Israel and Palestine

[Keith Chester]

I am asking for facts that you can back up on this conflict. If it is from a popular news source (ie: MSNBC) I will not heed any attention to it, as it is biased and censored to a point. Try to get as unbiased information as possible. I am not asking for opinions. If you want to state your opinion, open another thread. This is facts only (less likely to start an argument that way on a very volatile subject).
Thanks to all the posters. I'm trying to educate myself on this topic and needed help. Great forums here that I'm able to make the request. I truly think you guys will come through too.

The West Bank was captured during the Six Days War in 1967.

Reading on the Yom Kippur War in 1973 can be found here:

Very basic backdrop to current fighting. I think that is all the wars...correct me if I am wrong.
