The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: A Century-Long Struggle for Land and Identity

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is one of the most enduring and complex struggles in modern history, lasting over a century and deeply rooted in both territorial and identity disputes. In this video, we explore the historical origins, pivotal events, and current state of the conflict, unpacking the complex dynamics between Jews and Arabs in the region. From the rise of Zionism and Arab nationalism to the creation of Israel, the wars, peace talks, and the ongoing occupation, the struggle for land and self-determination has shaped the Middle East in profound ways.
We begin by tracing the origins of the conflict back to the late 19th century, examining key moments like the Balfour Declaration, the British Mandate, the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, and the subsequent displacement of Palestinians. The 1967 Six-Day War, the Oslo Accords, and the rise of Hamas further complicated the situation, and the ongoing crisis in Gaza adds to the complexity. As we explore the modern state of affairs, we also look at the prospects for peace—or the lack thereof—amidst a divided Palestinian leadership, Israeli settlement expansion, and deep-rooted hostilities.
This video aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the history and current realities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Whether you're new to the topic or looking to deepen your understanding, this breakdown helps make sense of the region’s turbulent history and its uncertain future.
