More On The Middle East

Here are a few more additions to The “Best” Resources For Learning About The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict:

Why Israel Attacked Gaza is an article from TIME magazine that is accessible to high Intermediate ELL’s.

Arte TV has two video portraits — one of a Palestinian living in Gaza and the other of an Israeli living in a town in danger of rocket attacks. It’s all subtitled in English, and it puts a human portrait on what their lives are like. It was made ten days before the truce’s end this week.

MSNBC has what appears to me to be an excellent Q & A: The History Behind Israel’s Gaza Strikes.

The Thomson Reuters Foundation
gives a good overview of the conflict, including useful comparative data.
