Meet Israel...!!

One upon a time, the United States of America was "the Land of unlimited Possibilities." But no more..! Israel has replaced it..! Perhaps not as far as economic life is concerned but in many other areas. Read on and be convinced..!!
     Where is the lowest spot on the face of the earth..??  Only in Israel.
     Where is there a concentration of the places most sacred to Judaism,Christianity and Islam..?? Only in Israel.
     In Which Country has the population in creased 5-fold within a generation..? Only in Israel.
    In Which country are gathered 2 million immigrants from more than 100 countries.? Only In Israel.
Where do all the men do active reserve duty up till the age of 55 and the fellow who is not called up feels he is not a complete man ? only in Israel.
     Where do children, who have recently immigrated, teach their mothers their mother tongue.? Only in Israel.
     The list is long and all the details in it come together to from a mosaic of people, deeds, landscapes, dreams ( most of which have been realized ) and... miracles. David Ben-Gurion, the country's first prime minister, used to say that in Israel if you do not believe in miracles, you are not a realist.
     All these things and more are Israel. A tiny country which is enormous. Only 4 million inhabitants but a country which has everything - cities, villages and kibbutzim; highly cultivated areas and virgin deser; the most famous oranges in the world and evern more sophisticated technology; short winters and long summers. Israel is also the only true democracy in this part of the world. At its head stands a president, but executive authority is in the hands oth the elected governments. We call the parliament, Knesset - 1 house of 120 members.
     Israel is one of the world's youngest states - it only started in 1948. But at the same time is has existed more than 3,000 years. It is a state with an impressive past (Proof ??.. Just read the Bible), an interesting present and all its future is before it..!!
That is what we meant - Unlimited Possibilities...!!
