A video has been shared on social media appearing to show an Israeli soldier coercing detained Palestinians to describe themselves as slaves.

The clip shows blindfolded detainees sitting on a coach, repeating words in Hebrew after a man speaking from behind the camera.

“We’d like to congratulate the Azoulai family, lots of love and great success. We, the terrorists from Gaza are very afraid of the entire Azoulai family,” the men repeat.

“The Azoulai family is very, very, very, very respectable, important and we want to be slaves of the Azoulai family forever and ever. [We want] to work for them in sewage and gardening and a do a very good job,” they continue.

    The US and Israel have not been allies for 70 years. When Israel embarrassed itself in the 1956 invasion of Egypt with British and French support, the US backed Egypt.

    Even during the '67 war, the US forced Israel to abandon its aggression.

    Things really changed when Kissinger came into the picture.

      Their relationship grew stronger over the years, but they’ve been allies for 75 years. They’ve been Uber allies for, what, 45 years?
