Michele (USA: CA) (2023/11/22): Description: When you hear about Israel in the news, chances are you have heard about war and terrorism in Israel and little else. — There is much more to the Holy Land than the limited snap-shots you see on the evening news. People marry, babies are born, children go to school, teens listen to rock music and are crazy about their soccer or basketball teams and complain about too much homework, film stars make movies, doctors perform miracles, farmers make crops grow where there used to be desert, archaeologists discover new secrets from the past, people climb mountains or hang out at the beach or the disco, people on the run grab a falafel or pizza or schwarma, politicians argue.This unit includes five short lessons about the modern State of Israel. We hope you will learn a little about Israel's people, geography, democracy, history, teen-age culture, and food. We hope this experience will help you understand things just a little better, or at least help you ask better questions. We hope you will come visit some day and see for yourself!
