American columnist Ben Shapiro shot back at anti-Israel propaganda this week by debunking four of the most common myths propagated against Israel.

In a video posted on YouTube, which has already been watched over a million times, Shapiro said, "The things that we've been seeing on our screens from Hamas are atrocities, obviously. But the media has said that these atrocities are really missing context. The context they are providing is a bunch of lies."

Shapiro went on to address such misconceptions as "Israel is historically Muslim territory," "Israel is the cause of the failure of land partition in the Middle East," "Israel expelled all Palestinian Arabs from British Mandate Palestine," and "Israel is an apartheid state" with examples from the Bible and ancient and contemporary history.
