Need your help!
Hi everyone, I want to make a video about the Israel-Palestine war because recently I found out that a lot of people in my University actively support Israel or don’t know nearly enough about the conflict to come to any conclusions.
I want to include as many strong points as possible to really make it clear that Israel are not “the good guys”, show how fucked up the thriving Zionism is in Israel and how it destructive nature led to recent events.
If you have any information that would create a strong narrative to (hopefully) change their minds, that would be wonderful. Of course I will do my own research, but I want to make sure that I don’t miss anything important.
Thank you!
I would recommend holding a rally with informed speakers, including experts from your university, to show and build support. You will probably get a larger audience and will bring groups together that can build stronger actions together. Are there are Palestinian organizations on campus? I would start talking to them regardless.
Firstly, there’s no “war”. There’s a genocide that’s been going on for a long time and a resistance to it.
I was also always reading both sides and couldn’t decide, until I read Al Jazeera and some documentaries.
Here is what changed my mind:
- Talking to nice people from Palestine. They have incredibly sweet people. After this I was open to stop seeing them as terrorists.

- Facts:
For those who believe in private ownership, Jews had bought 7% of palestinian land until 1947. How did they than got 60% more of the land without paying? That’s stealing: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_land_purchase_in_Palestine
Israeli terrorist’s show how they killed and kicked out 800 000 Palestinians in 1948, stealing private property as I said above: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bwy-Rf15UIs
Search for Israeli terrorists groups Haganah and Irgun and you see see they dis terrorism against UK also to get their country. Read about King David Hotel bombing and other bombings around 1910-1949

- Reminder: As you seem until 1948 Jews legally owned 7% of the land. So they have the right of 7% I’d the land, not less.
Many Jewish were kicked out by threat to death from Arabic countries (not Palestine), so I thinks it’s fair to say they also should have their property back.
talk about the recent massacre of 100 people waiting at an aid truck
- Israel tried to ally itself with the Nazis
- literally everything Theodor Herzl has said, done and written
- The ICJ ruling
- IDF commanders citing and paraphrasing SS-Waffen commanders
- watch the documentary (think it’s called “Birth of a Nation”), shows them laughing about the atrocities they commited
- biggest open-air concentration camp
While writing this I realized you could probably just watch Hakims youtube videos about Palestine and Israel to get the major points
Not to be confused with the American “birth of a nation” made by the Klu Klux Klan.
Because of course that’s what you’d call a different, wholesome documentary. I work far too hard IRL to show people how reactionary politics are embedded in our media only to be told that I’m hallucinating and can’t I just enjoy things without bringing politics into it. And reactionaries are out there with several whole languages to choose words from and they decide the only suitable combinations have already been used by the KKK. I don’t know why I bother.
