the Palestine in the area of Israel and the Gaza Strip. Before Israel was declared a Jewish state, it was a place for Arabs known as Palestine. The Arabs were displaced when Israel was created for the Jews creating conflict and tension between the two groups. As Arendt describes terror, it is the form of government that comes after violence has destroyed all power (Hannah Arendt, 1969).

They now only inhabited-in mass majority within-Palestine and Gaza. At this time, the rest of the Arab States began to focus themselves on Israel with their military forces, attacking from Jordan, Iraq and Egypt.

I am simply blessed to be born into a well- off family in America. I could have been born into a Syrian household in Aleppo. I could have been born into a house in the Gaza strip.

It is what allows you to feel complete and fulfilled…

Loud;Boisterous;Rowdy. But also fun; close;and happy.

Malcolm X fought against racial discrimination and advocated for the rights of African Americans, while the situation in Palestine involves the fight for their holy land and the rights of Palestinians, there are many similarities.
