    I spent several weeks in Lebanon, Jordan, Israel and the West Bank, and Egypt back in 2018. One thing that was amazing to me is how small this whole area is. The area covered in this video is barely the size of New Jersey. For a Texan like me, learning that the distance from Amman to Jerusalem is the same as Austin to San Antonio, or that Beirut is closer to Tel Aviv than Austin is to Waco, is really incredible. I pray that within my lifetime I can take a drive between those cities with something approaching the ease I do within my own state.

      Well after WW2 there were a huge numbers of damaged or unfinished BF-109s in Czechoslovakia which Germans left there. So after the war Czechs used it and made their own plane from it. In 1948 there was a deal between Czechoslovakia and USSR that Czechoslovak army will re-arm to "soviet styled" weapons and equipment so these planes like Avia S-199, Spitfires (which Czechoslovakia had hundreds of pieces) were sold to other countries like Izrael for example which desperately needed it.

As such many, if not all of them, had improperly calibrated or sabotaged sights, which the Czechs had intended to mess with the Germans, but they forgot to inform the IDF about it until after the weapons had been shipped, issued and the Israelis had found out about the messed up sights. Still, it must have struck several of the Jews as ironic that they were now using Czech Vz. 24s, Kar98ks and other weapons made for the Nazis, to defend themselves, along with a smattering of American, British, Russian and even homemade weapons.

      the Czechs did not send shit, these airplanes and munitions and arms were bought by Israel, it was not a gift, on the contrary, the Czechs aked 3 times more the price for the equipment, if the United States had not put an embargo on selling arms to Israel, things would have been different, but Washington had another agenda and was pretty sure that Israel would be destroyed, and many politicians hoped it will happen, the embargo continued until 1960, and until Israel procured the American government with a mig 17, then the USA-Israel relations started to warm up.

    So from what ive gathered, the only reason the nakba happened is because the arabs attacked the israeli state upon creation, thus displacing most of their population due to their own loss. This is a major point because the narrative is often spun the other way around, but in reality the overwhelming majority of the arabs would have become israeli citizens, and even now we see that arab muslims are 20 percent of israeli citizens.

      He literally said in this video at 2:36 that there were already Palestinian refugees from flighting with Jewish militias before the creation of the state of Israel and in fact that was part of the reason why the Arab states invaded. Also if you think that if the Palestinians did not fight them they would have been given Israeli citizenship then you know nothing about Zionism. The plan was always to expel the Palestinians into neighboring countries and replace them with Jewish immigrants. 20th century Zionists spoke openly about this. they did not care about PR as much back then.

      I'm a huge Israel supporter, but I believe there was some displacement of the Palestinian population prior to the 1948 war, though that too may have been in response to violence. But generally, you're absolutely correct. I'm certain that if the Arabs had stayed where they were, Israel would be a very different country today, with a much higher, but still peaceful, Arab population. If I remember correctly, Palestinian media, prior to the 1948 war, exaggerated the severity of Jewish violence to help convince the Arab states to invade. This worked, but it also had the effect of terrifying the Palestinian population, who fled their homes out of fear (thinking they'd return after the Arab armies finished wiping out the Jews)... Big mistake...

      How can Palestinians get expelled if armies fighting for them got defeated? Whats the relation?
      As for the possibillity of them staying, well, that also wouldn't have been allowed by the Israelis because then their state wouldn't have a majority Jewish population.
      It was percisely for this reason, that Israel planned the attacks on villages and expulsion.

      Israeli forces also had superior morale and leadership. The one Arab military to perform well was Jordan b/c they had quality leadership and extensive training as well.
      The equipment likely factors into why Israel had comparable casualties to the Arab armies in the war.

      Second of all, in modern warfare, army vs army, even if you have the same numbers or more, when the other side has more guns, more tanks, more aircraft, more artillery, I hate to break it to you, but that's way worse than just being outnumbered.
      The days of one on one, face to face melee combat where numbers made a real difference are long gone.
      And lastly, seriously? do you really take one very poorly equipped army that fought for it's survival against 5 other countries and won against odds, and compare this to
      a war between a country and a well funded, well trained guerilla terrorist organization?
      I bet you didn't know but Hizbullah is one of the richest if not richest terrorist organization in the world today, and it's constantly being trained by Iran.
      They are supplied by their allies with the most advanced guns, AA and AT guns in the world.
      Hezbollah is a cowardly terrorist organization that only operates through firing missiles at civilians and employs hit and run guerilla warfare against the IDF.
      How exactly is this a "numeric and technology inferiority that kicks Israel's ass"?
      In open battle Hezbollah would be decimated within seconds against the IDF and they know it.

The US actually has historically averted the "top down" military structure and one thing many militaries the US has served alongside throughout history, and especially during both World Wars and during parts of the Cold War is that the US military seems chaotic and poorly disciplined from the outside. Part of this is from the US's individualistic nature and also because they've always had a strong focus on giving their men more initiative. Even the Soviets said that "American soldiers do not appear to read their own manuals or battle plans, nor do they appear to feel any need to follow them" and "the Americans are nearly impossible to plan against, they appear to practice controlled chaos".
      Israel meanwhile has an extremely well run military that completely averts the pitfall of having an overly rigid and authoritarian military. They focus more on training NCOs and to give their NCOs and lower officers more imitative and leeway in commanding their men, and they also teach their officers to bring up flaws/criticisms in planning so they can point out problems, offer up alternatives, and come up with creative solutions to problems. One thing I've heard from both a friend in the military that served over there and I've read about alot is that foreigners are often surprised by how open the Israeli military is, they're army is alot like many countries air force's in that there's more "equality" among the troops.
      The main flaw among Arab militaries, as mentioned in the video is their authoritarian, paternalistic military structure where the orders have to slowly trickle their way down from the top and the men on the front line arent given any leeway or individual initiative. This is a big problem that bit them in the ass when Saddam invaded Iran: the Iranians allowed their men to respond to problems as them arose and allowed them to do what they thought was best rather then just blindly following orders from Tehran. When communications got cut off the Arabs tended to dig in, hunker down, and wait for new orders while the Iranians responded as the situation changed. This was a big part of why Iraq had better equipment, more and better tanks, more and better air craft, and more soldiers in the beginning but ultimately suffered a strategic defeat.

The autonomous Jewish-Sassanian State the East Romans reconquered from them just a couple of years prior to the 638 CE Arab Invasion of the Levant demonstrates your error of assumption, as well as lack of knowledge of Levantine history.

Isn’t this why the Arab Nationalists/Islamist Supremacists are consistently warring on the Jews? Why the Jewish Communities across the Arab Nationalist/Islamist Supremacist World persecuted, butchered and thieved out their local Jewish Communities after WW1, and the Turks weren’t there to stop the Arab Islamist Supremacists from doing so to all the Indigenous Minority Peoples of the MENA.
      Arabs hadn’t ruled the south Levant since 1077 CE, and had the now extant Arab Nation States not been mandated the Lands they now rule, e.g. Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Kuwait and TransJordan (Jordan) by the League of Nations from former Ottoman Turkish Lands, then maybe we wouldn’t have the disaster the Middle East is in today.

But having studied the history, the Israeli independence war was where Israel truly demonstrated its courage and determination. A fledgling unsupported state with many new immigrants, holding its own and eventually kicking ass against massive forces from 7 Arab countries. Though the video sites the number of infantry being more or less on par (since Israel drafted EVERYBODY), still the Arabs were much better equipped, and surrounded Israel on all sides. The only thing that prevented the Arabs from bringing in even more forces they had, was sheer hubris, they were certain they had far more than enough to defeat the "weak" Israelis. Boy were they in for a surprise.

      It’s all about leadership. Especially in modern Arab armies. Their officers led from the back and the junior officers were politically appointed. The British training had long since been phased out for a nepotism and cronyism system in the officer corps that contributed to their defeat. Politically appointed officers had a lot to lose. They were from rich and influential families and had a comfortable life ahead of them. When it’s 25 to 1 odds you think it’s going to be a cake walk but those Israeli farmers just didn’t see it that way. Their very lives, their families and their whole entire existence was on the line. There was no retreat. It was fire, reload and fire till you’re dead for them. Once the officers started taking losses, they ran. Once they ran the lower ranks said, “Fuck this.” And they ran.

      well, everyone, has their side of their war storytelling but it was believed that the English puppet king in Egypt was supplied with falsy tanks and weapons. That's why the Egyptians were obliterated by the Israelis who were supplied by the US, France and "UK". The main reason that led to his overthrowing. And FYI most of the English documentaries about the arab-israeli wars are told by ISRAELI veterans only so u are just watching their point of view.

      You're under estimating the winds of change and the speed in which they work. What is actually happening, is that Iran is planning to go full steam with its nuclear program and the Arabs suddenly realize that the one and only true ally they can have against Iran, that actually has the weapons and will to counter it, is Israel. Not even the USA can be relied upon to stand it's ground against the Iranians, but Israel has no choice. So the situation on the ground is that we're about to strike peace with many Arab nations and perhaps even form an alliance VS Iran. This is the real and only reason, why suddenly there are relatively few toxic comments here.

    NB Calling the Arabs of Palestine "Palestinians" is historically inaccurate and perpetuates later (1960s) Arab/Soviet linguistic sleight of hand.
    Firstly, most of Mandate Palestine was carved off and renamed "(Trans)Jordan".
    Secondly, while all residents of western Palestine were technically "Palestinians" between 1920 and 1948, only the Palestinian Jews embraced the name, using it in numerous Jewish institutions, e.g. the Palestine Post, Palestine Symphony Orchestra, or the Palestine national football team.

      The Soviets wanted to weaken the British empire in the Middle East so they've thought it'll be better to take the Arabic side.
      The USA has thought the Israelis will lose and had no attention to upset the Arabs with their big piles' oil.
      The whole wide world just stood aside and waited for the new country extermination, except for one country.
      Back then the Czech Republic was part of the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union didn't allow it. But when it found out they close their eyes because they thought the Israelis will fight the British if they'll come back to the Middle East.
      That's not the first time the Czech Republic people helped the Jews.
      In WW2. Jews sent to death camps like Auschwitz. They sent in cattle trains.
      Czechs throw water and food on the trains to help those were inside.

    This is not Palestine this is “mandatory Palestine”. Meaning the ine relating to a specific “mandate”. But it is not Palestine territory.
    Palestine includes the state if Jordan as well and possiboy some part of Syria.
    That is the full Palestine.

    You said the 3D modeling costs a lot more money - yet in looking at this and the "2D" modeling of the Six Day War video, I gather more information from the less-fiddly-and-distracting latter. I would much prefer you take the "cheaper" option of the Six Day War style of video over this one.
