Description
Description
The story of Israel begins with Zionist immigrants from Russia at the end of the 19th century and their dream to create a Jewish homeland. By World War II, Jews are already a sizable minority in British-controlled Palestine, and relations with the local Arab population are tense. Jewish refugees from Europe struggle to enter Palestine, and the United Nations calls for two states: one Arab and one Jewish. Israel is founded on May 14, 1948, and Arab countries vow its destruction. Warfare and terrorism continue for almost two decades until Israel wins a decisive victory in 1967. But Israeli military control of a large Arab population brings bitter divisions in Israeli society. In America, the Jewish community struggles with a different set of problems - intermarriage and indifference - and tries to formulate guiding principles for the coming decades.
