Reflection on Dj:
==The video was about the irael people and Palestine. And how they wanted to take over there land and kick them out of the place. Also jews controlled resources and 75% of the land they kicked all of the palestinian people out of there homes and everything. Also during that time america provided israel with money for there army.==

=VS= -Why did you Attack us?- Because we felt like it!!! What are you going to do about it??

= = =**The meaning of the cartoon is to show how Egypt affected Israel in a bad way. Egypt attacked the Israel's on Yum Kipper which is there most important holiday. And the Israels wanted to attack Egypt on there most important holiday which is Ramadan. They wanted to show the Egypt how it felt when someone attacks the on there holiday. So it shows how important the day was to Israel when Egypt attacked them.**=
