In this article written by CNN, the conflict is clear that Israel and Palestine are two nations, which have been violently clashing for almost one hundred years. Recently the Prime Ministers of both countries have met to discuss peace treaties and ways to end the bloodshed in these countries. Israel was made a state on May 14, 1948 after the terror brought upon the Jewish people during WWII. Bodies of water, peninsula’s, and the violent country of Lebanon surround this region. The fate of Jerusalem is the main conflict in this conflict. The Palestinians have felt since the formation of Israel, that this land rightfully belongs to them. The have fought recently over the Gaza Strip and peace negotiations involving Palestinian prisoners have been in the works. Nothing however seems to be even initializing a start to the end of madness in the region. Israel comes off as more powerful militarily, but if they were to pile the assault onto Palestine there is fear that they may be attacked from all sides. At the moment there seems to be no way out of a conflict which has plagued to countries for a millennium.
