this is the most controversial video I will make and it's about Israel and Palestine and more than 10 million people have asked for this video so here it is with no filters and I hope you watch to the end I'm going to take you on a journey to finally understand my Israel and my Palestine in 1992 God gave me the greatest gift in the world to be born in the most controversial place on Earth inside of Israel to a Palestinian family yes 20 of Israel is not Jewish it is made of people like me Muslim
Arab Palestinian for Generations but born under the Israeli government with an Israeli identity and passport I wish I was born in Denmark instead with blonde hair and blue eyes but I wasn't my unique controversial background helped me see things not many people can see for one I saw what Palestinians see I was called a terrorist by a 15 year old Jewish girl I was almost attacked by an Israeli soldier and I was stuck at checkpoints for hours I saw what Israelis see I saw Rockets fall on Israel I hid in a bomb shelter with Israeli
friends and I saw Jews afraid for their life I opened my Facebook and I saw my Palestinian friend who lost his innocent cousin from an Israeli airstrike I scroll and I see my Israeli friend who lost his brother from a Palestinian who stabbed him in the back outside of the conflict I saw Palestinians living in refugee camps just because they're Palestinians where are you from I saw Jews kicked out of the Middle East just because they're Jewish what's in common with everything you saw suffering pain anger suffering it exists on both sides both sides and
no one can deny that no one suffering pain anger you know a lot of people want to see Israel disappear I don't I think Israel should exist because it has good people inside of it and I think Palestine should exist because it has good people inside of it and that's why I think it's not one or the other and I really don't like it when everybody keeps saying it's one country it's fake countries it's it's a stupid argument Israel and Palestine is not a game where people get to pick sides and cheer on them from
a distance for you it's a conflict that's thousands of miles away but for me it's life and death if Israel doesn't exist that means the death of my family if Palestine doesn't exist that means the death of my people that's why we need two independent countries for two people living side by side in peace with no one dying not from an airstrike or a knife attack it's my job and yours to push for a solution that stops the suffering it's been going for 74 years non-stop my solution is simple bring people together not apart this
is why we make these videos this is why we support the many Israelis who want peace and the Palestinians who need peace we hired six Palestinians in my company and we hired three Israelis too we invested in real estate in Palestine and we invested in tech companies in Israel too this video is not about me this is not about Israel or Palestine this is about every conflict in the world the extremists on both sides will force you to join them and be them but you are not them you are not an extremist who wants to
keep the suffering Alive You and I I just want a solution so instead of siding with the extremist get out of your village and befriend an enemy you will see what I saw for 30 years you will see that they want the same things you do you want a home you want a job you want a family but above all you just want to live you know there's a very sad thing and there's a very sad thing I made this like 12 year old kid in one of the two countries I'm not going to say
which and he told me I love your videos because I also want peace and immediately the people around him said no you can't say that we want Justice for ourselves and we want to defeat the enemy one year later the kid was saying I want to defeat the enemy and that was the saddest thing I saw in my life
