Palestine Pre-1947

Illahi, just lovely.

Palestine will one day be restored to the Arabs, it is a matter of time only. I just hope I live to witness it.

Video is not there anymore.

Video works fine for me.

Nice pictures, painted a beautiful place.

Don’t really know what else to say… I don’t really know *anything* about the situation. History classes skimmed over it, and probably left out the important “un-American” details. :hmph:

Hey, it wasn’t there when I looked. I got a “Video is no longer available” message. It’s there now. It is a beautiful video.

I do have a problem with the “…before they were ethnically cleansed and murdered and made into refugees by the State of Israel.” This is a simplistic statement that seeks to avoid any deeper understanding and to discourage dialogue. After all, this video shows that the Israeli view of Jewish people coming to Israel (returning to Israel is the way they refer to it) and making the desert bloom is false. Most likely deliberately so. It’s true that Jewish people turned some desert land into prosperous agricultural land, but as this video proves, the Israel/Palestine land was not barren, at least not the northern half of the land.

Still, to say “before they were ethnically cleansed and murdered and made into refugees by the State of Israel” is to ignore too much of history.

But it is a beautiful video.

Wow, the Palestinians (Jordanians/Syrians, etc) in these photos look so happy and civilized in the days before religious-politico zealots were in charge.
