Reactions
A. This article relates to the AP World theme of Impact of interaction among and within major societies. The article fits this theme because the two major societies, Israel and Palestine were interacting with each other, and the impact of their interaction is war and bombing.
B. B. This article has a lot of historical background to it, these two groups have been fighting for a very long time. It started in 1967 when they were in war and Israel claimed Jerusalem its capital. The Palestinians wanted the occupied portion of the land.
C. The author of this article is an male Israelite. The author has put a lot of background information into this article so he is most likely an insider.
D. There is not much indication of the authors point of view, but since the author is Israeli and against the Palestinians he does mention all of the Palestinians flaws and little to non of the. Israelis flaws.
E. It would be helpful to have input from a Palestinian because they might have a different opinion on what happened and give information about the Israelis such as if the did anything to spark thee attack.
F. I think that the Israelis and Palestinians should split the land or come up with a solution to this problem because this conflict has been going on for way to long and there is so much unnecessary violence going on in the world and if any of it can be stopped then it should be stopped.

I agree with Christie that they should come up this some kind of plan to end the fighting. They should spilt the land or come up with some kind of peace treaty. Innocent people are being injured. They should stop thinking about there problems and think about what its doing to their countries.
