Jewish-Arab Conflict

This conflict is between Israel and Palestine. Israel wanted land and gained it in 1967. Palestine tried to take it back in 1973 and failed. Then Palestine resisted Israel by terrorist attacks, plane high jacking and a slaughter of the Olympic athletes of 1972. Then young Palestinians took terrorism in their own hand against Israel by disobeying the laws of Israel for young teenagers. Some people in Israel wanted to give Palestine the land they gained back for peace between them. Peace efforts started to take place with the peace treaty of 1979. But this had little effect. In 1993 Israel and the PLO made an agreement that Palestine was to own Gaza and the West Bank city of Jericho. Israel was unhappy with this because is was not independence but a separation of land. Israel started to grow again and this made Palestinians angry with them. This caused more attacks on Israel. Because of this Israel doubted the peace treaty and distrusted Arafat who was killed by a Jewish law student. A new prime minister was elected and peace took a slower process.
