II.
This article is about how the Hamas believe that the Jews were the cause of the Holocaust. They planned it just for world sympathy. As seen on Palestinian televisions now on YouTube, the Nazi's had nothing to do with the Holocaust, in fact the Jews blamed it on them. The reason why "the Jews" had done the Holocaust, was they wanted to get rid of all the handicap, disabled and people with special needs. In order to do that, they had the Holocaust.

III.
a) This article relates to the AP World History Theme of Impact of interaction among and within major societies. This is because the Israeli's and Palestinians are in a war over, basically, land so they aired this on news to get people thinking and on their side.
b) For years now, Israel and Palestinian have been fighting they each want to win. But, the Holocaust was a genocide that happened only a few decades ago that involved Nazi's killing thousands of Jews by concentration camps, gas chambers and more.
c) The point of view of this article is a Israeli citizen that his ancestors may have been in the Holocaust and now is second guessing because of this new "fact".
d) It may be hard to fully analyze this situation due to the fact that it was written by a Jewish citizen. This is because, as stated before he might have someone to do with the Holocaust (a death or survival) so either way he will be on the Jewish side and how the Nazi's were evil and how the Palestinians are wrong about their statement.
e) It would be helpful if this article was written by a Palestinian. This is because we would get information of how the Palestinians came up with this idea of the Nazi's not even to blame the the Jews themselves and why decades later. With all these questions answered it would be a lot easier to understand.
f) I think this is a horrible thing the Palestinians did because years later, they come up with a new idea of what "really" happened at the holocaust. This puts a major twist onto things and really gets you thinking. I believe that the Palestinians are wrong and the Nazi's are the ones to blame and the Jew were not just looking for attention.
