Isreal-Arab conflict

1. Through about one century of poloitical tensions and open hostilities.
2. It starts in 1917.
May 15, 1948-Israel War on Independence.
June 5-10 1967- 6 Day War. Israel destoys the egyption airforce on the ground, conquers and occupies Saini and then conquers the west bank form jordan and golden heights form syria
Oct 6, 1973- Yom Kippur War
March 26, 1979- Peace Treaty signed between Egypt and Israel
3. Enemies of Israel are Iraq, Palestanians,Syria, Saudia.
4. Egypt, Jordan, Mauritania
5. it wants to stay a country

Reflection Post

1. I learned why America decided to storm the normandy beaches on D-Day
2. My research question was "What happened on D-Day, and how did it effect the war?"
3. The answer to my research question would be, we stormed the beaches of Normandby on D-Day this was beacuase we thought that if we won there it would be a quicker end to the war.
4. To me i think that our prodjet did answer the answer
5. By it gave a picture of how American troops came up from the water and the Germans were already stationed there and how even though there where many fatalities on both sides more on ours then theirs we still won.
6. I think what we did well was that we gave a picture of D-Day so poeple could look at it and get a general idea of what happened.
7. We could hhave improved by maybe making it bigger or had some tanks or airplanes in it.
8. Make the prodject bigger and maybe a bit more detail.
9. I think i would have changed the recomended research and websites that we had to look up.
10. I think i deserve in the 90's this is because i think we captured a good picture of D-Day and showed poeple how tragic this day was.
