The Arab-Israeli Wars (1956-present)

A striking contrast of Israel in 1947 versus 1949 begins this presentation, helping to set the context of the ongoing strife between the Arab and Israeli peoples throughout the 20th (and 21st) centuries. Providing a good background to the battle, the slides fall short of carrying the information through to current years - which could be an opportunity for a teacher to add his or her own modern-day slides, or for independent research on the topic.
