What do you know about a ceasefire between Israelis and Palestinians?

Who is to blame for the Arab-Israeli conflict?

Answer 1Everyone is to blame for the continuing conflict. Israelis are continuing to build settlements in the West Bank and Blockade Gaza, preventing the Palestinians from properly developing a State of their own. Palestinian organizations like Hamas refuse to recognize Israel as a Jewish State. American benefactors support Israel without encouraging it to abandon the practice of the settlements. Arab Nations do not try to engage Israel openly and honestly and believe in holding the Palestinians in refugee camps while they continue to demand that Israel host all of the refugees, something which they know is a non-starter with Israel.Answer 2Palestine. the Israelis had control of the land first, but the Palestinians seized it from them thousands of years ago.Answer 3In basest terms: GodThe differences between the countries started out being religious, with each claiming that their own religion is the one that should have the region, it has since turned into a political issueAnswer 4God is to blame. As well as the Germans, British, Americans and French. And, of course, the Israelis and Palestinians

Is Israel right in killing Palestine?

It is unclear what "killing Palestine" means. Palestine is landmass and cannot be killed in any current understanding of that term. If "killing Palestine" is meant to mean "killing Palestinians", then no, Israel has no right to arbitrarily kill Palestinians. However, Israel currently finds itself in a situation where Palestinians Militants are attacking Israeli civilians and attempting to penetrate Israeli borders. These violent acts invoke Israel's right to self-defense, which Israel has just like every other nation has. In those cases, Israel has the right to defend itself up to and including the elimination of the threat.

Can the palestinians override a USA veto from the security council with resoluution 377 know as uniting for peace?

No, a veto is a veto.

Why Israel is a hatred country to Muslims?

Answer AMost of this goes through the roots of each people. Israel stems from Jacob, while many of the Arab nations, many of which are Muslims, stem from Esau and Ishmael. One huge question is that of inheritance, as each claim their ancestor to be the rightful heir. I do know this age-old strife is mentioned in the Bible, but I'm not as knowledgeable concerning the Quran. With this question of inheritance comes the question of land. Both have claims to the same plots of land, both of which are ancient claims which run deep.Another issue is conflicting religions, as both Judaism and Islam claim their individual God to be the one and only God. This has some ties to each nation's ancient roots as well.________________________________________________________________Answer BNot all Israelis are Jews and not all Jews are Israelis. Muslims never hate Jews. They call them people of the book. They share worshiping same God. Many religious rules, morals, and diets are similar. Muslims believe in the prophet Moses and the holy book Torah.However, Israelis occupied an Arab land and expelled the original people (the Palestinians) from their homes and lands. The Arabs (Muslims and Christians) made a proposal for the Israelis to withdraw from the land occupied in war 1967 by Israel and to allow the Palestinians to have their own state. The negotiations are obstructed by many objections. This creates some enmity between Arabs and Israel although some countries have official and formal ties with Israel.

When did the Arab-Israeli Conflict take place?

Since the Palestinians first started being called "Palestinians" in 1948. Before that, there were skirmishes with the local Arab people as far back as the 1920's.Since the concept of "Palestinians" was invented, around the late 1940s.

What country had the apartheid?

I think this term is peculiar to the Union of South Africa. It refers not only to the division between the white and blacks, but the the division between the English and the Affikaaners.

How can you get Israelis and Palestinians to get along?

You would have to redo about 2000 years of tension. I know a peaceful Palestinian, and he is VERY outspoken about the NEED to create a Palestinian state. The Jews have been kicked out of just about every country they lived in. They also NEED there own country. In fact, after world war 2, in 1948, the various countries in power managed to carve out a country for the Jews called Israel. The Arabic countries in that area signed the papers, agreeing to it. Now they apparently want to back out of the deal.

How could he agree to z war movie and they use the wall in Palestine does he know what this wall mean to the Palestinians are they zombies they have nothing Palestinians love you brad how could you?

Looking for symbolism in a science fiction movie like that is giving them too much credit. In that movie everyone is equally affected by the zombie plague.

What are the people in Israel like?

The people who live in Israel are Muslim, Druze, Christian, Jewish, Atheist, Hindu, Buddhist,liberal, conservative, and socialist, among others. They were born in Russia, Canada, the USA,Israel, Brazil, Argentina, Iraq, India, Yemen, China, Iran, and Africa, among other places. Theyspeak Hebrew, English, Russian, Arabic, Farsi, and Spanish, among other languages. Most of them,though not all, share the common characteristics of possessing two legs, two arms, and a head,and putting their pants on one leg at a time. Citizens of Israel are known as "Israeli".

What does Israel want from Palestine?

Israeli or Jewish PerspectiveIsraelis and Jews want the Palestinians to be a partner for peace. Israelis are most concerned with living their day to day lives without the fear of a suicide bomber exploding in the streets, qassam or katyusha rockets raining down on them from the skies, and such a frigid relationship with their neighboring Arab States. Most Israelis want more Palestinians to be like Salam Fayyad, a man who represents the idea that Palestinians can build a successful and peaceful country that can live alongside (and not instead of) a Jewish State and has actually begun to implement change on the ground. The Israeli military in the West Bank has noted how cooperative and effective the newly trained Palestinian Police in the West Bank are and are proud that such a thing exists, both because it makes their duties less dangerous, but also it gives hope to the Two-State Solution. Now, the political structure in Israel favors minority viewpoints and as such has resulted in a very conservative government (perhaps more conservative than at any other point in history) and that government has a very aggressive policy towards the West Bank and Gaza and is very skeptical about what an independent Palestine can bring, but this is not a majority Israeli view.As concerns the view below, Jews and Arabs did not live side by side in Israel/Palestine before the time of Jesus. The Arabs only arrived in Israel/Palestine during the conquest of the Levant in 634-638 CE by the Muslims under Caliph Omar. There were Jews and non-Jews in Israel/Palestine prior to the Muslim invasion, but the non-Jews were other indigenous Levantine peoples who did not identify as Arab.Palestinian or Arab PerspectiveIsrael would like to see all of the Palestinian territory under its control, hence the building of the wall, the confiscation of land owned by Palestinians, the destruction of farmland and orchards, the annihilation of entire villages and cities, and the bulldozing of homes, building illegal settlements in Palestinian territories. The recent barbaric attacks on Gaza are evidence of Israels desire to wipe out entire groups of people, much the same way the Jews were killed in Germany. Some believe that Israel would not stop at taking what's left of Palestine, but also Jordan, Syria, Lebanon and Egypt, and preferably without any Arabs (Muslims and Christians). The Israelis tout the concept of wanting peace with the Arabs only to appease certain influential groups in Europe and the US; however, their actions speak much louder than any agreement on record. There is a difference between Israelis and Jews. Jews believe that Palestine is the land that was promised to them by God after their exodus from the land of the Pharaohs. This land, however, belongs to Palestinians-the original inhabitants of the area. Ironically, Jews and Arabs lived side by side long before the time of Jesus.Israel wants the Palestinian land. they have been in war for more than 60 years. they have many killed Palestinians but we(Palestinians) know that it will be our country once again because it is ours from the first place.

Why do the Israelis and Palestinians hate each other?

Answer 1Not all Jews hate Palestinians and not all Palestinians hate Jews, but the ones that do have many reasons. One reason of hatred that arises between them is that many of the Palestinians have ties with Hamas, and some other terrorist organizations. The reason that Jews have hatred toward those involved with Hamas and terrorist organizations is mainly because of goals of the organizations, and also because of their deceitful manor, especially in treaties and agreements with Israel. Another reason can be because of the hatred many of the Palestinians have toward the Jews, much of which comes from the Palestinians beliefs in Islam.One reason for Jews' problem with Islam is because of the teachings of the prophet Muhammad. Many of these teachings called for the destruction of all other religions, and especially the Jews' religion because of the very decent of Muhammad's followers, fellows, and perhaps Muhammad himself. The very split between the religions, Islam, and Judaism, comes from Ishmael, and Isaac. The children of Isaac mainly became Jews and were promised a certain land. The children of Ishmael mainly became Islamic, and lived in the lands and the lands surrounding, that the Jews were promised. Many times the Jews forced the children of Ishmael, and others, out of their promised land, through war.Palestinians today usually identify themselves as Palestinians for two reasons. Firstly the land known as Israel today was once known as part of Trans-Jordan, and also Palestine. After the end of the war between the Allies and the Ottoman Empire, the British Empire declared the territory of Palestine to become a home of the Jews, however there were some Arabs living in the area. Thousands of Jews moved into the area and began improving the land and the area prospered. Secondly came the Arab-Israeli war of 1948 where many Arabs were displaced from their home countries where many came in as refugees to the future Israel. People affected by either of these reasons, who were, or are, Arabs, often identify themselves as Palestinians. It is for the reason that the Jews believe that these Palestinians are trying to take the lands of the Jews of Israel for themselves that the Jews have begun to hate the Palestinians; because many of the Jews believe that the Palestinians are claiming current Israeli, and Jewish, lands for themselves, and through violent means are taking their lands, do some of the Jews hate the Palestinians.Answer 2Because the Jews want all the lands that Palestinians are living on.Answer 3Jews do not hate Palestinians, it is Palestinian terrorists that hate the Jews. Forcing Israelis to take undesirable action to protect their citizens from attacks.Answer 4Not ALL Jews hate Palestinians. Of course there will always be a group of people who hate another group. SOME Jews hate Palestinians because of the events that is going on over there. Palestinians felt threatened; their homeland was taken away from them, they were kicked out of their homes and out of the countries, and people looked down on them. Over the years, sadness and anger was formed over the lose of their land, the deaths of family members and friends, and the destruction of their land. You can't blame the Palestinians to be anger. Some retaliated and that retaliation is why some Jews hate Palestinians.Answer 5Not all Jews hate Palestinians and not all Palestinians hate Jews, but the ones that do have various reasons. The problems began with the advent of Zionism which is an ideology calling for a homeland for all Jews in historic Palestine. Up until this time, Jews who have always lived in historic Palestine existed in relative harmony among both Muslim and Christian Palestinians.Prior to Israel's 1948 declaration of Independence mass Jewish immigration to Palestine began. Thousands upon thousands of European Jews flooded into Palestine. The native Palestinians were of course dismayed by this especially seeing as the Jews showed great hostility towards the natives often excluding them from jobs. Similarly American settlers who arrived to the Americas showed great hostility toward the Native Americans. This is a common trend in all colonial conquests.In 1948 Israel declared 'Independence' in what was once Palestine. Over 400 Palestinian villages were destroyed and their peoples forced to flee their homeland. There are many recorded instances of massacres being carried out by Jewish terrorist organisations such as the Irgun and Stern Gang against Palestinian civilians. The hatred & violence between Palestinians and Zionist Jews was born.It must be noted that not all Palestinians are Muslim. Prior to the ethnic cleansing of Palestine in 1948 nearly 20% of Palestine's population were Christians. These Christians were mainly to be found in Bethlehem and Nazareth. This is why many argue that the hatred between Palestinians and Zionist Jews is not a religious but national struggle. Many of the first Palestinian "terrorists" or "freedom fighters" [depending on which view you take] were Palestinian Christians. Today Palestinian Christian makeup only 2% of the Palestinian population. Research has shown that the dwindling numbers are due the Israel's continued occupation and oppression of the Palestinians. Palestinian Christians find it easier to move the western countries as they find more tolerance toward them because of their shared Christian faith.Many Israeli Jews believe that the Palestinians main goal is to "drive the Jews into the sea". However Palestinians believe that Israel's continued settlement expansion into Palestinian land is slowly destroying any hope of an independent Palestinian homeland promised to them by both Israel and the International Community. The Irony is that Palestinians often cite that it is the Israeli state through continued expansionism which is actively driving the Palestinians into the sea. This can be one reason as to why the two parties may hate each other.Another reason why Israeli Jews may hate Palestinians is because of the relatively recent phenomenon of suicide bombers which targeted Israeli civilians. However the Palestinians see such actions as a natural reaction by an oppressed people and often cite statistical figures such as; on average 15 Palestinian civilians are killed by Israel's military to every one Israeli who is killed by a Palestinian militant. For this reason organizations like Hamas are seen as 'freedom fighters' by many Palestinians including Christian Palestinians but are viewed as 'terrorists' by the vast majority of Israeli Jews.There are more reasons why the two parties may hate each other. The following list is just a few:1) Palestinian children may grow up hating Jews as in most cases the only Jew they have seen has been an Israeli soldier.2) Israeli Jews often have never met any Palestinians (except for the 20% of Palestinians who live in Israel). All they know of Palestinians is what they have seen or read in the news. This may be explained through the segregation policies of the Israeli Government.3) Thousands of Palestinians are held in Israeli jails often without charge or trial for months on end. This includes many children.4) Israeli Jews may see the Palestinians as a burden to the realization of a 'Jewish state' as they tend to have higher birth rates.5) Palestinians often feel humiliated as they are often held at Israeli checkpoints for hours on end and in many cases are harassed by Israeli soldiers. One extreme case was the recent footage of Israeli soldiers shooting a unarmed bound and blind folded Palestinian in the foot for no reason. There have been reports by human rights organizations of pregnant Palestinian women giving birth at checkpoints because Israeli soldiers have refused the woman entry to get to a hospital. The Israel Human Rights Organisation B'tsalem has many reports on Palestinians who have died at Israeli checkpoints because they were refused access to medical treatment.These are of course not all the factors which are involved in the causes of hatred in the Holy Land. Religious ignorance may also play a part. For example many Israeli Jews believe that Islam which most Palestinians follow is intolerant toward other faiths. However Judaism and Christianity have thrived in Palestine for over 1500 years under Islamic rule. This is the reason why Synagogues and Churches still remain standing today in holy cities such as Jerusalem and Bethlehem. Palestinian Christians have existed in historic Palestine for well over 2000 years. They live in relative harmony with Muslim Palestinians and often regard each other as brothers. Some Palestinians believe that all Jews wish to ethnically cleanse Palestine of all non-Jews. This is because many religious Jews in Israel view Palestine-Israel as a land for the Jews only. They believe that the land was promised to them by God. They also believe that they have divine permission to drive the Palestinians out from their homeland. However there are many secular Jews who do not hold these fundamental Jewish tenants. There are also some (1%) of Orthodox Jews who are completely anti-Zionist meaning they do not recognize the state of Israel. These Jews are even have a seat within Palestinian parliament.Conclusion:As we can see the conflict between in Palestine-Israel is very complex as are the reasons for hatred. As was the case with South Africa peace and reconciliation can only be achieved among equals. An end to Apartheid in South Africa saw in end to violence and paved the way for reconciliation. Desmond Tutu the South African archbishop has compared the current treatment of Palestinians under the Israeli Government as being worse than that of Apartheid South Africa. Unless a similar solution which freed the blacks of South Africa from oppression and brutality is found in Palestine-Israel the cycle of hatred will continue.Answer 6What Jews are angry about as concerns Palestinians is their consistent denial of historical wrongdoing and segregation (such as the dhimmi status, the jizya and kharaj taxes, and humiliation in general) towards Jews (preferring to believe like Answer 5 that everything was perfect under Muslim rule), their failure to educate their children in the virtue of tolerance (instead teaching them literalist Qur'anic interpretations which inform them that Jews are the children of swine and that jihad will not end until all Jews die), the promulgation of anti-Semitic teachings (such as the Protocols of Zion and Holocaust-Denial), their desecration of Jewish holy sites, repression of their Christian minorities and other vast human rights abuses in their native countries, their tacit or explicit endorsement of violence against the State of Israel, and a failure to accept the validity of a Jewish State.Palestinians are angered primarily, as concerns the Jews, with the issue of Jews forcibly resettling Palestinians and having eliminated hundreds of Palestinian cities. This grave violation of the Rights of the Palestinians greatly incenses them. Another issue that bothers the Palestinians and other Arabs is the Jews have, in spite of their numbers, garnered an important place in the world economy. Even though most rational Arabs realize that Jews do not actually control the economy, there are a disproportionate number of Jews in prominent economic and political positions, whereas Palestinians have been almost completely excluded from the World Economy, even by their fellow Arabs. Palestinians are also angry that Israel appears to be expanding its territory with its annexation of East Jerusalem (in contravention of the Arab understanding of UN Resolution 242) and continued settlement of the West Bank. Jews outside of Israel do not criticize these actions.

Why do Jewish People feel threatened by Palestinians?

For Jews, any criticism of the State of Israel is going to be difficult to take, because Jews are naturally patriotic for their homeland. However, criticism of Israel should be concerning its policies and founding ideologies. What many Palestinians do when they protest the State of Israel is to use historical Anti-Semitic arguments in addition to Anti-Zionist arguments. This is to say that they draw caricatures of Israeli leaders with hooked noses, for example, or that they use images and text from Anti-Semitic texts like the Protocols of the Elders of Zion to criticize Israel. This combined with the statements of what the extremist Palestinians threaten to do to the Jewish population of Israel makes Jews feel threatened that if the Palestinians ever did come to power, that they would behave in a thoroughly Anti-Semitic fashion. This is a story to illustrate the fear. When Jaffa surrendered to Israeli forces in 1948, many of the Arabs ran away to positions in Gaza. Some stayed and peaceably surrendered. The Palestinian fighters were shivering and completely surprised when they were placed in normal prisons as POWs. When asked why they were shocked about Israeli treatment and eventual repatriation to Egypt, they responded, "because we expected you to do to us what we would have done to you". Jews do not want to know what they would have done to the Israelis.
