History is written by the conquerors, not the conquered.

the palestinians will get 'right of return' as soon as the arabs states will allow 'right of reutrn' to the more than million jews who flew from arab countries. or at least a compensation. just to compare the number of palestinians who left is around 600,000.

Happy Birthday Israel

In Arab states, you would die 64t time before you uploaded this video.

Yes, palestine somehow moved its own land to where the israelites wanted a country and then declared war on them. That makes perfect sense.

Stupid liberal traitors, they have to be kicked out of Israel, human garbage

how Israel defines it matters, but even some most widely accepted definition of terrorism can be apply to Palestine, look at who did the Palestinians voted for in 2006, Hamas, which practice shooting rocket to innocent civilians - that is called terrorism where ever you go and they got a majority government in Palestine's parliament. Conclusion, Palestine is the one who did not want peace

[houdini2233]

Jews have lived on the land of palestine for 2000 years, happily alongside christians and islamists. Israel came and destroyed that peace.

[houdini2233]

By no means do I have excuses for terrorism, it is abhorrent, but how is what israel does not called terrorism?

[hongyaohome]

anyone has the right to celebrate the end of 2000 years of homelessness and lasting persecution, but no one should come out and disturb such celebration by saying such end of prosecution is unjust. Palestinians were nomads to begin with anyways, they can move on the other grazing land as they wanted to. but the Jews who were settlers has no home and no where to settle down other than Israel, thus they deserve an undisturbed celebration of independence without the disruption of anyone

[hongyaohome]

unfortunately I nor you were wrong, the only ones who are wrong are those so call "activists" in this video. they are so call sympathetic, but they also forgotten the fact that the Jews were the ones who were under immense persecution throughout most of human history. how will anyone go on to support a "nation" that chooses terrorism as the mean of reaching peace? those who are sympathetic to people who choose terrorism as mean of justice need to rethink their position and get back to real life
