Returning Without Questions
Returning Without Questions They came a little closer to me one odd evening, I recall. Despite its simplicity, the relationship had an odd depth. There was a kind of connection between them that spoke before words, the language of their eyes—even when they were silent in front of each other, they understood each other.

Just How Effective Were Rhodesian Guerrillas?
Rhodesia, a country that is now divided into Zimbabwe and Zambia, with many people today only knowing of its existence as a result of Leonardo DiCaprio's cutthroat character in the 2006 film, Blood Diamond. One thing that you aren't able to learn from the movie, is the 15 year long civil war that tore apart the country's Southern region (present day Zimbabwe.) The Rhodesian Bush War was the result of a multitude of complex political factors, most notably the majority white government declaring independence from Britain without any kind of consent from the crown in 1965, as the South of Rhodesia was a self-governing colony since 1923.

History of Israel and Palestine
Land, identity, and sovereignty are at the heart of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, which continues to this day in the historically Palestinian region. Its origins trace back to the late 19th century with the rise of Zionism and Arab nationalism during the decline of the Ottoman Empire. ikipedia The British mandate in the early 20th century and rising tensions Following World War I, the British took control of Palestine under the Mandate system. The 1917 Balfour Declaration expressed British support for a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine, leading to increased Jewish immigration. This influx heightened tensions with the Arab population, who opposed the growing Zionist movement and feared displacement. Wikipedia 1947–1949: UN Partition Plan and the First Arab–Israeli War In 1947, the United Nations proposed partitioning Palestine into separate Jewish and Arab states. Jewish leaders accepted the plan, but Arab leaders rejected it. Upon Israel's declaration of independence in 1948, neighboring Arab states invaded, resulting in the first Arab–Israeli war. By the war's end in 1949, Israel controlled a significant portion of the territory, while Jordan and Egypt occupied the West Bank and Gaza Strip, respectively. The Nakba, or "catastrophe," refers to the displacement of approximately 750,000 Palestinians during this time. Reuters
