Israeli–Palestinian conflict I 'm going to talk about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, when I talk about this conflict I'm very worried because innocent people are dying.  This conflict is happening for a politican reason. Palestinian p eople are suffering a lot,  because of this reason Palestine which is a very beautiful country is in chaos. I think that if all the countries speak and try to convince Israel to stop the war, they would stop it.

It's a shame because Israel and Palestine could be two very nice and friendly countries! As I said before, I am very concerned about this conflict, but I feel that people do not talk a lot about it.

Frankenstein: graveyards, scientific experiments and bodysnatchers Frankenstein  is one of the most unusual and important novels of the 19th century, as well as one of the most famous. Written in the form of letters, the story is told from several different points of view, which means that the reader learns to see events in complex ways, not always from the same angle as the narrator. It is probably the first ever science fiction novel, too.
