Can anybody tell me where the Israel - Palestinian probelms began and whose fault it is...... till today?

Answer 1

The issue is not religion, but land. The Allies carved out a piece of land for the Jews after the atrocities afflicted by Nazi Germany. Problem would have been solved if US were prepared to compensate the Palestinians.

So who's fault is it? Nazi supporters, UK and US.

Answer 2

The conflict began millenia ago - this is just a continuation of that conflict.

But the fault for today's conflict is with the Palestinians and their Arab brethren. They won't stop the hate and the violence.

Whether it was right or wrong to create Israel is a moot point now - it exists, and the Israelis will fight to the death to keep it. So, why can't everyone grow up and accept the fact of Israel's existance?

As for those who were displaced - it sucks but the Pali's Arab brothers did the same to a similar number of Jews, who lost their homes, businesses and fortunes. Israel took these people in; why did the Arabs not take the Palestinians in? What uncharitable and callous people the Arabs appear to be in this matter, no?

But the Palestinians still seek death, destruction and war, not peace, not prosperity, not a future for their children. They are at fault for the continued violence.

Answer 3

In high school they taught me the jews bought the land piece by piece and moved in, created their own state after they owned the majority. The palestinians did not like this....bla blaa In college the text said the Jews put on a front by buying a few parcels, but actually slaughtered the muslims living there and took their land. The class discusses how America helped create the state to have a base in the middle east, to keep the Muslims weak as to prevent any future incursions with America (smart move on our part) The palestinians have hated the Jews for the wrongs done to them, and antagonize the jews any way possible. The jews retaliate by killing people and disrupting economics of the region as punishment. Some palestinians will not allow any type of peace as they believe the Jewish state is illegal and want it gone. Other moderate palestinians are more inclined to accept the state and try to live in peace. The end facts are that Israeli government is an extension of America to maintain power, they have an eye for an eye mentality, I see no peace anytime soon until the U.N. is given power by the U.S. If the UN is allowed power it will be a one voice world, (UN one country=one vote democracy) This voice will be the only thing powerful enough to discourage the bloodshed. Otherwise this will last another thousand years..........

Answer 4

The conflict began millenia ago: Roman emporer Titus originally kick all of the jews out of Isreal in the first century, so the palistinians moved in. So no jews lived in the homeland of the jews, and the attachment of the palestinians gradually began to increase untill it was their homeland too. It also became one of the holy places of islam; the Dome of the Rock is where Mohammad was said to have ascended into heaven.
During the 19th century, a movement arose called Zionism in which the diaspora would move back to Isreal and reclaim it. This was made official by the Balfor Declaration, a decree which set a up two countries:Isreal and Palistine. But both counries wanted control of Jeruselem. A series of wars followed, with Isreal being backed by the United States, and Palistine being backsed by the Arab Leauge. Isreal won, and it took away Palistine's political soverignty without inteegrating its land our peoples into Isreal.
So now we come to the current situation; the Israli's have hygenany over the Palistinians, with the West Bank and Gaza in the hands ofthe Palistinians.
The question of fault is riddiculous! This is a conturies old conflict, and atrocities have been commited on all sides. So it is everyone's, and no one's.

Answer 5

Propaganda. in case you spotted, one element that expert-Israelis are continuously citing is that Palestinians attempt to do away with Israel, yet oddly, ignore this is Israel taking land, no longer Palestinians. It became Palestinians who provided peace with Israel retaining very very nearly each dunam of land it possessed. The Arab international provided Israel finished recognition, normalized relatives- and all they had to do became honour international regulation. no longer ONE concession became mandatory! As petit spoke of, Anvil's assertion is hogwash and actually disproved- yet on that needs to be addressed- past circumstances. of course he does not propose Israel, because of the fact Israel refuses to handle the Jordan Valley, borders, refugees, Jerusalem...All Palestinians % is a halt to the land grabs throughout the time of negotiations! in the adventure that your neighbour is making an attempt to construct a storage on supplies you the two considers yours, what's the 1st element a choose does until now making a decesion? Your neighbour is issued a "end and desist" order until the priority is resolved! for yet another poster to improve the 1939 White Paper and declare it as an Arab failure is going to coach what propaganda can do. Christians, Muslims or maybe some Jews regular the White Paper, which observed as for a united democratic Palestine. It became ZIONISTS that did no longer. in fact the paper of course stated that Britain became incorrect to tension Jewish immigration.. @shay, i'm surprised you could make this assertion, "i does no longer reward terrorism with the prize of a sparkling separate state." you're conscious how Israel got here to be by ability of utilising terrorism that places something Hamas does to shame? one element i spotted approximately your rates, they are all from Jordanians. and that i could anticipate Jordanian leaders to assert such issues, afterall 0.5 of Jordanians have been Palestinians!

Answer 6

It is the fault of the Palestinians who are not interested in peace with Israel.

This is demonstrated time and again. Whenever Israel makes a concession and gives up land, the peace doesn't last as long as it takes for the ink on the paper to dry.

I seriously doubt it has anything to do with land, for the Palestinians, who have an unnatural and religiously motivated hatred for Israel.

Answer 7

the conflict between the two countries started because of a piece of land that both claim are their own. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict centers on conflicting claims to the region known in the 1880s under the Ottoman Empire as the Land of Palestine. Under Ottoman rule, Palestine had substantial regional independence. The area was inhabitated predominantly by Arab Muslims with smaller groups of Christians (mostly Arab) and Jews. The issue is contested whether Palestine was mostly barren or inhabited, and the size of the Arab population at that time is a matter of dispute, with most Arab historians claiming a far larger Arab population than most Israeli historians will concede.

By far most of the world's Jews at that time lived in the Jewish diaspora, predominantly in Eastern and Central Europe. The modern Zionist movement, initiated in Europe, held that the Jewish people had a right to a state of their own, and increasingly came to hold that this state should be in their historic homeland, which they referred to as the Land of Israel.

so to make the long (very long) story short, the conflict started because of a fight over a piece of land.

Answer 8

Abraham had 2 sons, so the old testament claims. The oldest was from his wife's handmaiden, and is believed to be the father of the modern Palestine. The youngest, became the father of the 12 tribes.

These problems started with the conquest of the Canaanites, and have been occurring for the last 3000 years or so. It is nothing new.

Answer 9

Probably in the 1920s, with the first Arab riots in British Palestine. Some powerful Arabs, who allied themselves with Hitler some 15 years later, objected to living near Jews and provoked the masses into rioting. Too often, the British did nothing to stop the attacks, and in some cases encouraged the Arabs. As a reward, 80% of Palestine was given to the Arabs to become (Trans)Jordan.

Answer 10

it started in 1881, when jews fleeing pogroms in russia felt that the only way to stop the constant persecutions would be to have their own homeland.

it picked up when Herzl put it down in writing and created the world zionist movement 15 years later.

it got superpower approval in 1919 when britain wrote up the balfour declaration, declaring support for the jewish homeland in palestine.

it became a fact in 1948, when the UN voted for partition of the land. the arabs didn't accept it. seven arab countries attacked Israel... and lost.

it got worse in 1967 when during the six-day war Israel succeeded in conquering loads of territory from arab states... in six days. but it also gave a chance for peace, because a deal was now possible: 1967 land in exchange for peace.

i could go on, but i can't really answer you about whose fault this is or was. it depends who you speak to, cause everybody's got an argument.

Answer 11

It's both of them. It really heated up after WWII when the UN established Israel as a state. But the two are actually blood cousins who have bee at odds for about 2000 years.
