TERRORISM
Terrorism is when people do acts of teer for no
real reason.
 Both sides have terrorists Israelis don’t have
very many big groups but the Palestinians have
big parties the hammas is a big one
 There are a lot more terrorism groups on the
Palestinian side.

ATTEMPTS AT PEACE
A wall was put up to separate the different
religions so this would not happen but it turned
out that most of the people were more effected
with it than with out to it would block school
ways work ways and separate families.
 Goals are to erase the other religion doing what
ever they needed to.
 Objects that stand it the way are ignorance and
the hate on the other group.

and other aid. Israel is dependent in U.S. government and
military strength. the Palestine's especially don't like that the
U.S is helping Israel and not them, but the U.S. is helping Israel
because they are considered a country and Palestine isn't.

SOLUTION FOR PEACE
We would cut the country in half with Jerusalem
as the boundary
 The boundary isn’t straight, it’s adaptive
according to people’s land so they’re not cut in
half
 Jerusalem is a neutral city

SOLUTION FOR PEACE
Have people move to live with their family.
 The government has to subsidize the price of
their land, and houses.
