I have recently gotten a lot of criticism on my views on the Palestine-Israel situation, I'm now trying to learn more to have a more accurate and holistic perspective. So my question is how accurate is that video?
[question] How accurate is this breif history video?

Try this video by GDF instead for how Israel was created

The facts are somewhat accurate but the framing and bias is pro-genocide. For example, compare their description of the PLO/palestinians (terrorists, violent uprisings) to their description of zionist settlers/military (nonviolent, "moving/settling", defending against terror). Also the little animations of tanks shooting at each other is a pretty gross false equivalence. Also how they go focus deeply on jewish religion/stories but not much about other people. They make it seem like palestinians were invented by romans to punish jews ffs.... Etc.
