place over a century. In order to understand the conflict between these two cultures their collective histories must be taken into consideration. It was a long and hard path for the Jewish population to get a piece of land they can call their own. A land free of religious persecution.

“People fear what they don’t understand and hate what they can’t conquer.” This is a quote from Andrew Smith‚ an American author.
