Reading this article, I came to the realization that Israel and Palestine are two countries that fought for territorial and power and religions, because Israel was Jewish, and Palestine was mostly Muslims. Before it was proclaimed and established the Israel States they went through oppression and discrimination. As a result of the Holocaust in Europe, many Jews illegally arrived in Palestine, also radical Jewish groups active terrorism against British forces in Palestine. According to this print…

How does the Syrian civil war effect Christian refugees? Over the last twelve months extremist groups in Syria have been persecuting Christians just for their credence in Christianity. Christian persecution has been proliferated in such a number over the world the humanitarian aid workers assume that Christianity will be on the periphery of extinction in the Middle East if our governments don’t step in and prevent this crisis.

addition to 1,195 Israelis and at least 9,131 Palestinians killed since September 29, 2000 due to pointless wars. As nationalism rises in Israel and Palestine, two opposing ideas rise in response to what will happen to the strip of land between Egypt and Jordan, thus starting the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. Multiple wars have broken out due to the feeling of unfairness with land separation, so it is necessary that a compromise should be created in the form of a peace treaty to allow equal land…

The New York Post published an article titled, “New York stands with Israel” where they put a quote from the Governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, saying “Hamas and other terrorist organizations continue to threaten Israel” and then the author of the article wrote, “We couldn’t agree more.” They are attempting to convey that Hamas threatens the livelihood of Israel. This is untrue for a multitude of reasons. Hamas was established as an Israeli resistance group in 1987, almost 40 years after Israel…

The invading forces took control of the Arab areas and immediately attacked Israeli forces and several Jewish settlements. As a result of the war, Israel retained…

UNHCR has also estimated the percentage of Syrian refugees around the globe. There are 42% in Germany and Serbia. There are 40% in Sweden, Hungary, Austria, Netherlands, and Bulgaria. Yet, there is only 17% in all other countries such as Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, and Iraq. Some of these countries are welcoming refugees while some are treating them cruelly. In Germany, there is an estimate of almost 800,000 refugees. In Germany, the refugees are treated as if it is their own country. They are…
