I purposely misspelled Israel in the heading and description to prevent the people on here trying to stifle the truth from searching for this video. If you believe people should know about this, please click the share button and shout it to all of your friends, and click on the favorite button.
This video is probably some of the best documentary evidence of the apartheid situations in the Gaza Strip to date. To think, the same nation mourned just 2 captured SOLDIERS when this type of genocide is being imposed on Palestinians by their government.
The US provides more aid to Israel, a rich country, than any other nation on Earth. We give them $6.8 million dollars a day! This is what they do with that cash.
There is a way to stop this:
Step 1 - Go to http://www.ifamericansknew.org/ to see more of the FACTS and statistics. Inform yourself.
Step 2 - Go to http://www.makeyourcall.org/ and find out how to call or write your representatives in the Government. This is the ONLY way to make a change. Don't be angry at the system, use it against your adversaries in the fight for justice and morality.
America is truly a noble nation... it's the government that has made people think we are not. Do the right thing. Digg this, share it with your friends, and never let the fight die until the last evil intention is deserted.- lemur, on 07/27/2008, -2/+22http://www.ifamericansknew.org/
I've known about this site for a while, but it's the first time I sat down and actually read all of the information on it. I found the history section to be especially useful in understanding what has been going on. - raytibbitts, on 07/28/2008, -1/+9Keep the cameras rolling.
On both sides.
Maybe if enough people get repulsed by war and hatred and hypocrisy, it will someday make a difference.
On both sides. - DrDreyfus, on 07/29/2008, -4/+2http://palestinefacts.org/
You might find this refreshing - it doesn't have a blatant charter professing bias.- rexblade, on 08/02/2008, -0/+3DrDreyfus what was your opinion on 2 part documentary? I think that attacking Israelis is probably not the best course of action by the Palestinian but it would appear from what I have seen in this and many other videos and testimony that the Israel is being the bigger aggressor. And while it does take 2 to fight it is Israel who is launching tanks into neighborhoods and firing on children. With the history involved in this it will not just go away.
I think all people need to see this, if this is somehow antisemitic to be troubled by this then i think you are distorting a term in order to excuse the same kind of activity which is just like that which actually does define antisemitism. Im not saying one side is right and one is wrong I am saying both are wrong. But you clearly have a military group receiving orders to behave this way. And the large majority of the victims it seems are not the intended target. There seems to be a disturbing prejudice though that these people are disposable. I don't care what religion you claim I find it hard to believe any of them encourage oppression of others as a way to enlightenment.
They have got to be smart enough to realize what is making these people angry. Its the same thing that pisses them off. It cant end well if this is the way they choose to deal with it. And one of these groups is a bit over the aggressive line. Here we are being encouraged to to sanction Iran who isnt launching armored raids into its neighborhoods, and people are talking about pressure on Zimbabwe because they are politically bullying the people who would like a change.
Does the irony really escape these people who call any who disapprove of this "a racist" but its ok to shoot a tank shell through a kids head because he is Palestinian? - Kizilbash, on 08/02/2008, -0/+4"it doesn't have a blatant charter professing bias."
Which means what? It still has the bias. - rexblade, on 08/02/2008, -0/+2I noticed that too. Thought it was Foxnews.com.

- beatles901, on 07/27/2008, -8/+19Dave Matthews wrote "Don't Drink the Water" for the South African apartheid situation. See how clearly it applies here (it's the soundtrack to this video):
"Come out, come out, no use in hiding.
Come out, come out, can you not see
Theres no place here, what were you expecting?
No room for both, just room for me.
So you will lay your arms down,
Yes, I will call this home.
Away, away, you have been banished.
Your land is gone, and given to me.
And here I will spread my wings.
Yes, I will call this home.
Whats this you say, you feel a right to remain?
Then stay and I will bury you.
Whats that you say, your fathers spirit still lives in this place?
Well, I will silence you.
Heres the hitch, your horse is leaving.
Dont miss your boat, its leaving now.
And as you go I will spread my wings.
Yes, I will call this home.
I have no time to justify to you,
Fool, youre blind, move aside for me.
All I can say to you my new neighbor,
You must move on or I will bury you.
Now as I rest my feet by this fire
Those hands once warmed here, but I have retired them.
I can breathe my own air and I can sleep more soundly
Upon these poor souls,
Ill build heaven and call it home.
Cause youre all dead now.
I live with my justice
And I live with my greed in me
I live with no mercy
And I live with my frenzy feet
I live with my hatred
And I live with my jealousy
I live with the notion that I dont need anyone but me
Dont drink the water
Dont drink the water
Blood in the water
Dont drink the water" - Conspiracy20, on 07/28/2008, -6/+25Israel is deeply sorry, someone filmed this.
- Cryptocracy, on 08/17/2008, -7/+22Israel may try to justify itself by playing the victim of "terrorists" but in reality Israel is the real terrorist hiding behind armor (and the magic cloak of anti-semitism) and pushing buttons to KILL.
An occupying force can never claim self-defense as a reason to kill. - siszam, on 07/28/2008, -29/+2Palestinians would not be killed if they left the land that God gave to Israel. It's simple. Leave. They can't win when God has promised to protect Israel.
“ But you, Israel are My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the descendants of Abraham, My friend. You whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called from its farthest regions, and said to you, ‘You are My servant, I have chosen you and have not cast you away. Fear not for I am with you, be not dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’ Behold, all those who were incensed against you shall be ashamed and disgraced; they shall be as nothing, and those who strive with you shall perish. You shall seek them and not find them—those who contended with you. Those who war against you shall be as nothing, as a nonexistent thing. For I the Lord your God will hold your right hand, saying to you, ‘Fear not, I will help you ’” (Isaiah 41:8–13).- rugrat54, on 07/28/2008, -2/+17What was that little ol' commandment?
Thou shall not kill
Are you saying your god is a hypocrite amongst other things?- tazd1010, on 07/29/2008, -3/+0to disprove that last line of yours... The text says those who fight against will "be as nothing"... murder is never okay, self defense, according to the old testament called a "rodef" is not only allowed, but is an obligation...
- rugrat54, on 07/29/2008, -0/+5maybe, but what the Israelis are doing to the Palestinians isnt because of self defense.

- writie, on 07/28/2008, -1/+10Did he mention anything about Gaza when you last spoke to him?
- AchaIemoipas, on 07/28/2008, -1/+11Thank you for showing just how insane Israelis are.
- theShadow51, on 07/28/2008, -1/+9Umm ok, so by your logic, I can come into your house and say leave, and I talked to God last night and that's what he said too, so please vacate the premises.
- caferrell, on 07/29/2008, -2/+4And that, Ladies and Gentlemen is the real motivation of the Zionists. It explains why peace with Israel is impossible until the secular jews of the Labour party have an absolute majority of votes in the Knesset because Likud and the religious parties will never negotiate away their holy grail of "Biblical Israel"
Why are these religious fanatics portrayed as reasonable democrats while the Palestinians are portrayed as religious crazies? - DrDreyfus, on 07/29/2008, -1/+1Dude you're ***** crazy.
- rugrat54, on 07/28/2008, -2/+17What was that little ol' commandment?
- fadeout, on 07/28/2008, -19/+3Feel free to go into Gaza with a camera and film what's going on. Enjoy your beheading in the name of Allah or your years of torture as they blackmail your government demanding the release of baby murderers.
- Conspiracy20, on 07/28/2008, -2/+9Feel free to go into Israel with your camera and take a bullet from the IDF
- AchaIemoipas, on 07/28/2008, -3/+8Everytime someone goes into gaza for whatever, they come back with the same story: they gave me shelter and food and were very nice people.
Humanitarians killed by Hamas: 0.
Israel can't make that claim.- tazd1010, on 07/29/2008, -6/+3Now tally up the civilians... Hamas "wins" by having a higher number! whoohoo!
- medfreak, on 07/29/2008, -0/+6Erm... no. The number of civilians killed by Israel is at least 5 times that of those killed by all the Palestinian factions combined. The number of Children killed by Israel is 10 times that killed by all the Palestinian factions combined.

- medfreak, on 07/28/2008, -1/+6The first thing Hamas did when it took control of Gaza was release the British reporter for the BBC in Gaza. Seems like the agencies put in place by Israel did not want him to be released.

So much for your "beheading" theory.- AchaIemoipas, on 07/28/2008, -1/+7Q: Did you change your opinion of Gaza people after being kidnapped?
Safete, Prishtina, Kosovo
There is much more to my experience of Gaza than my kidnapping. I lived there before it for three years, during which time I came to know the extraordinary capacity of Palestinians for hospitality and kindness to strangers.
I knew that the behaviour of my captors was far removed from normal Gazan culture and tradition. A few times I felt that even my guards were a little embarrassed by what they were doing.
During my captivity I was able to follow on a radio the efforts being mounted to try to secure my release, and nowhere was the campaign more intense than in Gaza and the West Bank.
The vast majority of Palestinians seemed to condemn strongly what the Army of Islam had done. From Jenin to Rafah, people took to the streets in my support.
I am especially grateful to the Palestinian journalists who led the campaign with such determination. Astonishingly, in the fifth week of my captivity, they even fought with police as they tried to storm parliament during a protest.
If anything, I emerged from this affair with a higher opinion of the great masse of Palestinian people.

- DeskFlyer, on 07/28/2008, -6/+5This will never make the front page.
- tim04, on 07/29/2008, -1/+2guess what, I've got a book here written by the very HAND of God (I know because I was the witness) that clearly states that I own you. Now get the over here and make me a sandwich.
- andruslinda, on 08/02/2008, -2/+1This is the land that Christ walked in, Jesus isn't there yet. But war any war will abound until the Christ returns. Then he will release His proverbs and destry all evil and everything will be His way. No evil , no sickness, everlasting peace forever. If you're not going His way, prepare for the worst. Because it's surly coming soon!
- bcuban, on 08/05/2008, -3/+2Im going to cut you loose as a mutual friend. I am Jewish. I do not consider myself a zionist. You have a right to your opinions on Palestine and I have never buried any submission of yours with regards to Israel. I fully support your right to voice your opinion on this subject as long as you do not advocate violence which you seem to do in some of your comments. Free speech is what makes our country great. That being said and after reviewing your other comments believing- I am evil simply because I am Jewish is bigotry and anti-Semitism. I do not tolerate that from anyone on any level.
Peace
Brian Cuban- beatles901, on 08/06/2008, -0/+2No one said you are evil because you are Jewish. That's what we call a cop out and a hypersensitivity. Just because Israel decided to be a Jewish state does not mean that anything anti-Israel is anti-Jewish. Indeed, there are many Jews, my girlfriend included, who are wholly opposed to Israel.
