You are up to date with the headlines on aljazeera. The latest edition of aljazeera correspondent is next. My name is matt cassel. Im a photographer and a journalist. I grew up jewish in america and i support the palestinian struggle against occupation, support resign and israel is strong in the Jewish American community. And my support for palestinians has caused a rift in my family. After travelling in america to better understand u. S. Support for israel, im now headed to the middle east to trace my own story and see the conflict through the eyes of those who live in many ways the story of modern zionism starts in europe with Great Britain playing a prominent role after world war one and the breakup of the ottoman empire, britain took control of the land of palestine. During 28 years of the british mandate, thousands of jews fled antisemitic attacks in europe and emigrated to palestine with the hopes of the stablish in the home. And in 1948, british rule came to an end in palestine. And the state of israel was declared on may 14th, londons east, and has hosted immigrants from around the world most recently from the indian subcontinent. But at the turn of the 20th century, this district largely consisted of jewish immigrants who had fled antisemitic attacks in eastern europe. But my son was curious if it used to be a synagogue or through that well yeah. Jewish synagogue. Yeah, i dont think that most people know about how used to be said about, you know, no one knows the history. All right, thank you. Very good. Set up. In 1906 theodore heard so a jewish writer from austria, hungary addressed a large rally in the east and calling for the return of the jewish people to college time. He would later be considered by many to be the founder of modern zionism and a major catalyst for the creation of israel. I was in london to promote a book that i coedited, written by arab writers whose countries were swept up in the wave of arab uprisings in 2011. The Frontline Club hosted a Panel Discussion with the editors and authors this month. Some people are very optimistic, some people are hopeful, some people, thats a mistake. But you know, theres a, theres a process that happens uprising i havent got any sense of regret from people who are me was didnt know what the freedom means, you know. And what would you want not to see, president or Prime Minister the people of yours, but what they see and we need to change is the society itself. And its a great pleasure to be here with these 4 individuals tonight. Thank you all for coming and contributing. Journalist rachel shah became to moderate the discussion. She comes from an arab jewish families who left their native iraq after israels creation. We met up the next day at edgware road, which is long, been a hub for arab culture in london. And they see this was the place where you go to feel like youre in the middle east and environment and you can see all they are being used by this thing. In her writing, rachel argues the Jewish Nationalism. And the creation of israel in 1948, forced arab jewish communities to abandon the countrys, theyve been living in for centuries. A Iraqi Community was 2000 years old. It was big, it was vibrant at one point. It was a quarter of the population of all done it. Why did they leave . Did they want to leave . Why their life became untenable in the middle east . So it routed communities of jews. The house of longstanding, deep, very integrated relationships in the middle east. They had to hide his identity, arab jew that became extinct because of zionism. You know there are 2 different time. Metrically opposed. Movements seeking, you will see in seeking your alleged allegiance. So which one are you design . Is an israel to say. If you are jewish, you know, we have the answer to you, youll, youll, identity questions. Ill sit here. Why cant they be arab and jewish, and part of israel at the same time because that wasnt the ice. And steve, israel wanted all of it selfe, i mean, israel sees itself as a european country that somehow took the wrong turn and ended up in the middle east. So how do you identify well, im a hybrid suv, you know, identify myself as british. But i do have a jewish iraqi her until i also struggle with the question of my identity because israel claims to be the home for jewish people, many in the arab world, conflate judaism with israel. So its not always easy to discuss my jewish background in the middle east. And that i spent more than 4 years living in beirut from 2007 until 2011. Although i love chicago and the people there, theres a certain indescribable warmth in the middle east that i feel many people have always offered me as a foreigner. One of the, one of my closest friends who i met when i 1st came to lebanon, living together since 2007, 100 on the well being of a little girl. Who when we was, was the, was a journalist and still lives in the apartment. We used to share yes, loudly guess. Just see if you like people with you in the same balcony. So this apartment has always felt like home to me. And i was happy when i saw that many of the photos id taken of palestinian life in refugee camps. Were still hanging on the walls. How did we meet looking for them and i was looking for a place to stay. Yeah. But then you said the place needs a lot of work and i said, ill take about the ask and you never did. I painted the whole of the whole place. The place was, it was even more of a mess. Still was, it was more of a mask, but 6 years later, i remember just before our friend rima, and i asked her, i think its like my 1st or 2nd day in lebanon. And i asked her, you know, like so which religion do you belong to . And she almost, i remember why is that such a sensitive issue and its like if you ask people about that, i remember that, yeah, you 2 asked me and i was like, why this guys asking me, what is my side . This is, this is i dont want to be part of the group or the, i want to be part of the collective. I dont see whats the for the difference. It makes if one that judaism is recognize, one of them is judaism. And secondly, as, as another sect see, the thing is that there was never the anti semitic sentiments towards the jews in here as there was. And this him, for instance, the spanish inquisition times they were not perceived as an outside alum. And they were perceived as everyone else in the country. Things started going bad after 48. 00. Actually after there has been some of the rumors or news against the other border as being collaborate, the new jewish states that just got to be built in the middle of the middle east. Obviously i wasnt going around telling people you know that my background is jewish, that would have been a little weird. I think people would react well with this and certain places it could have been dangerous for you in places of the topic is a clothing designer from london and like rachel, she comes from an arab jewish background. Her family fled lebanon during the civil war. My father was born here, but you didnt live here. You never came here. But did you, did you grow up identifying with lebanese . Yes and no Like Community you dont really ever identify yourself as anything. I mean, i had 5 myself as a but my definitely felt more from my father and from the rest of my family more than i did you, you know, i mean, i dont, i was not saying that if thats true, its kind of all mixed into one renee feel is hard to separate the jewishness from the lebanese ness of my family. I feel that both is what i didnt even know until i was probably too old that there was no such thing as, as jewish arabs in the us, you know, like being jewish kind of is almost synonymous with being a supporter of israel. Yeah. Did you ever feel similarly . I dont think so because i think i was quite ignorant and it was never taught by my family. So you never felt any connection, no tool. And i think in europe its different in america like being in the us with being an israeli, or whatever being zionist, when you like in lebanon, youre going to do you feel comfortable talking about your jewish background . Yeah, definitely. I mean, i would be very picky about who i tell those kind of things to. I mean, i mean people think that the jews equals israelis and obviously this country is at war with israel. And people have a very kind of difficult history here in this country. You have blamed them, i mean, obviously that makes sense that they, if theyve been educated in israeli and different things, then you can understand that reaction today. I mean, of course its not like i would hold against them. We decided to get mad. A civil marriage based on our own beliefs that we are both none the religious nonsectarian people had to go through the mud, which is not at the office. And he pulled out a book, an ancient book, really big block of this. He went through the names until he got to your last name. He stopped at it and like, gave me a look and said, now jews, you know that i was like, oh, i dont, you have to find school larry fine. Lets not stop at it to heaven if you want to warn you, it took him an extra 2 minutes to digest that thought. According to most estimates, there are only a few dozen jews remaining in lebanon. All thats left of this once vibrant community is whispers. A synagogue, a jewish cemetery, the head of the Jewish Community in lebanon, was afraid to speak to us because of the increasing sectarian tensions in the country. I came to lebanon because i wanted to understand the situation for Palestinian Refugees in this country. And when i came, it was in the middle of a battle in the nothing a bit refugee camp in northern lebanon between the Lebanese Army and militants, from a group called the to the army, went into the care to try to root out 150 fighters or so they ended up destroying entire camp of 3040000, people, leveling it to the ground, forcing the inhabitants from that care to leave the camp with nothing but the clothes on their back. After the fighting ended, i was documenting their kind of struggle to return to their refugee camp and not it. This isnt the 1st time that they have been made refugees. In 1948, the creation of the state of israel forced more than 700000 palestinians to flee their homes into neighboring countries like lebanon. Palestinians refer to this period as and which is arabic for the catastrophe. Its Palestinian Refugees comprise about half of the worlds palestinian population. There numbering in some 6000000. 00. And a lot of them are living in refugee camps without rights, without the ability to work without the ability to own and pass on land to their family members. And yet somehow they know so much about their homeland and they know so much that they want to return to it. During the time i spent at the camp, i became close to z. Had a shower, who i went back to visit. It had been over a year since we last saw each other. I should not only mean i should try to bluff him. Despite our closeness, i never told ziad that i had a jewish background. I was afraid of how we would react. I wanted to tell him, during my visit, just entered not have it refugee camp, and we have someone from the Army Intelligence who is this courting us into the camp. This is actually how it started in 1948, with palestinians, but they had these little homes or little tents in many cases, and they basically just kept building on them. And thats what youll see with these benteke side, these prefabricated homes, they were given when they returned to not a bed in a few years ago. I arrived home made from temporary shipping containers provided by the u. N. I dont know if you just want to do you think you are shooting for they come to us down the some other means if i were a shadow, i dont know that if you are in jail, you keep some of them have it. There are people going to have to even think, you know, and i think like many refugees in lebanon were prevented by law from working in over 70 professions. Ziad is a laborer finding work wherever he can, but in the camps he has known 1st as a poet. His poems reflect Palestinian Refugees deep love for their homeland, an intense desire to return but it never was ok, but it was much too. One might need to keep. I view myself that i took that 432000 and 30 cats. Thats my stuff at like 6 am still fishing that day. And thats when fishing on the sea or in the field. You know philistine marshfield, full bodied good. None of which outfits going to full steam. Took the money out of being one who shouldve shopped for the studio. Oh, shit. I did do a mean headed know what i would do in the studio in washington because a lot or doesnt do with just put our thoughts on the screen to get in a character of a dear jack for the screen. So ended a little bit that i do want to be going to be in the could only look up to plus or would i love that office to know what i thought was a single call for help that was best for you. I got off this next up, we assess how to manipulate the site and i must say i did buy the book and if and when not to let all those ads, parents fled their home in 1940. Some of his family remains including an arrant who stayed with her husband. They have only been able to correspond through letters and u. K. General phone call. But in the summer of 2000, both sides of the family traveled to the border. With her brief moment, they were able to see each other again. For the 1st time in 53, we saw the scene, which i will tell you out of if i think i will move on, let me tell you what it means when there was a difference. It will come on shore to hear you on the can do more. He and the tab that on the on has of the car and the mood. I want to use our new people in the if that would not, of the School District to say get over. It would what doing on the has an issue for you to not adequately 50th more or less off something that a fan of we want to know. He meant to put a lot of thats up to him. I will add more now on for this time on a little see why you would have never seen a poem about how leave with military missions will not be suitable or matter how lived in the last seen walk on that road before the city. While deanie kept blood and will have no idea why the photo people do, you know, are there you can wonder how they fuck it without them and i would be lost on most of the steel there. No matter how those the d. A. s office team in the midst of those years is usually about the real thing was no, no, no. I didnt know what what this what here it was hard to talk openly was yad, particularly about my jewish background because i felt uncomfortable being followed by the 2 army minders who took notes on everything. We said it breaks my heart to see this man whos been like a father to me. Youre in for a place that he may never see. I see, i had to meet me again the next day. This time by the sea where we could talk more freely. Hes an avid fisherman, so i stopped by a store to buy him a pole so that we can go fishing together. Susie, i know i know, i bet you dont. We dont want you insulting. As you did 3, so you could catch anything from shore drive to go on a bo
