This is an interesting topic with People claiming that Israel has always been Israel or Judea . Winners get to name conquered Nations whatever they want

Caveat up front: This response does not advocate for Islamic-based terrorism nor does it advocate for Jewish-based extremism. Response to this documentary: As this documentary is supposed to represent a "Jewish" based resistance movement, you should use a future historical Jewish resistance group names that did exist, such as the Haganah, Irgun, and Lehi. The Haganah were known by the British occupation forces in Palestine, which occupied Palestine after pushing out the Ottomans with the help of the Arabs (i.e. Lawrence of Arabia, a British intel officer based in British occupied Egypt, helped to coordinate and inspire the Arabs to counter the Ottoman rule of the area), from 1917-Feb 1948. The Haganah were an unofficial militia of the Palestinian Jewish population, but the use of the word "Palestine" was loosely used, as the area also included Trans-Jordan (French occupied) which now is called Syria and Jordan, while "Palestine" is now Israel and Lebanon. Iraq and Iran were also incorporated with some of the Arab movement to oust the Ottomans, but that effort was more "up front" and included British forces (Army Air Force and ground forces), which would later become occupiers of the area and support British Petroleum and American oil Interests (Aramco) after World War II, would also settle in supporting the Shaw of Iran and Saudi Arabia (as the Americans learned how to do oil drilling in the Americas of the late 1800s), further entrenching American interests abroad in the Middle East. The Haganah existed and the British knew it, but it was a laze fair arrangement as the British and French forces didn't have the manpower to keep good security and the Haganah provided intelligence and a militia to "help". Later in the 1940's, as the British and French would be occupied dealing with the Germans, and then the French government capitulated with some French military siding with Germany, the British control became more tenuous, allowing some more extreme members of the Haganah to create the Irgun; apparently some of the Irgun went even more extreme and founded the Lehi. Within the Haganah, by 1941, there were three groups or "divisions" called the Hish, the Him, and the Palmach. The Hish and Him were considered "ok" by British occupation standards of conduct because they were "above ground" and were helping do some legitimate tasks supporting the British, while the Palmach was the "secret" third division, working in the "underground resistance" saving up weapons, cash, food, etc. so when the British finally pulled out in 1948, the Haganah had a reserve force ready to resist Arab attempts to land-grab...they would prove instrumental in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. The Americans and Russians both recognized Israel in the first United Nations Security Council meeting with the Russians thinking (wrongly) that by allowing their Jewish citizenry to flee to the new Israel, they'd be able to let go potential trouble makers; the British did the same thing. Between 1941 and 1948, the Irgun and Lehi were conducting hit-and-run strikes and conducting asymmetric warfare against the British. The British in kind would round up people and send them to the Seychelles in internment camps, similar to what they did to the Boers during the Boer War, incensing the Jewish resistance movements even more, so the Irgun and Lehi grew in numbers and conducted more extreme attacks. The final blow to the British (which helped to "incentivize" their withdrawal) was the bombing of the King David Hotel, the "HQ" of the British, located on the southern coast of the region on the Red Sea. Now that British military bodies were going back home in caskets and WWII was over, the British Parliament took notice and stared negotiating withdrawing from Palestine.
The Levant has been a place where wars have been fought for thousands of years. The Babylonians, Assyrians, Hittites, Greeks, Egyptians, Romans, and others have fought in this area
Has been holy land for many millennia. War occurs everywhere in cycles but that area has never seen much of a break unfortunately. Doesnt look like it will stop in my lifetime but I pray the region settles accirding to Gods plan.
I think humanity's favorite pastime is not sports - it's making war. Being "holy" is essential - that's what makes it worth fighting for. The holier it is, the more blood you have to spill to get it, and then you have to defend it against all the other bloodthirsty "holy warriors". If you're flashing on a bunch of kids playing "king of the hill" then you're understanding this whole dynamic.
@@user-McGiver you'll find Anatolia (Hittite Country) in the Classical age was very much under the Greek sphere of influence & thus part of the European world; it didn't change to a more culturally "Eastern" territory until many centuries later with the invasion of Turkic tribes

@@ripvanwinkle2002 yeah pretty sure their barbarian auxiliaries didnt feel treated equally like Roman citizens, otherwise they would have protected Rome than plunder it when they finally could.
This video sheds light on a fascinating chapter of history, revealing the courage and resilience of the guerrilla fighters who resisted Roman rule in Israel. The storytelling and historical insights are truly engrossing, offering a deeper understanding of this pivotal period.

@@kennybachman35it was Judea. Tribe of Judah was one of the tribes of Israel. Very easy connection. And philistines were from southern Europe , not Arabs. If you want to make bold statements, at least use some common sense.
@@user-McGiver before Palestine was called Palestine by the Romans it was called Pilistu by the Greeks and Peleset by the Sumerians. It means “land from the river to the sea” and has been continuously inhabited by Semitic Palestinians for over 10,000 years.
What differentiates freedom fighters from terrorists is what side you support, whose cause you deem just. And in the hands of revisionist history.. who won in the end.
The ancient kingdom of Israel was long gone by the time the Romans came through; they originally named the province Judaea then agains to Syria Palestine after the Jewish revolts. As for the region all of these provinces are in, it had been known as Judaea, Israel, Palestine and Canaan for many centuries prior to this revolt. Everyone can have at each other now under this comment.

Terrorists......their land was invaded and they fought back how the hell does that make them terrorists.......Romans invaded the UK and took the land from Boudicca after her husband died and she fought back, does that make her a terrorist.......get a grip.
@@JohnSmith-le5oe Let's be fair, the British Celts also massacred a whole ton of civilians at Colchester and London. And I write that as someone who really dislikes the Roman Empire.
@@user-McGiver No we always lived in the land, Jews started immigrating back in mass (Aliya) in the 1800's when it was still controlled by the Ottomans.
@@shanedoesyoutube8001 No this is not true, it was later that the Pharisees sided with the Romans. There was a civil war in Hasmonean Judaea between Aristobulus and Hyrcanus and Antipater (caused by Antipater between the two brothers Hyrcanus and Aristobulus), which brought in the Seleucids, and Nabataeans, and ultimately the Romans. Pharisees, Sadducees, Tobiads (Hellenistic Judaism), Essenes could belong to the Sanhedrin but at that time were just pawns to the Kings, and foreign rulers.
Oppression has never been overcame through following the system by peaceful means. If you oppress a group of people, it creates fear that turns to hatred. To fix the issue you must remove the root cause, the oppressors. We see this happening alot now a days. People rising up against their oppessors
It is truly heartbreaking to consider the incalculable amount of historic war and suffering that could have all been prevented. If only the Romans had vowed to see each task to absolute completion. The thoughts of what could have been, without the instigation of conflict and incitement of hatred to create distraction. Mankind surely would have been far beyond the stars today.
the ''Romans'' were Trojan refugees [the originals, the core of their aristocracy] which means Hittites... Middle Easterners... what did you expect them to do?...
@@user-McGiverhaha, Hittites got conquered by the neo Assyrians who got conquered by the Persians who got conquered by the Greeks lol. Rome are a Latin tribe.
@@Dan-be7iu Some of the ancient Judaeans and Samaritans stayed and converted to Islam, others were expelled or left and returned with their ancient religion and culture and are the Jews. The Truth is both native Palestinians, and Jews who are not converts have DNA from the ancient Shasu/Habiru/Apiru/Hebrews/Israelites/Judeans.
The producers of this documentary really thought they did something with all the heavy handed comparisons of the ancient Sicarii with modern day terrorists, didn't they? If they were sixth formers, fair enough, but this simplistic effort is a bit embarrassing for adults to come up with, let alone the subtlety of a sledgehammer with which they present it.
The Jews never accepted christ because he didn't come with strength to free them and make them the master's over rome. They miss the bigger picture of generations that must come through this experience. God's unfolding glory takes time. Humans hate that in all things. Instant gratification. Instead of long suffering.
As someone who loves history, it is extremely disappointing and disturbing to see the erasure of history in a title. Especially when it is something that may be the only interaction many people will have with this video. Israel was not a place during this time, the Romans attacked Judea. This is truly shameful behavior in the modern age where this information can easily be fact checked *and should have been*. Correct the title to Roman Jerusalem if you must, but do not lie to and mislead the unknowing.

Isn’t it strange how for thousands of years people of various religions and races have hated Jews and we are meant to believe that was antisemitic and Jews didn’t deserve it and they were hated for no reason and no fault of their own. They’ve been kicked out of 109 countries and we are meant to believe that that is the fault of the 109 countries and not the behaviour of the Jewish people in those countries…
I see a lot of ignorance now days. People shouting injustice without knowing the truth.. Arabs came to this area from the Arab peninsula after the foundation of Islam (610 CE) and the Rashidun Caliphate conquest of the levant (634 - 638 CE) and there is no other truth to it
This land always belonged to the Jews,The Chosen People of God. The historical sites show all the places that have been buried and built on by other people. Everything or mostly everything buried and hidden has been uncovered. There's no god like the God of Israel. He's enthroned in heaven and looking down on earth. ❤❤🙏 🙏 🙏 for Israel
The documentaty is really politically oriented, trying to compare people living under violent and oppressive roman rules and Arabs living under Israeli democratic rule while trying to compare people who made targeted assassinations against an occupier with terrorists like Al Qaeda this is really pathetic
The British accent trying to explain the history of Judea / Israel is laughable… comparing the Roman occupation of our Jewish land to the Jewish rule today is a sign of ignorance and stupidity. I do take comfort in the fact that Britain is a few years away from changing it’s name to Britistan- I do hope and pray those “learned” men interviewed in this movie will feel the consequences first. I will never watch another”documentary” from this channel again!

@@ultrajd The standard in the Talmud is that girls can be married and are ready for coitus at the age of three and so are captive slave girls, while boys may be sodomized without penalty between the ages of three and nine. Non-Jewish boys only defile the Jew during sex above the age of 9. Mothers who have sex with their eight-year-old sons are not rendered impure from the act, and girls below eleven years old are prohibited from using contraception during sex. Captive non-Jewish slave girls may be married to priests earlier than three-years-old and the Talmud says the warrior Joshua tested slave girls' virginity by inserting bottles of wine into them, though he was supposed to test them for "dropsy" instead.
al qaeda fights for fanaticism. the Sicarii (actually pronounced Sik-ar-ee-aye) were fighting for their FREEDOM. big difference. this video has vague undertones of antisemitism lmao

@@patriotpioneer Had my reply removed even though it violated none of the community guidelines and then posted a response........sounds like the facts offend you dont they? I have told you guys time and again to quit getting your information from hate-sites, to get both sides of the story and look at sources. Once again most Jews dont care about color, race, etc, What they care about is culture, are you culturally Jewish. Ethiopian Jews are Jews, in religion and culture, and have been ruled so by the Israeli government, and Rabbinate. Jews are Olive, Tan, White, Black, Brown, Yellow and Red in color. Half of the Israeli population is mixed between Ashkenazic, Sephardic, and Mizrahi groups. It is all good. Here are the facts and numbers on Ethiopian Jews immigrating to Israel (Aliyah) from the "Times of Israel", and "United Israel Appeal" In 2015 it was reported the number of Jews in Ethiopia were 4,000.[16] In April 2016, the Israeli Government approved a plan to bring 9,000 Falashmuras to Israel over the course of five years. 1,300 were scheduled to arrive in June 2016.[17] On 11 March 2021, 300 Ethiopian Jews went up to Israel,[18] the last of 2,000 Jews from Operation Tzur Israel which began in December 2020.[19] On 1 June 2022, 180 Jews from Ethiopia made Aliyah to Israel as part of Operation Zur Israel to reunite 3,000 Jews in Ethiopia with their brethren in Israel.[21] On July 5, 2022, 150 Jews from Ethiopia made Aliyah to Israel as part of Operation Zur Israel.[22] As of 14 June 2022, 500 Jews from Ethiopia made Aliyah to Israel.[23] On February 1, 2023, 95 Jews from Ethiopia made Aliyah to Israel.[24] On May 9, 2023, 111 Jews from Ethiopia made Aliyah to Israel.[25]
@@patriotpioneer,@Korleone223 Had my reply removed again! Does the truth/facts hurt or merely offend you? Nothing I said violates RU-vids community guidelines. Most Jews dont care about color, it is not as important as culture. The majority of Jews in Israel are originally from the Middle East and North Africa, then comes Eastern, Western Europe, East Africa, South Asia, and the Americas. Ethiopian Jews have the right of return which is why the majority live in Israel (about 80%), with less than 10% living in Eritrea/Ethiopia/Sudan. Israel 160,500 (2021)[1] Ethiopia 12,000 (2021)[2] United States 1,000 (2008)[3] There are different Jewish cultures, but as long as they are Jewish.....we are good. This is proven historically, Archaeologically , etc.

There was no name Palestine at that time, it was and is Israel, and Judea and Samarea, Palestine came after the exile of the Jewish people, don't try to erase the name of Israel while it's existing, you guys are the same as the Romans, no difference, you want to erase Israel and want to replace it by Palestine, but whatever you do, you can't do that, Israel will be Israel until the end time.

@@domgould5113 Wow you had my comment removed even though it violated none of RU-vid's community guidelines! Your biased propaganda and censorship will not change one bit of the historical facts that make up the truth. 1st of all the Jewish people bought most of the private land they live on in Israel/Palestine through Christian and Jewish non-profits (biggest were the Palestine Jewish Colonization Association, Palestine Land Development Company and the Jewish National Fund), from Ottoman officials and rich absentee Arab effendis (look up Sursock purchases). 2nd the majority of the rest of the land was considered "state land" by the Ottomans and British which had no legal owners and was thus owned by the state. When Israel won the subsequent wars of 1948 and 1967 that land became Israel's. 3rd the areas in the West Bank and Gaza that had become depopulated during the war mainly housed Jews that had been forcible evicted from Jewish quarters in the West Bank or Gaza that were controlled or annexed by Egypt and Jordan after the war of 1948, and Jewish refugees who were evicted from Islamic countries after Israel's creation (Farhud in Iraq, riots against the Mellahs of North Africa etc). 3rd Jews are related to the native Palestinians who lived in the land before the large Arab immigration from Egypt and Syria to British Palestine that happened at the same time Jews were immigrating. DNA, Culture and Religion proves that both Palestinians and Jews both share Semitic DNA from the Levant even though we have a lot of admixture from Europe, Africa, and Asia. 4th Muslims and Jews would benefit from a real peace, not a hudna or ceasefire, both belong in this land and if the PA had kept their promises in the Oslo and Wye accords their would be a real peace with two countries right now.
Hs my reply removed, why it violated no RU-vid community guidelines? The truth and facts are that the DNA, culture, religion, language, archaeology, written, and oral history shows that Jews are Levantine Semitic. I can give personal testimony as my fathers side is Ashkenazi-Sephardic Jewish, and according to two different DNA tests I have over 40% Semitic Levantine DNA. The large majority of major genetic studies on Ashkenazic, Sephardic, and Mizrahic Jews performed in European, American, Asian, and MiddleEastern universities show that the majority of our DNA is Levantine Semitic with some areas having a low of 1/3, others having a high of over 90%.
The Palestinians of today are genitucally shown to be their descendants. Jews that converted to Christianity as well as Islam. They also descend from Ohilustines, hence Palestine.

I don't know why one of these historians has been called Judea as Palestine again and again even if everyone knows and also proof that there is no country called Palestine until the Roman Emperor Hadrian named it Palestine because of his frustration caused by the real Israeli Judea.
