SACRAMENTO, Calif The Israel and Palestine conflict is complex. It s rooted in national, political, territorial, cultural and religious factors. Israelis and Palestinians both want the same thing: land. One side has a state, the other one does not,” said Dr. Serpil Atamaz, professor in the Department of History and Director of the Middle East and Islamic Studies Program at California State University, Sacramento. “It s not just about land, but it s about having the right to self-determination. This is not a conflict between Jews and Muslims or Jews or Arabs. It doesn t go back to the biblical times or the Old Testament at all. This is relatively a modern conflict.”
