Argument 1:

The conflict of Northern Ireland dates back to the 1960s. The written passage offers facts about the conflict. It is not very opinionated and hence, not very argumentative. However, the image attached clearly shows a harmless civilian being brutally manhandled by the police so that does build a perspective in the viewers head. There has been no mention of any resolution for the conflict.

Argument 2:

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is quite old and still ongoing as the passage mentions. The argument here is weak as mostly the factual details are presented by the author and neither is the conflict resolution discussed. However, it does mention and show destruction and harm inflicted upon civilians so indirectly it shows the side against war rather than support for either countries.

Argument 3:

The images and passages highlight the structural violence and protests. The war is on territory and division amongst the ethnicities and religions of both groups. But it is evident that on Palestinian side, civiliansare suffering and fighting against the Israeli army. The argument is strong over here however, the weakness is that no effective solution has been suggested for this issue (Bar-Siman-Tov, 1994).

Argument 4:

This is a strong argument as it clearly indicates the side of conflict to support. The destruction and countless deaths caused by the military against the minorities asking for rights. It offers facts and figures to support as well. Most importantly, it also mentions the peace efforts that took place to solve the conflict and how war ceased by 1995 (Statzmiller, 2002).

Argument 5:

The passage and image show two different aspects of the same argument. This makes the argument stronger as both show violence or the miserable state of one group. It also hints how UN hasn’t been as successful in bringing peace as it should be (Athanasopoulou, 2009). While the Bosnian war ceased, the psychological damage and poor treatment in refugee camps still exist.
