@lilyhollow:
As someone who is a). very poorly versed in Middle Eastern politics (to the point of my solution to this crisis being "rock, paper, scissors") and b). very unfamiliar with specific journalists and non-economic academics (because I use YouTube exclusively for music and low-budget movies), I'd like to weigh in on your point.
The burden is on you to tell us why we should discount the voices in pawnedge's video, and not the voices in yours.
I do know that Netanyahu has a vested stake in all of this. And, while he is probably one of the most knowledgeable people in the world on the topic of Israel, I can understand doubting his motives.
After a bit of research, though, this Peterson guy seems fairly well informed (albeit controversial in his views surrounding political correctness). Any particular reason you are dismissing him?
Also after a bit of research, it appears that the filmmaker of the video you provided, Abby Martin, is fairly fringe and more focused on sensationalism. The documentary itself seems a little sensationalist to me-- then again, I tend to avoid documentaries about current charged political issues, since they are always going to be heavily biased towards the side the filmmaker favors.
I am not saying that pawnedge is correct in his interpretation of events (he himself has requested evidence to disprove his claim), nor that you are incorrect in yours (in fact, you never actually provided an interpretation). I am just questioning your dismissal of pawnedge's video, which appears (to me) to be a double standard. Perhaps I'm missing something? Again, this is not an area in which I am particularly knowledgeable.
