Jews and Muslims Corey Sodergren is really cool and Menalie did part of this project I guess

Root of the Conflict More political nationalistic than religious In the 7 th century Islam spread and Jews became subject to Muslim rulers The Quran denotes Jews

Form of Conflict War Massacres of Jews in the 20 th century Muslims attacked synagogues because Jews damaged their Muslim brethren in Palestinian territories : Gaza war, tensions increased Shootings

Spatial Extent of Conflict France/Europe Palestinian territories Egypt Occasionally US

A History of Conflict The religious texts of Qur'an and the Torah contradict each other in certain stories The Qur’an at one point says to accept Jews but then also says to kill them if the don’t convert to Islam. They lived in relative peace and indifference toward one another until after World War 2 when the Jews were given Israel and the Palestinians were displaced off their land and their holy land.

Countless Losses Thousands of Palestinians have been moved from their homes or separated from their farms because of the Jews placing their boundaries through property lines. Israel is very dominant and tends to look like the bad guy Bulldozing houses and stuff

Regional Conflict This is a regional conflict due to the fact that the only people actually affected are those who live and fight over the land on the Gaza Strip. Prejudices DO exist globally between the two however. Not all Jews hate Muslims and vice versa.
