How Illegal Jewish Militias Became Israel’s IDF Unpacked 2026-09-21 | How Illegal Jewish Militias Became Israel’s IDF
Should The IDF Be Held To A Higher Moral Standard? Unpacked 2022-12-28 | Today’s armies are subject to international humanitarian law, national pressure and public scrutiny. Yet they must also uphold themselves to their own specific ethical and moral codes.For decades, Israel’s military, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), has fought for the state’s very existence. Over time, many of Israel’s enemies have moved beyond the traditional battlefield and brokered for peace…or political warfare. Enemies like Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Hezbollah have tested the IDF’s morality by using unethical tactics beyond the accepted principles of warfare, putting innocent human lives at risk. Until Israel’s enemies hold themselves to a higher moral code, the IDF will remain prepared and armed to defend Israel from constant threat while striving to maintain its own ethical code.Subscribe and turn on your notifications so you don’t miss future uploads!youtube.com/UNPACKED?sub_confirmation=1 Recommended video—Is Israel an Occupying Power? youtube.com/watch?v=lqssx4rmAWo&list=PL-DNOnmKkUaY5PZL4kwVKfceXPI8G-lIV&index=4We have merch! – http://shop.jewishunpacked.com/?utm_medium=youtube&utm_source=video-description&utm_campaign=merchLet’s connect:Website — jewishunpacked.comInstagram — instagram.com/jewishunpackedTwitter — twitter.com/jewishunpackedTikTok — tiktok.com/@jewishunpackedFacebook — facebook.com/jewishunpacked-----------Executive Producers:— Debra Klein— Avi Naider— Jerry Ostrov— Barry SkolnickGold Level:— Blavatnik Family Foundation— The Associated’s Insight Israel Forum— The Crane Foundation— Aimee & Jerry Ostrov— Skolnick Family Charitable TrustSilver Level:— Sig and Miriam Feiger Family Foundation— The Messinger Family Charitable Fund— Rachie and Jon TellerBronze Level:— The Bernstein Family Foundation— Jewish Federation of Broward County— Betsy and Philip Darivoff— Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit— JCRC of the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia— Marilyn and Neville Isaacson— Corie and Michael Koss— Steve Miller— Pamela Rose— Kim and Perry Shwachman— Marci and Andrew Spitzer-----------Image and footage credits:TRT WorldAl Jazeera EnglishCharlie Chaplin official channelIDFi24Yes or No Game Show with Regis PhilbinUnited States Armed Forces (USA)Aish Los AngelesITN SourceThe Game of Thrones, HBOBBC NewsIsrael’s foreign Affairs MinistryThe Daily Show with Trevor NoahIsrael official channelKAN NewsChannel 10 NewsRashut Hashidur, Israel Broadcast AuthorityJourneyman PicturesIsrael’s Engineering Corps CommitteeAP ArchiveAFP News AgencyTravel The WorldCNNMEMRI TVFrance24 EnglishOn Demand NewsChannel 2 NewsWall Street JournalThe TelegraphIDF SpokespersonMiddle East EyeThe Jerusalem PostYNet NewsArtgridMarion Post WolcottIsrael Government Press Office, photographer: Kobi GideonIsrael Government Press Office, photographer Milner MosheIsrael Government Press Office, photographer Fritz CohenKhamenei.irFrankel, Sha’ar and Yifrach familiesHeadlines:Human rights WatchAlArabiya NewsI24 NewsThe TimesHudson InstituteHaaretzAP NewsDWThe SpectatorNPROCHA - United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsABC NewsThe Washington PostTime Magazine-----------About Unpacked: We provide nuanced insights by unpacking all things Jewish.

Did Saddam Hussein Launch a Nuclear Attack on Israel? Unpacked 2022-12-14 | Back in the first Gulf War, Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein attacked Iran, resulting in thirty-four countries entering an alliance against him. Hussein’s response? Threatening to start a war with Israel if anyone attacked Iraq. Rather than striking Iraq in defense, the Israeli government issued gas masks to all citizens and instructed them to keep them on hand at all times in case of chemical attack. When the US-led coalition attacked Iraq in 1991, Iraqi missiles rained down on Israel. While the Israeli death toll was low during the second Gulf War, the experience had a lasting impact on the country. The weaknesses that had been revealed during the experience inspired the invention of the Iron Dome, the installation of bomb shelters in all new homes and a massive overhaul of Israeli security.

How Did Israel Become the Tech Capital of the World? Unpacked 2022-11-23 | While Israel’s economy today is widely associated with the image of a fast-paced “start up nation,” the founding fathers of the modern state envisioned it as a Socialist utopia. In its early years, Israel’s economy was controlled by the “Histadrut,” a socialist labor union. This union held control of the economy through decades of mass immigration, war and economic collapse. Finally, in the 1990’s, the Israeli government moved to nationalize health insurance and, almost overnight, control by the Histadrut was eradicated. This gave way to Israel’s current market economy. Through the ups and downs of a journey from a socialist to a capitalist economy, Israel’s ability to innovate has paved the way to it having one of the top GDPs per capita in the world.Subscribe and turn on your notifications so you don’t miss future uploads!youtube.com/UNPACKED?sub_confirmation=1 Recommended video—Are Jews Rich?youtube.com/watch?v=ERILnSrAXbI&list=PL-DNOnmKkUaZrTGuvoIJFOgn4nr375SR_&index=3We have merch! – http://shop.jewishunpacked.com/?utm_medium=youtube&utm_source=video-description&utm_campaign=merchLet’s connect:Website — jewishunpacked.comInstagram — instagram.com/jewishunpackedTwitter — twitter.com/jewishunpackedTikTok — tiktok.com/@jewishunpackedFacebook — facebook.com/jewishunpacked-----------Executive Producers:— Debra Klein— Avi Naider— Jerry Ostrov— Barry SkolnickGold Level:— Blavatnik Family Foundation— The Associated’s Insight Israel Forum— The Crane Foundation— Aimee & Jerry Ostrov— Skolnick Family Charitable TrustSilver Level:— Sig and Miriam Feiger Family Foundation— The Messinger Family Charitable Fund— Rachie and Jon TellerBronze Level:— The Bernstein Family Foundation— Jewish Federation of Broward County— Betsy and Philip Darivoff— Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit— JCRC of the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia— Marilyn and Neville Isaacson— Corie and Michael Koss— Steve Miller— Pamela Rose— Kim and Perry Shwachman— Marci and Andrew Spitzer-----------Image and footage credits:ArtgridAssociated PressBBCYossi BraumanCarmel NewsreelChannel 2, IsraelFordFoxGadfin Aero-Logistics SystemsGerman Federal ArchiveGlobesHaAretzHarold Lloyd Entertainment, Inc.HasbroHistorical Jewish Press website – www.jpress.org.il – founded by the National Library and Tel Aviv UniversityHistradrutIDF and Defense Establishment ArchivesIDF Spokesperson's UnitInsider Inc.International Film FoundationIsrael Film Archive - Jerusalem CinemathequeIsraeli Government Press Office: Teddy Brauner, Fritz Cohen, David Eldan, Zoltan Kluger, Moshe Pridan, Hans PinnIsrael HayomIsraeli Ministry of Culture and SportIsraeli Ministry of Foreign AffairsITNThe Jerusalem PostJewish National FundKan ArchiveThe Knesset ChannelMeta Platforms, Inc.The Metropolitan Museum of ArtThe Morning StarDan Hadani Collection and Meitar Collection, The Pritzker Family National Photography Collection, The National Library of IsraelAn Israel Archives Network (IAN) project, accessible thanks to the collaborative efforts of the Arda Archives - the photography department at the Land of Israel Museum, the Oded Yarkoni Historical Archives-Petach Tikva, Yad Yitzchak ben Zvi, the Ministry of Jerusalem and Heritage and the National Library of Israel.

Did Jews Fight the Nazis during the Holocaust? Unpacked 2022-11-02 | By the 1930’s, Jewish life had existed in Europe for over 2,000 years. Despite facing expulsion, persecution, and antisemitic rhetoric, Jews survived, sometimes through bribery for security or relocation to “safer” parts of Europe. While this survival tactic served them for centuries, the Nazis rise to power was swift and calculated. Though historians who study this time period can theorize about where and how the tragic death of six million Jews could have occurred, hindsight is 20/20. What the Jews of Europe endured was beyond their control. The reality is that there was nowhere to go, and escape was nearly impossible. With surrounding countries and borders closed to Jews, the pre-World War II European Jewish community of approximately nine million had only a tiny number of survivors to carry on Jewish tradition and continuity into the next generation.

Did He Sell Jews to the Nazis in the Holocaust? Unpacked 2022-10-26 | In January 1954, the Attorney General v. Gruenwald case AKA the Kasztner trial began. This was seemingly an open and shut libel case between an elderly Hungarian Jew and Israeli government official, Israel Rudolf Kasztner. However, when the story of the impossible choices Kastner faced at the hands of the Nazis came to light, Israel was in an uproar. Somehow, this seemingly straightforward trial sent the country reeling, causing a government fallout and led to one of Israel’s first political assassination.

Is there a Jewish Messiah? Unpacked 2022-10-19 | The Jewish concept of a Messiah, or Mashiach in Hebrew, has been discussed extensively by rabbis, philosophers, poets and even featured in Jewish prayer. However, much like many other Jewish concepts, there are debates amongst Jews over what a messianic era is, how or when it will come about and how to help the Messiah arrive.

Was the IDF Responsible for the Death of Palestinians? Unpacked 2022-10-12 | After a horrific attack on an Israeli family by a Lebanese teenager working with the Palestine Liberation Front (a faction of the PLO) in 1979, Israel looked for an ally to help create a secure buffer zone between Israel and Lebanon. However, working with the President-elect of Lebanon, Bashir Gemayel, proved to have deadly consequences. His paramilitary group, the Phalangists massacred between 800 and 2,000 people in two Palestinian refugee camps called Sabra and Shatila. With the world in an uproar over the horrific news of this event, all fingers pointed blame towards Israel. Although the IDF entered Lebanon to stop the PLO’s terror, Israel accepted responsibility for the part they played in the dark story of Sabra and Shatila.

Who Were the Black Panthers in Israel? Unpacked 2022-10-06 | The integration of Mizrahi Jews into Israel was not an easy one. Jews from countries like Yemen, Morocco, Iraq, Egypt, and Syria had lived there for generations and after much oppression found themselves running for their lives to Israel. Enraged by the inequality they faced in their new home, a group of Mizrahi Jews took inspiration from the Black Panthers movement in the United States. The Israeli Black Panthers, HaPanterim HaShchorim, who emerged from this painful time period fought for systematic change and their impact is still felt in Israeli society today.

Who Are The Mizrahi Jews? | The Jewish Story | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-09-28 | In the second century CE, the Romans exiled the Jews of Judea and created a far flung diaspora which saw many Jews make their way to Europe, Asia and North Africa. Those who ended up in the East in countries like Iraq, Iran, and Syria and in North African countries like Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia would later become known as Mizrahi Jews. Mizrahi Jews often prospered under Muslim rule in these countries, however by the twentieth century, as Nazi ideology spread to the Middle East, they found themselves facing violent attacks from their once peaceful neighbors. By the mid-twentieth century, Mizrahi Jews were in desperate need of a safe haven. From 1948 to 1972, nearly 600,000 immigrated to Israel alongside other Jewish refugees from around the world. Though they faced a difficult transition and discrimination in their new home, Israel today is known for its richly-integrated Mizrahi culture.Subscribe and turn on your notifications so you don’t miss future uploads!youtube.com/UNPACKED?sub_confirmation=1 Recommended video—The Truth About Ashkenazi Jewsyoutube.com/watch?v=cw0G9COpeMY&list=PL-DNOnmKkUaZrTGuvoIJFOgn4nr375SR_&index=51We have merch! – http://shop.jewishunpacked.com/?utm_medium=youtube&utm_source=video-description&utm_campaign=merchLet’s connect:Website — jewishunpacked.comInstagram — instagram.com/jewishunpackedTwitter — twitter.com/jewishunpackedTikTok — tiktok.com/@jewishunpackedFacebook — facebook.com/jewishunpacked-----------Co-Executive Producers:- Melinda Goldrich- Shmuel KatzGold Level:- Goldrich Family Foundation-----------Image and footage credits:Israel GPO-Teddy BraunerBoris Carmi / Meitar Collection / National Library of Israel / The Pritzker Family National Photography CollectionIsrael GPO-Fritz CohenIsrael GPO-David EldanIsrael GPO-Amos ben GershomIsrael GPO-Seymour KatcoffIsrael GPO-Zoltan KlugerIsrael GPO-Moshe MilnerIsrael GPO-Mark NeymanIsrael GPO-Avi OhayonIsrael GPO-Hans PinnIsrael GPO-Yaakov SaarMaurice MamaneNadav Mann, BITMUNA.

Is Hezbollah a Terrorist Organization? Unpacked 2022-09-21 | When Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini took control of Iran in the Islamic Revolution of 1979, no one could have predicted that would be a catalyst for the formation of the terrorist organization Hezbollah, or “Party of God.” Since its inception, Hezbollah has grown from a small militant group in Lebanon to a massively well-funded organization hell-bent on destroying Israel. Despite retaliation from the Israel Defense Forces, Hezbollah’s power continues to grow and remains a serious threat to Israeli lives; a fact which will remain until true peace is found between Israel and Lebanon.

Is Judaism a Religion? Unpacked 2022-09-07 | Throughout the ages, people have debated whether Judaism is a religion, a culture, or a nationality…and where Israel fits into the mix.

The Secret Agreement That Shaped the Middle East | History of Israel Explained | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-08-31 | It was 1916 and World War I was raging. Countries were fighting for resources, land and power and the Ottoman Empire was on its deathbed. With all eyes on the Empire’s territories, the secretive Sykes-Picot agreement was created to decide who would get control over what would become Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, and Iraq, as well as parts of future Saudi Arabia and Turkey.However, in 1920, representatives at the San Remo Conference tossed these secret plans out in favor of “mandates'' AKA territory temporarily governed by an Allied power. This led to the British Mandate over Palestine, and the eventual establishment of Israel as a legal national home for the Jewish people.

Did Jews Always Support Israel? | Big Jewish Ideas | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-08-24 | In the late 1800s, rising antisemitism had people concerned that Judaism would disappear entirely. Two very different solutions arose in an attempt to solve this crisis: Reform Judaism and Zionism.Reform Judaism aimed to emphasize more universal Jewish values rather than rituals in an attempt to better integrate with non-Jews. Zionism focused on the desire for Jews to re-enter the world stage as their own people in a Jewish state. Eventually, after the horrors of the Holocaust, the Reform movement recognized the need for Zionism and moved to support it. Today, Jews both in and out of Israel have different and often polar opposite views about how to be Jewish, yet they remain part of the same peoplehood focused on Jewish continuity.This series is part of a partnership with the Z3 Project.

The Shocking Story of Jews Murdered in Kishinev Unpacked 2022-08-17 | When two young Christians were murdered in Kishinev, the heart of Moldova, in 1903, popular journalist Peva Krushevanl seized the opportunity to blame the Jews for their deaths. Using his daily newspaper as a personal soapbox, he riled up thousands of Kishinev’s civilians to take revenge against the Jews in a deadly pogrom which killed 49 people. This attack inspired Jewish poet Chaim Nachman Bialik to publish works to awaken the Jewish spirit and successfully invoked Jews across the world to take action against the rampant antisemitism in Europe.

After much debate, the Seventh Zionist Congress decided against executing the Uganda Plan and Herzl focused his efforts on aiding the future establishment of a Jewish state elsewhere. Fifty years later, Israel was established, keeping the Jewish state in a place rich with Jewish history, rather than merely a place of physical safety.Subscribe and turn on your notifications so you don’t miss future uploads!youtube.com/UNPACKED?sub_confirmation=1 Recommended video— Theodor Herzl: The Zionist Dream of a Jewish State youtube.com/watch?v=L9v3xrO4tMI&list=PL-DNOnmKkUabmHqdEAhdCAd02JleQjPhA&index=2We have merch! – http://shop.jewishunpacked.com/?utm_medium=youtube&utm_source=video-description&utm_campaign=merchLet’s connect:Website — jewishunpacked.comInstagram — instagram.com/jewishunpackedTwitter — twitter.com/jewishunpackedTikTok — tiktok.com/@jewishunpackedFacebook — facebook.com/jewishunpacked-----------Executive Producers:Debra KleinMichael MalingAdam MilsteinAvi NaiderJerry OstrovBarry SkolnickCo-Executive Producers:Russell GreenbergGloria KaylieAndy LappinGold Level:Koum Family FoundationBlavatnik Family FoundationThe Associated’s Insight Israel ForumThe Crane FoundationRobyn & Russell GreenbergHarvey & Gloria Kaylie FoundationCrain-Maling FoundationAdam and Gila Milstein Family FoundationAimee & Jerry OstrovSkolnick Family Charitable TrustSilver Level:Sig and Miriam Feiger Family FoundationThe Messinger Family Charitable FundRachie and Jon TellerBronze Level:The Bernstein Family FoundationJewish Federation of Broward CountyBetsy and Philip DarivoffJewish Federation of Metropolitan DetroitJCRC of the Jewish Federation of Greater PhiladelphiaMarilyn and Neville IsaacsonCorie and Michael KossSteve MillerPamela RoseSusan & Marc SacksKim and Perry ShwachmanMeryl & Sam SolomonMarci and Andrew SpitzerIn Partnership with UnitEd, an initiative of the Ministry of Diaspora Affairs -----------Image and footage credits:— Duke University, Sidney D.

Are Jews Rich? | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-07-20 | New channel alert youtube.com/@todayunpacked - Antisemitic tropes about Jewish wealth have been around for centuries. While there are some truly wild conspiracy theories out there it does beg the question…are Jews rich?While not ALL Jews are rich, Jewish people are still statistically overrepresented among the wealthy. This may be due to the overall Jewish value of education and a gravitation towards more urban environments where there are greater opportunities for economic advancement.

Were Jews Responsible For Bringing Down The USSR? | The Jewish Story | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-07-13 | After centuries of fighting for survival, Jews in Western European countries were finally granted citizenship in the 19th century. However, Eastern European countries like Russia were still encouraging violent pogroms and antisemitism towards their Jewish populations. Following the brutal events of World War Two, Jews in the Soviet Union attempted to escape their dire situation by applying for immigration to Israel. Unfortunately, these attempts were blocked by leader of the U.S.S.R, Joseph Stalin. Enraged by the many injustices they faced, Jewish activists like Anatoly Shcharansky (later, Natan Sharansky) fought to help free the Jews of the Soviet Union, and in turn propelled the movement that successfully dissolved the Soviet Union in 1991.

In fact, this fall, Israel will be undergoing a fifth election in three years.

A Jewish American Tale | The Jewish Story | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-06-29 | Jewish life in early 20th century America meant a constant question of identity. At a time when being an immigrant was far from celebrated, young Jews worked to free themselves from the “old country” traditions of their immigrant parents. This all came to a head when the world witnessed the horrors of the Holocaust. Suddenly, progressive American Jews needed to decide what was more important: their American values or the suffering of fellow Jews across the world. As Jews learned to balance the American dream with traditional Jewish values, a rich cultural diversity began to develop which has led to the great impact Jews have had on the United States until today.

What Life Is Like On An Israeli Kibbutz | Zionism Revisited | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-06-22 | In 1909 when young Jews founded the first Kibbutz, they had no idea that they would be forming a symbol of Israel’s rebirth. These agricultural communities innovated the communal experience as an experiment in Democratic Socialism. Jews from all over the world came to Israel in an attempt to find their identity and participate in advancing the country agriculturally, industrially and socially.

The Other Herzl: The Legacy of Rav Kook | Great Jewish Heroes | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-06-15 | In the early days of Zionism, the front-runners of the movement were largely secular Jews, many of whom were staunchly anti-religious. This all changed with Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook, who is accredited with shaping religious Zionism as it’s still known today. Born in Latvia in 1865, the young Talmudic prodigy had a love of speaking Hebrew and felt a deep mystical connection to both God and the Jewish homeland.When Rav Kook came to the Land of Israel in 1904, he became Chief Rabbi of Jaffa. He saw the divide between secular and religious Jews and worked towards bridging the gap between them. He furthered that mission as the first Ashkenazi “Chief Rabbi of Eretz Yisrael” from 1921 to 1935. Today, 90 years after his death, Rav Kook’s teachings continue to shape religious Zionism and inspire millions to love the people and the land of Israel.

Can Americans Be Patriots and Zionists? The Louis Brandeis Story | Great Jewish Heroes | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-05-18 | The first Jewish U.S. Supreme Court Justice, Louis Brandeis, was born in 1865 in Louisville, Kentucky to Jewish German immigrants. Brandeis grew up assimilated into American life and knew more about his German roots than his Jewish ones. Graduating first in his class from Harvard Law at the age of 20, Brandeis worked as a lawyer and was a leading reformer, fighting against poverty and injustice and defending equality and workers’ rights. While defending Jewish workers, Brandeis connected with his own Jewish heritage. Upon learning about Theodor Herzl’s call for a Jewish state in response to antisemitism and assimilation, Brandeis began to rally Jewish Americans around Zionism and support for Israel. Though asked to lead the American Zionist Movement, Brandeis instead chose to be an advocate for Zionism and American Jews by becoming a supreme court justice and remained a vocal supporter of Jewish dual loyalty.

Should Jews Support Ukraine? | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-05-11 | Despite Ukraine having a Jewish president, some Jews are conflicted about aiding the ongoing crisis due to the complex history of Ukrainian Jewry.In the tenth century, Ukrainian Jews lived in relative peace, working as middlemen between peasants and the nobility. However, in the fifteenth century, Bogdan Chmielnicki, now considered a Ukrainian hero, brutally slaughtered tens of thousands of Jews. In the years following the Chmielnicki massacre peace returned and Jews flourished. Jews and Ukrainians lived side by side, sharing both language and recipes that are still used today. In the seventeenth century, Eastern Ukraine was absorbed by Russia and Jews suffered once more from pogroms, antisemitism and forced assimilation. Pogroms continued into the twentieth century, despite Jews taking part in the founding of Ukraine’s first attempt at a modern country in 1917. Despite the atrocities Ukraine participated in during the Holocaust, Jews and Ukrainians found a middle ground once more in the 1960s and onward, even joining forces to free Ukraine from Soviet rule. Today, while antisemitism still exists in Ukraine, so do flourishing Jewish communities and in 2019 Ukraine elected its first Jewish president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

1948: Israels Battle for Independence | The Jewish Story | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-05-04 | Three years after the Holocaust and the devastating loss of six million Jews, Jewish refugees were desperately trying to immigrate to Israel. However, then British-mandated Palestine had extreme limits on Jewish immigration.Head of the Jewish Agency, David Ben-Gurion attempted to work with the British to appeal this policy. Though unsuccessful in this approach, the 1947 UN-created resolution 181, which called for a partitioned two-state solution, changed everything.Rejecting the resolution, Arabs rioted throughout the country. Battles broke out between Jews and Arabs and several thousand lives were lost. In the aftermath, the British withdrew from the country on May 15th 1948. Later that day, David Ben-Gurion declared the establishment of the State of Israel leading the surrounding Arab countries to attack Israel on all sides. Against all odds, the Jews held onto their land and Israel’s war for independence ended with the UN officially recognizing the State of Israel, the Jewish homeland.Subscribe and turn on your notifications so you don’t miss future uploads!youtube.com/UNPACKED?sub_confirmation=1 Recommended video— David Ben Gurion- Israel's First Prime Ministeryoutube.com/watch?v=IfZPQh5yXgE&list=PL-DNOnmKkUabmHqdEAhdCAd02JleQjPhA&index=53We have merch! – http://shop.jewishunpacked.com/?utm_medium=youtube&utm_source=video-description&utm_campaign=merchLet’s connect:Website — jewishunpacked.comInstagram — instagram.com/jewishunpackedTwitter — twitter.com/jewishunpackedTikTok — tiktok.com/@jewishunpackedFacebook — facebook.com/jewishunpacked-----------Co-Executive Producers:- Melinda Goldrich- Shmuel KatzGold Level:- Goldrich Family Foundation- Koum Family Foundation-----------Image and footage credits:Boris Carmi / Meitar Collection / National Library of Israel / The Pritzker Family National Photography CollectionHamburger Institut für SozialforschungIsrael GPOIsrael GPO-Teddy BraunerIsrael GPO-Fritz CohenIsrael GPO-David EldanIsrael GPO-Zoltan KlugerIsrael GPO-Moshe MilnerIsrael GPO-Hans PinnIsrael GPO-Yaakov Saar© IWM E 29943The Palmach Archive via the PikiWiki - Israel free image collection projectU.S. Embassy, The HagueUSHMM-----------About The Jewish Story: Understand three thousand years of Jewish history in these short videos based on the book Letters to Auntie Fori: The 5,000-Year History of the Jewish People and Their Faith by the renowned historian Sir Martin Gilbert.

Why Israels Ukraine Refugee Policy is so Controversial | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-04-13 | Since Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, thousands of people have fled their homes, sparking an international conversation surrounding refugee absorption into other countries. One of the countries debating the issue is Israel, a country where refugee absorption is part of the national discourse. With Ukraine being the world’s fifth-largest Jewish community, many Ukrainian Jews have sought asylum in Israel. Under Israel’s Law of Return, anyone with a Jewish grandparent can automatically receive citizenship to Israel. However, not all Ukrainian refugees who have arrived in Israel are eligible for citizenship.While Israel has always been a safe haven for Jews, should that apply to non-Jewish refugees too?Subscribe and turn on your notifications so you don’t miss future uploads!youtube.com/UNPACKED?sub_confirmation=1 Recommended video— Rescuing the Wandering Jewyoutube.com/watch?v=BF-y3S6364I&list=PL-DNOnmKkUabmHqdEAhdCAd02JleQjPhA&index=5We have merch! – http://shop.jewishunpacked.com/?utm_medium=youtube&utm_source=video-description&utm_campaign=merchLet’s connect:Website — jewishunpacked.comInstagram — instagram.com/jewishunpackedTwitter — twitter.com/jewishunpackedTikTok — tiktok.com/@jewishunpackedFacebook — facebook.com/jewishunpacked-----------Image and footage credits:Israel GPOIsrael GPO - David Eldani24-----------About Explainers: From ancient Jewish traditions to the modern State of Israel, we explain it all.

WW2: The Emergence of Nazism and the Holocaust | The Jewish Story | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-04-06 | Despite facing antisemitism in the 1920s and 1930s, European Jews, especially those in Germany, lived well as integral members of society. However, that all changed when a fringe political movement rose to power. The National Socialist German Workers’ Party (Nazi Party) and their leader, Adolf Hitler, vowed to annihilate all Jews, whom they viewed as “parasites”. By the end of World War II, some six million Jews and five million others had been murdered at the hands of the Nazis and their supporters. The effects of the atrocities of the Holocaust are still felt today by Jews around the world, and Jewish communities have worked tirelessly to educate the world about these horrors so that they never happen again.Subscribe and turn on your notifications so you don’t miss future uploads!youtube.com/UNPACKED?sub_confirmation=1 Recommended video— The Biochemist Who Helped Establish a Jewish Stateyoutube.com/watch?v=JHQUseMAh14&list=PL-DNOnmKkUaa6YEEEhDmTnLlWKc5a3TYH&index=6We have merch! – http://shop.jewishunpacked.com/?utm_medium=youtube&utm_source=video-description&utm_campaign=merchLet’s connect:Website — jewishunpacked.comInstagram — instagram.com/jewishunpackedTwitter — twitter.com/jewishunpackedTikTok — tiktok.com/@jewishunpackedFacebook — facebook.com/jewishunpacked-----------Executive Producer:- Melinda GoldrichCo-Executive Producer:- Shmuel KatzGold Level:- Goldrich Family FoundationLauren and Ezra KestSilver:In honor of the Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum-----------Image and footage credits:USHMMYad VaShemHamburger Institut für SozialforschungIsrael GPO-Zoltan KlugerIsrael GPO-David EldanFundacja Chai-----------About The Jewish Story: Understand three thousand years of Jewish history in these short videos based on the book Letters to Auntie Fori: The 5,000-Year History of the Jewish People and Their Faith by the renowned historian Sir Martin Gilbert.

The True Origins of Modern Zionism | The Jewish Story | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-03-09 | While the State of Israel is barely 75 years old, the origins of Zionism actually go back a lot further than one might think. In fact, Zionism was born at three distinct moments in history that all contributed to Zionism as the world knows it today. The first story of Zionism dates back thousands of years ago starting with Abraham in biblical times. This paved the way for the modern movements of 200 years ago during the Enlightenment and 125 years ago when the first political Zionist movement was created.Each of these occurrences shared the same dream for the Jewish people to be recognized as a sovereign nation in their homeland, Israel.

Chabad-Lubavitch is one part of the greater revival movement called Hasidic Judaism which developed in the 18th century and began to spread across Europe with each Hasidic court following their own religious leader or “Rebbe.” Scholar, engineer, and visionary leader, the Lubavitcher Rebbe created a blueprint for how to spread a love for Judaism. With his guidance, emissaries or “shluchim'' have built Jewish infrastructure across the globe, ensuring that Jews from all walks of life have the opportunity to take part in Jewish life, no matter where they are or where they’ve come from.

Why Amnesty Internationals Claim of Apartheid in Israel is Dangerous | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-02-09 | On February 1st, Amnesty International published a report titled "Israel’s apartheid against Palestinians: Cruel system of domination and crime against humanity.” Unlike healthy criticism of Israel that offers space for dialogue, this claim is problematic. The report doesn't allow for a nuanced breakdown of the situation. The claim is also dangerous in that this accusation puts Jewish communities at risk during this time of rising antisemitism. Mislabeling Israel as an apartheid state won’t actually move the needle on this age-old conflict.

Civil Rights Stories Youve Never Heard About | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-02-06 | The Black community continued to face discrimination under the racist Jim Crow laws in the South which led to the civil rights movement. Jews across the United States, by overwhelming majority, joined the cause to end segregation and supported the civil rights cause. The partnership between the communities was, in some ways, epitomized by the little-known story of Esther Swirk Brown, a Jewish homemaker from Kansas City, and her legal crusade to end school segregationDisclaimer: While Jews are a diverse, multi-racial people, in this video when we speak about the interactions between the Black community and the Jewish community we are speaking about Jews of European descent.Subscribe and turn on your notifications so you don’t miss future uploads!youtube.com/UNPACKED?sub_confirmation=1 Recommended video— MLK's Jewish Connectionyoutube.com/watch?v=SPkiim0AcT4&list=PL-DNOnmKkUaZrTGuvoIJFOgn4nr375SR_&index=21We have merch! – http://shop.jewishunpacked.com/?utm_medium=youtube&utm_source=video-description&utm_campaign=merchLet’s connect:Website — jewishunpacked.comInstagram — instagram.com/jewishunpackedTwitter — twitter.com/jewishunpackedTikTok — tiktok.com/@jewishunpackedFacebook — facebook.com/jewishunpacked-----------This video was co-produced by OpenDor Media and Jewish Federations of North America.

The Unknown Connection Between Black and Jewish Communities in America | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-01-30 | The end of the nineteenth century found Black and Jewish communities in America living side by side, both facing discrimination from the white Protestant majority. Conflict and shifting in power structures brought on feelings of racism and antisemitism between the two groups, yet the horrors of World War II and the Holocaust would unite the communities around an unlikely cause: Zionism.

The Rise and Fall of Jews in the Ottoman Empire | The Jewish Story | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-01-26 | Fleeing the massacres and forced conversions of Christian Europe in the Middle Ages, tens of thousands of Jews found a new safe haven in the Ottoman Empire. For the next few centuries, the Muslim-run empire became home for Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews alike. Though relegated to second-class citizens called “dhimmis,” Jews brought with them useful skills in medicine, finance and trade, and flourished. However, over time the Ottoman Empire began to crumble. Once more, the Jews faced antisemitism and suffered from poverty and violence. By the end of the 19th century, it was clear that the safe haven of the Ottoman Empire was no longer safe. Over the first half of the 20th century, the empire had collapsed and Jews fled to Israel, America and France in the hopes of finding the safety and prosperity they had had in the Muslim world.

How Jews Ended Up in India and China | The Jewish Story | Unpacked Unpacked 2022-01-12 | Beyond the driving forces of antisemitism and persecution, trading goods has also had a powerful impact on the migration of Jews throughout history. In countries like China and India, the vast network of Jewish traders shaped the path for the wide spread of diverse Jewish communities. In the 12th century, Jews settled across China in places like Kaifeng, a city on the Silk Road. Trading between China and the West meant Jewish traders could keep up with the global Jewish community while maintaining a place in Chinese society. Though the community thrived for centuries, over time the Kaifeng Jews have largely assimilated and roughly 1,000 members are left in the community today. In India, the two largest Jewish communities were Cochin Jews and Bene Israel. Cochin Jews arrived as far back as the 1st century through the Roman-Indian trade system, while Bene Israel was started by a group of Jewish traders who settled after being shipwrecked on the coast of Maharashtra, India. As time went on, these communities grew, joined by Jewish traders from Portugal as well as those fleeing persecution from Ottoman Iraq. Following Israel and India’s independence from British control, most of India’s 25,000 Jews immigrated to Israel, joined by many Jews across Asia. Despite this, both India and China have seen new Jewish arrivals in the 20th and 21st centuries leading to the continued diversity of widespread Jewish communities in the Diaspora.Subscribe and turn on your notifications so you don’t miss future uploads!youtube.com/UNPACKED?sub_confirmation=1 Recommended video— Who Was the Secret Jewish Aunt of the Indian First Family? youtube.com/watch?v=8mu6YX_UBrc&list=PL-DNOnmKkUaZrTGuvoIJFOgn4nr375SR_&index=37We have merch! – http://shop.jewishunpacked.com/?utm_medium=youtube&utm_source=video-description&utm_campaign=merchLet’s connect:Website — jewishunpacked.comInstagram — instagram.com/jewishunpackedTwitter — twitter.com/jewishunpackedTikTok — tiktok.com/@jewishunpackedFacebook — facebook.com/jewishunpacked-----------Co-Executive Producers:- Melinda Goldrich- Shmuel KatzGold Level:- Goldrich Family Foundation-----------Image and footage credits:chrstphreIsraeli National Archives-Yehuda Eizenstark CollectionIsraeli GPO-Fritz CohenIsraeli GPO-David EldanIsraeli GPO-Zoltan KlugerIsraeli GPOSam LitvinUSHMM-----------About The Jewish Story: Understand three thousand years of Jewish history in these short videos based on the book Letters to Auntie Fori: The 5,000-Year History of the Jewish People and Their Faith by the renowned historian Sir Martin Gilbert.
