Does religion play a part in the conflict?
Religion pays an important role in the conflict. Many Israelis take into account religious writings promising them this land and call it "the promised land" or "greater Israel." These are all religious factors that influence their management of political issues and their view of the conflict. On the other hand, there are Palestinians who consider Palestine a holy land and Jerusalem a sacred place. All these factors are important parts of the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians.
