    HOW ISRAEL STEAL THE PALESTINE LAND

    Every people in the world should watch this documentary so they they will understand how New Israel was created by british from world war 1 and supported by the united states after world war 2.

    Obviously all the western powers including the USA doesnt wanr the jewish refugees from europe so they agreed to dump all these refugees in the land of palestine.

    This is not a biased documentary but rather the truch which the zionist israel want to hide from the public.

    Now we know that these people stole the land of the palestines,dk we still comdone and support them.

    Pray for the oppressed palestinians.i hope one day they will het back they homeland from the invades jewish refugees from europe.

    Not accurate and very contradictory

    This is a very biased documentary that has so many iancuracies, misleading facts and contradictions

    Some of the innacuracies are so blatant, it's beyond obvious, like when one person stated that there was never a Jewish state in history, but history and archealogical finds prove the existance of previous Jewish states, from King David, etc., however this is all denied.

    An example of being misleading, they mention that in 1917 that the Jews only accounted for 10% of the population, implying that this only applied to Israel. At that time there was no Israel or Jordan, it was all the British Mandate of Palestine, with no records of the numbers in the seprate regions. The number they refer to is 10% in what is today Israel, Jordan and parts of Syria, and basic history will tell you that.

    There are parts that are also border line anti-semetic, saying how Jews think, etc.

    This is really not worth the watch. You would be far better to read up accredited and factual material. There are also some parts that are border line ati-semetic.
