Arab Israelis: What country do you tell people you are from? Israel or Palestine? 

Hello to my Arab Muslim brothers from around the world. Sending love from a Jew in Israel

I think that the answer most Israeli Arabs would give when asked abroad has a lot to do with avoiding conflict and/or their safety and much less with politics/ideology. BTW some Israeli Jews who have other citizenship prefer to avoid saying Israel when in countries where people are not so friendly to Israel.

The only Arab Israeli I ever met was in Thailand. He said it was all politics and that he would not want his family to live anywhere except Israel. That surprised me.

When I was teaching in the Netherlands, I had an Arab girl in my class who was from Bethlehem and she would always say "Israel". Whenever she talked about going back to her family, she would say "in Israel" , whenever she talked about shopping "in Israel". I'm not sure she had an Israeli passport or not. She was muslim but would not wear a headscarf either.

There will be peace one day.. but we need the Italians to help. We need pizza, pastas, live football matches..

Corey you should consider investing in some microphones. This could be a really great channel for people learning both Arabic and Hebrew if the sound quality was better.

The Arabs of Israel seem much more happy

Very interesting question. Thank you Corey.

Wow, on many levels, one your most interesting videos!

As an American, when I would travel abroad, especially to the Middle East, if people asked where I was from, I would say "Canada." No one ever has a problem with Canadians.

I love these videos... so informative

The Arab Israelis I meet would usually mention they are Palestinians.

Wow, the responses are overall very positive. These Arabs show a positive attitude similar to mine (a huge minority in my country), accepting the national identity instead of denying it. They speak pretty good Hebrew too! I wouldn't know if they were Arabs had they not mentioned.

That’s an interesting question, as my Palestinian friend who lives in Europe refers to her home as Israel and says “We are going to Israel this summer”. She sometimes also says “Israel/Palestine”.

The question is genial! Just those double subtitling is confusing. But the other questions (surveys, videos) are more than excellent!

I used to work guy together in a shop in the United States that speaks Arabic and Hebrew. When he saw an Arab, he was Palestinian. When he saw another white man, he saying I'm a jews I was very surprised so I couldn't tell what he really is

I ❤️ you’re videos

Thanks man, great vid! I'm learning from your vids about the Isreali world. God bless you

Love the message at the end!

Fascinating! Thank you for sharing!

It's time we accept Israel as a reality of the middle east , so many Arabs live their as patriotic citizens , I am a Pakistani and I see no harm in accepting Israel , ofcourse I would want the Palestinians to get what they want as well , but in order to support Palestinians I think it is important we first accept Israel so a mutual trust can develop

Thanks for your videos man , i appreciate it a lot :)

Amazeingxxxx video very interesting spoke very good ivrit than i ever did xx

I used to work aboard in sales. Me being a tall white Russian Israeli, people never guess me for a Jew/Israeli. During my work I would meet many Arab Israeli tourists and strike up a conversation with them, just for fun, never revealing my true identity. 10/10 times they would identify themselves as Arab Israelis and tell me they’re from Israel.

Kudos to those who are trying to make things better on both sides.

I don't know if Corey has another job, but man he would make an amazing tour guide! Humour, knowledge... he'd be perfect!

Very hopeful video thank you

When they say they are Arab Israeli , it implies, they recognized Israel and are part of it.

just a general question about the videos: why are subtitles always actively added on when the video already contains subtitles itself? at least on smartphone

So, Arab women in Israel won't let you record them because of their religion and family, but you have no problem recording them in the west bank which I would assume would be more religious than Israel?

I'm from Kuwait & I met a lot of Israeli Arab in Thailand, Madrid. when I or other Arabs asked them where you from? They reply immediately from Palestine 😁 But when they speak with non Arab specially those who are in Europe, their answer is from Israel 😅 Actually I have Israeli Arab friends traveled from Israel to Australia then they travel again to Middle East to visited me in Kuwait but with their Australian passports 😁 What I understand from my Arab Israeli friends, they don't mind to say they are from Israel but the main problem to them is when non Israeli thinks that country is for Jews only.

Maybe there is some bias in the answers since the question is most often posed in Hebrew?

I feel sad for the beautiful guy since 5:40 who can't say in other countries he is a palestinian living inside Israel without being afraid of violence in those countries.

Finally someone showing things as they are.

Love your videos

Anyone who lives in Israel and dosen't consider himself an Israeli is more then wellcome to get the hell out of here .

I asked this same question to Arab Israeli friends. Some say Israel. Some say it depends where they are or who is asking (they say Israel or Palestine). One has said she's from Jordan because it's just easier and she won't be forced to explain her identity. And another one said, the safest is to say he's from Holy Land.

nice project

My Grandparents, WWII generation, had an Arab Israeli family as neighbors in Oklahoma. I cannot remember the Patriarch's name, but when the coffee and cigarettes were flowing, nothing was better than sitting and listening to them bond deeply over solving the world's problems. There's a lot of love between our families.

I once met a jewish Israeli in Cairo, and he said all his friends told him he was crazy to go there. But he didn't run into problems with anyone at all.

Corey can you team up with the creator of Nas Daily?

They were all pretty rational. It is the ones who give them trouble ....

Corey, why don't you turn on ads in your videos?

COREY!! WE LOVE YOU!! WE WANT YOU TO STAY AMONGST US, doing just what you do!!!! I understand that you are not religious. I understand that it is hard to think clearly when you hear all that you do all day with your great reviews and interviews!! I don't feel it's creepy that the women didn't want to speak out! With everything that happened on October 7th??? I am glad the women stayed out of it!!! Atleast, 6 years ago, in THIS video, so long ago, when we had no clue what would happen in the future!!! YOU were true from the beginning! Keep spreading the word!!! Am Yisrael Chai!!

well guys .... i disagree with the video based on my experience . am originally Jordanian ... i met while am studying in the Yarmook university in Jordan many Palestinians who come to study here , maybe more than 100 of them... all of them told me they are "Arab 48" non of them says they are Arabs of israel . i think they believe that they belong to Palestine not Israel.

ask plaestinians: If there was Peace, two autentic states (palestine and israel) and you were born in akko what would you prefer to be, palestinian or israeli?

Hello to all my muslim brothers and sisters 😊♥️. I dont care if your Palestinian or Israeli we should all love eachother. There are many israeli jewish arabs and we get along with arabs fine I get along better with muslim arabs then Ashkenazi jews. May all of us have peace 🙏🏽. For the arab muslim Israelis thank u for supporting Israel we love you

4:40 I find the idea of paying Jordanians with Shekel very interesting. It's something that often happens when a poorer country is right next to a richers one. For example, when I was in Thailand we took a small detour into a market across the river in Laos, where you could buy everything in Thai Bahts, despite Laos having its own currency.

I am under the impression that most arab Israelis are quite satisfied with their israeli citizenship.

Most Arab Israelis actually love their country very deeply, they just can't say that out loud because I guess that would be considered "politically incorrect" on so many levels.

Hi, your videos subtitle appears twice.

Just a week ago I was traveling in Eastern Europe and met someone that looked Arab and people were asking her where she is from, she was saying “Israel”, probably to avoid any potential ignorance - some guy told her “oh, yeah, Jerusalem, the Holy City”. You could see how uncomfortable she was with all the questioning

this interview is excellent ; like your other interviews on your channel. BUT , regarding your comment at the end about arab girls and women who refused to share in your interview ; you had already many women participated in other interviews done on your channel before .......... so , it is not that culture or men ban them to say their opinion or to show on video ............ it is mostly because they were not interested in participation in such critical question............... maybe if you had some more time , you could find women who may participate ...... like those who participated in other interviews on this channel.

good video but your last comment was beyond rude. you really shouldn't be telling women what to do. those women were probably trying to come up with an excuse not to be in your video.

2nd guy (not shown) was AMAZING!!

As a Muslim woman, I can say I am offended by your written comment at the end of the video. It is extremely ignorant and insulting. It is no problem in our religion to film but you need to respect if a woman does not want her picture taken or video taken. It is just human decency. Please do not write insulting comments. It would help if you stop and listen to understand us instead of throwing stereotypes at us.

I love our Israeli Arabs both Muslims and Christians. One day the world will celebrate them for their bravery. Really kind and warm people. Zionism is for BOTH Arabs and Jews and all other Israelis.

لما نقول خونه وباعو القضيه نقصد هذول حسبي الله ونعم الوكيل وجيهم بارده

I have a few different questions to ask the Israelis. How would they feel if they were in the Palastinian's shoes. Do they feel they are being treated well.If so would they trade places with the Palastinians. How would they improve their situation. . Lastly why do many think that Palastinians deserve harsh treatment because of what happened in Europe. To Palastinians, in light of what happened would they sympathize with their fellow humans and find accommodation and common ground without resorting to violence.It would interesting to know the answers.

ضاعت القضية (الكضية) 🐸😂😂😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

They can't mention the word "Israel" in Egypt. Sure glad we signed a peace treaty with those bnai....

Funny how many interviewed could easily pass for Jewish,especially the last one

Dudes here so much more chilled out than palestinians in the west bank

To say I’m an Israeli of Palestinian ethnicity, nothing wrong with that

loving the generalization about muslim men/women there at the end .. being a Muslim woman from a Muslim majority country myself i'm fed up with hearing about how opressed we supposedly are --'

hawttie at 6 mins THANKS COREY more eye candy pls!

I don't get it. What's the difference between saying "I'm a Palestinian", "I'm from Palestine", "I'm an Arab Israeli", "I'm a Palestinian from Israel" and "I'm an Arab from 1948"? Aren't they all the same? I'm neither Jewish, nor Muslim, nor Arab, so I genuinely don't know. I'm just curious. And why 1948?

Can you do a video of you asking Israeli arabs that if a palestinian state happened in the west bank would they go live there as palestinians or continue as israelis?

How can i learn hebrew ?

You cant say arab men tells their wife to not be filmed there are many who just dont want to be filmed haha it has noting to do with islam

My Passport is American, But i don't consider myself American nor do i have any type of "Pride" or happiness about it. I'm a Son of Spain, Andalusia

The message at the end is why I love Corey !!!

As someone who lived in Turkey and who is also Turkish, I've never heard or seen anyone criticize an Israeli, and although we may seem like we're against Israelis or Jews, in reality we are not. I can't put a meaning behind why Israelis hesitate to say that they're Israelis in Turkey, trust me, nothing bad will happen.

respecting different cultures doesn't mean enforcing our views. if modest women don't want to be filmed expressing political opinions, we should respect that.

im surprised tbh, as a palestinian-australian, i never imagined a palestinian identifying as israeli

I would like to marry that handsome guy that’s called Ahmed, thanks bye😂💖

7:55 lol

Pre 1948 Palestinians were both Jews and Arabs who lived in Palestine. If you are an Arab Israeli you’re as much a Palestinian as a Jewish Israeli is, which is not at all. You are simply Israeli, be proud of that.

Your work is very important

Hello I am subscriber of your channel Iwant you to ask the palstinene what you suffered from the israeli occupation

I think that overall the video is very good and educative but the message at the end portrays a very one-sided opinion. I am Muslim myself and nothing in my religion prevents me from standing up for what I believe in and having a voice. But overall I think we should respect their choice and avoid using words such as "creepy" just because it is not the norm of the society we live in.

I'm starting to understand hebrew by watching your videos XD

They can say they from Palestine but this is not a real place…

“We live within the reality that exists.” Palestinians and settlers and the Israeli right should try that.

Nobody should feel ashamed or guilty to say where is he from no matter where he s going

يا سواد الوجه منك الو 😑

7:55 wdym u can speak with them. It’s not like they cant

"Even in Egypt, Jordan and TURKEY? " Turkey isn't in the same category. Both countries had war with Israel, turkey didn't.

I guess he only put the ones who said they are 'Israelis' there... No doubt to be honest... Its impossible that non of the ones he asked said or even claimed they are Palestinians

You’re doing. Great job brother. Interesting question. I only have love for them only the governments are to blame for the conflict.

brothers if they say they are palestinians and u film them and put it on youtube what do u think is gonna happen....u think they are happy.

It's nice to notice that Corey has been able to find more women willing to be filmed, after this video.

That young Arab Israeli with the glasses was cool like how he was aware of the opportunities he has and how he's lucky compared to the people of West Bank

I actually live in the north side of israel and i have 3 arab friends and we smoke weed together next to tiberius also i played games when i was a teen and i had a friend from kuwait i played with for 3 years streight hes prob the best friend i had in my entire life im jewish i belive in the torah not the story but the methaphors shlomos coffin extera the mitzvot my coulture i savor the sabath and i strongly believe in my countrys tanhi higher symbol

מי האדם ששואל את השאלות האלו?

This video is very fucking sad , I don't really care about the old people I care for the young generation , and how they forget Palestine as a case.

I am a Jew in England, a Christian country. I saw I am English, not a "Israeli living in England". I think its ridiculous to say you're a "Palestinian living in Israel", and shows a lack of respect to the country where these people are obviously richer than me.

A Palestinian is just an Arab who lives in the so-called Palestinian territories. Any Arab settler from Arabia or another land that was conquered by Arabs, including the modern-day states of Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco, etc. can settle in the West Bank and call himself Palestinian.

I thought that the thumbnail is Thiago A 😂

Do Arabs live in West Bank or Gaza strip have right to obtain citizenship of Israel?
