Israel Matters was among the popular titles for teens and adults to dig deep in Israel's culture and history. To help students stay up-to-date with Israeli life, we have introduced the new revised edition.
With the new revised edition, you can provide students with historical context and fact-based answers to the criticisms and controversies that will help them come to debate about Israel with an appreciation for its complexity and develop the ability to advocate for a balanced view of Israel that is fair to the Jewish state.
In this new edition, current information fleshes out the latest events of the region and places them in context of the historical issues at play, including:
- The Arab Spring and its effects on the Israeli-Egyptian relationship
- Hama's rocket attacks, and the Israeli military response of "Protective Edge"
- The kidnapping and murder of the three Israeli teenagers
- The peace process, including the work done by President Barack Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry
The book also includes a newly updated timeline that highlights the most crucial events in the history of Israel starting with Biblical times up until the present day.
Israel Matters Revised Edition is available now and can be ordered online here.
