For those who want to see the ugly truth of Israel (you gotta see this video "shot in 1950")

There is an astonishing amount of ignorance about the basic facts of the so-called Arab-Israeli conflict.This video was shot in the late 1940s to educate the public about the plight of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who had been made homeless as a result of the violence and intimidation that accompanied the founding of the state of Israel.
 
As Israel celebrates its 60th birthday,
let's take a look at what kind of a country
Israel really is.This is an old black and white film, made
before the Israeli War Party succeeded in
subverting US politics and news media.
 
When you hear the phrase "Palestinian
refugee camps", this is what it meant
in the years after hundreds of thousands
of Palestinians were illegally evicted
from their lands by "newly born" Israel.

 

On this video, Dorothy Thompson speaks on the refugee problem. Refugees live in tents in the Gaza Strip, are given blankets and food by Egyptian soldiers, and receive flour from UNICEF. A Lebanese priest conducts services. Refugees work as plumbers, carpenters, tailors, and shoemakers in the city of Jerusalem. Doctors vaccinate refugees against disease. Shows the squalid living conditions in refugee camps, starving children, and emphasizes the hopeless condition of the refugees.

 

What most Palestinians thought would be a temporary dislocation lasting only a few weeks at most became permanent. Homeless with just the clothes on their backs, they were left in the desert without food, water, and medical care to die.
