Israel and the United Nations

The big question we ask ourselves today is, will Israel and Palestine ever agree to stop fighting? The conflict between Israel and Palestine has been traced all the way back to 1948 through 2005 in The Israel Palestine Land Settlement Problem, written by Charles Rowley and Jennis Taylor. However, this conflict did not end in 2005. This article was written in 2006, so anything within the last 10 years is not included. The conflict between the two counties still continues to this day and still remains a major problem. Israelis and Arabs have been fighting over Gaza on and off for decades now. The three issues laid out in this article are the four major wars that took place, the refugee problem, and the conflict between religions. It concludes with the road map to peace. Throughout his whole book, The Israel-Palestine Conflict, Gelvin speaks of the same historical events that occurred between Israel and Palestine, while the article reveals there are still other conflicts, the land settlement problem has been the major conflict between Israel and Palestine since 1948.

A common misconception about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is that it is deeply rooted in religion. However, it instead is a dispute over claims on the same land. Israelis believe that they are entitled to the land now known as Israel, while the Palestinians believe that they are entitled to this same land in which they call Palestine instead. Religion does, however, come into play as both sides believe that their God actually gave them this land, and giving it away would simply be unjust. After viewing both articles, The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict by Mark Tessler, and Palestine, Israel and the Arab-Israeli Conflict A primer by Joel Beinin and Lisa Hajjar, I believe that truly understanding the Israeli-Palestinian and its entirety means breaking it down in a historically

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has a long and storied history. Israel was created in response to European anti-Semitism, with the ethno-nationalist vision of a Jewish territory of their own. By 1948, approximately 522,000 Jews had migrated to Palestine, most arriving during Hitler’s reign of terror that against Jews. Largely, Palestinians resented being expelled from their lands and bearing the burden of the persecution of European Jews. Consequently, the 1947 UN partition sparked aggression between Jewish and Palestinian militias, which escalated following Israel’s independence in 1948. This marks the beginning of conflict between two distinct populations seeking self-determination. Since then, numerous wars, uprisings and terrorist

The State of Israel formerly known as Palestine is known as one of the most conflict infected areas. Problems between the Palestinian Arab population and the Israeli one constantly happen. But how did this come to be? Palestine was an area that was home to an Arab majority prior to World War II, but do to many factors the Jewish population increased. These factors included heavy migration into Palestine after the establishment of the British mandate and the Balfour Declaration, which was signed in 1917. Migration increased as well due to anti-Semitism in Europe and the Holocaust. Due to Britain’s lack of control of migration, and problems arising in the region as well, the decision was given to the U.N. It was a partition plan in 1947 between the Arabs and the Jewish population, but soon after that Israel declared its independence.

Proceeding from a simplistic perception of regional stability, Washington utilized the surrogate strategy to control the outcomes of regional interactions in the Middle East and chose Israel to play the role of regional surrogate. But Israel, in many cases, instead of maintaining regional stability on behalf of the US, served its own interests which were not always consistent with US interest in regional stability. The Israeli violations, however, were either condoned or even approved by the US administrations. These reactions comprised what this chapter addressed as a pro-Israel model of intervention.

Imagine the Native Americans speak up and say they want to own their ancestral homeland back and that the Americans are not welcome to live there. If you were American, would you sit back and let them take it? Of course you would not let them do that because you would want to defend your family and homeland. This is exactly what happened in Palestine. The Israelis invaded Palestine and kicked out the Palestinians living there when Israel declared independence. The US should support Palestine in their fight for freedom because Israel has been invading Palestine and Palestine needs help to stand up to Israel.

Three Christian groups have collaborated to launch a 13-part original series titled “Why Israel Matters,” which aims to show how important the Jewish state is to America, Christians, and the rest of the world.

Israel is a high controversial state that all have differing opinions on. There are many things that make Israel a hot topic. In order to discover why Israel is so controversial, this paper will delve into the creation of Israel, and how it affects the area around it.

During the period following World War 2.The new Zionist movement of Jews immigrating to the Middle East to establish a homeland for all Jews in what was now Israel after being displaced for many years. This led to conflict between the Arabs and the Jews about who had rights to this homeland, with both the Arab Muslims and the Jewish Israelis having biblical claims to the cities in the Middle East. This conflict was further fuelled by both the USA and the USSR as they were trying to spread their sphere of influence by supplying aid in the form of weapons, ammunition and support to gain access to valuable resources and water ways. However their involvement was not a direct factor leading to the conflict between Israel and the Arab states but rather prolonging it by supplying tools of war.

A conflict that has been going on for decades, centuries even. An entire country divided against each other because of a single question. Who does the land belong to? Many have debated this topic trying to find an answer to this question. But what started it all? Who does it entail? Well let's find out and explore the history of the country with the most intractable conflict in the world, Israel.

Only 19 years after becoming a state and following its first war for survival and independence, Israel is once again faced with the threat of annihilation by its Arab neighbors. Miraculously, with no allies or support from other countries the tiny State of Israel does not only survive its next war, but is triumphant. Known as the Six-Day War, coined for its brief duration, this legendary battle established Israel as the dominant fighting force in the Middle East and greatly impacted the territorial, economic, and political environment in Israel.

Though these diplomatic travesties are enough to call our diplomatic relationship into question, the United States still continues to give Israel large sums of foreign aid. Glenn Greenwald, the author of four best-selling law and policy books, and co-founder of The Intercept, an online news-outlet he co-founded. In response to President Barack Obama’s announcement to sign a deal that increases the amount of Israel’s funding, he published “As Israel Prospers, Obama Set to Give Billions More in Aid While Netanyahu Demands Even More.” He writes United States gave over $3.1 billion taxpayer dollars to Israel in 2015—nearly half the foreign aid budget—totaling over $38 billion in aid for the next ten years. The article explores how foreign aid deals with Israel surmount aid to any other country, even though Israel no longer has a flourishing economy.

Israelis and Palestinians are in a conflict over the land known as Israel. This conflict started way back in 135 AD when the Jews were kicked out of their homeland. The land turned into Palestine and the Jews had no homeland and was known as Diaspora. To this day they are still fighting over the land. Israel should not have to share the land with Palestine.

After more than 50 years of war, terrorism, peace negotiation and human suffering, Israel and Palestine remain as far from a peaceful settlement as ever. The entire Middle Eastern region remains a cauldron waiting to reach the boiling point, a potent mixture of religious extremism, (Jewish, Christian and Islamic), mixed with oil and munitions.
