Palestine Liberation Organization

My first theme to choose from the fall of the Ottoman Empire to the 2011 against authoritarianism is Zionism. First off, Zionism is the belief that the Jewish people felt that they had a right inherit a rightful state of their own during the end of the 18th and 19th centuries. Jews believed that such a Jewish state should be located around central Europe and even at one time in North America. The decision was later decided that the final resting place was the holy land in Jerusalem, Israel…

What the author meant was that he using the representation of the photographs to interpret the images of Palestinians of how they were unfairly treated in Palestine and eventually in hope of reclaiming their identity. Nevertheless, the Palestinians cannot be able to tell their past experience as the majority of the people in different countries considered to be less sympathetic about the Palestinians. In addition…

The process of Israel becoming a country began with the British mandate. The British mandate was a process that would declare the land of palestine as a safe haven for Jewish people. In 1947, the jewish settlements caused the Arabic natives to be moved to the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. From 1948 to 1949, Israel was at war with the jews that had come into their country and fought to regain independence. This lead to Israel becoming a country after the war and being accepted by the United…

When people hear about the Arab-Israeli conflict, they start thinking about how did it start? During the late 19th century, Jews came back from Europe to Palestine where they previously existed. The Jewish people indicated that they were met with violent opposition from the Arabs especially the Palestinians. The same story is claimed to be still happening till today. The claimed story that was just told is not true. What actually happened is that there was a Zionist movement from Europe after…

Although generally perceived as only a threat to Israeli national security, with policy being created to reflect that, it is important to look at the other side of things. Despite the many obvious and potential negative impact that the Arab Spring could cause in Israel, many will also argue for the positive. Israel's former Military Intelligence, Amos Yadlin, stands firm with his hope for progression in the Arab Spring movement stating, "The long-term changes in the Arab world are a great…

The right of return for the Palestinians is still an ongoing discussion, whether the Palestinians deserve to come back, or the Israelis will let them come back. During the Arab - Israeli War 800,000 Palestinians were forced to flee due to the conflict. The Israelis were going into Palestinian cities and forcing them to leave, while other Palestinians left before the Israelis came. Nearby countries and territories like Lebanon, Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Gaza Strip, and the West Bank set up…

At the time immigration into Palestine was quickly increasing. Zionists hope was to claim land and remain safe there, ultimately colonizing their land. Foreign powers contributed to the conflict too. In 1917 the British promised to aid the Jewish journey to their “home land” by gaining…

promised the Arabs throughout the region to create a great Arab nation, the British disown their promise and promote the establishment of the Jews in Palestine by the Balfour Declaration in 1917 (Cohen). Britain, which received the mandate over Palestine after the fall of the Ottoman Empire, promised the Zionist leaders the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jews, provided they do not disturb non-Jewish populations. This shift corresponds indeed better to the British interests…

influx of Jews to Palestine from the time the Great War ended. As new immigrants, they purchased land to live and farm on, but then banned Arabs from living on that land. The Jews’ goal was to establish localities based around farming. Additionally, these communities would be for Jews only, meaning they would not hire any Arab employees. The Arabs in the Palestinian Mandate greatly resented this trend. The British sought to make peace between the Zionists and Arab nationalists in Palestine, but…
