WEBVTT - Israel's Evolution: A Deep Dive into Its Historical Timeline with Mark Moss 0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:02.840 Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Mark Moss Show. 0:00:03.040 --> 0:00:06.480 As we're always talking about the decentralized revolution, we're talking 0:00:06.480 --> 0:00:09.399 about de globalization, we're talking about the way the world 0:00:09.520 --> 0:00:11.119 is breaking apart, and of course we look at it 0:00:11.119 --> 0:00:15.800 through the lens of politics, finance, and technology. And you know, 0:00:16.120 --> 0:00:18.720 I've been doing this show now for about two years 0:00:18.800 --> 0:00:22.279 hitting these topics, talking about this deglobalization, and of course 0:00:22.320 --> 0:00:26.319 I use history as our guide. I use cycles of 0:00:26.440 --> 0:00:29.520 history as our guide. And it's a lot of times 0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:31.760 I get people asking me, like, Mark, you keep saying 0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:33.240 this is going to happen. When is it going to happen? 0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:36.000 And I say, well, it is happening. It's a process 0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:38.960 and we're going through it. But never have we seen 0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:43.080 it more pressing and more real than what we're seeing 0:00:43.159 --> 0:00:47.120 right now. And I say that with knowing that the 0:00:47.200 --> 0:00:51.080 last couple of years have been crazy. I mean really 0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:57.320 things really started taking off with the pandemic. Obviously, this 0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:01.279 authoritarian push caused this outline, and this was just sort 0:01:01.320 --> 0:01:03.920 of this cause and effect, and we had this authoritarian 0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:06.800 push around the world to lock everything down and control everything, 0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:09.200 which then caused lots of things to happen but I 0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:12.240 want to just pause for a second and let you 0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:14.400 know what we're going to talk about today. So we're 0:01:14.440 --> 0:01:16.919 talking about today how the world has continued to break apart, 0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:21.080 specifically with the wars happening in the Middle East, and 0:01:21.120 --> 0:01:24.240 I want to break down I've been sort of somewhat 0:01:24.280 --> 0:01:28.880 silent on this because well, as I did talk about 0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:30.520 it in a YouTube video, but I've been somewhat silent 0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:33.200 about this because, oh, it's so hard to know what 0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:38.000 is going on. You can easily counter either side, you 0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:40.319 can blame either side, you can counter the counter of 0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:43.039 the counter of either side. You can keep going deeper 0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:44.920 and deeper and deeper. And I didn't feel that one 0:01:45.000 --> 0:01:47.240 I knew where the truth was, and two I didn't 0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:49.920 feel like I had anything very constructive to say. But 0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:51.800 now that it's been going on for a while, I've 0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:54.840 been digging into it way more than I maybe should 0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:57.400 or need to. And I have some more stuff today, 0:01:57.440 --> 0:01:58.640 and I want to come and I want to talk 0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:02.360 about this new world war that's about to begin. And 0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:04.280 I'm going to use history as our guide. So we're 0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:06.040 going to talk about what's going on in the Middle East, 0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:08.680 but we're going to go through it from a historical perspective, 0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:11.320 so we could try to understand where we're at today 0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:14.200 from a let's say, a neutral lens, and then think 0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:17.480 about how this fits into the glo the greater global 0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:20.760 conflict that we're seeing, and again back into this deglobalization 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:24.040 or decentralization that we're talking about. All right, so that's 0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:25.320 what we're going to talk about now. Like I said, 0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:27.680 things really seem to take off during the pandemic, but 0:02:27.760 --> 0:02:31.240 really it actually started happening before that. So in December 0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:35.279 of twenty nineteen, there were ten countries in the world 0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:40.480 with over one million people each in the streets protesting. Okay, 0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:43.840 so a lot of this pushback, this US against them, 0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:46.160 the people versus the government, seems to have started during 0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:49.200 this pandemic, like I said, when this authoritarian regime really 0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:51.720 started to kind of put the pressure on governments around 0:02:51.760 --> 0:02:53.920 the world. But really, like I said, it actually in 0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:58.880 December tween nineteen, ten countries had a million people each protesting. 0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:01.120 So it's been one on for a while, and it's 0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:03.520 because of this pendulum that swings back and forth. I've 0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:07.160 been talking about, Now, how does this fit into this 0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:10.720 greater context. Well, now we have this authoritarian push people, 0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:14.519 and really it was sort of this uh, this last 0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:18.640 grasp of power that these states won have. And you know, 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:21.760 per Klaud Schwab's own words and not his own words, 0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:24.160 his own book. Klaus Schwab is the head of the 0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:26.760 World Economic Forum. If you're listening to the show hum, 0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:29.360 I'm sure you know that by now. But he wrote 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:33.040 a book called the Great Reset, that's what he called it. 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:35.640 It's his book, go read it. And he said that 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:39.680 we should take advantage of this opportunity to reimagine, to 0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:42.680 reset the world, to build it new. And of course 0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:46.880 they certainly tried to do that. And since then we've 0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:50.160 just seen this continue to escalate. Things really started to 0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:53.800 escalate in Canada when when the trucker started to protest 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:56.960 against that. Things really started to escalate. With the Russia 0:03:57.040 --> 0:04:00.320 Ukraine situation. Of course, now we still have the China 0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:03.160 Taiwan situation. We're going to talk about that later. And 0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:06.360 now in the Middle East things are breaking apart. But 0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:08.120 like I said, I wanted to kind of go back 0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:11.120 through history so you can have a better understanding of 0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:13.800 what is going on there and where we're going. And 0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:16.159 again I like to use history because it gives us 0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:20.279 better context of what's going on and right now, what 0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:23.279 I would like to see personally is peace. I think 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:26.040 most people would like to see peace. Now, there's certainly 0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:28.640 people on both sides that want to kill each other. 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:31.359 There's certainly that, but I think the majority of people 0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:34.880 in the world just want peace. The question is how 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:36.640 do we get there? And so that's what we're going 0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:38.920 to take a look at. We first have to understand 0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:41.320 that in order to get peace, and this is just 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:45.159 conflict resolution one on one, in order to get peace, 0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:48.400 both sides have to be able to put themselves in 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:50.960 other people's shoes. Both sides have to be willing to 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:54.800 see both sides of the conflict. And unfortunately, that's something 0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:58.800 that mainstream media just doesn't seem to want to facilitate. 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:02.440 Mainstream media doesn't want to facilitate it. I think there's 0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:05.360 members on both sides of the government or all the 0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:08.400 governments that don't want to facilitate this for any number 0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:10.960 of reasons that we can go into. But in order 0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:14.240 to get to peace, that has to happen. You know, 0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:16.480 if I'm in a if I'm in a conflict with 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:20.279 a relationship with my wife or with a friend. I 0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:23.039 have to be willing to stop and put myself into 0:05:23.120 --> 0:05:25.960 their shoes. I have to be willing to have empathy 0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:28.359 and think about where they're coming from. They have to 0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:30.120 be willing to do the same. We both have to 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:34.240 be willing to make concessions, and we both have to 0:05:34.240 --> 0:05:36.719 be willing to sort of let go of the past 0:05:37.080 --> 0:05:39.159 or we'll never be able to move forward. That's just 0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:41.520 how it works. This is not rocket science here like 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:43.919 this is this is This is how it works, and 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:45.960 so in order to have peace, that's what's going to 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:48.839 have to happen. But for all of the armchair pundits 0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:52.400 that are getting triggered by what they're seeing at college 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:56.039 campuses or whatever news channel you're watching, or people jump 0:05:56.080 --> 0:06:01.039 into conclusions, and especially social media. Now I'm certainly going 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:02.719 to make a case. I was going to do another 0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:06.159 episode today. We'll come back with this probably next week 0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:09.400 on how a lot of this war is actually pushing 0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:14.919 forward this authoritarian agenda, which is censorship of speech. Okay, 0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:17.840 so we know that the end goal is total control 0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:20.920 over our money, over our energy, over our food, and 0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:23.760 that as we get further and further along, there's more 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:27.159 push back to that and so as the powers that 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:31.000 be continue to lose their narrative because of the Internet 0:06:31.040 --> 0:06:33.480 has given us this freedom of speech and social media stuff, 0:06:33.720 --> 0:06:35.839 the only way they can continue to hold onto that 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:40.880 power is through censoring our ability to well just censoring, 0:06:41.360 --> 0:06:44.760 sensoring our ability to have free speech, and which is 0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:47.960 then sensoring our ability to think because now we don't 0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.200 have ideas, and also censoring our money. So I want 0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:51.840 to do a whole show on that. We'll come back 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:53.719 to that next week. Let me know in the comments 0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:55.080 if you actually want me to do that, because it's 0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:58.400 a big, big, big lift and I haven't fully committed yet. 0:06:58.400 --> 0:06:59.520 If I want to do that, so let me know, 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:00.960 hit me up on social media, let me know if 0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:03.640 you want me to do. How this war is really 0:07:03.640 --> 0:07:06.719 being used to push in more censorship, and not just 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:09.039 in the Middle East. As a matter of fact, just 0:07:09.120 --> 0:07:11.560 today at the time of this recording, I saw a 0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:14.920 news article that came out that in Ukraine they're moving 0:07:14.920 --> 0:07:17.960 to get rid of all the Orthodox Christian churches there, 0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:22.880 censoring people's religious freedom in Ukraine. So that's really what 0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.720 war is about. It's about censoring. It's happened in the 0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:28.560 United States as well, we've had laws against the free 0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:31.200 speech in the United States as well, so that's certainly 0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:34.800 something that's happening. But what I did, I went down 0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:36.240 that rabbit hole. The reason why I went down that 0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:39.680 rabbit hole is because social media. As much as I 0:07:39.720 --> 0:07:41.440 do not want to censor it, I want to continue 0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:46.640 to have free speech. Because of the short nature of 0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:50.040 what we see on social media, we're able to quickly 0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:53.800 take things out of context, and we're able to quickly 0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:57.160 jump onto one side of a narrative or another, and 0:07:57.280 --> 0:08:02.960 without the context, we can make good informed decisions. Right. 0:08:03.320 --> 0:08:07.239 And so again I'm not for censoring it, but mainstream media, 0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:10.360 the governments, the mainstream media people on both sides, and 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:13.840 just the use of social media, this short form content 0:08:14.640 --> 0:08:17.400 leads to this, and so I want to help stop that. 0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:20.320 And so let me bring context to what this is. 0:08:20.360 --> 0:08:23.120 You can understand now if we look at the Russia 0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:26.360 Ukraine situation for a while, I mean, there's both there's 0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:28.720 two sides of that. They say there's three sides to 0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:32.360 every story, right, there's like their side, my side, and 0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:34.679 then there's something in the middle. And so of course 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:38.240 Russia and Ukraine both have their own sides to that, 0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:41.920 and now we can see israel An Israel and Palestine 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:44.520 have their sides right, and each side want to blame 0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:49.240 the other rather than viewing the events from the current 0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:53.520 historical lens that we're talking about. But I don't want 0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:55.400 you to fall into that same trap. So we're going 0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:59.679 to help you understand what this global historical lens is. 0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:02.000 You're just tune in, you're listening to the markmas Show. 0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:04.520 I'm going to run through this historical context so we 0:09:04.559 --> 0:09:07.880 can see what's happening in this new war that's shaping up. 0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:09.640 You don't want to miss it, don't go way, I'll 0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:11.240 be right back. All right, welcome back. If you're just 0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:13.120 tune in, you're listening to the Mark mass Show, we're 0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:15.719 talking about the new war that's broken out in the 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:18.840 Middle East and how this fits in to the global 0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:22.120 wars that we're having, the deglobalization, and really I want 0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:25.719 to run you through the context of what's going on now. 0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:28.600 Like I said, there's multiple sides to each story. And 0:09:28.679 --> 0:09:31.720 so just like in Russia and Ukraine, each side seems 0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:35.360 to be fighting for their lives. Maybe in Israel, you 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:39.880 know they're fighting this existential threat, but so are the Palestinians. 0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:42.079 But really to understand this, we have to go back. 0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:45.520 We have to understand that there's a very long history 0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:48.160 of conflict in the region. And as a matter of fact, 0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:50.520 we can go back very far, and I'm going to 0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:53.000 do that, but I want to start with a little 0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.199 bit more recent times because this is where most people 0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:57.280 pick up the story, and we can see if there's 0:09:57.400 --> 0:10:00.640 been this long standing conflict between Israel and Palestine, which 0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:04.720 really began with the declaration of Israel as an independent 0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:08.199 nation state in nineteen forty eight. So you're going to 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:11.080 hear that Israel went and took the land from the Palestinians, 0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:16.199 which they kind of did, but that's not actually what happened. Now. 0:10:16.240 --> 0:10:19.160 What happened is thousands of Jews did immigrate to Palestinan 0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:22.840 in the nineteen twenties and the nineteen thirties. When that happened, 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:26.000 it did result in lots of violent clashes with the 0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:28.880 local Arab population that was there now at the time, 0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:33.240 though they weren't really taking it from the Palestinians because 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:37.240 at the time the British Empire had control. The British 0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:41.480 Empire was occupying it, and they were attempting to try 0:10:41.520 --> 0:10:44.880 to limit the amount of Jewish immigration that was coming. 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:47.520 And so as they were trying to keep the Jews out, 0:10:47.960 --> 0:10:51.360 the British, who had control, it made the Jews mad, 0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:53.920 as you might understand. And at the same time the 0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:56.880 British state was trying to support for a Jewish homeland, 0:10:57.679 --> 0:11:03.000 but that enraged the Arabs. The British had control, and obviously, 0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:05.480 no matter which side they made concessions to, the other 0:11:05.520 --> 0:11:07.960 side was going to be angry about it. As this 0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:12.319 was happening, then World War Two broke out. During World 0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:15.920 War two and estimated about six million Jews were murdered 0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:19.719 in Nazi concentration camps. And so after the war, the 0:11:19.800 --> 0:11:23.120 Jews started flooding out of Europe and started flooding into Palestine, 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:26.439 and then you know, they viewed this as their homeland, 0:11:26.520 --> 0:11:28.160 which it had been. We're going to go back through 0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:30.920 that history. And then by nineteen forty seven the British 0:11:30.960 --> 0:11:35.480 realized the situation had become unsustainable. All right, So this 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:37.920 is sort of where we're at today. And so the 0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:40.360 Palestinians are like, hey, this is our land. How would 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:42.440 you feel if they came and took your land? Of course, 0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:45.880 nobody would like that, right, we could look at this objectionally, 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:48.640 nobody would like that. But again, it was actually British 0:11:48.679 --> 0:11:51.360 land at the time. The British had ruled it. But 0:11:51.480 --> 0:11:53.120 I want to go back further, and then we're going 0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:54.559 to pick up this story. So let's go back a 0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:56.839 little bit further. Because as a matter of fact, this 0:11:56.960 --> 0:12:01.079 part of land right there is like the oldest land 0:12:01.120 --> 0:12:03.520 in the world that we know about. Obviously, all the 0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:05.400 land of the world is the same age, but this 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:07.800 is the part of the world that we know about. 0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:10.360 It's very well documented. As a matter of fact, we 0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:16.079 know about sixteen hundred before christ BC, so that's you know, 0:12:16.640 --> 0:12:20.760 thirty six hundred years ago or more. We have documentation 0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:23.640 of that land and what was going on there. So 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:29.080 in sixteen hundred BC, Abraham, the father of the Jewish people, 0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:33.120 went and settled in the land of Israel. All right, 0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:35.080 So he was a Jew and he was in the 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:37.840 Land of Israel, and that was his land. Over three 0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:43.800 thousand years ago. What happened is there was massive famine 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:48.520 in the land, and the people of the Jews living 0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:52.440 in Israel went to Egypt to get grain and they 0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:54.680 ended up moving to Egypt. So there was massive famine. 0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:57.680 It went for seven years. If you know your Bible stories, 0:12:57.679 --> 0:13:00.160 you know this, but it's documented throughout secular history as well. 0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:03.680 And so the Jews left Israel and they went to 0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:06.520 Egypt to get the food, to get the grain. Then 0:13:06.600 --> 0:13:09.240 this goes into the second book of the Bible, Exodus, 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:12.480 which is Bob Marley made a song about Exodus movement 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:16.360 of the people. And in twelve hundred BC, the people, 0:13:16.440 --> 0:13:20.960 the Jews, left Egypt and they went back to Israel. 0:13:21.720 --> 0:13:24.040 All right, and so now we see twelve hundred eleven 0:13:24.080 --> 0:13:26.880 hundred BC, the tribes of Israel go back, they settle 0:13:26.920 --> 0:13:29.400 in the land of Israel. So Israel, the Jews lived 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:32.600 in Israel, they left, they went to Egypt, they came 0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:36.920 back to Israel. Then in one thousand BC, the Kingdom 0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:39.679 of Israel is established. King Saul is the very first 0:13:39.760 --> 0:13:43.640 king that's there. One thousand BC, Jerusalem becomes the capital 0:13:43.640 --> 0:13:46.880 of the Kingdom of Israel under now King David nine 0:13:46.920 --> 0:13:50.440 hundred and sixty BC. The first temple is built by 0:13:50.800 --> 0:13:54.720 in Jerusalem by King Solomon seven twenty two to seven 0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:57.280 to twenty BC. The Kingdom of Israel that's located in 0:13:57.280 --> 0:14:00.800 the northern land of Israel is conquered. So now the 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:03.360 Jews that have been there for now you know, a 0:14:03.440 --> 0:14:07.559 thousand years, almost eight hundred years, they're now conquered by Assyria. 0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:14.560 And so now the tribes of Israel go into exile. Now, 0:14:15.120 --> 0:14:17.640 so the Jews were there, they left, they came back, 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:20.520 they got conquered. Now they're there by Syria. So all 0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:24.080 of history is a story of one tribe taking over 0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:27.440 another tribe. Since the very beginning of time, we've had 0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:32.880 tribes and they battle over scarce resources, and they fight 0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:35.160 over land, and they fight over food, and one tribe 0:14:35.200 --> 0:14:37.800 takes over another, and one village takes over another, and 0:14:37.880 --> 0:14:40.960 one kingdom takes over another, and all of history is 0:14:40.960 --> 0:14:44.680 a story of this. So, you know, here in the 0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:47.440 United States or in Canada, you hear about the indigenous 0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:52.400 people and their land was taken, but that is factually correct. 0:14:52.680 --> 0:14:54.880 But they took it from someone else before them, and 0:14:54.920 --> 0:14:56.640 they took it from someone else before them, and they 0:14:56.640 --> 0:14:58.600 took it from someone else before them, And so how 0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:01.880 far do you go back? So we can go back, 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:04.920 certainly as this story started to the nineteen forties when 0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:07.480 the Jews took it from the Palestinians, where I should 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:10.760 say the British gave it to the Jews. However, that's 0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:14.040 just the last time. So we're going all the way 0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:18.160 back to the beginning of recorded history sixteen hundred BC, 0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:21.160 and the Jews were there, okay, so now let's keep going. 0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:23.120 So they were exiled. The Syrians now took it. So 0:15:23.120 --> 0:15:24.880 now the Jews don't have it anymore. Now Syria has 0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:28.920 it a five eighty six PC the Kingdom of Judah. 0:15:29.160 --> 0:15:33.280 The Jews is now conquered by Babylon. Jerusalem and the 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:36.520 Temple are completely demolished, laid to waste, and the Jews 0:15:36.920 --> 0:15:39.240 are exiled. So now they're taken out of their own land. 0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:41.960 They are now exiled to Babylon. Now some of the 0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:45.240 Jews remained, but most of them were taken away. There's 0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:47.040 a story of the remnant, the few that were there. 0:15:47.120 --> 0:15:51.120 So they the Jews never totally left the land. There 0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:54.640 was always some that remained. Like I said that, the remnant. 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:58.400 So now five eighty six they are conquered, and they 0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:01.400 were exiled to Babylon five thirty eight to five point 0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:06.400 fifteen BC. They return. They return. The Jews return from 0:16:06.520 --> 0:16:10.320 Babylon and they rebuild the temple. Three point thirty two BC. 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:13.680 Now the land of Israel is conquered by Alexander the Great. 0:16:13.840 --> 0:16:17.040 You've probably heard about him. So again they left, they 0:16:17.040 --> 0:16:19.640 came back, they set up their kingdom again, and now 0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:22.360 they're taken over again Alexander the Great. Now we go 0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:25.880 one hundred and sixty BC. The Hasmon revolt against the 0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:28.760 Greek Empire in reaction to the constraints imposed on the 0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:32.800 Jewish religious practice. So now there's this revolt. Now the 0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:37.360 Greeks are fighting over the land. To sixty three BC 0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:43.360 the Jews establish independence again. You see how this just 0:16:43.520 --> 0:16:45.560 is a cycle. It just repeats over and over. Now 0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:50.960 sixty three BC, King Herod from Rome now rules the 0:16:51.040 --> 0:16:55.960 land in Israel. Now the temple's expanded, becomes a beautiful temple. 0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:00.000 But in sixty six p see the Jews rebel against 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:03.040 the Romans. Now because now the Romans control Israel, so 0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:07.160 the Jews rebel against that. And then seventy Now this 0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:10.080 is eighty. So this is now seventy after Christ the 0:17:10.119 --> 0:17:12.760 destruction of Jerusalem, and the Second Temple is built. In 0:17:12.800 --> 0:17:15.639 seventy three the Romans battle to conquer it and the 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:20.360 Romans takeover. They change the name of Judea to Syria Palestina, 0:17:20.760 --> 0:17:24.720 in the name of Jerusalem to Elia Capitalonia, and Jews 0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:27.560 are forbidden to settle in the land of Israel. So 0:17:27.760 --> 0:17:31.760 this is one hundred and thirty six eighty now, so 0:17:31.800 --> 0:17:34.720 again the Jews are forbidden from being in the land 0:17:34.760 --> 0:17:38.000 of Israel, which they've been in on and off since 0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:42.480 sixteen hundred PC. All right, Now, if you're just tune in, 0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:43.960 you're listening to the Mark Maus Show. I'm giving you 0:17:44.200 --> 0:17:47.040 historical context so we can have a better understanding of 0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:48.480 what is going on in the world today. I got 0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:50.080 a whole lot more to cover when I come back. 0:17:50.240 --> 0:17:51.640 You don't want to miss it, so don't go away. 0:17:51.880 --> 0:17:54.840 I'll be right back. All right, welcome back. If you're 0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:56.680 just tune in, you're listening to the Mark mass Show. 0:17:56.960 --> 0:18:01.000 We're talking about, as always, the decentralization the world, but 0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:04.359 we're going back through this historical context. We can understand 0:18:04.400 --> 0:18:09.280 what's going on in the Middle East. And I'm taking 0:18:09.280 --> 0:18:11.560 you through a long history, went back all the way 0:18:11.600 --> 0:18:15.080 to sixteen hundred BC. And if you're just tune in now, 0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:19.000 we're at six hundred eighty all right, So well, one 0:18:19.080 --> 0:18:23.719 thirty six eighty, the Romans took control of Israel and 0:18:24.280 --> 0:18:27.280 forbid the Jews from being in the land. So one 0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:30.879 thirty six eighty, now we fast forward to so the 0:18:31.000 --> 0:18:33.960 Romans have control. Now we fast forward to six hundred 0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:37.160 eighty and the Persians invade, and the Persians take control, 0:18:37.560 --> 0:18:41.520 and the Arabs conquest in six thirty eight eighty, So 0:18:41.560 --> 0:18:44.960 now the Arabs have control of the land. Six thirty 0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:47.560 eight the liberation of Jerusalem from a combined force of 0:18:47.600 --> 0:18:50.280 Persians and Jews. So the so the Arabs now have 0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:56.720 control of that land. But then in ten ninety nine 0:18:56.760 --> 0:19:00.840 to twelve ninety one, now the Crusader come in, and 0:19:00.880 --> 0:19:04.360 now they take over the land. And then in fifteen 0:19:04.520 --> 0:19:07.520 seventeen the Ottoman Empire comes over and takes over the 0:19:07.560 --> 0:19:13.239 land and they rule. Then in eighteen sixty three, so 0:19:13.240 --> 0:19:15.640 three hundred years later, three hundred and thirty years later, 0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:20.240 the Jewish majority comes back into Jerusalem and renew the land. 0:19:21.840 --> 0:19:24.719 Are you starting to get the story here? Nineteen oh one, 0:19:24.800 --> 0:19:27.320 the establishment of the Jewish National Fund, an organization for 0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:29.919 purchasing land for Jewish settlement settlement of the Land of 0:19:29.960 --> 0:19:33.879 Israel comes into place and then there's a lot of 0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:37.200 history that goes on through here. It starts happening pretty 0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:42.040 quickly here in nineteen sixteen it's called the Sikes Picot Agreement, 0:19:42.320 --> 0:19:45.920 and it was between France and Britain, and they delineated 0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:50.359 the two powers for this Middle Eastern area of rule 0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:55.760 in the Ottoman Empire. And this was right around the time, 0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:58.400 right when the World War for the First World War 0:19:58.440 --> 0:20:01.600 had ended. So now we have frank in Britain having control, 0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:05.639 taking overpower that used to be under the Ottoman Empire. 0:20:08.280 --> 0:20:10.840 And then in nineteen seventeen, a document signed by British 0:20:10.880 --> 0:20:14.400 Foreign Minister Lord Arthur James Balfour espouse a national Home 0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:17.720 for the Jewish people in the Land of Israel. As 0:20:17.720 --> 0:20:21.920 we keep going, nineteen twenty, the San Remo Agreement gave 0:20:21.960 --> 0:20:24.080 Britain rule over the Land of Israel after the fall 0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:27.560 of the Ottoman Empire and ratified the creation of the 0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:29.480 National Home for the Jewish people in the Land of 0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:31.960 Israel under the ages of the British power. So again, 0:20:32.080 --> 0:20:35.560 now the British have power, they have control over the land, 0:20:36.560 --> 0:20:39.240 and now they're giving it back to the Jewish people 0:20:39.240 --> 0:20:41.440 who have been in and out of there since sixteen 0:20:41.560 --> 0:20:46.040 hundred BC. Of course, the Arabs don't like this. They've 0:20:46.040 --> 0:20:50.200 been all around this, and so there's riots start happening, 0:20:51.240 --> 0:20:55.040 all of this starts happening, and now we're sort of 0:20:55.080 --> 0:21:00.119 caught back up into modern time. All right. So this 0:21:00.160 --> 0:21:02.600 has been a hotly contested piece of land. It's the 0:21:02.720 --> 0:21:04.760 oldest piece of land in the world that we have 0:21:04.880 --> 0:21:08.040 documentation for. And the Jews settled in a land in 0:21:08.080 --> 0:21:10.800 sixteen hundred BC and have been in and out of 0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:14.679 that land ever since for over three thousand years. And 0:21:14.760 --> 0:21:18.200 here we are back up to nineteen forty seven when 0:21:18.960 --> 0:21:23.959 after World War II, the British, having control, gave it 0:21:24.080 --> 0:21:28.920 back to the Israelites, to the Jews. I guess all right, 0:21:29.160 --> 0:21:33.240 Now this was also created by the United Nations, and 0:21:33.280 --> 0:21:35.240 so what the United Nations society to do because this 0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:39.600
