d. both conflicts involved peoples in colonized territories fighting for economic and religious freedoms.

Explanation:

The African independence movements aimed to end colonial rule and gain political freedom. The Arab - Israeli conflict is centered around the struggle for control of the land in the region of Israel and Palestine. Superpowers' influence was not the main motivation for African independence movements, and the Arab - Israeli conflict was not mainly inspired by other revolutions. Also, the Arab - Israeli conflict is not about people in colonized territories fighting for economic and religious freedoms as its main motivation.

Answer:

C. The African nations were fighting for political freedom from colonial forces, but Israel and Palestine have been fighting for control of the same land.
