The Six-Day War, a short conflict pitting Israel against Egypt, Jordan, and Syria, was a decisive Israeli victory that stretched from the 5th through the 10th of June, 1967. Despite the short duration of the war, Israel greatly improved their military reputation worldwide, as well as gained significant territory within the region. While controversial in that Israel launched a preemptive strike against nations that had yet to engage, the Israeli tactics highlighted the importance of quick,…

Within all the short stories compiled to make up Ayelet Tsabari’s collected work, The Best Place on Earth, violence is consistently present. Naturally, the conflict which has, and currently still creates strife in Israel leads to the inclusion of violence in her stories.

Tsabari was born in Israel, and is all too familiar with the horrors the wars have…

forward to doing now. I’ve learned a lot of things just by going out and doing something out of my comfort zone. Some fun things are disguised as bad, so we decided not to do it because we may not like it. One of my most learning experiences was at Six Flags Great America. As we entered the gates to the park, everyone was excited, except for me. Because, I made a promise that I was not sure that I could keep.

Hughes is most likely the speaker in this poem giving the view of an entire group, which would be the colored student population. The poem starts off by sharing an assignment the instructor gave the speaker for their class. The instructor informs the class that if they let their literary work…

double sticks will be main support and each side will have six X helping support inside, but sadly we didn’t achieve the goal, the reason why we didn’t achieve it will be we run out of the sticks, and glue, but I think it’s our fault, maybe we didn’t plan it well in the beginning time, and we kind of waste and break some of the sticks while we making it, so we are forced to change our plan, when we build the third side, instead of making six X support we making three triangles in the third side…
