In 1952, a treaty between Israel and Germany was created called The Luxembourg Agreements.…

    This article speaks about the recent new that a coalition of seventy partners, which includes the United States, has gotten involved in the Syrian Uprising by pledging to donate millions of dollars and communications equipment to the rebel groups in Syria who are opposing Assad's rule. This move by the U.S and other Western powers symbolizes the start of a new type of involvement in Syria, perhaps a more direct one. This move by these powers have caused many Syrian rebels and people observing all over the world to question whether diplomacy and/or sanction methods can truly end the Syrian regime's oppression of their people. This more direct shift of action by the Western and Arab allies of the Syrian rebels toward balancing the military balance in Syria is dangerous regionally because the crisis there is similar to a proxy conflict, which could possibly aggravate sectarian tensions. The Syrian rebel army is currently overmatched by the regime forces in terms of weapons.…

    The Arab-Israeli War of 1948-49 was an extremely significant event in the history of Arab-Israeli conflict. At the time it was the first military conflict the new state of Israel has been involved in. Never before had its forces been truly tested in the field of conflict, and its military capabilities was still relatively unknown. However it was significant as it highlighted the true power the Israelis had, with the result of a crushing defeat for the Arabs, and the Israeli’s ability to retain the independence of their newly created state. However there is much disagreement over which side was in fact responsible for the ‘Nakba’ (catastrophe in Arabic). Although the Israeli success can be seen as major indicator of their military strength, it can also be judged that due to the weaknesses of the Arab coalition and the difficulties they faced during the war, this may have been the most significant factor in contributing to the ‘Nakba’.…

    The Israeli war for independence in 1948 begun when David Ben Gurion announced the establishment of the state of Israel on May 5th; and had a significant effect on events thereafter, all the way to the 6 day war of 1967, and beyond. When Gurion proclaimed the state of Israel, the Arab states where infuriated, immediately seeking to destroy this new country, because they viewed it as a ploy by western powers, such as the USA, to secure a foothold in the Middle East, and Israel was cast as the stooge of the USA by its neighbours.…

    To the Israelis, what they did seemed righteous and necessary, but the Palestinians who had been there for years prior to the Zionists infiltration in the region were suddenly 700,000 refugees. The Israel was now a nation and Jews from all around the world went to live there. A lot of them are from the US, but they still have family here which naturally would support the defense of Israel as part of their family might live there. Now there is a large constituency of Jews in America that not only support Israel, but oppose anything not pro-Israeli. The US pretty much has to align with Israel even if what it did was wrong, and the Palestinians are going to see the US as an enemy and spread to other countries in hope of getting those countries to ally against Israel.…

    Following the Second World War the Jewish community was in fierce conflict with Britain. Jews were fighting for a new life outside of Europe to escape the horrors of the holocaust and its affect on the Jewish community. This would lead to a declaration of independence of Israel from Palestine and sparked the Arab-Israeli conflict due to unrecognized independence and no compromise between the Arabs inhabiting the land of Israel and the chosen people of God. Israel would be accepted into the League of Nations on May 11th, 1949, further instilling the country as the Independent Jewish State long ago promised to them by God.12 Herzl’s ideas on political Zionism lead to the formation of modern day Israel, an important factor in the preservation of the way of life of the Jewish people. Many introduce Theodor Herzl as the founder of the State of Israel for his political ideology lead to its…

    Eban's Conception Of War

    • 261 Words
    • 2 Pages

    In Norman Finkelstein’s essay he is critiquing the main stream conception of the 1967 June war between Israel and Jordan, Syria, and Egypt as stated by Israeli Foreign Affairs spokesperson Abba Eban. Finkelstein challenges Eban’s assertions that Israel did not in any way provoke the war, as well as that the Israeli preemptive attack was defensible, and that Eban’s interpretation of UN Resolution 242 was in line with how the UN conceived it. To make these assertions Finkelstein points to historical documents and scholarship. In the case of Israeli diplomacy he argues that Eban’s agreement that Israel attempted to avoid the war is proved false by the fact that Israel preemptively attacked ignoring US mediation attempts, repudiated UN mediation,…

    Iron Cage

    • 2047 Words
    • 9 Pages

    In chapter one of The Iron Cage, Rashid Khalidi sets the stage for the premise of his book, by examining the conflicting evidence of the Palestinians’ plight. In order to do so, the narrative begins in 1948, following the eviction of more than half of the Arab Palestinian population as a result of the Arab – Israel conflict of that year. Khalidi goes on to enumerate a few of the respective differing Arab and Israel accounts of how it was that a people that once constituted the majority of the population of a land, became the minority. Revisionist Israeli historians have attempted to debunk traditional accounts that absolve Israel of any wrongdoing, such as the notion that Palestinians attacked the yishuv first, by looking at the newly opened Israeli, American, and British archives. Although Khalidi is appreciative of the latest attempts of objectivity, the author goes on to claim that Israeli revisionists continue to provide shortsighted narratives, because of an inability to incorporate Arab sources to the reinterpretations. Furthermore, Khalidi castigates Arab interpretations of the conflict as well, by noting the over emphasis they put on external causes, such as the superiority of the Israeli armed forces, or the alliance between Israel and Transjordan. Although Khalidi noticeably acknowledges many of the claims from both sides, his conclusion is nevertheless, that not enough attention has been paid to the internal reasons why Palestine as a nation has failed.…

    Lebanon's eastern borders meet with Syria, an Arabic country theoretically considered a strategic ally against the Zionist state located south of Lebanon: Israel. The Israeli-Arab conflict began in 1948 with the conquest of the land of Palestine by the Zionist movement. Almost thirty years later, Lebanon was struck by a long series of "earthquakes" that rendered the country a fragmented entity held together by a thin matrix. In precisely 1975, the tensions that had been building up as a result of the Zionist destabilization of the region ignited on Lebanese soil when 30 unarmed Palestinians on board a bus got slaughtered in the Ain El Remaneh region, buy supporters of the Phalange party.…

    The Yom Kippur War

    They slowly succeeded in pushing back their invaders. The United States sent aid to help Israel in their war effort. They sent over twenty two thousand tons of equipment to Israel in a one month period. This aid could have been the deciding factor in the Yom Kippur War. Without the United States of America’s help, Israel may not have been able to push back the invasion and regain their territory. It is also possible that the Israelis were already succeeding in their war effort before the United States decided to aid them. It could have just been President Richard Nixon’s way of saying that they will help the Israelis to oppose the Soviet Union, who were supporting the Arab nations. Either way, the aid was at least helpful in the final victory of Israel over Syria and…

    Syria now is bogged down in endless killing. Early in the uprising, Western support might have ousted Mr Assad and preserved Syria’s sectarian harmony., but the West held back. Now, after more than 110,000 people have died during 30 months of violence, it is too late. Like many civil-war leaders Mr Assad prefers to prolong the fighting rather than risk compromise. The rebels, too, battle on in the knowledge that surrender is likely to mean death.…
