Palestinian Refugee Research Paper

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the one of the world’s oldest conflicts, and it is still an ongoing problem in the world. Zionists and Arabs: two groups with conflicting beliefs who both claim Israel as their own. In wake of the Holocaust the U.N decided to gift the Jews a homeland for the lives lost in the genocide. In 1947, the U.N Partition divided the land of Israel (Historic Palestine) into two separate states: Arab and Jewish. Since then, the state of Israel has been the center of conflict between the Arabs and the Zionists. As time passed the Zionists gained more land from winning the Six-Day War, and consequently the Palestinians had to live as refugees in other Arab countries. Additionally, more than 75% of the land belonged to

The refugee crisis that plagues the world is often referred to as the Syrian refugee crisis, and Western countries are usually concerned only for the affect it has on them and their country. Yet the countries taking in the most refugees are the relatively stable nations in the Middle East that are closest to those in crisis, like Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey, not the wealthy nations most capable of supporting the refugees. These countries are often small and suffering their own economic and political woes, and struggle with the masses of refugees entering the countries. Various groups are working to raise money and support for these refugees, and other poor African and Middle Eastern countries are attempting to do their best, but without the help of the wealth West, the refugee crisis is not going to go away. A question has been posed to the nations of the world; are they willing to take in any of the millions of the desperate refugees?

In addition, I will examine the current state of political and human rights in Israeli occupied West Bank and analyze how they are approaching a level of apartheid. Finally, I will summarize the effects of these social tensions between Israel and Palestinians in the terms of how potential open conflict could reignite.

As I sat on the back bench of a 12 passenger van with a coffee in my hand and my head on the back of the seat in front of me, I realized I had nothing left to give. All of energy was gone. I had come to the end of myself. We were driving down a bumpy road to an apartment complex filled with new faces from far away countries. As we drove I realized how much we had been doing every day and the weight of the things we had seen started to sink in. The refugees of Clarkson, Georgia had been through so much and I was getting a small glimpse into their lives during this week. However, it was Thursday afternoon and I was tired. We had been helping kids in the school all morning, then explored and ate at an international market, and my stomach was starting to turn from the ethnic food we had eaten. As we drove along and our leader described the after school program we would be working with I realized how physically exhausted I was. I began to pray for strength from God, and I told him that anything that

The Committee concluded that a unitary state in Palestine was impossible and it recommended a United Nations Trusteeship over Palestine. Now, after WWII and the Holocaust, the Arabs were being asked to ‘atone for the sins’ of the Nazis who wanted to get rid of the Jews, creating tensions and resentment. In November 1947, the UN General Assembly formally adopted the partition plan in UN Resolution 181; this stipulated that Palestine was to be partitioned into one Arab and one Jewish state with economic union between the two. Although the partition fell short of the Zionists aspirations for a state comprising the whole of Palestine, it managed to provide international legitimacy for the creation of a Jewish

During the Holocaust Jews went on boats to other country's but they kept getting denied. The Fresno family did not go to that boat. St.Louis did get on that boat and sailed to many country's. While they were on the ship after a long time of sailing the ship most people started to feel queasy. They went to the U.S. and also Cuba, but both of them had denied them. That is one difference they had between them.

The year of Al-Nakba 1948 was a critical year that affected the life of millions of Palestinians. In this year, Palestinians were forced to immigrate to neighboring countries. Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria contain a major number of Palestinian refugees; with the number of Palestinians in Lebanon doubling because the war in Syria drove them there (Alwani, 2015). However, other Palestinians were able to migrate into European countries, while others went to Arab gulf countries. Furthermore, unless the Palestinians got the nationality of the country they live in they do not have but foreign civilian rights. Palestinian refugees who live in Lebanon for more than 10 years should be granted the Lebanese nationality to overcome the

If you were forced to leave your home and flee to another country because of terrorism, would you not want the people of that country to welcome you with open arms? Today, thousands of refugees in the Middle East are escaping the terrorism in their homelands to go to a free country such as the United States. These immigrants are avoiding terrorism because of what they have seen happen to others who were affected by the terrorists. An immigrant is someone who migrates to another country, usually for permanent residence and a terrorist is a person or a member of a group that uses or advocates terrorism. With the rise of Middle Eastern immigrants escaping terrorism, the people of the United States need to support the refugees in adjusting to

Allowing tens of thousands of Muslim refugees to enter the United States could compromise the security of Christians in the country, according to renowned evangelist Franklin Graham.

Almost a century has passed since the end of World War One, and the 1917 Belfour Declaration, which endorsed the establishment of a Jewish national home in Palestine and the preservation of the civil and religious rights of non-Jewish Palestinian communities. Consequently, the British Mandate in the region of Israel, the former Palestine, which was initiated and endorsed by the League of Nations in 1922, and which incorporated the Belfour Declaration. The control of Israel has changed hands multiple times since then and subsequently, its borders have shifted considerably and always to the disadvantage of the Palestinians and Arabs. The League of Nations approval of the British Mandate and Belfour Declaration, was roundly rejected by Arabs and Palestinians whose hatred and fear of a Jewish State has led to the heated arguments and unrelenting Arab/Israeli conflicts that continues to this day. In this paper, I will outline and discuss the controversial “Partition Plan’s”, of 1937 and 1947 respectively, which have concurrently shaped and reflected the state of the conflict throughout the 20th century. This paper will attempt to provide an unbiased account of the positions of both parties on the presented issues, however I will, in my conclusion, provide my opinion on the matter in light of all the information and facts provided.

Can you feel their desperation, nowhere to go, no one to help them. They have almost no food and space left. With the growing number of population, it will make it harder for them. This is the problem of the Dadaab, Kenya refugees camp. Being the world’s largest refugee camp, there are more than 350,000 people there. (Participle) Most of them are from Somalia when they flew from the civil war. Now we should help them by make more space, or better, move them where they will be safer and have more food and space.

There are refugees all over the world that had to flee thier countries because of wars and terrorism. Alot of refugees are Syrian. When Oboma was president, the government was trying not to let refugees into America.

Throughout the period of World War II, many Jewish people had fled to Israel seeking a place for sanctuary due to Hitler’s reign of terror, but who knew that one of the most largest movements in the history of Europe would cause one of the biggest renowned issues that still remains today. We can easily conclude that both Palestinian and Israeli people both believe that Israel is a land of sacred, where both religions had made history in this land. Although one of the biggest issues that still remains today is who really deserves the land the most. The Palestinian people currently live in the land of Israel before the Jews had made their movement, but after letting in countless Jewish refugees into their land, the Jewish people had realized

Lately, in the Middle East and North Africa have been facing some difficulty in their country and for slightly for some years now have been attempting to flee their countries and go to Libya and Greece to escape the terrible push factors that affect their country. These factors range from civil war to increasing amount of human trafficking in most of their countries. “The migrants — mostly from Eritrea and Somalia — each had paid thousands of dollars to a gang of human traffickers, who raped and tortured many of the migrants before the disaster.” (Trawler Fire leads to hundreds of deaths near Sicilian Island).The human trafficking is becoming terrible in places such as Eritrea and Somalia. While the civil war is actually

Granting a substantial amount of refugees access to a country cannot come without substantial consequence. By offering access to asylum, one is exposing the country to the problems such as crime, economic issues, social issues, and other issues that the refugees bear and only creating more problems and worsening already rampant problems. This topic isn’t saying to stop any flow of refugees, but instead of allowing anyone who wants refuge in, precautions need to be taken in order to prevent these problems. Allowing large amounts of refugees into a country without vetting or regulation, causes more problems than it solves.
