The six lectures in this course provide a thorough understanding of the story of Israel's founding, beginning with WWI and the British Mandate, as well as the legal foundation of every country in the Middle East, including Israel. In addition, you'll gain critical insight into the ongoing Jihadist opposition to the Jewish State, the Arab-Israeli conflict, and hope for a more peaceful Middle East offered through the recent Abraham Accords. The "History of Israel" course will help anyone longing for a deeper understanding of the significance of the rebirth of modern Israel and the intensity of the opposition to the existence of the Jewish State.
