Does the Israeli-Palestinian conflict represent a struggle of right against right?

Yes. This is a conflict where both sides, the Israelis and the Palestinians, have rights to certain piece of land in the Southern Levant and those rights are in direct conflict. Jews believe they have a right to their ancestral homeland of Israel and Arabs believe they have a right to their ancestral possession of Palestine. Unfortunately, these two rights conflict because Israel and Palestine overlap.


Which nation was created by the actions of the Arabs and Jews?

Arabs are descendants of whom?

The modern definition of an Arab is anyone who identifies as an Arab (Maxine Rodinson, The Arabs). Thus, most Berbers of North Africa now identify as Arabs and therefore are Arabs. Similarly, the Palestinians identify as Arabs, although they are mainly descended from the ancient Canaanites and Philistines (Sami Hadawi, Bitter Harvest: A Modern History of Palestine). The Arabs of ancient times were a Semitic people who originated in and around the Arabian peninsula.Biblical and Quranic tradition is that the Arabs were descended from Ishmael, son of Abraham.Another AnswerSince your asking for the descendants of the Arabs they are people form saudia Arabia and the gulf all other middle eastern countries are not Arab in ethincity since they were invaded by them.

Why do Arabs claim a right to Palestine?

The Arabs claim a right to Palestine because many of them used to live there in harmony with Christian and Jewish neighbours. The whole situation was very badly planned in the beginning going back to the Balfour Declaration in the 1920's. The United nations actions in 1948 did nothing to help, and should be changed giving both sides some land. -Unfortunately both sides are now entrenched in such violently opposing points of view that a fair resolution will never be found.

Jews are native to Western Asia. Modern Jews, however, do not acknowledge their heritage as Arabs and claim to be White.Jewish answer:The above anonymous answer contradicts itself, since Western Asia has as its native groups not only Arabs. We Jews are indeed natives of Western Asia, as DNA tests have shown; and we have never concealed or denied that fact. Jews and Arabs are related and are both Semitic, and neither group claims to have had its origin in Europe or as Caucasians.


Can the custodial parent claim both children and the earned income credit on their tax return if the non-custodial parent is behind on child support but usually you each claim one child?

The custodial Parent has the right to claim both children, but in your case if the NC parent is behind they will automatically take it from their tax refund anyway. But as with any agreement if it states the NC gets to claim one then you can only claim one. If there is not an agreement in that way, then the custodial has the right. The arrears owed to the C has no affect on the claiming rights of another.
