around and helping participants generate ideas if they ever got stuck. During this process we occasionally would check in with our client Josh and see what option or ideas he was leaning more towards. Some of the ideas that were generated from the six thinking hats and brainstorming stages were to open a petting zoo, become a dairy farmer, expand his farm to other farms complete his master’s degree, get a certification in agricultural or enter the…

The in-depth analysis of the MiG-21 and the discovery of its strengths and weakness led to air superiority during the Six Day and Yom Kippur Wars. The exploitation of strengths and weakness of the MiG-21 by the IAF allowed a less prominent aircraft, the Dassault Mirage III, to gain a competitive edge on the more advanced MiG-21. This aircraft was regarded as the most…

The two elements of thought that most significantly challenged the Israeli commander as he executed his mission to remove settlers from the occupied territory in Gaza are Point of View and Implications and Consequences. The element of Point of View posed the greatest challenge because the commander understood both the frustration of the settlers due to his emotional and personal ties to them and the strategic goals of his government. As a result of his compassion, he was further challenged by…

first social media site that everyone remember is actually the website called Six Degrees. The name came from the ‘six degrees of separation’ theory which was from 1997 to 2001. Six Degrees allowed users to create a profile and friend other users. They also allowed people who didn’t register as users to confirm friendships and connected quite a few people this way. Even though the youth today do not know anything about the six degrees, they now be on the popular websites today that everyone…

For the style of the hat that represents my identity, I chose the beanie. While formerly restricted to mainly hipsters, they’re now open, or more wearable, to everyone. I chose this style as beanies are quite comfortable, and that is my preferred state. Additionally, it is a pretty plain style compared to others as I don’t like to stand out too much. They also keep your head warm, and I’d much rather be warm than freezing. In addition, the color of my beanie would be black. Not only does black…

Wars. From being a leader in the Histradrut, working as Foreign Minister of Israel and eventually becoming the fourth Prime Minister of the country, Meir’s diplomatic and controversial role in Israeli politics was highlighted. In the lead, up to the Six Day War, Meir’s hard work as Foreign minister developing and enhancing Israel’s economy and social status was put on display. However, in her time as Prime Minister during the Yom Kippur War, Meir’s inability to establish peace contradicted her…

An important security question to note is the Bedouin smuggling activities along the Sinai border with Egypt. Though their movement in Israel is restricted by checkpoints and ID card checks are regular the smuggling business across the Sinai border is extensive. This is because of many factors, the biggest being Bedouin culture. Historically the Bedouin have never respected state borders, they did not believe the borders applied to them. Since the early 1900s, when the borders of states in the…

Their lack of fear caused two events to occur. One is the building of its military. To the Israeli’s it was a show of new found power and sovereignty, but to others like Egypt it is a scary thought to have such a powerful neighbor. As a growing threat Egypt and subsequent others were forced to think of worse case scenarios. This is a clear demonstration of a growing security dilemma in the Middle East. The other is the illusion that they were safe from attacks. Even as the date of the attack…

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. Whether the characters presently live in Israel, or have moved on from the region, the chaos from the country is incorporated into their lives. Tsabari was born in Israel, and is all too familiar with the horrors the wars have…
