Book to Article connection (conflict to book)

If i were to connect my book with a conflict that were going on today, I would connect it to the Arab-Israeli conflict, in particular, the Arab 1 Man, 29 Killed Massacre. The audience that is intended to read this is America. The author intended for this article to be read and to have Americans change their minds about the conflict. The author states that ONE man killed 29 people and injuring many more before being overpowered and being killed himself. His evidence is that people were warranting for the arrest of those who killed him and some praised him for his actions.

Similarly, in the book, Vahan is being taken to a death camp and they make several stops on the way. The men taking them to that place (the turkish) are laughing at the expense of the Armenians (Vahan's people). They get praised for taking the Armenians to the camp and kill them in any way possible. The Armenians in the situation do not get any compensation for being held hostage. Similarly, the Arabs did not get compensated for being shot at.
