Arabs And Israelis


            The ideology of the Israelis is different from the Arabs in many ways. They have different views on religion, politics, and the way society should be ran in general. The Arabs and Israelis had several chances to call a truce, but Arabs turned down every chance. In 1948, the UN was going to divide Palestine into two separate states, one Arab and one Jewish, but as soon as the British left the control to them the Arabs proclaimed war against Israel. Even though Israel was proclaimed a state, Arabs refused to accept this. The Arabs believed in communism, but the Israelis chose to set up a democracy, taking ideas from the Western styles of government. Both groups proceeded to attack each other, having a constant fear of one another. .
             This difference in ideology caused some major problems in the Middle East. Israel's defeat over the Arabs caused self-doubt in many of the other Arab nations. In Egypt, it led to a revolution which over through the monarch. It also saw the rise of many independent groups that looked to the Soviet Union for help. This in turn caused the U.S.A. and Britain to withdraw financial aid for fear about Nasser's relations with the Soviet Union. All of these accusations led to the Suez Crisis. The Six-Day War soon followed, in which Israeli forces overran the Sinai Peninsula, the Golan Heights on the Syrian border, and East Jerusalem. The Israelis also ignored the decision of the UN that Jerusalem should be an international city by making it their eternal capital.
             The prospect of there being any kind of lasting peace is not real good. Every time a leader comes forth to negotiate peace, he or she is assonated. Some countries held secret peace talks. In Morocco the Egyptian president Sadat and the Israeli president Begin, surprised the world when they held a conference to negotiate a peace treaty (before they only had secret meetings). This agreement became known as the Camp David Accords.
