  3. This show made me so happy!!! I absolutely support Gazans being given the CHOICE to leave. It's inhumane to keep them in a war zone. It's also inhumane to have perpetuated their refugee status for generations, as leverage against Israel. I don't want corrupt Egyptian border police making money from smuggling people illegally into Sinai, as happens now. I stand with Israel... 🙏✡💙

  4.  @TheIsraelGuys : Exactly. I was close by in Dahab, Sinai, on October 7 and felt sick to my stomach when I heard what my Egyptian friends and acquaintances had to say. They all told me “the attack was great, Hamas are our Muslim brothers, we hate Israel”. That evening a man handed around sweet pastries in my guesthouse communal kitchen. I was in a state of shock. These Egyptian business workers are the same people who smile at Israeli tourists, hoping they will spend money with them. I’m much more careful with what I say here in Dahab these days. Israel absolutely must extend sovereignty over Judea and Samaria and offer ‘residence status’ to those Arabs who are not hostile. That’s the only chance their children will have for a life of peace, security and opportunities…🙏💙🇮🇱

  5. Nakba Day is disastrous for the Arabs, not for the Jews. It emphasises their sense of #victimhood, which keeps them stuck in shame. It doesn't allow them to thrive in the way that Israelis have thrived. It's yet another 'own goal'. Keep up your wonderful job of educating the public, Israel Guys...🙏

  11. My New Zealand grandfather gave his life fighting the Ottoman Turks in Palestine in WWI. Sadly, he succumbed to malaria only days before the Ottomans surrendered in November 1918. He’s buried in the British Military Cemetery near Jerusalem. I’m very proud that he played his part in liberating all of the Ottoman Empire lands for the occupants, and I’m very happy that it allowed the indigenous Jewish people to reconstitute their ancestral homeland of Israel…🙏

  14. For those who don't put so much credibility on God promising the land of Israel to the Jewish people, you need to remember that the Jews were formally acknowledged as #indigenous to that land and granted the right to reconstitute their ancestral home by a unanimous vote of the League of Nations (predecessor to the UN) in 1922. This came after the defeat of the Ottoman Empire in 1918. From the same defeat of the Ottoman Empire, the Arab occupants of the Middle East were granted 99% of the land. Israel is less than 1% of that Middle East land, and the Jewish people share it with 21% Arab Israeli citizens who have #equal rights.

  15. I wholeheartedly support new settlements being built in Area C...🙏

  16. I’m with Itamar Ben Gvir on this! Don’t pander to a group of people who stage a provocation, then cry #victim and #oppressed. They’ll want more privileges next year🙄. I read they even had free shuttle buses and blocked-off streets to get easy access to the Temple Mount this year. Don’t show weakness. Show strength. Thanks, The Israel Guys...🙏

  17. Finally, the IDF is in Rafah!!! Please hold this border for some years to come. Stop all corruption from the Egyptian side so no more weapons can come in, and Hamas cannot get out. And give Exit Permits to those Arabs in Gaza who want to leave, including the 50,000 people who have dual Palestinian-Egyptian citizenship…🙏🇮🇱💙

  26. This new format is great, where you educate people about one topic, so thank you! 🙏 This following comment was made on a YouTube video by Ben Shapiro in June 2021 during the Gaza-Israel crisis. I thought it was very informative to hear from someone who actually lives in Gaza: “I'm a 31 year old Palestinian and have been living in Gaza for all my life. We're so scared right now and we want this to be over but a lot us (secretly, we can't say publicly) actually know Israel is in the right (yes, a lot of us here know Israel is not the one waging war). When we voted for Hamas more than 15 years ago, we thought they would let us have regular elections and turn this area into an amazing, democratic Palestinian land. But they regularly pay us massive money to rally on the streets and to tell the media Israel is the agressor and we badly need the money so we accept. Hamas officials told us that we have to stay in our work buildings when the Israel army warns us to leave before they bomb the buildings, if we don't Hamas will jail our families. We risk not moving in the hope that we don't get hurt so our families don't get jailed. We also get paid to hold fake funerals where we carry 'killed' children on stretchers in the streets (they're just pretending to be dead). What I'm trying to say is that what you see on the media is Hamas making us look like war victims, but really we are victims of Hamas who will do what Hamas says because of our desperation for money. We don't get aid even though apparently most countries say they give aid. We use to live peacefully with the Israeli's before Hamas controlled us and now we rely on Hamas to survive. Some of us have tried to escape to Israel but Hamas will also kill our family if they find out. We pray that one day Hamas will stop using all they money for rockets and terrorists and use its money for us, to build us parks and schools and hospitals and give us food. Right now I pray for the violence to stop.”

  27. Thanks Justin. I’m Australian and I’m very unhappy with our new government’s statement on Jerusalem. I believe that Jerusalem is the eternal capital of Israel and nothing will ever change this...🙏

  28. ⁠ @vincentlussier8264 : In WWI the Arabs of Palestine fought with the Ottoman Turks against the Allied Powers. The Allies DEFEATED the German-Ottoman alliance in 1918 and the Ottoman Middle East land was ceded to the British, French, etc. Losers of a war that they started do NOT get to choose who ends up with what land. The #indigenous Jews fought with the British in the Palestine Campaign and in return were granted the right to reconstitute their ancestral home, so long as they gave equal rights and freedom of worship to the land’s current occupants. Today two million Arabs are equal citizens with Jews and other minorities such as the Druze, Circassians, and Arab Christians in Israel. Their families accepted life in the Jewish state in 1948. They made a good choice…🙏🇮🇱💙

  29.  @maracohen5930 : Exactly! And they keep making bad decisions.

  30. It's great that you are studying the Qur'an. I hope you've checked out Qur'an 2:191 which says "Kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from where they drove you out, as Fitnah is more severe than killing." This is understood by many Believers to mean that once the Muslims have invaded, conquered and declared land sacred to Islam, then it has to remain that way. So of course the 'Palestinians' want ALL of the land back 'from the river to the sea', without the indigenous Jewish people. This is based on the Islamic scriptures. I'd be interested to hear your perspective on this.

  35. Thank you so much for explaining about the ‘dress code’ for visiting religious sites, including the Western Wall and The Vatican. It makes perfect sense to me. Just tuck your religious symbols inside your outer garments during your visit, or leave them at home, even if you are a religious leader.

  36. Another great show, thank you!!! It's wonderful to see Israel increasing its ranking up from ninth to fourth in the World Happiness Report. And that happened despite the political turmoil and wave of jihad violence...💙

  39. Israel should definitely work towards extending sovereignty over Judea and Samaria. That would provide stability and economic growth for the Israeli Jews and Palestinian Arabs who currently live there. But first a way must be found for the Palestinian Arabs to be given citizenship of an Arab country, or a developed country. Then could then apply for Israeli residence visas which would give them all rights except national voting rights, and Israel would have the legal right to deport them if they still act in a hostile manner towards the Jewish people.

  40. I’m very happy to read that Australia boycotted the ridiculous UN ‘Nakba Day’. Did my birth country New Zealand attend or boycott? I stand with Israel…💙🇮🇱🙏

  41. Thanks for talking about the ridiculousness of UNRWA. Keep up the great work, Israel Guys!!!

  42. I just watched a video that I found interesting. It talks about a power struggle between Hamas/Islamic Jihad (supported by Al Jazeera-Abu Akleh) and the PA's Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade. The video is on Vimeo, "Lies and Tears - A counter investigation into the death of Shireen Abu Akleh" by Pierre Rehov.

  43. That’s just silly. Our Creator-God has given humans ‘free will’ on our planet. The Jewish people need to sort out the land-use laws themselves. I have faith in them...🙏

  45. Well done Jewish Federation!!! Let's try and make this happen for The Israel Guys too...🙏

  46. I feel a bit bad for that leftist lady at the beginning of the video, the one who was dumped on the side of the road by Arabs who then stole her car, but I guess there was a lesson in that for her? Thank you and stay strong, Israel Guys... 🙏🇮🇱💙

  47.  @ChannelMath : I'm absolutely not in favour of the Arabs having a state next to Israel. The Arabs already have Jordan, and 22 other Arab countries, most of which are failing if they are not rich in natural resources. I support #OneJewishState from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea (excluding Gaza for the moment). Those Arabs who live in Judea and Samaria should be offered "permanent residence status" by Israel, which would give them equal CIVIL rights, but not national voting rights. Their children should have a pathway to full Israeli citizenship if they can pledge allegiance to the Jewish state of Israel (like the Druze of the Golan Heights, and Arabs of East Jerusalem). Those Arabs who reject Israeli residence status should be assisted to resettle in another country.

  48.  @Mark-fo3if : I support your statement: "It really doesn’t matter what you call the region now but only that all people’s are equal." It reminds me that 20% of Israeli citizens TODAY are Arab Muslims and they have #equal rights under the law with Jews. Arab Israelis sit in the Knesset, they serve in the security services, the judiciary, and they work in the highest levels of banking, education, health, and technology, etc. Those 20% are from Arab families who lived in the British Mandate of Palestine and who chose to ACCEPT Jewish rule in 1948. I believe they are the lucky ones. Of course some are still hostile to living as equals with Jews (they prefer to see the Jews as 'dhimmis') and they cause trouble. But with time and good education, not indoctrination from Islamists, they will realise they have better lives in Israel than in any Arab country or under Hamas or the PA.

  49.  @talerez83  It’s my pleasure to support Israel. And I’m really happy to see The Israel Guys doing such a great job of educating people so we can all be better informed.

  50.  @christopherdavidhughes8934 : I'm from New Zealand, and I support human and legal rights. Humanity has evolved considerably from solving disputes by "pushing back". That was the old tribal behaviour that Ben was talking about. Five or more Arab nations went to war against Israel in 1948, and again a few times after that, so it seems that a good many Arabs still felt the need to "drive them out from where they drove you out". That continues today, and is based on Islamic doctrine. After the defeat of the Ottoman Empire in 1918, the League of Nations acknowledged the Jews as indigenous to historic Palestine and in 1922 the Jewish people were given the legal right to reconstitute their homeland. The non-Jewish occupants of the land were to be guaranteed freedom of religion, and equal rights under the law, which they have today. It took until 1947 amid a lot of hostility from Arabs before they could implement this right but eventually they founded the land of Israel. The dismembered Middle East land of the Ottoman Caliphate was not retained by the victors of WWI but given to Arabs and Jews for self-determination. The Arabs got 99% of the land, countries today called Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. The Jews got less than 1% but they accepted that. And one-fifth of Israeli citizens are Arabs. That seems more than fair and reasonable to me. The displaced Arabs should have been resettled in neighbouring lands but the Arab League did not allow this because it wanted to weaponise the Palestinians in their fight (jihad) agains the Jews. UNRWA also keeps them as perpetual refugees for the same reason. Note: going to war against other nations, then losing those wars, has consequences!
