Why am I still a refugee? UNRWA makes you a refugee for life, and will pass the status to your children.

Settlement. . . . - "The settling or establishment of a person or a group of people, as in a new region or in a business". the settlement never belonged to the Jews. They manipulate their bible to justify, steal, and manipulate. That's why stereotypes exist, it wouldn't be a stereotype if it wasn't true.

Nice video good job bro

@kamshong

@

4:37 whatever he told is absolutely right and except for the part that all religions pray to the same God. God told Christians to judge righteously. Also Israel has always been there before the existence of Palestine.

What occupation? Gaza was theirs!

I support Israel, I’m not against Palestinians , I am against Hamas . This is the outcome of war unfortunately , Hamas are nothing but terrorists and are using the Palestinian people as cannon fodder and something to hide behind . They are cowards . As a Brit I’ll recognise Palestine but I will support Isreal over Hamas any day of the week . Hamas need to be destroyed end off

@caljason4083

@

They were offered a state twice why didn’t they take it? Iran and its proxies including Hamas vowel to eliminate all Jews it’s in their charter too. They say one thing for the camera and behave differently off cameras. Expose their charter by asking them questions the exposes their root problem. Why did they spend 20 years building tunnels with aid money instead of focusing on building a state?

Lex, we know which side you are on! Palestine will be free!

What did the Palestinians do?

@viadharmawheel

@

Is ukrania the Arabic word for Ukraine or is it a particular dialect from Palestinians? It has a cool sound to it

@Oprahshusband

You have to wait for water because your leaders decided that’s what your worth

@anthonyfay361

@

Can't wait to see a similar video with lex talking to Israelis

@fyukfy2366

@

1:21 and people wonder why Israel insists on showing its strength

@fyukfy2366

@

What I saw on October 7 2023 wasn’t resistance, that was terrorism. I’d maybe have a little more faith in Palestinians if they could openly admit that!

@DiIzac

@

yes, Palestinians are against Jews and Israelis. That is why they voted for Hamas and why Oct 7 was created. You lost your land and home because Palestinians and Israelis cannot live together. I don't know whose fault that is, all I know is that it can't go on. So if you can't live together, don't. Live somewhere else and finally end this hideous war.

@MR-op3mo

@

I wonder if that guy and his 7 kids are still alive.

@GunsNBudder

@

This aged good... Lex can you sleep in peace?

@srec539

@

Well Hamas just destroyed any chance of peace after Oct 7th. The Jewish people won't forgive or forget.

@londonislost

@

Lex thanks for sharing. This is one of my favorite videos. It really shows what the Palestinians want. At the end of the day we are all human and we just want to live in peace. Also, the last guy with the tea is pretty famous, he was on the Conan O'brien show and it was one of the funniest episodes Ive ever seen. Lets stay positive and hope for a better future.

Where are you Lex? Why did you even interview these people when all you do now is pussyfoot around their issues? Collar Israel!

@TheEccentricLad

@

Someone will evict you from your house and they will declare you terrorist for opposing! This is what Palestinians are experiencing.

@uplift_uzb

@

I’ve seen so many Jewish and Israeli people getting love in Palestine from the locals. If this was the other way around, and a Muslim Palestinian did this, crazy Zionist Israeli settlers would have killed him.

Everytime I want to see hope I come watch this video....Really shows the media vs the reality we are taught

@DanRikkou-p4y

@

Look at their smiles and positivity even after being under brutal military occupation for 76 years now. Palestinians are truly resilient. Free Palestine and justice for Palestinians

@asmaasaber2946

@

Smart and handsome people.

@bxba4589

Makes me feel very sad to see this today and know what has happened. Truly atrocious and beyond unacceptable in 2025 or ever

@ryanmiles6344

Well done mate :)

this video was filmed 2 months before 7th october...

Thank you for sharing informative free Palestine 🇵🇸 free humanity

“We want to destroy this wall. You come to me, I come to you.”
That’s the only solution, one state with equal rights for everyone

@AgitpropPsyop

@

This Palestinian dude has gotta be dumb as all hell. Claims that Ukrainians deserve it, but somehow he doesn't "deserve it" because he didn't personally invade Israel on the 7th? Does he think that the half million Ukrainian casualties deserve it? The millions kidnapped and chased from their cities with missiles and artillery? Civilians and children of Bucha? Thank you for bringing these videos to our attention, so we can understand how the Palestinians on the ground actually think and feel. I will no longer be supporting or donating to Palestinian causes. Godspeed. May justice prevail.

At the end of the video, that’s the same exact guy who appears and gives Conan O’Brien tea in his video when he visits the West Bank

@midnight_pupil

@

The Christian priest had the most peaceful message. Ironically America is a Christian country supporting the atrocities.

@GotaGiran

@

Watching this on july 2025 just makes me sad, no justice in this world, humans are not capable of it
