Israeli/Palestinian Conflict Seminar

Today on MBI they went to Givat Haviva - a seminar center that focuses of providing education surrounding the Palestinian/Israeli conflict.
There they discussed the history in terms of the conflict and learned about specifically the 1967 war and borders and what the 'Green Line' is and symbolizes.

They then had a guest speaker Muhamad- who is an Arab Israeli. He talked about the relationship between Jewish and Arab Israelis.
Later the MBIers went to a unique village that sits exactly on the Green Line. They talked about the complexities of this.

In the evening the MBIers did a bonding activity with their kvutsah and had time to start designing their shwag! They also ate famous hummus for dinner!
