, Ottomans, etc?

  • @Zinnikhan nope!

  • This is an awesome video.

  • omg...i luv sean paul...he is such a cutie!!

  • nice video. But did you have to mention at 1:46 about drugs guns etc ? There are enough stuff on youtube to remind us of that. Could have left that out. The title is "Street Food". Do not understand what that statement had to do with food.

  • Jamaica don't discriminate among people of different religion.. big Jamaica one love " out of many one people

  • Comment removed

  • I cant belive they are also in the Caribbean spreading their filth.They are the crap that ran down Satans ass and left a brown stain on his mattress.Their religion mandates an indiscriminate hatred towards anything goy based.They own BOJ .You will never get of debt thanks to the World Bnak,the IMF and Thomas de La Rue!The prime minister really administers the policies stipulated by the IMF and World Bank when he borrrows money from them.3rd world countries are created by the devil incarnate jew!

  • This video gives a nice glimpse into our heritage. From here, one is to look deeper into thyne culture!

  • Do the Olympics commission intends to eradicate Jamaican natural food for the sake of a gold medal, and that Jamaican athletics should starve while the olympics is going on?

  • It is weird to you because you have little grasp of statistics.

    There are like 85.000 Indians, how are they going to be the largest group in Jamaica.there are even more whites then Indians.Jamaica is a black nation with 91,5% of blacks its what it is.

  • Great Video!

  • In Nicaragua we cook Run Down( rundon) all the time. Jamaicans came during the English colonies to my country and mixed with the Arawaks. Bluefields, Nicaragua.

  • On part two they talk about the indigenous. For some reason though they say they were Taino. If I'm not mistaken the Tainos were in Puerto Rico and the Arawaks were in Jamaica.

  • been going there since i was six i am now35  35

  • Great video, extremely informative  Enjoyed the history lesson. Can't wait for part 2!!!

  • I know, that White Jewish Guy with the Jamaican accent could definately be a comeadian!! lol

    I love Jamaica!!

  • my parents are jamaican so i grew up used to the accent. However, it was strange the first time i heard a white jamaican. But, then the first black and asian scots were equally unusual. I don't know why people are disssing you for pointing this out?

  • It was suprising to me when I went home after 30yrs. to hear some one white sound like me just how shelterd I was never went to school with one only saw chines ja.

  • as this is for al jazzera news which is based in Doha, Qatar, most of the people which watch this network no almost nothing about Jamaica and its history...

  • DUTTY YEAH!!

  • wonderful...

    informative...

    well worked out...

    favorited

  • very well done

  • Jamaica is a beautiful place. Would love to sample that fried fish. I'm surprised AlJazeeraEnglish does not accuse the Zionists for all of Jamaica's problems.

  • Well please explain, I'd like to hear it.

  • Oh, sorry I didn't catch it the first time. But now that I know about AlJazerraEnglish's bias, I'll be sure to think twice when watching their videos on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, if I will bother to watch them at all.

  • @Zuck

    "AlJazeeraEnglish is so blatantly one sided when it comes to Israel/Palestine"

    Then get the fuck out of Palestine and Jamaica and go back to Khazar you fake faggot wannabe jew  fuck!

  • Hey :) Thanks for exposing yourself with your hateful words!

    END THE PALESTINIAN OCCUPATION WITH TERRORISM! Coexistence is the only answer! NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE! GOD BLESS ISRAEL and JAMAICA!

  • @Zuck

    Do the jews believe god is a nepotist?

  • @Zuck

    I just read some of the trash you posted on your page.You believe you came from the middle east.You are khazar material.The italians greeks all consider themselves above all races based on their history.The ashkenaz howveer adopted a history.Your ancestors didn't come from the middle east they were a bunch of nomads shamans turned proselytes.Can one tell the difference between a jew and an European,they are the same!

  • According to Princeton University professor Bernard Lewis: "This Khazar theory is supported by no evidence whatsoever. It has long since been abandoned by all serious scholars in the field, including those in Arab countries, where the Khazar theory is little used except in occasional political polemics."

  • @Zuck

    The crucial point in the anthropology of the Khazar jews is they are a religious sect composed of racial elements acquired by proselytism and intermarriage during their migration in various parts of the world.

  • @Zuck

    Biblical evidence shows Israel in its formation was composed of various racial elements;the Amorites, dolichocephalic,and tall;the Hittites,a dark-complexioned race; the Cushites,and others.Abraham and Joseph married Egyptians;Moses married a Midianite;Samson was a Philistine;King David's mother was a Moabite,and he married a princess of Geshur;Solomon's (mother was a Hittite),loved many strange women,the Moabites, Animonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites..

  • Modern DNA studies on the Y chromosome of Jews worldwide have largely disproven the Khazar origin theory for the vast majority of Jews, including the Ashkenazi. A 2005 study by Nebel et al, based on Y chromosome polymorphic markers, showed that Ashkenazi Jews are more closely related to other Jewish and Middle Eastern groups than to their host populations in Europe.

  • @Zuck

    I've met over 20 jews who copied/pasted those very words beginning with " Modern DNA science."Close relation" isn't empirical evidence.The findings of physical anthropology show that, contrary to popular view, there is no jewish race. Anthropometric measurements of jewish groups in many parts of the world indicates they differ greatly from one another with respect to physical characteristics - stature, weight, skin colour, cephalic index, facial index, blood groups, etc

  • realrasmckhaile:

    Haha, serves me right to try and reason or have an intelligent conversation with a holocaust denier. You can call me names, like a child would, and espouse crazy theories that are universally rejected by all serious scholars, if you wish. Youtube is great because people can share their thoughts and add to the market place of ideas. But your words and channel expose you for who you are: intellectually dishonest, full of hate, and rather silly sounding. Cheers!

  • Comparisons of cranial indices,blood types,etc.,show a great similarity between proselyte jews and their host-nation than between proselyte jews living in different countries.With regard to blood type,jewish groups show considerable differences among themselves and marked similarities to the Gentile environment.The Hirszfeld "biochemical index"

  • i got one word for you

    "Lemba" .....google it

    todah raba

  • Beautiful video and very informative. I´m looking forward to the next one.

  • What an interesting news clip!

  • I thought this was interesting, too. I bit different from what is usually featured on Aljazerra. I particularly enjoyed learning how diverse people seemed to work together, and their cultural roots are celebrated through food. Nice, indeed...

  • RyRyVids, that's a real good attitude there. I bet you make a lot of friends. Don't judge a whole society by one of its members, right mate?

    --dreadlocked nerd freedom fighter bundangbear

  • You're just a racist, and I don't have discourse with racists. I know plenty of Blacks. I taught English in Teach for America for 3 years in a town in the American South that was 99%+ Black. I work in Korea now, but some of my best friends are Nigerian and Ghanaian. Son, I'm international.

  • So you have friends who are around you based on ganja - not on your personality or common interests - and you wonder why they are not loyal?

    That is just like feeding a cat a stray cat your lunch a few times an expecting it to be affectionate to you forever because you had given it food once upon time. The cat was only interested in the food...not you. Same with your so-called "friends." It would have been the same whether they were black or not. Even a child should know that.

  • So would the entire fucking white race be on trial if a fucking cracker stole your money?

    Nigga please. Don't give me some tire, bullshit rationale about how you came to hate black people. You already hated them from the beginning. At least be fucking honest about that.

    Anyway, go get high you chronic smoking racist hippy.

  • Saint Lucia and Jamaica are two different places.
