Comparison Between 'Creation And Catastrophe'

Conflict between societies and countries has always being part of our history. Most of the time the fight is who gets more or who gets the best of the resources out there. Each ethnic group strives for survival and to have what it is needed for survival. Most of the time societal groups do not see the consequences of thinking only for themselves. There is no specific ethnic group that deserves better opportunities than other or that deserves getting abruptly or by an inconcible way what was already established. In the documentary Creation and Catastrophe an insight was given to the history and roots of the problem we currently see today between Palestinians and Israelis. History helps us comprehend the way things are shaped right now.
After World War I came the Zionist movement which was a movement to relocate Jews. The Jews suffered discrimination and were prevented from participation on the government but the had support the support of the British trough the national homeland in Palestine.

If things did not go good the Haganah already had a written strategy and that strategy was to expel the Arabs, not let them return and prepare themselves for when the British army left. They organized large military operations and went on conquering Arab villages even though some of those villages had a peace agreement with the Jews.
