Israel builds Palestine destroys. Who would you rather live under? For me it is a definitive Israel!

I didn't say call for amnesia - where did I say tha? Of course, include these horrible crimes in the video - I am just saying add more to the video to show that Palestinians are not only victims, but a vibrant, rich, people - not just the nakba!

Read Ilan Pappes book "The Ethnical cleansing of Palestine" and try to be pro sionistic after that! Especially so called Christian Sionists ought to sit down and read a bit. It would be very healthy for your karma to open up and let the light in on what you do today.

Palestinians ARE unheard victims of an enormous crime against humanity. How can you call for amnesia? No person with dignity and knowledge about this crime can speak like that. Read Ilan Pappes book "The Ethnical cleansing of Palestine" and rethink. When the honor of the palestine nation is restored, then we can talk about other subjects in this matter, I think. /Frea

and an eloquent one at that. Can you please come up with something more cogent? I'm open to your suggestions. I think the video could also include all the successes. What about photos of prominent Palestinians such as Edward Said? Everyday life in Palestine? palestinians such as Mohammad Bakri who live within present-day Israel fighting the system from within?

[hijodechago]

everybody's a fuckin critic. Yes this is a criticism of your criticism.

[divaesq]

I think this video only shows Palestinians as victims, and nothing regarding their amazing successes and strengths in their diaspora. Also, ending the video with a picture of the Dome of the Rock makes it more religious than it should be.
