Recommended: Israel palestine conflict international relations

Ever since the dawn of humanity, groups of people have gone to war with each other over a countless number of reasons. Some of these reasons are political, some are religious, and some are just for profit. It is unfortunate that in this day and age war still exists. One of the most provocative and longest lasting conflicts going on today is the conflict between the nation of Israel and the Palestinians. Even the duration of this conflict is controversial, with some saying it started 70 years ago and others saying it goes back 2,000 years.

The Israelis and Palestinians should live together in peace because other nations are multicultural and at peace, war is a burden no people should have to endure, the conflict unintentionally affects the international community, and both Israelis and Palestinians are entitled to the land they both call home.

    Ralph's position on the scale of maturation. It guides the destination of the novel and how much Ralph needs to grow to attain complete maturity. Ralph's innocence is further implied when he says his daddy is "a commander in the Navy" and that "when he gets leave, he'll come rescue us."
