News Story
Pierre Tristam at About.com Guide
It connects to what we are studying in class because we just finished reviewing Israel becoming a recognize country. And how the Arabs were very upset by this and refused to acknowledge Israel as existing.
It enhances what we've learned because we've seen the before but not the after and this takes place in 1981 were the Saudi Arabians' are trying to bargain with the Israelis for them to relinquish the land they occupied after being attacked by the surrounding Arab nations. If the Israelis do give the land they occupy back then the Saudi Arabians will recognize Israels right to exist which is a first in Saudi Arabian history.
Limitations I saw in this new story is it does a good job describing and telling what the Saudi Arabians wanted and what they were willing to give up but I did not see in it anything about "why" the Israeli's were even occupying parts of the middle east in the first place.
