Israel P.L.O. Peace Treaty The Middle East has always been known as the Holy Land, the land of the Bible. For centuries, prophets have walked there, nations have collided and conquerors have come and gone. While Jews claim a three thousand-year-old attachment to this ancient land, Arabs also sta...

Israel's Economy 1.) I believe any country should be able to qualify for admission to the World Trade Organization regardless of its human rights policies. Israel has many main human rights. The Government usually respects the human rights of its citizens. Some of Israeli human righ...

"The gravest danger facing America and the World today is outlaw regimes that seek and possess nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons." This line from Presidents Bush's 2003 State of the Union Address underlines what is in store for our nation. The risk to our country is increasing more and mor...

Jimmy Carter: A Vision for Peace James Earl Carter, the thirty-ninth elected President of the United States of America, will go down in history as the first, and possibly only, Western leader who brokered a peace deal between an Arab country and the Jewish State of Israel, to the satisfactio...

Before 9/11 we were living a carefree lifestyle. We traveled to and from without worrying about terrorist hitting us. We did all the things that we liked to do without thinking that one day we too could be like Israel or one of those other countries that get terrorist acts all the time. We were at ...

Terrorism in the Webster's New American Dictionary is defined as "the systematic use of intense fear as a means of coercion." In this day and age, the term terrorism is more than just the use of intense fear as a means of coercion but includes the use of terrorism as a means of r...

The Golan region, which lies between Israel and Syria, has been a place of much heated contention for many years.

The present-day conflict that exists between the Israelis and the Palestinians can easily be related to the war that took place in Joshua and Judges. In both cases Israeli's had to fight for the land that they believe belongs to them. In the book of Joshua the Lord instructs the Israelites to conq...

A possible solution to Israeli Palestinian peace is very hard to come by. Evidently, not all Israelis & Palestinian are accepting of the other, or open to the reality that they are each other's neighbors.

Two examples of this can be found in the events that lead up to WWII and the constant conflict in the Middle Eas...

The conflict between Palestine and Israel goes back thousands of years and has led to a number of drastic consequences, affecting peoples and current events all over the world to this very day.

Failures of the Road Map The Quest for Peace in the Middle East Another Peace Process has failed in the endless conquest to find a way to bring peace to the Palestinians and Israelis. It is not surprising. Anyone who read the Road Map proposed by the Bush administration understood that it w...
