The 1948 Israeli War of Independence
The 1948 Israeli War of Independence began when the United Nations decided to partition Palestine into separated Jewish and Arab states. The Arabs were not staisfied with the deal, as they wanted Palestine to be for Arabs only. They said that they would "fight for every inch of our country." Riots ensued almost immediately after the Partition Plan was approved. Arabs were able to take over many British military bases, and used the weaponry they acquired to launch attacks on Jewish communities. Jewish militias fought back, and after the British left Palestine, Israel was declared a state.
The 1948 War of Independence was a conflict that was instigated by the proposition of a compromise. For that reason, the topic is consistent with the theme of "Conflict and Compromise," though the...

Divided Nation - Israel/Palestine
July 2007
The furor surrounding Israel's rewriting of history schoolbooks reveals the tensions within Israeli society. Arab-Israelis claim they are institutionally discriminated against by the Jewish state. Ibrahim Dwery has been designing homes in Nazareth for 20 years. But when he tried to move there himself, he got a rude awakening. "The estate agent said 'we don't sell to Arabs'". Under Israeli law, not all citizens are equal. The law encourages Jewish immigration but denies residency to spouses from the Palestinian territories. "They are afraid the Arab population of Israel will increase", explains politician Dr Jamal Zehalka. One in five of the Israeli population is an Arab. Their towns receive 50% less funding then Jewish ones and cabinet minister, Avigdor Lieberman, has called...

DAM, "Born Here", Hebrew/Arabic with English subtitles
Palestinian rap group DAM (Da Arab MC's, or "blood" in Arabic and Hebrew) created this music video about the life of Palestinians in Israel. They're from Lod, a town between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, so they're Palestinians with Israeli citizenship (often called "Israeli Arabs"). They usually rap in Arabic, but they made a Hebrew version of this song with a music video to get their message out to the majority of Israelis who don't speak Arabic.
You find out more about them at http://www.dampalestine.com/main.html .
I've always wanted a subtitled version, so I broke down and adapted the lyrics from their website, to create this. I think this is one of the most powerful rap songs out there.
See http://moomtastic.com/born-here.html to see my extended comments on the video and its chorus.

"There's no greater threat to Israel or to the peace and stability of the region than Iran," he told the American Israel Public Affairs Council (AIPAC). "The danger from Iran is grave and real and my goal will be to eliminate this threat," he said, adding loudly to add emphasis that he would "everything" to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. "The Iranian regime supports violent extremes. And challenges across the region. It pursues a nuclear capability that could spark a dangerous arms race," he told AIPAC's annual meeting in Washington. Calling for "aggressive, principled diplomacy" to tackle the...
