Article on Israel and Palestine

Massoud A Derhally is a Middle East reporter that writes for Aljazeera. He wrote an article named "Israel and Palestine: Shifting Paradigms."In this article he wrote about how Israel hates to be compared to the South African Apartheid System. However, he writes about all the similarities the Israeli government has with the apartheid system. Both of them had segregated roads and places. Prohibition of Marriage between Palestinians and Israelis, as well as other segregation conditions.

In this article I agree with Massoud's point of view because in Israel there is segregation even though they do not accept it. There are many resemblances between Israel's government system and the apartheid system in South Africa. How people view this conflict can vary. Most of the times,  there is only one part of the story shown. i think it is necessary to know both in order to take an accurate position towards the conflict. I agree the there is going to be a shift in this conflict and that it's end might come sooner than later, but not under the best conditions.
