Exceptional series, thoroughly enjoyed it and am better educated because of it.
Seems that if all the foreign meddling and money stopped that the people living there would settle this much more quickly. Probably be blood shed but, in my opinion, there would be less blood spilled.
If they would set up a "palestinian" state in an Arab country, instead of continuing to try to force Jewish Israel to harbor them, one could hope that the violence would cease or significantly reduce. They could try it, say, in Jordan. Oh - wait a minute!!
In fact, none of the surrounding, much larger, Arab states wants anything to do with them, so they largely stay in the only country that has historically tried to accept them, even though rule 1 in the "palestinians" "religion" is, "kill the Jew."
I agree. And, the USA would have been in a similar situation if the Comanches and Apaches had continued on killing and torturing incoming settlers while declaring "kill the Euro's". What made this different is, the settlers and what existed as their governing and protective authorities, chose to grab them up, neutralize them, and imprison them before it got to the point it appears to be in Israel.
Like the Palestinians the Apaches refused to see the inevitable; but then, it happened.
The Frontier WILL one day close. The only question is will the remaining Palestinians wake up?
There's a huge difference here. Arabs and Jews are both indigenous peoples. In the American frontier, the indigenous people were driven out, vilified for protecting their land and culture, lied to systematically, and sequestered onto reservations so that others could take what was theirs.
Jews meet every criterion of indigenous status under the UN's own working definition. Palestinians do not.
José R. Martínez-Cobo's authoritative UN criteria require:
* historical continuity with pre-invasion societies
* common ancestry with the original occupants
* distinct culture, language, and religion tied to the ancestral land
* determination to preserve that identity
Jews satisfy them all:
3,000+ years of continuity and return,
Levantine genetic ancestry, a culture and religion forged in and centered on the Land of Israel, and the unique revival of their ancestral language.
This is why Israel is the first modern indigenous state.
Palestinians have legitimate rights of longstanding presence. Those rights are real. They are not indigenous rights under the UN's own definition.
Arabic and Islam are indigenous to the Arabian Peninsula.
Most Palestinian national identity and culture crystallized in the 20th century.
Conquerors and their descendants do not become indigenous simply by long presence. Accepting that claim would erase the rights of every indigenous people on earth.
The Jews never abandoned their indigenous identity. They carried it through exile and returned.
I here ya' Joy but believe your view unduly simplifies the history.
-- The indigenous American Indians were never indigenous. They migrated from upper Asia(now Russia) across the frozen ice into Alaska and moved south as far as South America. There is no record of them encountering other peoples but likely spread far and wide at will. They were just not ever in a position of having to TAKE these lands by force.
-- These people were savages. Read some accounts of the tortures they did as they warred between tribes and what they did to the first settlers in the east who ventured too far from the fort. Horrific. They were not Pocahantus peaceniks.
-- With no actual war against them, with no legal rights to any land, these peoples kidnapped, raped, and tortured the outer habitations of the original colonies. This practice continued for two centuries as "settlers" filtered ever westward to the Pacific.
-- As far as I know, no president, no Congress, no American cavalry was ever sent out to lay waste all of Illinois or any other territory to "take" the land. People just moved farther out from the East as a natural way to be free from government control and be on their own to live. They did not send out 3 cavalry brigades with each wagon train or before them to "clear" the land before them. The USA did NOT make war on these poor indigenous folks. These savages did though.
-- Things would have been different if, for example, Christopher Columbus had found an entire empire pre-existing that rivaled all of Europe's countries.
The Euro's would have tried to use birth-right citizenship to get in rather than Plymouth Rock Pilgrims.
It is true that there are NO indigenous people by your definition, because everyone came from somewhere else, but comparing peoples that came over the land bridge from Asia to an empty continent (or two) is far different than pushing out the population. It's history everywhere. Just look at the history of Britain; The picts, then the Romans, then the Angles, then the Saxons, then the Danes and Norsemen. The only indigenous people left in Britain are the Welch.
Are you not aware that entire empires did exist in South America and were destroyed by Europe's invasions? Are you aware that there's is evidence of sophisticated civilizations in North America? The Native Americans are most likely their descendants.
But it's so convenient to call people "savages" when it can allow others to take their land, isn't it? Why did they need an actual war declared, btw? Are abuses not abuses until a formal document says so? And what do you mean by "no legal right" to their own land? You mean European style law? No rights of soil? And are you aware of the horrific brutalities and tortures that occurred all over Europe in pre and post anno domini times?
Your arguments ring hollow and one-sided in my ears.
Actually I am aware of the many contradicting wars and results of wars over many ages but without reading the accounts to which I refer, you are not aware of the many reasons Indians were depicted as SAVAGES-- that exact term used many, many times by early settlers and those traversing the Oregon trail who were quite literally savaged by them.
After you've read a bit, get back to me, please!
The Jesuit Relations-- specifically page 272

NO, I would not but there are some things that are inevitable whether I "like" it or not. It was inevitable that all the JEWS died in Messina in 70 AD, but I don't "like" it. If they had just "woken up" and discerned that the immense boot of the Roman Empire was to come down on 300 people they may have emigrated to . . . Russia or China or. . .
The fact is those left of the American Indian tribes by the end of the 19th century DID actually discern the large boot of those THEY had ravaged was coming for them. They stayed on the reservation in the face of overwhelming odds. . .
I think the Comanche were mostly busy killing off the Apaches. Similarly to the vicious fighting, rape, enslavement, genocide, etc., the various tribes had been perpetrating amongst each other since THEY came here tens of thousands of years earlier. We were just another "invading" tribe - with a twist!
Would that we (our ancestors) had looked upon the natives as people and not as a commodity (a less than) to attempt to destroy or overrule. Inevitable... we just keep on keepin on. Not anything new.
They could also all just go to Jordan, except Jordan probably won't take them, either. None of the Arab countries want to have anything to do with them.
The fighting started when Palestinians were forced to harbor Jewish people of Eastern European descent on their land. I am one of those Eastern Europen descent Ashkenazi people and I can tell you, I am not semitic. And I have no claim to Palestinian lands.
Rule 1 by about 75% of Zionists (not Jewish people) is to kill Palestinians - anything to get them off the land they stole, just like Nazi's wanted rid of Jews. How can you not see how perverted this all is?
If you read the Talmud, there are plenty of references to getting rid of Christians.
How about if we set up a "Jewish" state in part of Germany? -- oh yeah, Germany and most of the European countries wanted nothing to do with the Jews, so by YOUR logic, that proves they are not worthy of respect. Which of course is ridiculous.
Jordanians (population 11.6Million) have their own people to support. Just because you are in favor of the great land theft by Zionists doesn't mean Jordan is able to take in 7.6 Million Palestinians. Just like it would be challenging for the US to take in another 1/2 of it's population - 160M people - from Mexico and Canada. Seriously?
And why would, Mexicans or Canadians, have to move into the U.S. just because someone laid claim to their land based on 3000 years ago - especially when most of those people are not actually from that land!
Finally, if you really feel that 3,000 year old land claims are the default, I assume you will give your land back to one of the American Indian tribes.
I finally did a search and found this from Brave AI:
“Ashkenazi Jews are Semitic, possessing both Levantine genetic origins and a historical connection to Semitic languages like Hebrew and Aramaic. Genetic studies confirm that while Ashkenazi Jews have significant European admixture (particularly in maternal lineages), their paternal lineages are overwhelmingly Middle Eastern, linking them directly to ancient Israel and the Levant.
“Genetic Evidence indicates that Ashkenazi Jews are a diaspora population with a genome that is approximately 40–60% Levantine/Middle Eastern and the remainder primarily Southern and Eastern European.
Linguistic and Historical Context further defines their Semitic identity, as Jews historically spoke and liturgically used Hebrew and Aramaic, which are Semitic languages. Claims that Ashkenazi Jews are not Semitic, such as the discredited Khazar hypothesis or recent political statements by figures like Mahmoud Abbas, are widely regarded by scholars and geneticists as antisemitic canards intended to delegitimize Jewish ties to the Middle East.”
Good grief, learn history, the Palestinians are indiginous to the very land they live on, to the land arbitrarily given Zionist Israel… their land was stolen by colonialists including the Ottoman Turks, then the despicable colonialists, the good ole U.K, all because the Palestinians were not strong enough militarily to resist… in short they have taken from them what had been theirs for millennia… at least the Ottoman Turks allowed them to retain a semblance of communal and independent agency…
I have a suggestion, how about as the Palestinians were required to do resulting the 1947/8 U.N resolution the U.S gives up ..oh, say 55% of its territory to all comers, those seeking a better life, those who have been persecuted, especially resulting the countless wars, coups regime changes the U.S has orchestrated and perpetrated since WW2, I mean, why not, if it was good enough for Palestinians and we have a precedent why not … when these new comers arrive they can simply enter a property, be it domestic, rural, commercial, a farm, a business and proceed to kick out the occupiers, the owners claiming it as theirs, we can allow them to roam, armed, to take by force from those who try to defend their property, sounds great, good enough to me, anyone who moans, lock them up, arrest them, no trial and while in custody, rape, sodomise them, torture them, kill any journalist who reports such slights.. they are only slights, nothing serious to worry about, in fact those arriving we can allow to establish laws, laws they enforce with violence against anyone objecting the laws that confirms and legalises new ownership… that ought do it, we have the Israeli model to work from … works for them, good enough over there ought be good enough in the U.S, I think it’s a great solution…
I appreciate Malones efforts but his wires have been crossed, his understanding of the history leaves a lot to be desired, his efforts as noted commendable but lacking …
Fact is U.N resolutions 1948 recognising the Zionist State of Israel the further resolution 1967 that set definitively the borders of Palestine and of Israel, subsequent full UNSC resolutions 1982.
The United Nations General Assembly convened in New York on 13 September 2025 to discuss the decades-long conflict between Israel and Palestine. In a decisive session, member countries voted overwhelmingly in favor of the New York Declaration, a resolution explicitly backing the establishment of a two-state solution.
The United Nations General Assembly convened in New York on 13 September 2025 to discuss the decades-long conflict between Israel and Palestine. In a decisive session, member countries voted overwhelmingly in favor of the New York Declaration, a resolution explicitly backing the establishment of a two-state solution.
The U.N. General Assembly gathered in response to escalating humanitarian and political crises following the October 2023 Hamas attacks and subsequent Israeli military actions in Gaza. Specifically, with tens of thousands killed and famine spreading, state actors sought a binding framework to address violence, humanitarian suffering, and political deadlock….. Note that the resolution is called the New York Declaration. It was co-sponsored by France and Saudi Arabia to set out a pathway for peace centred on recognition of Palestinian statehood.
The New York Declaration passed with broad support. 142 of the 193 member-states voted in favor of the resolution. These countries spanned Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Only 10 opposed and 12 abstained. Opposition came from Israel, the United States, and several allies, while abstaining nations included Albania, the Czech Republic, and Ethiopia. Israel again, as it always has categorically disapproved of the declaration. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated his opposition to Palestinian statehood, reinforcing his and his predecessor’s intransigence and opposition to any form of Palestinian statehood. Israel has been asserting exclusive historical rights over the land, land they occupy illegally.. period.
It must be recalled, the Palestinians were the only people to ever approve post WW2 Jews a home, agreeing to settle survivors of the Camps, however we know Zionists, the Ashkenazi East Europeans, appropriated the horrors of the Camps, the holocaust and used it to further their own nefarious agenda… an agenda that is heavily centric the Theodor Herzl Zionist ideology, the result of which was these Zionists in appropriating the holocaust to cite ad nauseum to defeat any opposition to the ideology espoused, ardently and assiduously followed, the consequences of which many live with presently, including most notoriously in the U.S where AIPAC has secured such an sized influence within the U.S political system, literally owning politicians at the Federal, State and large Urban metropolis level, Zionists and their interests now control U.S media, mainstream and popular (Entertainment), they influence positions that are voted to be filled such as States gubernatorial, Attorneys General, Judgeships, Mayoralty, School Districts.
In fact any position in the U.S is up for grabs, whereby they.. Zionists believe that having influence over the majority can be achieved, achieved by buying, bullying, intimidating and especially blackmailing candidates and those in office, tactics akin and that you’d expect from criminals… criminals like those in organised crime… you’ll find Zionists buying and exerting this influence, much of the statute, law and regulations legislated at Federal, State, Municipal that impact the individual has been written and sponsored by Zionists and Zionist interests… the objective is… dominance, the real goal, global dominance, one world governance, when you consider everything that has impacted you, your nation, the nation, international bodies like the U.N, ICC, WHO, U.S military that has been fighting perpetually in the Middle East since 9/11, indeed there are few truly centric Muslim nations that have not been intimidated, forced, or been subject to coup, regime change all with the objective of ensuring Zionist Israel’s influence and power grows…
Nine eleven, the background to that is highly suspect, the bringing down of building 7, the towers, the events leading up to and preceding highly questionable and in need of answers with many more learned and qualified than I correctly now questioning the entire matter.. however what is interesting is that there is always one side that obfuscates, outrightly lies, denies, stretches the truth, kills with compunction, illegally detains, shoots children, woman, the elderly, no one is safe.. the more death, it seems, the happier the Zionist ghouls tend to be.. a lot to do with their belief structure, the manifesto they adhere unto of Theodor Herzl..
Now, Israel publicly state the next target after Iran that is a danger to Israel is Türkiye, that Pakistan is a terrorist state as well as a sponsor of terrorism.. the same old narrative, trope, rhetoric, different nations, same outcome sought… it’s long past time this nation that gestates death, misery, destruction, that sodomises, rapes, tortures its charges, especially delighting in doing so to children, to health professionals, journalists, woman, many of the aforementioned targeted and killed using the cynical “Daddy’s Home” their “Mowing The Grass” killing Palestinians at regular intervals and even killing their own as they did the hundreds the IDF killed October 7 under theirs, Israel’s Hannibal Directive…Zionist Israel is a nation of Warmonger’s, Regime Change, Assassination, of fomenting Coups, Genocide and of Apartheid laws established against the Semites of the Levant… nothing short of being rapists, sodomists, torturers, murderers, thieves, destroyers of Christian religious sites throughout the Levant, they have bombed synagogues in Tehran, one, the world’s second oldest synagogue… Zionists, despise Jews, Jews who strictly follow the Abramic Faith and who foreswear Zionism… they are sanctuary providers to indicted Criminals including War Criminals but especially sexual deviants indicted and wanted internationally for committing heinous crimes against especially children… who upon arriving at the Israeli border can claim citizenship by simply declaring they are Zionists, note, not Jewish but claiming to be Zionist… says it all really.. understand your true enemy, be informed, global opposition is not against Judaism, never has been, it’s against this Zionist agenda… there is a difference, subtle but oh so real, therefore I urge you all to read the history of this despicable abomination.. understand the difference between Zionism and Judaism…
However I reinforce that Zionism is not Judaism, never ever has been and never will be.. just saying
Since January 2023, 45 Palestinian communities have been fully displaced across the West Bank due to settler attacks and related access restrictions, including nine communities in 2026.
According to the Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Cluster, access to water and sanitation services across the West Bank remains constrained due to ongoing settler violence, movement restrictions, demolitions, and damage to infrastructure, particularly in the northern West Bank, Masafer Yatta in Hebron governorate, and other herding communities residing in Area C.
Report Confirms Israel Ordered ‘Hannibal Directive’ During October 7 Response....
A report published by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz on Sunday confirmed that the Israeli military implemented a secretive procedure known as the “Hannibal directive” during the response to the October 7 Hamas attack on southern Israel.
The directive allows Israeli forces to prevent Israelis from being taken hostage, even if that means putting their lives in danger or by killing them. The directive had historically only applied to soldiers, but it was also used on Israeli civilians during the October 7 response.
????? WTF, why should indigenous Palestinians be forced to leave ancestral lands that can be traced back to their having lived upon and occupied going back millennia… here’s a thought, how about indiginous Indians telling Americans who stole their land, genociding tens of millions of native Indians to just f..k off.. literally, you, your mother your brats and BBQ… f..k off. Bet you’d go willingly, at least Palestinians haven’t in millennia sans the days of Samson, genocided anyone…
Thinking such as you espouse is the problem, the Zionist genocidal, rapist, sodomising, torturing, targeters of children, sexual deviants with a egregious propensity for sexually abusing children, a state construct that provides sanctuary to known indicted criminals both War and especially sexual, who are internationally indicted for crimes against children, some of the most salacious and worst imaginable.. pedophiles.. given and granted sanctuary at the Zionist border, merely by turning up and pledging fealty to this turgid state… Isteal/Israel a state that has never abided any U.N resolution for the dual state, that has contrived and orchestrated division, assassinated politicians that supported such, that swear they will never accept international will passed numerous UNSC resolutions, resolutions that defined the borders, borders paid no heed unto by this sociopathic psychotic state, whose populace overwhelmingly (82%) at last poll countenance and endorse such vile behaviour and policy… that now suggest Turkey, Pakistan must be dealt with after Iran… my advice F..k the lot of them, Zionists, evil f..ks, that’s not to conflate Judaism with the evil that is founder Theodor Herzl’s wet dream and hard on… in short, they, Zionists are despicable people, humanity would be better off without them… indeed at the rate they are endearing themselves to humanity, it won’t be long… and finally to anyone screaming anti semite, this that… no one gives a continental or a flying f..k any more, bleat as much as you like, just more blah, blah, blah… Zionist bull shitzen… just saying
International observers, human rights organizations, and legal bodies conclude that Israeli settler violence in the West Bank is not a collection of random, isolated acts, but a systematic mechanism of territorial expansion and forced displacement.
Probably true, but as Dr Malone explained well, the results (violent dispute and acquisition) would likely be similar. In the American analogy, settlers wanted land, or a new life, or?? Went out and got it and fought to hold it. I expect he same has been happening in the West bank with or without government involvement. Government involvement might speed up the progression, and might actually make it less bloody. Whether palestinians like it or not the jewish people were given back their ancestral homeland, and in the process of two wars not only kept it, but expanded it (control) when attacked by several countries that bordered them. Acquisition and retention of territory is a natural result of war, like it or not. I fully expect land to be retained by Russia in the final end of the Ukraine war.
Amazing body of work! You have been able to break down a very complicated subject and help educate those of us who only listen to news accounts. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this fantastic series. Very eye opening and educational. Each reader can arrive at their own conclusions. In my case the series has solidified my primary thoughts while giving much food for thought in other areas I hadn't thought to consider.
It's obvious you both have a heart that seeks to understand... and your readers benefit greatly from your experience and detailed research.
My understanding of the term Palestinian is that it is the remnant of a self-imposed diaspora of Arab residents who refused to accept assimilation into the newly formed state of Israel. Appears their progeny are no more tolerant and so to attempt their inclusion seems a bad idea
Remember that there were many Jews in the neighboring countries prior to 1948. After Harry Truman recognized Israel as a state at 6:11pm on May 14th, 1948, literally 11 minutes after the Nation of Israel was formally established by the United Nations at 6pm. Truman’s entire foreign policy team was against this idea. Truman and Trump have been the greatest American friends to Israel since 1948. After Israel was established, many Jews were expelled from surrounding nations and they lost their ancient homelands in Egypt, Jordan, Syria, etc… and many came to Israel. Displaced peoples went both ways. The British left the same day and the surrounding Arab nations attacked Israel beginning the first Arab/Israeli War. You can still see the valley between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem where the Arabs would shoot at the trucks bringing supplies to Jerusalem , and several museums of the blown up trucks are made into monuments along the side of the highway. It was a ‘turkey shoot”. Israel had no armored vehicles so they welded steel plates to delivery trucks and many men died tying to feed the families and fellow Israelis in Jerusalem.
It is ironic that as soon as Israel was established, Jews were kicked out of so many places; yet those same nations that expelled them are the loudest in complaining how the Jews flooded in to the only place left for them to go.
Arabs will always want to Jews. Their children are taught from birth that their only destiny is to kill Jews and Christians. No 100,000 word analysis will change that simple equation. And it will soon be happening here in America if we don’t stop the Muslim takeover of our cities.
They are working on it... Infiltrating govt is one of the 8 forms of jihad (former radical Muslim Isik Abla interview). What is terrifying now is that they are rapidly succeeding. I didn't think I'd ever see Islam in our govt offices, especially after 9-11... and yet there are now hundreds+, from local offices on up to federal reps.
The muslim infiltration into our government began during Obama's reign. Valerie Jarrett, whose parents were both active in the muslim brotherhood, was instrumental in the muslim brotherhood infiltration. Obama policy was the direct result of the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood in Minnesota concentration of Somalians and the arab concentration in Dearborn Michigan.
Obama started it. The others that have come upon the scene are merely continuing the effort. I just wonder when WE THE PEOPLE are going to counter the effort.
Sometimes they show the educational materials and cartoons for muslim children. It is true, they are indoctrinated from birth to kill Jews, even in children’s cartoons
Your work preparing these series is very much appreciated. They have been thought provoking, to say the least. Enjoy your time back home. You two deserve a rest.
Modern version of the Wild Wild West where the white man's push to control the land west of the Mississippi was to contain and control the American Indian, which has been sequestered on the poorest land in the West. In Arizona, the Gila River Indians are clawing back their share of water rights. A never ending struggle.
Thank you Doc’s. I am now much more informed and smarter than I ever was about this subject. You both did excellent work here. I’d suggest Pulitzer but you don’t work for WAPO or the NY Times.
These in-depth essays are excellent. But I do think the risk of selection bias is real. Especially for two "thought leaders" whose opinions would be highly important to either side. I suggest you make another trip, this time hosted by the Palestinians, to balance out the information you are processing.
I think if you contacted Max Blumenthal, he would help arrange it. And I agree it is extremely important. As for the comments about safety. There are multiple YouTubers who have posted their trips to/with Palestinians and they have been treated very well. I will say that the best neighbor my parents had in the Bay Area is Palestinian and my last name is Jewish. The assumption of some of your readers about Palestinians is disheartening.
What I have read, when Palestinians are few or in the minority, they are very nice. However, when they start to outnumber the Infidels, they are not so nice.
Problem there is they would receive no factual information, only lies. Fortunately, the doctors know the difference. Waste of their precious time. Don't we hear enough of their propaganda daily? Too much.
Did they also send you pictures of the 6,000 dead/maimed Palestinians during the peaceful marches of 2018/2019? Snipers hiding behind a rock on their side of the fence having target practice.
Not sure where your info comes from. The UN and the global news media lie because they want all Jews dead. Jews have had several Holocaust type events in their 4000 year history. Including ancient Persia with the Persian King Ahasuerus (Xerxes 1) Queen Esther (Haddassah), her Uncle Mordechai, and Haman in the 5th century BC. If there was a genocide today in Israel, then why does the population of Muslims keep increasing in the State of Israel? Gaza is part of Egypt, not Israel. Egyptians don’t want so called ‘Palestinians’ because they are often terrorists. No muslim nation wants them. Obama launched the Arab spring with his destruction of Ghadafi in Libya . This switched on the Muslim Brotherhood attacks on Egypt and they had a civil war between the Egyptian government and the Muslim brotherhood. This is why Egypt wants nothing to do with so called ‘Palestinians’. The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in Cairo in the late 1920’s as a reaction to the destruction of of the Ottomon Califate in WW1 by British forces. General Allenby freed what we call Israel and after that came the British Mandate, the partition of the area into the Transjordan and Israel. Learn some history sir.
What is left out of the extensively researched, thoughtful and illuminating series is that Israel is dealing with a people who would not cede 1 foot of land to them under any circumstances because they are not followers of Islam. History does not matter to them and they would willingly destroy all trace of it to get their way, as we have seen. Why not view the October 7 videos they made. They deserve a state? Such barbarism should be condemned and punished, not rewarded. Go find one of them who disagrees with what they did to innocent people on October 7th. Even if the victims were not innocent, such barbarism is unknown outside of Hitler's camps and should never be employed on any form of life. We live during a very strange time. Everything is upside down. People have lost their moral compass, lost their humanity. And you are worried about their fight over a piece of land the size of New Jersey when they already occupy a vast region and beyond.
Nobody wants to talk about it. It is not polite. It should be broadcast worldwide for all to see what they did to innocent people. The indoctrinated students should be force fed these videos. Maybe they would not be so eager to destroy our country afterwards.
Dr. Malone , I love reading your emailed notes but they are quite long to read. Is there any chance you could record them so we can listen to them in the car , etc. Respectfully . Marcel Cesar MD
We have water issues right here that are troubling. Every land does. Our situation with water use reminds me of the notion that timber was so plentiful that there could be no end to logging. Then there was the buffalo; so many that near extinction couldn't be a problem. Oh, then there was the beaver, whose instinct to work for nature was overlooked and thwarted to this day. The endless supply of fish, including the whale, was gorged upon (the oil) with little consideration except for the native peoples. Take an indigenous people out of their familiar setting, with all the faults and shortsightedness included, and there is a fracture that splits the psyche. Bring in a people who have lost the connection with nature for too long and there is an element of discordance that is almost impossible to heal. And here we are.
You do know what became of many of the buffalo, yes? Shot from trains by settlers moving west—a deliberate policy to destroy the food source of the Indigenous peoples.
Drs Malone: thank you so much for another exceptional educational series! So many of us here in America really do not have a true understanding of this situation. I sure didn’t! Many issues are hard for me to comprehend but this helps! I want to understand and I questioned Tucker Carlson’s reports and interviews, and was disappointed in his attacks on Huckabe! Especially after reading Mike’s accounts of the situation. Who to believe? I know my answer. It is obvious the two of you put much thought and effort into this series. Thanks again!
The stinky can of worms laid out so very thoroughly and without favoring the mixed content. I am again in awe.
I can't help feeling distraught at the long, so very often violent clashes of the two populations. It IS so reminiscent of our own history of settlements.
There is no perfect, no one side is the favored in my mind. Yes, I abhor terrorist bullies and their slogans, doctrines, hate. It is not the countries these haters occupy which are the problem. It is the cancer of the occupiers who work, turning the body of the uneducated, frightened population, to be absorbed into their invading ugly cells. I, myself, will not add hate of a civilization on my docket. I will not look at the present as only having 1 right side of humanity, in this difficult situation. Who is on the correct side of God's law? I am Not the one to decide that.
We can look back on the history of this cruel saga to date and see it is not going well. We can hear cries of suffering and hate on both sides. We do not and can not know the future. We can only plan and think carefully about our reactions to it as it is coming, possibly to a city near us soon.
Pain, suffering, hate, cruelty, terrorist rule of law, dictatorship, vindictiveness, slavery or torture of captured. All this is decided by a few and accepted (woe unto us) by the many. I hope I am brave enough, if and when the time should arrive, to not succumb.
Morning Doc's.
Exceptional series, thoroughly enjoyed it and am better educated because of it.
Seems that if all the foreign meddling and money stopped that the people living there would settle this much more quickly. Probably be blood shed but, in my opinion, there would be less blood spilled.
thank you. It has come at a cost, willingly paid
If they would set up a "palestinian" state in an Arab country, instead of continuing to try to force Jewish Israel to harbor them, one could hope that the violence would cease or significantly reduce. They could try it, say, in Jordan. Oh - wait a minute!!
In fact, none of the surrounding, much larger, Arab states wants anything to do with them, so they largely stay in the only country that has historically tried to accept them, even though rule 1 in the "palestinians" "religion" is, "kill the Jew."
I agree. And, the USA would have been in a similar situation if the Comanches and Apaches had continued on killing and torturing incoming settlers while declaring "kill the Euro's". What made this different is, the settlers and what existed as their governing and protective authorities, chose to grab them up, neutralize them, and imprison them before it got to the point it appears to be in Israel.
Like the Palestinians the Apaches refused to see the inevitable; but then, it happened.
The Frontier WILL one day close. The only question is will the remaining Palestinians wake up?
There's a huge difference here. Arabs and Jews are both indigenous peoples. In the American frontier, the indigenous people were driven out, vilified for protecting their land and culture, lied to systematically, and sequestered onto reservations so that others could take what was theirs.
Jews meet every criterion of indigenous status under the UN's own working definition. Palestinians do not.
José R. Martínez-Cobo's authoritative UN criteria require:
* historical continuity with pre-invasion societies
* common ancestry with the original occupants
* distinct culture, language, and religion tied to the ancestral land
* determination to preserve that identity
Jews satisfy them all:
3,000+ years of continuity and return,
Levantine genetic ancestry, a culture and religion forged in and centered on the Land of Israel, and the unique revival of their ancestral language.
This is why Israel is the first modern indigenous state.
Palestinians have legitimate rights of longstanding presence. Those rights are real. They are not indigenous rights under the UN's own definition.
Arabic and Islam are indigenous to the Arabian Peninsula.
Most Palestinian national identity and culture crystallized in the 20th century.
Conquerors and their descendants do not become indigenous simply by long presence. Accepting that claim would erase the rights of every indigenous people on earth.
The Jews never abandoned their indigenous identity. They carried it through exile and returned.
That is not colonialism.
It is indigenous restoration.

I here ya' Joy but believe your view unduly simplifies the history.
-- The indigenous American Indians were never indigenous. They migrated from upper Asia(now Russia) across the frozen ice into Alaska and moved south as far as South America. There is no record of them encountering other peoples but likely spread far and wide at will. They were just not ever in a position of having to TAKE these lands by force.
-- These people were savages. Read some accounts of the tortures they did as they warred between tribes and what they did to the first settlers in the east who ventured too far from the fort. Horrific. They were not Pocahantus peaceniks.
-- With no actual war against them, with no legal rights to any land, these peoples kidnapped, raped, and tortured the outer habitations of the original colonies. This practice continued for two centuries as "settlers" filtered ever westward to the Pacific.
-- As far as I know, no president, no Congress, no American cavalry was ever sent out to lay waste all of Illinois or any other territory to "take" the land. People just moved farther out from the East as a natural way to be free from government control and be on their own to live. They did not send out 3 cavalry brigades with each wagon train or before them to "clear" the land before them. The USA did NOT make war on these poor indigenous folks. These savages did though.
-- Things would have been different if, for example, Christopher Columbus had found an entire empire pre-existing that rivaled all of Europe's countries.
The Euro's would have tried to use birth-right citizenship to get in rather than Plymouth Rock Pilgrims.
It is true that there are NO indigenous people by your definition, because everyone came from somewhere else, but comparing peoples that came over the land bridge from Asia to an empty continent (or two) is far different than pushing out the population. It's history everywhere. Just look at the history of Britain; The picts, then the Romans, then the Angles, then the Saxons, then the Danes and Norsemen. The only indigenous people left in Britain are the Welch.
Are you not aware that entire empires did exist in South America and were destroyed by Europe's invasions? Are you aware that there's is evidence of sophisticated civilizations in North America? The Native Americans are most likely their descendants.
But it's so convenient to call people "savages" when it can allow others to take their land, isn't it? Why did they need an actual war declared, btw? Are abuses not abuses until a formal document says so? And what do you mean by "no legal right" to their own land? You mean European style law? No rights of soil? And are you aware of the horrific brutalities and tortures that occurred all over Europe in pre and post anno domini times?
Your arguments ring hollow and one-sided in my ears.
Actually I am aware of the many contradicting wars and results of wars over many ages but without reading the accounts to which I refer, you are not aware of the many reasons Indians were depicted as SAVAGES-- that exact term used many, many times by early settlers and those traversing the Oregon trail who were quite literally savaged by them.
After you've read a bit, get back to me, please!

Would you like it if your home became the "frontier" and someone took it by force? Wouldn't you fight back - or would you just "wake up"?
NO, I would not but there are some things that are inevitable whether I "like" it or not. It was inevitable that all the JEWS died in Messina in 70 AD, but I don't "like" it. If they had just "woken up" and discerned that the immense boot of the Roman Empire was to come down on 300 people they may have emigrated to . . . Russia or China or. . .
The fact is those left of the American Indian tribes by the end of the 19th century DID actually discern the large boot of those THEY had ravaged was coming for them. They stayed on the reservation in the face of overwhelming odds. . .
inevitable odds.
Exactly! Amazing how people can rationalize 'might is right' as okay, even if it is immoral.
I think the Comanche were mostly busy killing off the Apaches. Similarly to the vicious fighting, rape, enslavement, genocide, etc., the various tribes had been perpetrating amongst each other since THEY came here tens of thousands of years earlier. We were just another "invading" tribe - with a twist!
Would that we (our ancestors) had looked upon the natives as people and not as a commodity (a less than) to attempt to destroy or overrule. Inevitable... we just keep on keepin on. Not anything new.
They could also all just go to Jordan, except Jordan probably won't take them, either. None of the Arab countries want to have anything to do with them.
The fighting started when Palestinians were forced to harbor Jewish people of Eastern European descent on their land. I am one of those Eastern Europen descent Ashkenazi people and I can tell you, I am not semitic. And I have no claim to Palestinian lands.
Rule 1 by about 75% of Zionists (not Jewish people) is to kill Palestinians - anything to get them off the land they stole, just like Nazi's wanted rid of Jews. How can you not see how perverted this all is?
If you read the Talmud, there are plenty of references to getting rid of Christians.
How about if we set up a "Jewish" state in part of Germany? -- oh yeah, Germany and most of the European countries wanted nothing to do with the Jews, so by YOUR logic, that proves they are not worthy of respect. Which of course is ridiculous.
Jordanians (population 11.6Million) have their own people to support. Just because you are in favor of the great land theft by Zionists doesn't mean Jordan is able to take in 7.6 Million Palestinians. Just like it would be challenging for the US to take in another 1/2 of it's population - 160M people - from Mexico and Canada. Seriously?
And why would, Mexicans or Canadians, have to move into the U.S. just because someone laid claim to their land based on 3000 years ago - especially when most of those people are not actually from that land!
Finally, if you really feel that 3,000 year old land claims are the default, I assume you will give your land back to one of the American Indian tribes.
Please explain the Ashkenazi/not semitic comment. I've heard this before and still trying to understand it.
I finally did a search and found this from Brave AI:
“Ashkenazi Jews are Semitic, possessing both Levantine genetic origins and a historical connection to Semitic languages like Hebrew and Aramaic. Genetic studies confirm that while Ashkenazi Jews have significant European admixture (particularly in maternal lineages), their paternal lineages are overwhelmingly Middle Eastern, linking them directly to ancient Israel and the Levant.
“Genetic Evidence indicates that Ashkenazi Jews are a diaspora population with a genome that is approximately 40–60% Levantine/Middle Eastern and the remainder primarily Southern and Eastern European.
Linguistic and Historical Context further defines their Semitic identity, as Jews historically spoke and liturgically used Hebrew and Aramaic, which are Semitic languages. Claims that Ashkenazi Jews are not Semitic, such as the discredited Khazar hypothesis or recent political statements by figures like Mahmoud Abbas, are widely regarded by scholars and geneticists as antisemitic canards intended to delegitimize Jewish ties to the Middle East.”
I will second that one!
My entire focus went sideways when I read that.
Whaaaaatt?
Good grief, learn history, the Palestinians are indiginous to the very land they live on, to the land arbitrarily given Zionist Israel… their land was stolen by colonialists including the Ottoman Turks, then the despicable colonialists, the good ole U.K, all because the Palestinians were not strong enough militarily to resist… in short they have taken from them what had been theirs for millennia… at least the Ottoman Turks allowed them to retain a semblance of communal and independent agency…
I have a suggestion, how about as the Palestinians were required to do resulting the 1947/8 U.N resolution the U.S gives up ..oh, say 55% of its territory to all comers, those seeking a better life, those who have been persecuted, especially resulting the countless wars, coups regime changes the U.S has orchestrated and perpetrated since WW2, I mean, why not, if it was good enough for Palestinians and we have a precedent why not … when these new comers arrive they can simply enter a property, be it domestic, rural, commercial, a farm, a business and proceed to kick out the occupiers, the owners claiming it as theirs, we can allow them to roam, armed, to take by force from those who try to defend their property, sounds great, good enough to me, anyone who moans, lock them up, arrest them, no trial and while in custody, rape, sodomise them, torture them, kill any journalist who reports such slights.. they are only slights, nothing serious to worry about, in fact those arriving we can allow to establish laws, laws they enforce with violence against anyone objecting the laws that confirms and legalises new ownership… that ought do it, we have the Israeli model to work from … works for them, good enough over there ought be good enough in the U.S, I think it’s a great solution…
I appreciate Malones efforts but his wires have been crossed, his understanding of the history leaves a lot to be desired, his efforts as noted commendable but lacking …
Fact is U.N resolutions 1948 recognising the Zionist State of Israel the further resolution 1967 that set definitively the borders of Palestine and of Israel, subsequent full UNSC resolutions 1982.
The United Nations General Assembly convened in New York on 13 September 2025 to discuss the decades-long conflict between Israel and Palestine. In a decisive session, member countries voted overwhelmingly in favor of the New York Declaration, a resolution explicitly backing the establishment of a two-state solution.
The United Nations General Assembly convened in New York on 13 September 2025 to discuss the decades-long conflict between Israel and Palestine. In a decisive session, member countries voted overwhelmingly in favor of the New York Declaration, a resolution explicitly backing the establishment of a two-state solution.
The U.N. General Assembly gathered in response to escalating humanitarian and political crises following the October 2023 Hamas attacks and subsequent Israeli military actions in Gaza. Specifically, with tens of thousands killed and famine spreading, state actors sought a binding framework to address violence, humanitarian suffering, and political deadlock….. Note that the resolution is called the New York Declaration. It was co-sponsored by France and Saudi Arabia to set out a pathway for peace centred on recognition of Palestinian statehood.
The New York Declaration passed with broad support. 142 of the 193 member-states voted in favor of the resolution. These countries spanned Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Only 10 opposed and 12 abstained. Opposition came from Israel, the United States, and several allies, while abstaining nations included Albania, the Czech Republic, and Ethiopia. Israel again, as it always has categorically disapproved of the declaration. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated his opposition to Palestinian statehood, reinforcing his and his predecessor’s intransigence and opposition to any form of Palestinian statehood. Israel has been asserting exclusive historical rights over the land, land they occupy illegally.. period.
It must be recalled, the Palestinians were the only people to ever approve post WW2 Jews a home, agreeing to settle survivors of the Camps, however we know Zionists, the Ashkenazi East Europeans, appropriated the horrors of the Camps, the holocaust and used it to further their own nefarious agenda… an agenda that is heavily centric the Theodor Herzl Zionist ideology, the result of which was these Zionists in appropriating the holocaust to cite ad nauseum to defeat any opposition to the ideology espoused, ardently and assiduously followed, the consequences of which many live with presently, including most notoriously in the U.S where AIPAC has secured such an sized influence within the U.S political system, literally owning politicians at the Federal, State and large Urban metropolis level, Zionists and their interests now control U.S media, mainstream and popular (Entertainment), they influence positions that are voted to be filled such as States gubernatorial, Attorneys General, Judgeships, Mayoralty, School Districts.
In fact any position in the U.S is up for grabs, whereby they.. Zionists believe that having influence over the majority can be achieved, achieved by buying, bullying, intimidating and especially blackmailing candidates and those in office, tactics akin and that you’d expect from criminals… criminals like those in organised crime… you’ll find Zionists buying and exerting this influence, much of the statute, law and regulations legislated at Federal, State, Municipal that impact the individual has been written and sponsored by Zionists and Zionist interests… the objective is… dominance, the real goal, global dominance, one world governance, when you consider everything that has impacted you, your nation, the nation, international bodies like the U.N, ICC, WHO, U.S military that has been fighting perpetually in the Middle East since 9/11, indeed there are few truly centric Muslim nations that have not been intimidated, forced, or been subject to coup, regime change all with the objective of ensuring Zionist Israel’s influence and power grows…
Nine eleven, the background to that is highly suspect, the bringing down of building 7, the towers, the events leading up to and preceding highly questionable and in need of answers with many more learned and qualified than I correctly now questioning the entire matter.. however what is interesting is that there is always one side that obfuscates, outrightly lies, denies, stretches the truth, kills with compunction, illegally detains, shoots children, woman, the elderly, no one is safe.. the more death, it seems, the happier the Zionist ghouls tend to be.. a lot to do with their belief structure, the manifesto they adhere unto of Theodor Herzl..
Now, Israel publicly state the next target after Iran that is a danger to Israel is Türkiye, that Pakistan is a terrorist state as well as a sponsor of terrorism.. the same old narrative, trope, rhetoric, different nations, same outcome sought… it’s long past time this nation that gestates death, misery, destruction, that sodomises, rapes, tortures its charges, especially delighting in doing so to children, to health professionals, journalists, woman, many of the aforementioned targeted and killed using the cynical “Daddy’s Home” their “Mowing The Grass” killing Palestinians at regular intervals and even killing their own as they did the hundreds the IDF killed October 7 under theirs, Israel’s Hannibal Directive…Zionist Israel is a nation of Warmonger’s, Regime Change, Assassination, of fomenting Coups, Genocide and of Apartheid laws established against the Semites of the Levant… nothing short of being rapists, sodomists, torturers, murderers, thieves, destroyers of Christian religious sites throughout the Levant, they have bombed synagogues in Tehran, one, the world’s second oldest synagogue… Zionists, despise Jews, Jews who strictly follow the Abramic Faith and who foreswear Zionism… they are sanctuary providers to indicted Criminals including War Criminals but especially sexual deviants indicted and wanted internationally for committing heinous crimes against especially children… who upon arriving at the Israeli border can claim citizenship by simply declaring they are Zionists, note, not Jewish but claiming to be Zionist… says it all really.. understand your true enemy, be informed, global opposition is not against Judaism, never has been, it’s against this Zionist agenda… there is a difference, subtle but oh so real, therefore I urge you all to read the history of this despicable abomination.. understand the difference between Zionism and Judaism…
However I reinforce that Zionism is not Judaism, never ever has been and never will be.. just saying

Since January 2023, 45 Palestinian communities have been fully displaced across the West Bank due to settler attacks and related access restrictions, including nine communities in 2026.
https://www.ochaopt.org/content/humanitarian-situation-report-23-april-2026
Access to Water:
According to the Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Cluster, access to water and sanitation services across the West Bank remains constrained due to ongoing settler violence, movement restrictions, demolitions, and damage to infrastructure, particularly in the northern West Bank, Masafer Yatta in Hebron governorate, and other herding communities residing in Area C.
Yeah, frontier logic doesn't justify these atrocities. What Hamas did, though, on October 7th, was horrific!

Report Confirms Israel Ordered ‘Hannibal Directive’ During October 7 Response....
A report published by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz on Sunday confirmed that the Israeli military implemented a secretive procedure known as the “Hannibal directive” during the response to the October 7 Hamas attack on southern Israel.
The directive allows Israeli forces to prevent Israelis from being taken hostage, even if that means putting their lives in danger or by killing them. The directive had historically only applied to soldiers, but it was also used on Israeli civilians during the October 7 response.

https://www.informationliberation.com/?id=64524
Maybe it can be justified as a war strategy with soldiers themselves, but not civilians.
Correct, the civilians are treated as the pawns in the game of power.
????? WTF, why should indigenous Palestinians be forced to leave ancestral lands that can be traced back to their having lived upon and occupied going back millennia… here’s a thought, how about indiginous Indians telling Americans who stole their land, genociding tens of millions of native Indians to just f..k off.. literally, you, your mother your brats and BBQ… f..k off. Bet you’d go willingly, at least Palestinians haven’t in millennia sans the days of Samson, genocided anyone…
Thinking such as you espouse is the problem, the Zionist genocidal, rapist, sodomising, torturing, targeters of children, sexual deviants with a egregious propensity for sexually abusing children, a state construct that provides sanctuary to known indicted criminals both War and especially sexual, who are internationally indicted for crimes against children, some of the most salacious and worst imaginable.. pedophiles.. given and granted sanctuary at the Zionist border, merely by turning up and pledging fealty to this turgid state… Isteal/Israel a state that has never abided any U.N resolution for the dual state, that has contrived and orchestrated division, assassinated politicians that supported such, that swear they will never accept international will passed numerous UNSC resolutions, resolutions that defined the borders, borders paid no heed unto by this sociopathic psychotic state, whose populace overwhelmingly (82%) at last poll countenance and endorse such vile behaviour and policy… that now suggest Turkey, Pakistan must be dealt with after Iran… my advice F..k the lot of them, Zionists, evil f..ks, that’s not to conflate Judaism with the evil that is founder Theodor Herzl’s wet dream and hard on… in short, they, Zionists are despicable people, humanity would be better off without them… indeed at the rate they are endearing themselves to humanity, it won’t be long… and finally to anyone screaming anti semite, this that… no one gives a continental or a flying f..k any more, bleat as much as you like, just more blah, blah, blah… Zionist bull shitzen… just saying

International observers, human rights organizations, and legal bodies conclude that Israeli settler violence in the West Bank is not a collection of random, isolated acts, but a systematic mechanism of territorial expansion and forced displacement.

Probably true, but as Dr Malone explained well, the results (violent dispute and acquisition) would likely be similar. In the American analogy, settlers wanted land, or a new life, or?? Went out and got it and fought to hold it. I expect he same has been happening in the West bank with or without government involvement. Government involvement might speed up the progression, and might actually make it less bloody. Whether palestinians like it or not the jewish people were given back their ancestral homeland, and in the process of two wars not only kept it, but expanded it (control) when attacked by several countries that bordered them. Acquisition and retention of territory is a natural result of war, like it or not. I fully expect land to be retained by Russia in the final end of the Ukraine war.
Their conclusion is obviously correct!
I agree with you Mark! The same foreign meddling and money "gifts" are unnecessarily prolonging the war in Ukraine.
Amazing body of work! You have been able to break down a very complicated subject and help educate those of us who only listen to news accounts. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this fantastic series. Very eye opening and educational. Each reader can arrive at their own conclusions. In my case the series has solidified my primary thoughts while giving much food for thought in other areas I hadn't thought to consider.
It's obvious you both have a heart that seeks to understand... and your readers benefit greatly from your experience and detailed research.
Again, many thanks!
I will second that one.
My understanding of the term Palestinian is that it is the remnant of a self-imposed diaspora of Arab residents who refused to accept assimilation into the newly formed state of Israel. Appears their progeny are no more tolerant and so to attempt their inclusion seems a bad idea
you hit it right on the HEAD!
BAM.
Remember that there were many Jews in the neighboring countries prior to 1948. After Harry Truman recognized Israel as a state at 6:11pm on May 14th, 1948, literally 11 minutes after the Nation of Israel was formally established by the United Nations at 6pm. Truman’s entire foreign policy team was against this idea. Truman and Trump have been the greatest American friends to Israel since 1948. After Israel was established, many Jews were expelled from surrounding nations and they lost their ancient homelands in Egypt, Jordan, Syria, etc… and many came to Israel. Displaced peoples went both ways. The British left the same day and the surrounding Arab nations attacked Israel beginning the first Arab/Israeli War. You can still see the valley between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem where the Arabs would shoot at the trucks bringing supplies to Jerusalem , and several museums of the blown up trucks are made into monuments along the side of the highway. It was a ‘turkey shoot”. Israel had no armored vehicles so they welded steel plates to delivery trucks and many men died tying to feed the families and fellow Israelis in Jerusalem.
It is ironic that as soon as Israel was established, Jews were kicked out of so many places; yet those same nations that expelled them are the loudest in complaining how the Jews flooded in to the only place left for them to go.
As I remember my history, USSR was a strong supporter for the creation of Israel and for that (?) we initially opposed it.
And then they switched quickly to supporting the Arab muslim monarchies.
And then became one of the nations that expelled the Jews.
Arabs will always want to Jews. Their children are taught from birth that their only destiny is to kill Jews and Christians. No 100,000 word analysis will change that simple equation. And it will soon be happening here in America if we don’t stop the Muslim takeover of our cities.
To accomplish that must first reverse takeover of our judicial system by woke clowns
They are working on it... Infiltrating govt is one of the 8 forms of jihad (former radical Muslim Isik Abla interview). What is terrifying now is that they are rapidly succeeding. I didn't think I'd ever see Islam in our govt offices, especially after 9-11... and yet there are now hundreds+, from local offices on up to federal reps.
The muslim infiltration into our government began during Obama's reign. Valerie Jarrett, whose parents were both active in the muslim brotherhood, was instrumental in the muslim brotherhood infiltration. Obama policy was the direct result of the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood in Minnesota concentration of Somalians and the arab concentration in Dearborn Michigan.
Obama started it. The others that have come upon the scene are merely continuing the effort. I just wonder when WE THE PEOPLE are going to counter the effort.
Obama stated right up front that he wanted to "fundamentally change America". I was one of only a handful that was alarmed.
They’ve already made Dearborn a no go zone
If anyone wishes to hear what the Arabs say, translated into English, then look at

Your work preparing these series is very much appreciated. They have been thought provoking, to say the least. Enjoy your time back home. You two deserve a rest.
Very enlightening. Thank you.
Modern version of the Wild Wild West where the white man's push to control the land west of the Mississippi was to contain and control the American Indian, which has been sequestered on the poorest land in the West. In Arizona, the Gila River Indians are clawing back their share of water rights. A never ending struggle.
Thank you Doc’s. I am now much more informed and smarter than I ever was about this subject. You both did excellent work here. I’d suggest Pulitzer but you don’t work for WAPO or the NY Times.
James, truth!
These in-depth essays are excellent. But I do think the risk of selection bias is real. Especially for two "thought leaders" whose opinions would be highly important to either side. I suggest you make another trip, this time hosted by the Palestinians, to balance out the information you are processing.
I could do that if offered
Have armed security with you.
my very first thought too.
I think if you contacted Max Blumenthal, he would help arrange it. And I agree it is extremely important. As for the comments about safety. There are multiple YouTubers who have posted their trips to/with Palestinians and they have been treated very well. I will say that the best neighbor my parents had in the Bay Area is Palestinian and my last name is Jewish. The assumption of some of your readers about Palestinians is disheartening.
What I have read, when Palestinians are few or in the minority, they are very nice. However, when they start to outnumber the Infidels, they are not so nice.
I believe the reference is to danger from settlers.
Your comment is offensive. Some of us do have first-hand knowledge and of more than one or two, and your youtube videos. How childish.
You're right, some of us have first-hand knowledge that make your comment childish. The Bolsheviks, Holodomor are just a couple that come to mind.
Problem there is they would receive no factual information, only lies. Fortunately, the doctors know the difference. Waste of their precious time. Don't we hear enough of their propaganda daily? Too much.
I have Israeli friends. They sent me pix and videos a month or so after October 7th. Too horrible to share or keep.
Did they also send you pictures of the 6,000 dead/maimed Palestinians during the peaceful marches of 2018/2019? Snipers hiding behind a rock on their side of the fence having target practice.
Not sure where your info comes from. The UN and the global news media lie because they want all Jews dead. Jews have had several Holocaust type events in their 4000 year history. Including ancient Persia with the Persian King Ahasuerus (Xerxes 1) Queen Esther (Haddassah), her Uncle Mordechai, and Haman in the 5th century BC. If there was a genocide today in Israel, then why does the population of Muslims keep increasing in the State of Israel? Gaza is part of Egypt, not Israel. Egyptians don’t want so called ‘Palestinians’ because they are often terrorists. No muslim nation wants them. Obama launched the Arab spring with his destruction of Ghadafi in Libya . This switched on the Muslim Brotherhood attacks on Egypt and they had a civil war between the Egyptian government and the Muslim brotherhood. This is why Egypt wants nothing to do with so called ‘Palestinians’. The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in Cairo in the late 1920’s as a reaction to the destruction of of the Ottomon Califate in WW1 by British forces. General Allenby freed what we call Israel and after that came the British Mandate, the partition of the area into the Transjordan and Israel. Learn some history sir.
What is left out of the extensively researched, thoughtful and illuminating series is that Israel is dealing with a people who would not cede 1 foot of land to them under any circumstances because they are not followers of Islam. History does not matter to them and they would willingly destroy all trace of it to get their way, as we have seen. Why not view the October 7 videos they made. They deserve a state? Such barbarism should be condemned and punished, not rewarded. Go find one of them who disagrees with what they did to innocent people on October 7th. Even if the victims were not innocent, such barbarism is unknown outside of Hitler's camps and should never be employed on any form of life. We live during a very strange time. Everything is upside down. People have lost their moral compass, lost their humanity. And you are worried about their fight over a piece of land the size of New Jersey when they already occupy a vast region and beyond.
You mean like raping and killing women in front of their small children? Or cooking their babies in microwave ovens?
Nobody wants to talk about it. It is not polite. It should be broadcast worldwide for all to see what they did to innocent people. The indoctrinated students should be force fed these videos. Maybe they would not be so eager to destroy our country afterwards.
This is a situation where bias itself is fluid
Dr. Malone , I love reading your emailed notes but they are quite long to read. Is there any chance you could record them so we can listen to them in the car , etc. Respectfully . Marcel Cesar MD
Yes, I will try to do it regularly.
We have water issues right here that are troubling. Every land does. Our situation with water use reminds me of the notion that timber was so plentiful that there could be no end to logging. Then there was the buffalo; so many that near extinction couldn't be a problem. Oh, then there was the beaver, whose instinct to work for nature was overlooked and thwarted to this day. The endless supply of fish, including the whale, was gorged upon (the oil) with little consideration except for the native peoples. Take an indigenous people out of their familiar setting, with all the faults and shortsightedness included, and there is a fracture that splits the psyche. Bring in a people who have lost the connection with nature for too long and there is an element of discordance that is almost impossible to heal. And here we are.
And then there was the passenger pigeon, whose passing actually changed forests and fields.
You do know what became of many of the buffalo, yes? Shot from trains by settlers moving west—a deliberate policy to destroy the food source of the Indigenous peoples.
Drs Malone: thank you so much for another exceptional educational series! So many of us here in America really do not have a true understanding of this situation. I sure didn’t! Many issues are hard for me to comprehend but this helps! I want to understand and I questioned Tucker Carlson’s reports and interviews, and was disappointed in his attacks on Huckabe! Especially after reading Mike’s accounts of the situation. Who to believe? I know my answer. It is obvious the two of you put much thought and effort into this series. Thanks again!
Wow after reading all that, why in the world would we think that we could fix this?
Indeed.
The stinky can of worms laid out so very thoroughly and without favoring the mixed content. I am again in awe.
I can't help feeling distraught at the long, so very often violent clashes of the two populations. It IS so reminiscent of our own history of settlements.
There is no perfect, no one side is the favored in my mind. Yes, I abhor terrorist bullies and their slogans, doctrines, hate. It is not the countries these haters occupy which are the problem. It is the cancer of the occupiers who work, turning the body of the uneducated, frightened population, to be absorbed into their invading ugly cells. I, myself, will not add hate of a civilization on my docket. I will not look at the present as only having 1 right side of humanity, in this difficult situation. Who is on the correct side of God's law? I am Not the one to decide that.
We can look back on the history of this cruel saga to date and see it is not going well. We can hear cries of suffering and hate on both sides. We do not and can not know the future. We can only plan and think carefully about our reactions to it as it is coming, possibly to a city near us soon.
Pain, suffering, hate, cruelty, terrorist rule of law, dictatorship, vindictiveness, slavery or torture of captured. All this is decided by a few and accepted (woe unto us) by the many. I hope I am brave enough, if and when the time should arrive, to not succumb.
As I see divisions within us all I have to remind myself that our real enemy is not of flesh and blood. Sad really.
