Isreal Aprtheid and Israel research Queastion

I think that the author IS credible for the article because he spent four years as a newspaper deputy editor. He also spent 25 years in the as a writer of political editorials for the newspaper and he lived in the west banks which is where I think they have the Palestinians trapped by the Giant wall (I do not know its name but its a giant wall that traps people inside and is like 20 ft tall). So basically he is journalists that writes what is happening in Israel. I used this article-http://www.haaretz.com/misc/writers/gideon-levy-1.402

Research Question- Is there an economic difference between the Jews and Palestinians in Israel?

Terms-
Israel econom* difference Jews and Palestinians
Israel difference in economic average pay of Jews and Palestinians

I used econom* because the * sign finishes the word so econom* can be economics, economy, or economic, etc.


Website-
http://knowledgetoday.wharton.upenn.edu/2011/11/the-growing-income-gap-between-israel-and-its-closest-neighbor/



This website quotes that "Although Israel suffers from “huge problems of income distribution,” even the minimum wage in Israel is about two and a half to three times as high as the average wage in the West Bank. The average construction worker in Israel, for example, makes more money than even a skilled high-tech worker in the West Bank or Gaza."


Website-
http://www.ifamericansknew.org/stats/econ.html

This websites quotes that "The Israeli unemployment rate is 5.6%, while the Palestinian unemployment rate in the West Bank is 23.5% and 40% in Gaza." which means that the Jews have more economic rights that the Palestinians.

Social Media Sites

I do not think that Facebook should be blocked because a person should be free and have the right to go on the internet and do what they want. I think that Facebook should be blocked at school but it would be nice for it to be unblocked because we have the right to go on it, but it should be blocked so that people will focus on school. Facebook is powerful because people can go on it to organize secret meetings and post stuff what they think, which could influence other peoples ideas.

"Free Press" Relating to social change and opression

China believes that the news media like New York Times is kind of like a way to start a social movements and that the social media is kind of in a little bit influences what you say and talk about with other people. Since The social media influences what you say, social changes can happen. I think that our country "Free Press" is partially controlled by the government. I think the government controlles what goes on television and the newspapers.

Technology for oppression and change

Technology can be used for oppression because if the government puts of cameras everywhere and track your cellphones like they did in china, then nobody could get their word out because the government will track it. And if people cant get their word out, then no movement will happen and nothing will change. Technology can also be used to change something by people creating groups on Facebook like they did in the middle east. Also people can use technology to communicate with other people. And once people communicate with each other, change will happen.

Social Event compassioante

I am compassionate the event about not hurting animals and making them fight for fun. It is wrong and extremely bad because the animals get hurt and sometimes even die. How could people have fun watching animals die. I want to stop animal cruelty. ITS BAD.

Song about social rights

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yv59SiF333s

I chose this song because this song is about the government taking away our guns and i think that it is wrong for people to take away our rights. This right is a big right to america because it was in the constitution, but the government is once again trying to be all mighty and powerful and take away our rights or restricting our rights.

Pictures Of Bombers (expert)-
http://whowhatwhy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/fbi_hijackers.jpg

The FBI made this photo of the hijackers. This was posted 72 hours after the attack. This was produced to show the people who bombed the towers and what flights they were on. This was intended for the U.S. to show who did it. This is surprising because they actually figured the hijackers and what planes they were on. If people saw this they could have hatred over Al Qaeda. I can use this in my project to show the people how much actual terrorists there were and what flights they were on

The path of the planes on 911(expert) http://news.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/spl/hi/guides/456900/456983/img/1156933615.gif

This was created by bbc news. I think this was in the UK  This was shown with the article to tell how many people died/injured, how many terrorists, and to show the flight paths of the airplanes and what airplanes hit what. This image is cool because it shows all the flights and shows where they went. When people see this they could be amazed because there were allot of planes bombing the U.S. I can use this in my project to show where the planes went. 


Where the terrorist sat on flight 11 (expert)

http://911research.wtc7.net/planes/evidence/docs/Flight11.png

This picture was created by a site called 911 research.  I think this was made in the U.S. This picture was posted to show the people where the hijackers sat on 911, which was close to each other and not spread out. I'm showing flight 11 because flight 11 hit the north tower. This image is a good image because it shows where the hijackers sat. When the people see this they could be surprised by how close they were sitting next to each other  I can use this in my project to show the audience where the sat (which was close to each other).

Where the terrorist sat on flight 175 (expert)

http://911research.wtc7.net/planes/evidence/docs/Flight175.png

This picture was also created by a site called 911 research.  I think this was made in the U.S. This picture was posted to show where the hijackers sat on flight 175, which was the flight that hit the south tower. This image was to show people that again the terrorist were close together in the front and not the back. This is a good image because it shows where the hijackers sat.  When people see this they could be like, Wow I never knew they sat this close to each other. I can use this in my project to show where the hijackers sat.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ys41jnL2Elk

This video was posted to you tube by a username of 911veritas. This was posted to you tube from the U.S. This was posted to show the reaction of people and to show the explosion of the north tower being hit by flight 11. This is a good video because it shows people doing their normal thing then all of a sudden a plane hits the WTC and people start freaking out.  When people see this, they could be like HOLY CRAP, it must be sad for those people in the buildings. I can use this in video to show the peoples reactions and the explosion.

- Look on why they picked the twin towers

This websites helps us learn on why they picked the WTC (expert)

This information website was posted about 911 by the government. This was posted in the U.S. This was posted to the internet to answer some of the questions people had about 911. This is biased for us being right and the terrorist being wrong. This is good because it has allot of information about 911 and what was the importance of the WTC. When people see this they could feel like they know more knowledge of what happened on 911. I could this to help people under stand on how important the WTC was and who was Al Qaeda.

What is the World trade center and why is its significance?

What is the world trade center and why is it significant?:

The world trade center was the 2 twin towers that were 110 stories tall and that were taller than any other buildings at the time. The north tower was 1,710 feet high and the south tower was 1,350 feet high.  The towers took 7 years to build at a cost of $750 million. The towers were so huge that each floor was the size of a football field!!!

The buildings were built to show the world that the U.S. is an important international trader. When the world trade center opened 50,000 people worked in the building such as bond trades U.S treasury sales and all other thing trading. Its basicly the trade capital of the U.S. The world trade center wasn't all business, it had apartments, restaurants and places where you can go to view the city of Manhattan. There were around 26,00 visitors a day that went to the towers. The Americans viewed the twin towers as a symbol of the openness American society. The terrorist saw the symbols of things they hated about America.

-What happened on 911

Interview Video

Questions

1. What did the people of New York do after 911?

2.  What did the U.S do to their airport security?

3. How long did it take for the terrorist to plan the attack?


I could find information on this topic by going to certain websites, reading articles, watching videos, and looking at pictures. I can use these sources because they are easy to find. To bring personal narratives in my research I could inter view my family.

Muslim

1. Middle East
Dark colored skin
Black garments over Woman
Prayer
Koran

2. The world thought that the Muslim's were terrorist and killing people for their religion.

3.After 911, we thought that all Muslims were terrorist because it was Muslims who blew up the twin towers.

4. My perception on Muslim's is that they are strict about their religion. The woman have to were alot of clothing. And they follow the Koran.

Terrorist

1. When I hear the word terrorist, I think of people who are killing people to cause fear and terror in people's lives. For example, Someone who blows a car up and kills people.

2. Terrorism is where somebody cause fear in people's lives by doing something to kill people. Al Qaeda are terrorists.

3. I got my knowledge about terrorism from books, pictures, movies, and from teachers.

4.Why do terrorist kill themselves to kill other people?

Cover it up.

The dress code is all right at out school. I don't like being told what to wear but at least it is not like some suit you have to wear all day but its fine. High school students should wear what they want but it has to be appropriate. For example, no swearing, no racism, no discrimination etc.


The Muslim woman have a strict dress code. They have to wear black and cannot show any part of their body INCLUDING THEIR FACES!!!. I think that the woman should cover up, but not as severe as they are doing right now. The woman have dress code just like us because they don't want anything showing. It is different because it is part of the Muslim culture and for school we have to wear it so we don't get in trouble. A person's belief's and culture is more important than just a regular thing like school dress code.

Picture This...

When i was reading the article, I was picturing all the scenarios in my mind. After the scenarios there is a description of of people thought in their mind and what they would do. The description was what I pictured in my mind. It was like my mind was blowing up because that was how cool it is that people did the same thing i did in the situation. When it came to the ax scenario, I was kind of disturbed because i pictured the the description (blood, screams, death.).

Blood Thirsty

When i was reading the 8 page article, I found my self after about reading 3 or 4 pages that my mind was zoning of so I had to read the page again. Also I went on Facebook at around reading the 5th page and looking away from the screen at the wall or out of the window. 

I learned a couple of things. One thing I learned was that I did not know that the Spanish conquistadors had killed 80,400 people. Also I learned that the Aztecs sacrificed their people allot.

1.Why did the Aztecs believe in Gods and sacrificing people?

2.Why was the sun god important to the Aztecs?

3. Why was Ahuitzotl the most feared Aztecan ruler?
