The Arab–Israeli conflict is approximately one full century of political tensions, opening hostilities though out the Middle East. This war helped the beginning the Zionist movement and created the modern State of Israel. It established territory pertaining to the Palestinians, and Muslims, Christians.
The conflict, which started as a political conflict over territorial ambitions following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, has shifted over the years from the large scale Arab-Israeli conflict to a more regional Israeli-Palestinian conflict, though the Arab World and Israel generally remain at odds with each other over territory. Present day issue must be approached with a recognition that neither the Arab-Israel dispute in general nor the Israel-Palestinian conflict in particular is based on or driven forward by primordial antagonisms and that it has in fact been less than a century since Jews and Arabs began to view each other as enemies.
