Dylan Williamson Humanities Matt Dooley The Right of Return Should the Palestine be allowed to return?

Although Israel is now being populated by a Jewish state, Palestinians still own keys to houses that Jewish settlers now live in, and even in the Palestines own inhumane territory, the Israeli soldiers still attack. Back when World War II was reaching a climax, the Jewish cam to seek refuge from the British, who at the time where in charge of the Palestine and Israel. The two lived together, sharing the country not with acceptance of one another, but with minimal chaos controlled by the British. However, when the British took their leave, all control shattered and the Palestinians and Jewish people spread and took temporary ownership of different sections of land. The Palestine taking the West bank and the Gaza strip, each located on separate parts of the country. The Jewish took the rest of Israel, and borders were set between territories, and since the two have been in civil war. The Jewish believe that since historical references show that the land was originally theirs before the Palestine arrived on the result of war that the land is technically Jewish. The Palestinians cant turn back the clock, whats fair though is that in 1948 after the UN petition was removed, they Invade us with five Arab armies. They call on their brethren, the Palestinians to leave the land, because it will take three days to wipe out the embryonic Jewish State and then they can come back and take everything. Thats how the refugees left. We didnt loose we refused to die, but at the aftermath of the same war, the equal amount of Jewish people had to leave Israel. (The Truth about the West Bank) This means that the land was shared but really belonged to the Jewish because the Palestine left the territory and the Jewish took what was part of there land. The Palestine live in an inhumane setting, with Israeli guards attacking them, lack of the essentials, and rights not given to them. Back in 1897 a man named Theodore Herzl called for an exclusive Jewish state in Palestine, he did this by using Zionism. Zionism refers to the ideological idea of a political ort religious movement. In order to establish a Jewish state in in a country where most are not Jewish they needed to bring Jewish in from other places in the world. Simultaneously it meant the dispossession and ethnic cleansing of the Palestine. The Core Issue, (Nizar Sakhnini). This meant that the main goal of the Palestine was to cleans all Palestine and turn them into Jewish, or even to dispose of all those who where not Jewish,

forcing them to leave there homes in the Israel, and become refugees in other countries. Israel is Palestine home; and it has been for decades. An interview with The Jerusalem Post, Mr. Olmert seemed to rule out any negotiation on refugees. He would not accept notion Palestine right of return to their homes, telling the newspaper: Ill never accept a solution that is based on their return to Israel, in any number. This is unreasonable, Israel is ignoring a problem that needs to be solved, not negotiating with the Palestine will further expand the problem until there is a civil, or even world war started because of a problem that is not being solved. Even if Palestine are not permitted to return to Israel they should still be able to live a life with basic human rights, with food and water. There should also be a stop of all attacks on Palestinians unless they are provoking the Israeli. The only way the problem will be solved is if there are steps taken to solve it. Israel is Palestine home, you cant expect there to be no conflict when they are not allowed to go back to their home. There needs to be progression towards the Palestine being allowed to return home, or else at least stopping violence between Israel and Palestine. The way the Palestine is not how anyone should live. Although Israel is now being populated by a Jewish state, Palestinians still own keys to houses that Jewish settlers now live in, and even in the Palestines own inhumane territory, the Israeli soldiers still attack. This is not the way we should be solving the problem, the Israeli soldiers may be protecting Israel but they are not helping the progression of getting the Palestine a home. Even if the Palestine cant go back to Israel; they need a home, they deserve a home.
