Best Answer

The Palestinian Territories are located on the borders of Israel, Jordan, and Egypt in the southern Levant (western Middle East). They are important in the Arab-Israeli Conflict since much of the conflict hinges on whether or not those territories will become the basis to an independent state of Palestine or not.

What religions are in conflict in Palestine?

It depends what you mean by "Palestine". If you are referring exclusively to the Palestinian Territories, there are abuses by Muslim Palestinians of Christian Palestinians and the defacing of their holy sites and monuments. Additionally, there is a conflict between Jewish Israeli Settlers and Israeli Soldiers and Palestinians (both Muslim and Christian). If you are using "Palestine" as a shorthand for "Israel and Palestine", then the religions in the conflict are Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. However, those religions are not at conflict. The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict is a ethnic/nationalist conflict where religions are used as ethnic identifiers (similar to the 1990s in Yugoslavia). It is not a theological conflict.
