In the Middle East their is stalled peace talks in dealing with the Palestineans and Iraelis land. They have been trying to work things out but have failed to reach any sort of agreement. Palestine has said that they feel they are working agians Israel more than they are working with them for finding a solution. Both sides are very set in their ways as far as their goals go for finding a solution, which makes it difficult to make everyone happy. The longer they wait to come to a conclusion the more the citizens are becoming violent and unhappy. There is inconsistent information as far as what Israel and Palestinean officials are saying, but as of now there is still no solution.
Thoroughout researching this topic, there are a few situations and problems that stand out from the rest. Fisrt of all seeing the different views on the same topic is very interesting and eye opening. For example the Palestineans are displaced in the land they called home for many years, but the Israelis finally have a home after being the scapegoat for countless times in history. Another situation I learned was about the nuclear unrest and how that impacts a country. Israel is the target of many attacks in the middle east and the plan of Iran getting a nuke would be terrifying to them, which would get us involved with having to protect them. Finally it opened my eyes to seeing how involved we really are in the middle east. Israel and Egypt are our largest recipents of forigen aid and that means we all have strong ties to that area because we are large investors and we recieve many things like oil from there, which is vital to the way we run our country. Overall there is alot to be taken away from this project, yet there are still many things to be learned.
