Thank you Sir for giving us a short and useful information about Gaza history! As an Iranian I have a great respect for Jewish history and their service for the world!
I appreciate your honest and reasonable presentation!
Long live peace and prosperity for all people in the world!
Biblical (and Quranic) stories are not history.
Thanking for what? A fabricated news ! Go educate yourself
But there is one big problem and that is that these Ashkenazi-jews are not semetics Jews but are Khazars decentens who converted to judaism in year 750.
Some khazars became Jews from Europe who later created the language jiddisch.
Other khazars converted to Cristianity and some became Muslims.
There where also a group of khazars that did not convert at all, and so they became nomads who spread out in Europe and became the people we call gypsys.
In the 1100 century a big war with Iran and Russia togheter fought against the khazars and the khazars where crushed and the people of Khazaria spread out through Europe and in to Russia.
In 1928 gave Stalin these Ashkenazi-jews aka European-jews who are Khazars an own state in Russia and the land is called Biribidzhan.
The reason where that these khazars was making so much problems in Russia and the best way was to keep them in one place, so thats when the idea came up to solve the matter was to give these khazars their own state.
There you have the true story about these so called European Jews and their history.
Dont believe this facts? Please look this information and se the facts on this matter.
A small detail to add-the Greeks gave the name Philistia from which the Romans adopted. Coincidentally enough, it is believed that the Philistines were outside raiders (part of the infamous Sea Peoples) who conquered settled in the region approximately shortly after the Israelites. Also coincidentally, they appear to have been Greeks, or some sort of confederation of mixed people led by Greeks due to their cultural and militaristic remnants. The Bronze Age collapse was evidently very tumultuous.
This is what I had learned in part of my studies long time. Plus they were in naval battles with Egypt and lost so then they settle in part of Gaza.
For more check out Eric Cline's great lectures (and book!) on the Bronze Age Collapse.
Though the current Philistines are not the what the Philistines were.
@@yohaneschristianp Yeah well, Philistine culture completely disappeared by the time Persia conquered the region, there are no current Philistines
@@westenicho then i guess there actually is no coincidental nature to your anecdote, making it irrelevant to current context
Rabbi,
You skipped over the Sykes Picot agreement. Why?
It was the British who set these two groups against each other.
Thank you so much Dr. Abrahmson for explaining this history in a rational way. I am completely shocked how many young people here in the United States who know nothing of the history our out in the streets screaming & blaming Israel, threatening anyone with a different perspective to the point Jewish students don't even feel safe going to school. The violence & antisemitism being displayed is truly appalling!!
Don't be shocked. Palestinian propaganda has been taught in our public schools for decades. Nobody dies anything about it.
I got accused of being a white man with an Asian fetish on Twitter yesterday, because I pushed back on the ridiculous claim from radical leftists comparing Israel to Nazi Germany. As per horseshoe theory and reading through their rhetoric it’s obvious that they are closer to the Nazis than Israelites will ever be. You also have to be antisemitic to be a Nazi. So their comparison makes zero sense.
We are to turn the other cheek love our neighbors and enemies. The blockade in Gaza with so bad. For the past 16 years, the people were not even allowed to have instinct. Coffee or coriander or basic foods. Dirty water. Poverty. This breeds extremism. We can't be surprised. Also thousands died in protests over the past twenty years and they have been ignored Many people think there's no other way than extremism to get the world's attention, which obviously it has worked for them..

Grossly correct when speaking in ancient times, the talk of the presenter becomes partial and inaccurate when approaching the present. When talking about the XX century is sheer political propaganda. For example, the myth, repeated ad nauseam, that the Arabs countries around Palestine declared war and attacked first.... First the Zionists have already been waging an undeclared war on Palestinians for many months, exterminating almost all the Palestinians leadership, by 15 may 1948, secondly, King Abdallah had had secret meetings with the Zionists leaders, including Golda Meir, where they decided to divided up Palestine among them. At the end Egypt took Gaza, Jordan the West Bank and Israel the rest of Palestine, and Palestinians went to refugee camps.
Another example, saying that Arabs fled the conflict, is a way of implicitly hiding the fact that Palestinians were fleeing Haganah and the other Israeli paramilitary units which were terrorizing them rather than waging a war against the ineffective Arab League.
The final phrases are typical. Israel values its populations I want its kidnapped citizens back while Hamas only worship death and destruction instead to work for prosperity.
There you are! I sub'd to you in 2020 when I needed some spirtual guidance.. you havent pop up on my algorithm again, and I thought we got lost. My family and I were discussing recent events and I was hoping I could refer to your work, so I am blessed by your good timing, Sr. Abramson. Best wishes to you and yours from your friends in Texas
During a travel in Israël, I met a guy who has a shop in Ako. He is of Palestinian origin. I asked him how his family were not expelled. He told me that his grand father was legaly domiciled in Ako in 1947, under the British mandate. He was legally the owner of his house. The man told me that most of the Palestinians were the owners of their houses, but never wanted to register their address, this is how they lost everything in 1948.
Can someone tell me more about the reasons of not being domiciled chosen by Palestinians ??

In the (old testament torah) not babylonian tradition satanic talmund)
David actualy made a pact with Achish one of the 5 rulers of philistine
1 Samuel 27 OLD TESTAMANT TORAH
1And David said in his heart, I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul: there is nothing better for me than that I should speedily escape into the land of the Philistines; and Saul shall despair of me, to seek me any more in any coast of Israel: so shall I escape out of his hand.
2And David arose, and he passed over with the six hundred men that were with him unto Achish, the son of Maoch, king of Gath.
3And David dwelt with Achish at Gath, he and his men, every man with his household, even David with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the Carmelitess, Nabal's wife.
4And it was told Saul that David was fled to Gath: and he sought no more again for him.
5And David said unto Achish, If I have now found grace in thine eyes, let them give me a place in some town in the country, that I may dwell there: for why should thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee?
6Then Achish gave him Ziklag that day: wherefore Ziklag pertaineth unto the kings of Judah unto this day.
7And the time that David dwelt in the country of the Philistines was a full year and four months.
8And David and his men went up, and invaded the Geshurites, and the Gezrites, and the Amalekites: for those nations were of old the inhabitants of the land, as thou goest to Shur, even unto the land of Egypt.
9And David smote the land, and left neither man nor woman alive, and took away the sheep, and the oxen, and the asses, and the camels, and the apparel, and returned, and came to Achish.
10And Achish said, Whither have ye made a road to day? And David said, Against the south of Judah, and against the south of the Jerahmeelites, and against the south of the Kenites.
11And David saved neither man nor woman alive, to bring tidings to Gath, saying, Lest they should tell on us, saying, So did David, and so will be his manner all the while he dwelleth in the country of the Philistines.
12And Achish believed David, saying, He hath made his people Israel utterly to abhor him; therefore he shall be my servant for ever.
PLEASE READ THIS TO BE INFORMED ON WHAT IS REALY GOING ON:
Let people every one live in peace and Jews many of them just want to live life in the old homeland and the land it self overthere is in many cases just like south africa and other place where some rule of westerns actualy is kind of a blessing provides development just sad they cant share the good stuff because of hate and domination. But saying all that!!! prophecy is importent here oke everything that wil happen according to what is writen in the bible
and eventhough the Nation Israel is now not Yet the true comming together of the people by Shiloh who is God Yeshua Messiah.
Allot of ignorent people believe that Israel now is that coming together but allot of Jews know that when they read the Bible even the Torah it say's that Israel the people wil be gathered together by God Himself in Jerusalem so real Christians and real jews know this there are just to many people in ignorence but the nation Israel now is Led by a goverment just like many Goverments in the world western or arab asian does not matter that have deep sick traits of satan in it and dark agenda's to bring the world into chaos and then give the world over to the anti-Christ who wil come with false peace false one world religion and a false one world order, Imagen people in peace all religions together prosperity and Yet the whole this wil be wrong in the eye's of God because it is sick and false and Jesus Yeshua the Son of the Father wil rule in Jerusalem over the whole world not God rejecting sinfull mankind and not satan and so Jesus wil come and make sure that wont happen so that people do not dam themselfs and the whole of creation forever. The Lord wants to save people's souls and these sick men in charge and people in general want to save their body's and lust's that's why we need Jesus and to repent of our sins and He is faithfull and has power in heaven over hell and earth to give you the Spirit of God to grab your soul out of this crazy drowning in lies sick world that is actualy trying to live without the rule of God forever its sick God gave us life He knows what is best for us we dont realy know we think we know but we dont, satan can do one sick trick in the east and the whole world can fall in ww3 and destruction if God allows it.
we have been given Christ and His name is Jesus Yeshua meaning salvation and:
Acts 4:12
King James Version
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Matthew 5
King James Version
5 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
Matthew 4:16-17
King James Version
16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.
17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
The Kingdom of God is coming dispite what our perception are and you can only get right with The Father and recieve mercy if you lett Christ help you to recieve the Spirit and no longer be a enemy of God we are all born enemys of God.
Shalom peace much love in truth unto eternal life.

Beautiful. I thoroughly enjoyed your documentary, Mr. Abramson. My first instinct about this conflict was to pray for peace. Humanity has its good side and its bad side.

Biblical (and Quranic) stories are not History.
For example: Show me the powerful King Solomon in the real history of the region.
@@doyouknoworjustbelieve6694 He doesn't only mention the Bible at all.. He mentioned Egyptian history and the Philistine arrival in the 12th century BCE. And also brings material from after the Biblical period. He only uses the Biblical stories to flesh out periods that are historically and archaeologically established fact.
To be fair though, Egypt blocking Gaza off in 1948, establishing them as eternal refugees, giving them "All Palestine" passports and beginning the process of brainwashing them to generations of shahid-kamikaze behavior.. didn't help either.
@@knnmr2009
First of all, as a Rabbi, his entire belief system is based on Biblical stories.
Secondly, he does quote the Bible at the beginning of this video.
Thirdly, do you have any problem with someone quoting repeated passages from a holy book?
Thank you so much, Dr. Abramson, for this clear and concise synopsis of the history of this very troubled part of the world. Your video provides information that is very helpful for so many of us who seek to better understand the relationship between the people of Israel and Gaza.

Nice overview of Israeli-Palestine relations. Good perspective from the Israeli side. I don’t want to hear a raving hostile perspective from a hater, rather I would like to hear the Palestinian side from as rational viewpoint as you give. The everyday people in Gaza and Israel are suffering. Those making political decisions are making the people suffer. What is the Palestine rationale besides hatred?

As to "cherry picking", all arguments curate facts. All we can do is go to learned sources, of various methodologies, and historiographies to try to gain wisdom to help us to (hopefully) act wisely. I listen, including to things that make me uncomfortable. But I listen only to calm, deeply knowledgeable sources, from all "sides".
@@dudleybarker2273 my intention is not to offend, but this is disrespectful of you. He has a PhD in Jewish history.

I suggest evaluating his points as I believe he'll be willing to do that if you asked him.

Joshua 13:1-7
Now Joshua was old and well along in years, and the LORD said to him, “You are old and well along in years, but very much of the land remains to be possessed.

Be sure to divide it by lot as an inheritance to Israel, as I have commanded you. [7] Now therefore divide this land as an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh.”
The point is that who is the expert on deciding who is the OFFSPRING TODAY?
Very very good short history from a reliable source. Thank you for helping us understand a bit more about the history of Gaza & Israel!
The land is Canaan that God promised to Abraham and Israel. Genesis 12:7 and 24:7 Ezekiel 37 tells how the land is to be divided. 1920 BC before there were any arabs.

You should do a video on the history and the origins of Hamas. I find that oftentimes, the history of gaza and Hamas are heavily tinted with peoples personal opinions based of their social conditioning. I learned when i was younger that it was originally a local socio-political party/gang that was later denounced as a terrorist organization. Now, many people treat all of gaza as if it 100% Hamas which is kinda disingenuous to the discussion. Everybody in souther Italy has at least one family member in the mafia (even if they dont want to admit it) but that doesn’t mean that all southern Italians are gang members. It also doesn’t mean that all of southern Italy needs to be destroyed to eradicated the mafia which easily has much more economic pull and political influence than an organization as small as Hamas, yet people still call it a gang or organized crime ring and not a terrorist organization.
Did R Yisroel Najara compose Koh Ribbon when he was living in Gaza?

It’s interesting how all these people who have suddenly found a voice to speak up against Israel are silent when civilians are being killed in other conflicts…
@@skyrizione8811 and what about the ongoing Uyghur genocide?

The reason for the whole world having a critical opinion on Israel (even Vladimir Putin - an international war criminal - has recently voiced an opinion on the matter…) has nothing to do with civilian suffering and everything to do with antisemitism.

Need a video on Amalek and the lesson of King Shaul.
Wonderfully explained. It was America who trained Fatah in Sinai and sent them into Gaza to rebel, after which Hamas punished them and threw them out. This was when Hamas were in power. Condoleeza Rice describe this in her autobiography. American intervention in this regard has been a catastrophy. Fatah presence in Gaza could maybe have been a good thing to curb Hamas.
A very informative and useful talk Mr. Abramson....concise and very easy to understand...thank you!
Glad it was helpful
it's concise and easy to understand because it is one sided and mostly false.
Thank you for such an informed explanation of Gaza's history. I really enjoy the videos you give about Jewish history. Just a couple of comments: When I was living in England before the 67 war, I remember that the Syrians were frequently shooting down at Israeli farmers from the Golan Heights, so it's understandable that Israel wants to keep that land. Also, just before the war, around May 1967, the Egyptian President Gamal Abdul Nasser did 2 things to begin the hostilities: He called the UN Secretary General and told him to remove the peace keeping troops on the border between Egypt and Israel because they would be killed in the war, so the troops were removed. The other action he took before the war was to block the Gulf of Aqaba so there was no access to Eilat in Israel. This means that Israel did not preemptively strike Egypt.
Thank you for that clarification
Thank you Dr. Abramson, for ensuring that we, as your students, are armed with knowledge that helps us to better understand the world and events that we see. You are such a blessing.

Thank you for a thoughtful lesson - appreciate your balanced presentation. 🙏
Glad it was helpful!
Balanced?!
This is a an unbalanced, Zionist version of things. It ignores the British involvement to create the state of Israel, the US support to maintain the state, constant taking of the land from Palestinian, and the systematic genocide of Palestinians. This a disgusting ignorance of Palestinian rights as a human being.
I hope Christians who feel some sort of sympathy with the state of Israel are listening how he calls the coming of Jesus, "common Error". Christian preachers get money from the state of Israel or its supporters to create support for an occupying state that has systematically been killing Palestinian Christians and Muslims and non-believers.
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos.
Oh snap, this video has been the most interesting and educational video I’ve seen on this topic. Thank you so much, I learned a lot
Very nice overview. Not too political. As an outsider, I agree that the people of Gaza have to use their energy on building and not destroying once they can get out from under Hamas.
So very true Henry Abramson. I pray a lot for the Jewish people living in Israel now. May god be with them!
Do you also pray for the Palestinians? I think they could use the help of some deity as well. Surely God doesn't think that the children of Jews deserve life and happiness while other children deserve suffering and bloodshed. Or does he?
@KenCunkle your answer rests in Eccleciastes 12:13. The Torah is for all mankind.
@yaakovisaacs The Holy Torah is the first book (guidelines) by God/Allah. Then he sent Jabur. After that, when God saw people facing new issues, then comes Enjel (Bible). After the holy Bible, Al-Quran comes which is the final edition by God's/Allah's guidelines. The theory is very simple, over the time we need guidance and thats what this 4 holy books all about. As a muslim, we believe on this. We believe moses, ibrahim/abraham, jesus (isa), mohammed all are massiha (messenger). We all believe in one god. So moral of the story is, we are cousins. But we fighting with each other. It just like judaism is 1966 ford mustang, Christianity is 1999 ford mustang and islam is 2022 ford mustang. So the company is same which is God/ yahweh/Allah and and this three models are made according to the time, technologies availability, fixing the errors and keep up with the human interest and good deeds.
I hope we all understand this and live together and worship our one god, same god and stop fighting and hatred. I also believe as we muslims needs to sharpen our brain bit more with islamic knowledge, be more patience, forgiveness, love, respect as our prophet said, you win a heart of non-believer (doesn't believe in Al quran) with love, respect and knowledge. Not war. War is only and only permitted in islam if we face our life threats other than that, peaceful settlement is ordered by Allah, God, Yahweh.

@@ashiqurrahman6984You're correct 💯 👍🙏❤️
What you didn't tell us is,is it included in the land as defined by G-d to Avram, and later confirmed to Joshua?
Hello Mr. Abramson, how can the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians be solved, do you have an opinion. What does Judaism say about solving such a conflict. Is it conceivable that all people in the areas between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean become a nation. Regardless of their religion or ethnic background. Is that acceptable in Judaism? For example, everyone receives an Israeli passport and all people in the country have the same rights and obligations. Or is that not acceptable. If not, what do you think of a two-state solution. With all the statutes of a sovereign state.
Thanks Prof. shared with my synagogue in Puerto Rico.
Many thanks Dr Abramson. Precise and comprehensive.
Glad it was helpful!
Let's do that all nations create their own history by geassing and try to dispart the Earth
Thanks for the video. Is the first Intifada a Palestinian expression "of digust at the lack of progress that they have made towards statehood"?
Ilan Pappe would lay this so differently
Thank you very much for sharing Dr. Abramson.🙏🙏

Thank you. I will share this to inform others of the history you have shared.
It's worth noting that even when Roman maps had the name "Judaea" large, to signify it was an independent state affiliated with Rome, after the bar kochba revolt when the Romans finally decided to eliminate the Jewish state and fully get rid of the government there, that's when maps made the word "Judaea" smaller and only cover the west bank and some land.
Then "Syria" on the Roman maps was changed to stretch all the way over from Syrian land all the way to the Philistine coast, then the big letters to show the name of the region were "Syria-Palaestina", which I think may not have even been intended to mock Jews but was rather to show that region of the map spanned from Syria and to the Philistine coast, which was the furtherest corner of Israel from Syria.
Because if the Romans really wanted to mock the Jews, they wouldn't still have the word "Judaea" on their maps in smaller letters to show where Judaea is located. People don't often think about this and many don't even know.
Thank you Mr. Abramson for sharing those knowledge! Fantastic!
Thank you so much for this, I have some links I've been sharing for a while about the ancient history of Jews in Gaza (and we have the archaeological finds as well) and the ancient synagogues of the Golan Heights, showing it has always been Jewish, unlike the enemies of Israel accusations. A good vid is always more effective in terms of practicality in our modern days than written texts.
By the way, there are still Crypto-Jews still living in Gaza, as Tsvi Misinai vids of over a decade ago have shown, they had to have their faces blurred for obvious reasons of preserving their physical integrity.
Both peoples - Jews and Palestinians - are related. Palestinians are just the non-exiled descendants, who, over time, became Christian, and then Muslim.

thank u mr. Abram , this is a very informative presentation ...although i knew the most of its new History ,but i liked how the old history showed us the strange relation between the Israeli and the Palestinians ...the numbers and dates were very clear ...thank u , i would very much like to know the events and the situation between the 12-13 century due to the crusaders reason and purpose for coming to Palastine or whatever it was called at that time !?!
Well explained after a long search for information. Thank you very much. Peace.
This was quite a generous presentation. Especially for acknowledging the existence of the Philistines. I need to understand who they are today and the origins of the other ethnic groups currently co-existing in this area. Thank you for this quick historic overview. Interested, Gentile observer chiming in.
@johnbeaubien8826 Important also to notice that the Arabs who currently live in many parts of Israel (those who call themselves Palestinians) have no kinship relationship with the Philistines of antiquity. It seems that they use the term to make the world believe that they come from the Philistines and would have some right to occupy that land, which is an error.
@@MultiSUPERLATIVO 1. that's not true since genetic studies shows similarities between modern palestinians and ancient levantine populations 2. even if, what then? Does that mean that a jewish convert shouldnt be allowed in Israel because he/she cannot prove kinship to ancient kind david?!
@@meownyan3925 Historians and archaeologists say that when Hadrian created the name Palestine (Philistine), these people had already been extinct for a long time. An extinction suggests complete disappearance. Which leads us to believe that no one is left. What Emperor Hadrian did was absurd. He gave that region the name of a people that no longer existed. You have mentioned that "Does that mean that a jewish convert shouldnt be allowed in Israel because he/she cannot prove kinship to ancient kind david?!". When someone accepts the Jewish faith and converts, he/she becomes a Jew. And this was due to the acceptance of a faith. In the case of the Arabs, what do they have to do with the Philistines to be called "Philistines" (Palestinians)?
@@meownyan3925 The Philistines were not an ancient Levantine population. They were Greek invaders.
What genetic studies do show is that BOTH the Palestinians and Jews are related to each other, and both are derived from predominantly ancient Levantine stock with a bit of Indo-European admixture.
@@MultiSUPERLATIVOTrue point. These people that adopt this name for themselves are ethnically many different people; and, not Philistines, whatsoever. They are not even all arabs, as some use that designation. Arabs, Syrians, Egyptians, and many others.
Thank you for connecting the Old Testament to the present time, Dr. Abrahamson. It's purely historical and simply explained. I thank God for bringing you to us in CZcams. Shalom from the Philippines.
Where did you got the name Israel from what were they before tje time of Jacob.
Dear Henry,
Are humans inherently migratory, and therefore remaining entrenched in one area can lead to unconscious programming that, when made explicit, can lead to disastrous endeavours?
Thank you Mister. Abramson for teaching us in very professional, and understanding way ! I bless you and your family too ! Very understanding lesson! May God bless you and keep all of Jewish people and your family for ever !
May you be blessed as well
Many years ago I would have been out there with the other leftists, marching for a 'Free Palestine' and so on - whatever that would look like, God only knows!
But then I met someone who actively challenged me enough to look into the history properly -- and so I went down a long and winding rabbithole, while trying to remain as neutral as I could, and here I am.
My views have changed a lot -- I support Israel and its right to exist, I understand the history of Zionism and why it is necessary, and no longer buy into any of that nonsense about settler colonialism or apartheid.
This doesn't mean I support Netanyahu or Likud, and I don't think Israel is above criticism, but I am no longer misled or blindly following the herd.
Also, I am not Jewish, I have no skin in this game.
Thank you for your voice and your perspective -- very informative.
Good for you to educate yourself! Thank you for being honest and sharing your story. It’s always difficult to admit you were wrong and to change your beliefs, one has to care, be genuine and be an adult to do that.
Your mannerisms and way of speaking remind me of Rabbi Taff with who I converted to Judaism. I appreciate your teaching and hope for a day when Hamas no longer wants to kill everyone. Until that day comes, we Jews have to defend ourselves and our countries from attack.
How do reconcile the multiple accounts in Haaretz and elsewhere that Netanyahu has supported Hamas for years?
I am now understanding issues about the Jewish death toll during the period described in this video. Was there a similar or larger Palestinian death toll? Why was there an increase in Gaza population? was that because palestinians; Muslims, Christian and Atheists were ethnically cleansed from other parts of the new Jewish state? Is prosperity through access to work in isreal the panacea for lack of nationhood, return of seized land and freedom? can all these aspirations can all be archived or there has to be a trade off? What is the standard baseline for behaviour across this period you have described ie do not kill non-combatants and would following this baseline have changed outcomes (i know that is speculative)? Am I asking the wrong type of questions? I am curious. Edit: just read that gaza has over 6 refugee camps why? "Refugee camps are temporary facilities built to provide immediate protection and assistance to people who have been forced to flee their homes due to war, persecution or violence". who are they fleeing from and what violence I am confused. how long have they been there and why. when can they return to where they are running from. are there other palestinian refugee camps elsewere and why? I am looking forward to your next vid this is great stuff and you are providing good discussion material that might lead to solutions to the problems that you have identified: 1, lack of access to israel for jobs and prosperity of Gaza . 2, solving the violence against the State of and people Isreal by palestinians from gaza, 3. closing the refugee camps etc as we discuss this history i am sure we will arrive at some proposals for peace and prosperity this is much appreciated.
Excellent presentation, as always. Many thanks.
Thank you
I hope that this conflict don’t last long and that the peace come back to your folks. You are on my prays 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
alright, interesting information, Gaza is under Israel frankly speaking and looked like going well in the region, but what does it mean labor permits for Gaza to work in Israel? does it mean in Israel you need to get a special license to work in the same country?
Israel disengaged from Gaza in 2005. The people living there are not Israeli citizens. They need work permits just like any foreigner needs one to work in a different country (like me, a Canadian, working in the United States, for example).
Thank you for this history. Can you talk about the energy resources found in Gaza and off the coast of Gaza, which Chevron has been developing for the last few years.
Thank you Dr Abramson for the thoughtful history lesson.
he is a cold-blooded liar.

Could you pinpoint his lies ?

Excellent Synopsis...I greatly enjoy your comprehensive observations and teaching style ...I was glued to every paragraph.
I like it when ever you have opportunity to crack a little joke or humorous anecdote .
Glad you found the video helpful.
I think you glossed over why the Palistinians where herded into Gaza during the war and not allowed to return to their homes. Winning land in a war should not mean ethnic cleansing. But its good to listen to everybody to learn as much as possible.
Thank you for this explanation. I am sharing!
What time you off?
Didn’t the Hittites have a hand in the mix at one point?
You dissected the issue very well. People should come and learn about the origin of this conflict here.
To go farther back where the conflict began was way back to the ⛺⛺ ⛺ tents of Abraham Between the child of promise to receive God's favor and God's Covenant which is Isaac then we have Ishmael God promised to make of him a great nation and his descendants would be like the sand of the sea and stars of the sky. Ishmael was not to be apart of the Blessed Covenant never the less he was blessed with an extreme amount of wealth and princes. It's very interesting how God said Ishmael would be A Wild Donkey 🐴🐎 of a man and his hands will be against everyone and everyones hands against him. So basically God's telling Us the descendants of Ishmael will be in constant Conflict/War/Hatred against his half brothers descendants of Isaac and everyone who will not convert to Islam.We see it as plain as day for over 1,400 years with the Muslims. I will say this... In Islam there are No such a thing as a "Terrorist" it's just Islam and Muslims striving in the way of their Evil False god Allah. I can see straight through their Allah and know that Satan is hiding behind the mask 🎭 and claiming to be The One and Only True God through the title of Allah.
Genesis 12:7 and 24:7 Ezekiel 37
Thank you for sharing your wisdom and knowledge with us Dr. Abramson. I have struggled to gain my bearings of the geo-politics of Israel anciently and in modern times. You've given much insight and clarity and expanded the small dots I had connected. Do the Palestinians recognize themselves as descendants of the ancient Philistines? I thought they were recognizable by their physical stature, a people of giants?
Do you think the David Accords are evidence of certain prophecies of Isaiah around Egypt helping Israel being fulfilled? Or do you think this event served as a foreshadowing of things to come? (I hope I've understood Isaiah correctly!)
The Philistines don't have nothing to do with the Palestinians. The Philistines were not Arabes, they were of Greek origin, more specifically from Creta. The Philistines disappeared following the conquest of the Levant by the Babylonean King Nebuchadzzenar II.
Great video and really informative. Thank you so much

This was fascinating, thanks. Do you know if Zephaniah 2:4 has been fulfilled yet “Gaza will be abandoned “? I wonder if it is about to happen

Thank you for that wonderful history in brief. I’ve been looking for something truthful to send to people who know nothing of the history of the region. I’m grateful to the israelis for the chance to go on religious pilgrimage twice. It is holy ground. If not for the state Israel, peaceful pilgrimage would not be possible. My heart mourns for the victims of the horrific assaults Saturday. The lack of sufficient outrage, threats to Jewish people around the world, and accommodation of public celebrations in major cities, i attribute to racism in people’s hearts. There can be no excuse for what has happened. Israel seems like a battered woman, who just wants him to stop. She tries, she forgives. Finally, he does the unforgivable. She has to save herself and her children. I pray this will be brief and decisive, and everyone will see the folly of racism and war. We’ll beat our swords into plowshares. My prayers are with the Jewish people worldwide.
The Israelies are NOT Israelites, the Jewish are NOT Judah, the semites are NOT the children of SHEM, and sub Saharan Africa that very large land full of resources is the Promised Land
Thank you sir for explaining the historic background of Gaza. I have some doubts. These people whether we call them Palestinians or Philistians were originally there. Most probably they must have been Jews before and converted to Islam by Ottoman Turks. When Jews emigrated to present Israel, these people were ordinary farmers. When Israel was formed it is not Palestinians who fought the war against the new nation It is other arab countries. The present attrocity against Israelis is unforgivable. Why should Israel give jobs to Gazans but Israel should give them full freedom to conduct their affairs like shipping and other things required for the development. It should be like a new nation. As long as they don't have much contact with Israel things should be better

@@EstherYael1984 Thank you. Just hadn't seen it before.
I would like to point out one more thing about the UN partition plan. The Arabs gained independence over the countries of Jordan, Syria and Lebanon - and it certainly deserves to be so. And the small piece of land we call Israel, was divided it into more parts. They gave the Jews very little territory. In a broad picture of the regional map, you can see the full picture and those who received small areas were actually the Jews. If you look only at the map of Israel, it can appear that the Arabs received very little territory - but this is only a partial picture.
Thank you, Mr Abramson , short and informative

I thank you so much for this video. It must have been very hard to make, especially for someone who, even as a child, experienced such horrible hate essentially just for being born.
I know there is nothing whatsoever I can do to help, so I'm offer these mere words that you are seen and valued and appreciated for what you do.
I don't believe there is nothing you can do to help.
Even outside the Middle East it's important people speak up in support of Israel's right to exist and denounce acts of terrorism like we saw a few days ago. The history of Israel and Gaza is complicated but nothing justifies the rape and murder of hundreds of young people enjoying a music festival.
Here in the UK we had a thoroughly obnoxious politician saying the attacks were not terrorism. Quite what her definition of terrorism is, I have no idea, but people everywhere need to speak out against anyone expressing views like that and hold them to account.
@@joshuarosen6242 this has been hard for me in the past. Wars have so much ugliness and evil in them that I can lose control and merely add fuel to the fire of hate rather than calmly denouncing the aggressors.
I will consider your words. Perhaps there is a better balance than what I have yet found.

You would think that Egypt would embrace Gaza because of similar religious backgrounds, but it seems the Gazan mindset is too extreme even for the Egyptians.
There is a saying: ""Why do you see the speck in your neighbor's eye, but do not notice the log in your own eye? ". I think that selfishness is the cause of evil.
