Israel And Palestine Conflict Between Palestine And Israel

The crisis in Jerusalem dragged both Israel and Palestine into a vortex of violence and a religious conflict. Both Israelis and Palestinians had claim the city as a sacred religious site and their political capital. The conflict became quite violent causing the closure of holy sites, a deadly terrorist attack caused the Palestinian's to end all contact with Israel. Despite the peace efforts between the states, societies continued to rupture along ethnic and religious lines. Israel's continued unfolding with religious conflict and persisted in illegal actions causing living conditions for Palestinian civilians to become unlivable. Jews have formed the largest religious group in the city and have been in the majority. However, the Arab and Jewish communities in Palestine were in mortal dispute. Under an agreement approved by the United Nations, Jerusalem was meant to become a separated body but due to Arab forces sieging Jerusalem, and withdrawing of the British mandate, Jerusalem became a huge battleground. Jewish settlers pushed Muslim Arabs out of their homes and established the state of Israel on their land during the middle of the 20th century. Christianity, Judaism, and Islam are extremely tied to the ancient city due to them recognizing Jerusalem as a holy place. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is over which gets what land and how that land is

Since the Independence of Israel in 1948, there has been a greater tension between the Israelis and the Palestinian community. It is very important to know that both have been living Israel before it was considered an independent state. Not only Palestinians have been in conflict with the Israelis but also Arabs and Muslims. They might not have the same issues with Israel as the Palestinians do, but they both dislike Israelis for different reasons. Palestinians issue has been over property ownership while the Arabs and Muslims community has been over religious reasons. It is difficult to resist the conclusion that Israel belongs to

Before anyone can comprehend the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, one must understand the theory of Zionism. Theodor Herzl was the first Jew to have the idea of creating Israel. He was a witness of the Dreyfus affair, in which a Jewish officer was accused of treason, solely because he was Jewish. Herzl also witnessed mobs of people shouting “Death to the Jews”. This was the last straw for Herzl. Herzl decided that there needed to be a change so he made it one of his life goals to create a successful movement in which Jews founded a Jewish state. One of his main arguments was that discrimination against Jews could be eliminated if they had their own Jewish State, and so modern Zionism was formed. The idea of modern Zionism is so pertinent to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict because much of the reason for Israel becoming a Jewish state is behind the fact that Jews were perpetrated throughout the years before Zionism even came into play of the situation.

The territory of Israel and Palestine has been disputed since 1947, and the conflict in this region continues to this day. It has become an international conflict as it has spread outside the boundaries of those nations involved, associating other countries such as Syria, Jordan and Egypt with the contentions. Other countries have also become involved, with the aim of generating peace and stability throughout the region, but as of yet, the unrest remains. The recent conflict originally arose after world war two as a result of the UN (United Nations) allowing the division of the Palestine region into Jewish and Arab sectors because of the migration of many Jews into the region, in 1930 alone 230,000 Jews moved into this location to avoid the negative attitudes and actions that were brought about as a result of the Hitler Regime. The Palestinians believe that Israel belongs to them, and that the UN’s decision is wrong, whereas the Jews believe that parts of the land belong to them because of the religiously important history related to the location, a movement known as Zionism also encouraged Jews to move to Palestine as they saw it as the natural location to create a Jewish state. One location that was proven in court to religiously belong to the Jews is the Sheik Jarrah neighbourhood, where Jews are now being allowed to settle, with the other parts of the population being forcefully evicted from their homes.

The Arab Israeli conflict has been an issue for over many years. After the events of the Holocaust, many people believed that the Jews deserved a safe home to stay. Because of the Jewish background that says that God promised Abraham's descendants the land of Israel. By 1947, Palestine was full of Jews that were trying to escape the persecution known as the Zionist Movement. The Jews liked the idea of having a Jewish homeland. However the local Palestinian population of Muslim Arabs felt that the constant immigration was threatening their way of life. The conflict between the Arabic and Jewish populations had been constant for many years before the holocaust. It only came to light in the years after it ended.

The Palestinians begin losing their land in 1947 due to this they suffered in the Holocaust. In 1967 the Palestinians lost the rest of their land. The land that is known as Israel belonged to Palestinians first and was theirs for quite a while. When Israelis took the land they gave some to the Palestinians but soon took it back leaving the Palestinians with nothing. They both would like the best for their people. The problem with the two is that they do not want to share the land amongst each other. Palestinians and Israelis both have the same father whose name is Abraham. Both the Palestinians and Israelis believe the land belongs to

Arab and Israel have been fighting over Gaza for decades. After the holocaust where six million Jews were killed, many Jewish people wanted their own country. So they were given a large part of Palestine, which they though of their home but the Arabs in near by countries thought this was unfair and didn’t accept the new country. Because of this the two sides went to war and in the end Gaza was controlled by Egypt. It contained thousands of Palestinians who fled the new Jewish home, Israel.

Israel wanted to exchange the land they won for Arab countries to end fighting, but Israel ended up leaving Gaza in 2005. A group called Hamas took control of Gaza. The world recognizes Hamas as a terrorist organization. Hamas wanted Israel out, and the Palestinians to be in what they called their old home. Israel controls the borders and watch who comes in and out because they have a blockage on Gaza.

Over the years, people have argued about different solutions for the Arab/Israeli conflict. The Arab-Israeli conflict is an ongoing incongruity between Israelis and the Palestinians. Since 1948, the state of Israel is in the center of the dispute between the Palestinians and Israelis over who should own the land. The Jews (Israelis) claim that the land is theirs based on the promise to Abraham and his descendants and that the land was in fact the “promised land of Judah.” They believe that it is a Jewish haven promised to them by God. The Palestinians claim to the land based on the fact that they have been living in the country for hundreds of years and they represented the majority until Israel was made a country in 1948. The Arabs believe Abraham’s son, Ishmael, is the forefather of the Arabs, and that the land has also been promised to them. The solution that was brought up to solve to problem was the “two-state solution.” The two-state solution solves the Arab/Israeli conflict by seperating Palestine and Israel into two different states. This solution has been addressed by the United Nations several times but they have never reached a solution. Palestine is technically not its own “state” today. Palestine is not a country, but it 's a region of that part of the middle east. Israel is a country, which lies inside Palestine. "Palestinians" are non-Jews that

Palestine and Israel have a big fight that should of ended long ago. During the late nineteenth hundreds the standard Zionist began a movement into the promised land known as Palestine to reclaim their ancestral homeland (The Origin of..). After moving into Palestine Zionists started to create an exclusive Jewish state, however the Arab community caught on to the movement and opposed this by not allowing Jewish immigration into Palestine along with not permitting them to buy land. Thus one can see the struggle Palestine and Israel are involved in currently, which has transformed the Promised Land into a place with extreme terrorism and constant bickering between the Jews and Arabs. Now Palestine is fighting for the land that was once

Many years passed by and nothing happened between the Israelis and Palestinians, but in 1967 they went into war for six days. The Israelis ended up winning the war again and they took control of the remaining land of Palestinians. After the death of a Palestinian president, Hamas took complete control of Palestine. Hamas has been destroying Israel by rockets, bombs, shootings, and doing many more terrible things. These attacks have made the Israelis forces angry because Hamas is hurting their homeland just to hurt the Palestinians refugees. Israeli troops are getting their revenge on the Palestinian refugees by killing them for the pain they have caused to many Israeli people. Even to this day many Palestinian refugees suffer from Israeli forces

2) Hamas won legislative elections but lost the presidential election and it is the president who conducts negotiations. The reason was the electorate's disgruntlement with Fatah's corruption. Perhaps that is also a component of its failure to make peace?

Looking back at the history of Palestine before the war of 1940; it’s been stated that Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived in Palestine in harmony. During the 19th century there was 86 percent Muslims, 10 percent Christians, and 4 percent Jewish residents who settled in Palestine. Many claim that Palestine never existed. This is false, Palestine existed before 1948. Below is a coin during the year 1927 which was worth 10 Mils. If you take a closer look at the coin, you’ll notice the word Palestine is written in English, Arabic, and Hebrew. This in fact proves that not only did Palestine exist and

Jewish Israelis claim ownership of the land because they need a place that is safe from all the hostility from Arabs towards Jewish people. They also believe that they were promised this land by God. The Palestinians (Arabs) say it belongs to them because their ancestors have lived there for hundreds of years.

As long as history remembers, the Palestinian land has always been subject to conflict, millenniums before Christ. Many civilizations craved domination over the land due to its long-known reconnaissance as a strategic position where Europe, Asia, and Africa passed through, and as a crossroad for various religious, cultures and politics. It is the birthplace of the three major Abrahamic religions, and holds a dear price in the heart of each one of them (Derrida.15-59). It started with Ancient Egyptians, then went to, by respective order to: Canaanites, Philistines, Ancient Israelites, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Saracen, Crusaders, Ottomans, British, Jordans, Egyptians then, nowadays: Palestinians and Israelites.
