Israeli-Palestine Conflict

Last week I learned in class about the different points of views in the Israeli-Palestine conflict. What we were studying made me realize how hard it is to define who is right and who is wrong. It is disturbing that violent conflicts like this still exist, and lots of innocent people get killed because of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. I found this interesting article about a palestinian woman who was killed by the Israeli because she was walking too close to the border.

I chose this article because it is a great example to show one of the millions of casualties that have occurred and still occur because of this conflict. The article talks about how a palestine woman was shot because she walked too close to the wall that divides Israel and the Gaza Strip. It also states how Israel agreed a cease fire since 2012. With this article we can see how this is not completely true and how unfair it is. This conflict has lead to a lot of violence and many innocent people have died.


This kind of things make the situation worse and worse every day. I think it is time that other countries intervene in this conflict. But every country has its own interest when they do things, and its very hard for a conflict like this to become peaceful. It is very unfair that people have to live in an environment full of violence and its sad no one does anything about it.
