Questions Notes: 10.10 The Modern World
1. The Arab-Israeli Conflict
According to Judaic scripture, God gave Moses the laws while the Hebrews
were on the Exodus from Egypt.
About 2,000 years ago the Roman Empire grew around the Mediterranean Sea.
The Jews revolted against Roman rule.
The rebellion was crushed and the Jews forced to leave Israel.

The Ottoman Empire in 1914
The Ottoman Turks controlled Palestine.
The British sent T E Lawrence to encourage Arabs (including the Palestinians) to revolt against the Turks. In return the British insinuated that they would support Arab independence after World War I.
Lawrence was successful in getting the Arabs to rise up against the Ottomans.General Allenby victoriously entering Jerusalem.

135 iii. by 1914, Ottoman Empire controls
Palestine, Lawrence of Arabia promises Palestinians freedom if they fight the Ottomans
Israel ceased to exist in 70 AD, and the Jews spread out around the
world.
Jewish populations lived throughout the world.
Throughout history, the Jewish people lived in other people’s
countries, and periodically they were discriminated against.
In the late 1800s, a Hungarian Jew named Theodore Herzl came up with an
idea that would protect Jewish people from discrimination…
The Jews should have their own homeland…
This started the Zionist movement.
During the War, the British Foreign Minister, Lord Balfour, issued the Balfour Declaration.
The British government promised to support the Zionist cause of creating a homeland for Jews in Palestine.

Declaration and promises the Jews a state in Palestine
After World War I, the League of Nations gave the lands of the Ottoman Empire to the British and the French as Mandates (to look after until the people were ready for independence).
After World War I, the Zionists encouraged Jewish immigration to Palestine.
As conditions in Nazi Germany and Europe
worsened for Jews, many decided to start new lives
in Palestine.
The horrors of the Holocaust convinced many that the Jews needed a homeland.

The Palestinians left in Israel have been unhappy at their treatment…

• This is what two women told human rights workers about the maquila where they work in Tehuacan, south-east of Mexico City:
• Each shift is from 8.30 am until 8.30 pm, but if workers do not complete the number of clothes they have been told to make that day, they must work longer without any pay;
• Workers are paid between $30 and $50 per week;• Girls as young as 12 and 13 work in the factory;• When workers leave the factory (to go to lunch or to go
home) they are searched to make sure they haven't stolen anything;
• When women are hired, they are tested to see if they are pregnant. If they are pregnant, they are fired.
• If you arrive 15 minutes late, you must work for 3 days without pay.
• When maquila workers organized an independent trade union about 10 years ago, one of its leaders was assassinated.

• When NAFTA was passed through the Congress, by both Republican and Democratic lawmakers, and was signed into law by President, Bill Clinton, he stated:
“I believe that NAFTA will create 200,000 American jobs in the first two years of its effect… What does that mean? It means that there will be an even more rapid closing of the gap between our two wage rates. And as the benefits of economic growth are spread in Mexico to working people, what will happen? They'll have more disposable income to buy more American products and there will be less illegal immigration because more Mexicans will be able to support their children by staying home. This is a very important thing.”
• The “Free” and “Fair” trade agreements that our elected officials have made with foreign nation are neither “Free” nor “Fair.” America has lost 3.2 million manufacturing jobs since 2000.
