Lorem Ipsum Dolor Spring 2016
By Marian Fernandez | November 25, 2014
Many centuries ago, Jews were forcedly moved
from our land, the Land of Israel. Our history,
culture and land were taken from our hands
and many of us have been fighting for it since
the 19th Century, when Zionism was created.
The lands that once belong to us are Land of
Canaan, the Holy Land and Palestine. As it is
well known, since 2006, a very strong post-
Zionist Israeli organization was created, the Im
Tirtzu. The main objective of the Im Tirtzu is
strengthening and promoting the Zionist values
in Israel. Plus, as many of us now, the Im
Tirtzu is an extra-parliamentary group.
For the last three years, the Israeli High Court
of Justice has been deciding whether or not to
consider and decide if the Im Tirtzu should be
taken as a fascist organization. The Im Tirtzu
has a very old Jewish vision of Israel. They see
Israel as an organic nation. Im Tirtzu sees
the individuals as inseparable parts of a whole
(Sadan, 1). While the government, sees the
state as a partnership between individuals
(Sadan, 1).
This obviously presents a problem in oucountry and our people history, culture and life
Many of us Jews favor the post-Zioni
organizations and people, whom think that th
Zionist movement already fulfilled i
ideological goal when the State of Israel wa
created in 1948. But obviously the Im Zioni
Organization believes otherwise. This issue i
our state is delicate and involves a lot ou
religion, which is very pressure for us. What wihappen now? Should the Im Zionist need to b
eliminated? Should we continue living withou
part of our Promised Land? Or should we figh
for it like the Im Zionist? Or should we accep
and appreciate what we have, live our live
proud of who we are, of our culture and ou
history?

Lorem Ipsum Dolor Spring 2016Suggestions to this problem
According to editor Blake Alott, everything
that has to do with Zionism need to be
rejected. Everything since organizations to
suggestions in the government. An exampleof this is the Two-State Solution between
Palestine and Israel. Blake Alott states that
the Two-State Solution should be rejected
because if one of the states is Palestine, the
other is the existing, ethnocratic Jewish
state in Palestine a Zionist state with
everything that entails (Allot, 1). Zionists
from Israel want to keep all of their
Promised Land, this includes Gaza and
West Bank. Zionists from Palestine want to
take back what was stolen from them and
make West Bank and Gaza an independent
state. This is the actual Israel/Palestine
conflict and it is obvious to see the Zionism
ideology has a lot to do with it. This
obviously brings trouble between Zionist
groups, considering that both have a strong
and alike ideology but with different goals.

Israel vs. PalestineThis conflict has been going on since
around the late 19th century and the early
20th century. It started with nationalist
movements from Arab Muslims and Jews.
Since the tension within both cultures was
evident and was rising rapidly, this led into
a conflict in Levant, that is a region where
western Asia, eastern Mediterranean and
northeast Africa meet. This region has a
very big variety of cultures, religions, and
economic statuses. There is one conflict
that is considered to be very influent in this
Israel-Palestine conflict, The Six Day War of1967 where Israel took control over the
Gaza Strip and the West Bank, 2 territories
with a great amount of Arab Muslim
population.
To this day, West Bank is controlled by
Palestine authorities, but they are still part
of Israeli territory, this should be a start for
the Muslims to have arguments to make the
West Bank an independent state but the
Israeli Jews are not dumb, they establish
Jewish communities inside this territory
and give them orders to expand, which
makes it easier for the Jews to stop Muslim
revolts for independence. These
communities are protected by the Israeli
army just in case Arabs try to hurt them,
this way they kill 2 birds with one shot, they
increase Jewish population, and have one
reasonable reason to implement their army
in the conflict zone to enforce security.
The never-endingconflict
This problem became an official conflict
in 1963. Experts made an approximate
calculation with a variety of studies
and they got to the conclusion that
there have been 21,500 casualties to
the year 2013
Political cartoonThis political cartoon cant be more specific and
effective. On the left side of Israel we have anArab Muslim and on the right side we have an
Israeli Jew. Both are fighting for the conflict
zone which is all Israel. The figure of Israel has
the Jewish Star of David that is the principal
representation of the Jewish group, and it has
the Palestinian flag as well, which as established
before, are the 2 groups fighting over the
territory they wan.

Israel vs Palestine
The conflict that has been going on forcenturies and just cant reach a solution.
On the other hand, the Gaza Strip is
controlled by an Islamist fundamental party called
the Hamas, but, just like the West Bank, its territory
is part of Israel. The Hamas formed in 1987 and won
political power on Gaza in the year of 2006 by U.S.-
based elections, this made the situation much more
tense and violent. The difference of these two
Palestinian territories is that in 2005 the IsraeliArmy
pulled out by orders of the former Israeli Prime
Minister, Ariel Shanon. Since then the Israeli army is
not able to go into the Gaza Strip, and Jewish people
are not aloud to settle there either. The relationship
between Gaza and Israel is way much tense than the
one of the West Bank with Israel. There have been
some worldwide known rocket attacks from the
Gaza Strip territory that do directly to Israeli targets.
Israel has taken action into this and sometimes Gaza
is not provided with enough fuel, medicines, food
and electricity that before arriving have to go through
the government of Israel. The Israeli government
takes advantage of this situation because they know
that is the easiest way to weaken Gaza, because
without enough food, medicines, and electricity
people can get weaker.
Basically the conflict is over the land tha
belongs to Israel that Arab Muslims control. The
Arab Muslim population gave their land the name
of Palestine; over the years they basically established
the name as official to themselves and the generaworld. The issue here is that Palestinians want to get
their own state and Israelis oppose to the idea
because it implies that they loose part of their
country. There are a lot of actors involved in this big
issue. We have the previously mentioned Aram
Muslims and the Jews, but we have the UN, we have
the PLO that stands for Palestinian Liberation
Organization, which is runned by the PA, which
stands for Palestinian National Authority. There are
a whole lot in IGOs and NGOs involved in this
conflict and it does not seem that is coming to and
end, or minimum in a short term notice.
This conflict has consequences in the marke
of that zone because its very difficult to be certain
that there is not going to be an attack, bombing or
something, that does not help Israel nor the other
country that stops making business with them.
This is the visua
representation and
localization of where theissue is taking place
On the left we have the Paestinian Loss of
Land from 1947 to these day. The green
part is Palestinan land and the white part
is Israeli land.

Lorem Ipsum Dolor Spring 2016
Suggestions made by editors
Editors say that do to the fact that the situation
is very tense, there are just 2 options, a two state
solution that means that Palestine becomes anindependent state, or a one-state solution that
means that either of the sides gets full control of the
territory. But both of them have a lot of negative
consequences and non of the sides are willing to agree
to loose something.
The two-state solution is what the Palestine
territories, West Bank and Gaza, want, that is what
they been fighting for for so many years, but Israel is
going to do everything in their power not to let that
happen. They have been investing in this cause for alot of time and since they already started I doubt that
they are going to stop and let the Palestine community
get what they want. In fact, there were some peace
negotiations going on and everything was going
excellent, actually like never before, but they fell
apart in July and August of this year. This made the
conflict escalate to total war between Israel and
Hamas. This is a realist approach because is what
experts think is going to happen.
On the other side, the one-state solution is
what Israel is fighting for, but in my humble opinion if
this happens, it will be a matter of time before a
revolution takes place because if Israel wins the
Palestinian community is not going to accept the
defeat. A few years ago, the Gaza Strip and the West
Bank were fighting each one by their side for the same
objective, recently they decided to join forces to get to
the same objective, but since the only thing between
them is nothing more and nothing less than Israel,
their enemy. This makes things way more complicatedfor everyone. There is a theory that says that when
the West bank merges, the Israeli government will
make the Palestinian leave the country or remove
their right to vote, but this would imply violating
human rights and it would become into a conflict
where the UN will be forced to interfere and the
conflict will get 10 times bigger. This is an idealist
approach on the Israeli side, because is what they
want but it seems difficult for this to happen.
