“The Jews who will it shall achieve their State. We shall live at last as free men on our own soil” (Herzl, 1896). The Palestinian-Israeli conflict arose because of confrontations over land. Both the Muslim Palestinian Arabs and the Jews wanted the same land and they each had their own valid reasons for why it was justified their permanent occupation of Palestine was justified. In the late 1890s, Jewish Europeans started to migrate to Palestine because they believed that Palestine was their…

Since the stereotypes are still in place, acts of discrimination and antisemitism are still present in the modern world. One example of modern antisemitism can be found in a recent soccer game in the netherlands. Some of the fans began chanting “Hamas, hamas, Jews to the gas”, “Jews burn the best”, and “Kill the Jews”. In the 1980s, these chants were mainly incited by neo-Nazis, but today they have expanded to other people with antisemitic thoughts…

One might say I’ve experienced my share of fright, heartache, and disappointment in life. Born in 1940 in Berlin, Germany to a very strict Jewish family, it seemed as though my life was destined to be like any other European Jew at that time: deathly persecution by the ever-present population of anti-semites in Europe. Shortly after the Adolf Hitler rose to power in 1933, my parents, older sister, and I fled to live with my great aunt in Barcelona, Spain. Looking back on that event, I consider…

tolerance isn’t a new idea by any means, yet in the modern day world of terrorism, to what extent does tolerance extend until it becomes passive.

Describe how terrorist groups can make the use of internet to spread terror group messages and recruit new members. Give one or more actual examples of this. Many terror groups, whether Islamists or Marxists, nationalists or separatists, or even racists and anarchists have widely endorsed the use of internet to further their ideologies, raise funds, and in the recruitment of new members- both active jihadists and passive supporters (Weimann, 2014). According to Ressler (2006), most terror groups…

The Harder Right September 6, 2003, Avi Dichter, the head of Shin Bet, Israel’s internal security service, experienced his “toughest day” as a leader (Moreh, Fialon, & Kowarsky, 2012). Within the city of Gaza, leaders of the terrorist group Hamas assembled in a two-story building. Analysts calculated that a two-ton bomb could destroy these leaders, thus, decimating the terrorist group’s command and control. However, the Israeli army opposed the utilization of a one-ton bomb. This munition would…

Often we can only prove the concrete; we present evidence to prove a point or to prove otherwise, and we base our stand on evidence. Take for example the civil war in Israel between the Israel Defense Forces and the Hamas. The IDF regularly posts material online to show the world what Hamas is doing against itself, providing fact and testimony to back its claims. These methods of rhetoric have been around since the times of Ancient Greece, which were then termed under logos; reason, and ethos;…

For example, the infamous Ku Klux Klan or KKK believed that their work was representative of that of God himself.
