Briefly explain the three sources of violence in the Middle East

What will be an ideal response?


The situation at the end of World War I set the stage for developments over the next century, and it is the basis for terrorism in the traditional Middle East (defined by most Westerners as Israel, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, and the Arabian Peninsula). As events unfolded, three factors became prominent in Middle Eastern violence: (1) questions about the political control of Israel and Palestine, (2) questions of who would rule the Arab world, and (3) questions concerning relations between the two main branches of Islam—Sunnis and Shi'ites. Stated another way, these problems are the following: 1) The Palestinian question (control of Palestine)? 2) Intra-Arab rivalries and struggles? 3) The future of revolutionary Islam.
