The Apartheid regime in South Africa may have discriminated against the blacks. It may have taken control of the country and its wealth, but it never threw them out of their lands ..
The British, French, Spanish, Dutch and Portuguese may have enslaved the peoples of the lands they controlled, but they never threw them out of their lands ..
Today, 7.2 million Palestinians are scattered throughout the world WITH NO RIGHT OF RETURN to their rightful lands .. they didn't only loose the wealth but their homes of 5,000 years as well.
I SEE a homeless people forced off their lands .. I SEE a world doing nothing about it .. I SEE an escalating violence because these people resort to violence to take back what was taken from them by violence .. I SEE everyone calling them terrorists whereas the real terrorists are those who stole the land 60 years ago!

I think it is one of the greatest tragedies of human history that these two great Semitic peoples, both so rich in common cultural roots as well as suffering from forced expulsion and genocide, have been pitted against one another... The blood of centuries of wars, colonization and as well as the appeasement of European conscience seeps deep into the root of the tree. I hope I live to see peace, justice and true humanity among those forceably exiled in my lifetime. Beautiful and sorrowful...

"Al Nakba" is more than just words. It is what happened to the Australian Aboriginees, The Hawaiians, The Native Americans, The Eskimo, The Innuit, The Aztecs, The Mayans,The Mexicans, The Phillipinos..etc..etc. The European / Zionist cancer must be stopped. Their goal is to conqure the world. Only Russia, Pakistan, Iran, Syria, China, Venezuela, Palistine stand in the way. "How do you stop the American Empire you ask?" "Stop the oil that feeds the military machine".

i'd like to be able to say the video is nice. but Justice fairly screams there is nothing "nice" about the topic you've chosen here. so i will say i feel its a fitting tribute to those that have suffered. i'm also mindful of ResearchX's comment about the First Nations and Innuit people (i live in canada) "guilty as charged". but then you're right too. we never forced the First Nations or the Innuit to leave. when will we learn to share that which never belonged to any of us?
