Discussion: Israel And Palestine
"The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is not a conflict rooted in religious difference and is not a holy or religious war. Rather, it is fundamentally a struggle between two competing nationalisms." Discuss this quotation. Do you agree that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict should be viewed as a conflict between two peoples over contested land and territory? To what extent do religion and religiously-motivated actors need to be incorporated into an explanation of the conflict? [Note: if you answered this question for the midterm, feel free to note if your views have changed or remained the same].
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
