The success of Operation Diamond, regarded as one of the most brazen operations conducted by Israel, was directly related to the thorough intelligence gathered by the Mossad and timely manner in which it was executed. “Operation Diamond was one of the most complex and sensitive operations ever conducted by Israel. An exceptional [example of] cooperation between the air force, and the intelligence and special task organization (the Mossad) brought to the landing of an Iraqi MiG-21 at an Israeli…

a modern phenomenon (Israeli-Palestinian conflict, 2014). After the end of World War I, the land that Jews and Arabs claimed was known as Palestine. Then, following the war in 1949, this land was separated into three areas: the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and the State of Israel (World Report, 2013). There are many reasons that caused the Israel - Palestine conflict such as water and land rights, border security and legalities concerning refugees. However, the most important reasons are the…

There are many who have gone through great depths to obtain a formal education. Striving through the strenuous institutionalized setting, through lectures, assignments, papers, and examinations, to finally being able to stand under the raining of square caps. But after all, what is this institutionalized setting; what is school? Most may claim that it is an inevitable step: a key to unlock doors and pathways, which would eventually lead one to a promising future. Others may perhaps refer it as a…

While glancing at comic book covers and inside the comic, it can give one a lot of insight as to what the comic book is about and the authors and or publishing companies’ values. It can be as simple as whether it is more cartoonist or realistic, colorful or dull, filled with lots of word bubbles or majority just art. It also can be more complex, such as the presence of females or African-Americans and how each is portrayed in comics. With the use of certain images and the style of art and…

more complex workings than most readers would expect. Ella Cinders by Bill Counselman and drawn by Charles Plumb is one such example of how much depth and thinking goes into making comic strips. The strips themselves talk about the adventures of a woman named Ella. Beneath that, every little detail on the strips, from the cartooning of the characters, framing choices, to the way the page itself is set up all plays a role in visually delivering the story. Framing choice is how the artist…

Camp David Accords, understandings amidst Israel and Egypt stamped on September 17, 1978, that drove in the going with year of a peaceful course of action between those two countries, the first such deal amidst Israel and any of its Arab neighbors.

Final Project Proposal: Political Cartoons The topic that I chose for my final project is political cartoons created during the time period of 1939 through 1945, and mostly focusing on the major event that occur during this time frame which is World War II. The main focus of my project will be on how the political cartoons created during 1939 through 1945 have contributed to our nation building as well as how educators use these political cartoons to help teach students about the events of World…

After the creation of the State of Israel and the displacement of thousands of people who lost their homes, the Palestinian nationalist movement began to regroup in the West Bank and Gaza, controlled by Jordan and Egypt, respectively, and in the refugee camps set up in other Arab countries. Shortly before the 1967 war, Palestinian organizations such as Fatah, led by Yasser Arafat formed the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and launched operations against Israel, first from Jordan and then…

The details and descriptions instilled in comics that I am going to talk to you about, do not do justice to what fantastic things you can find in a comic. It could take days, maybe years, maybe even five minutes; but, I am going to boil mine down to three topics in three different graphic novels. Think you can keep up with that? I think you can keep up with that. The three literary terms I am going to discuss upon are: The idea of framing when it comes to graphic novels, how coloring makes a…

Another main difficulty in the region is the settlements built by Israel in Palestinian lands. Israel continues to build small communities, or settlements in the region of the West Bank, which continues to anger many Palestinians, namely Hamas. There are some who believe that these settlements may violate the Fourth Geneva Convention, which relates to the stability of citizens during times of war (Beauchamp). Alternatively, however, others believe that they may not actually be in violation,…
