Israel
The creation of Israel and the Palestinian
Territories has caused many conflicts over the last 50-plus years.
While we all have our own opinions about the situation, the reality
is, that this is a must see destination. Rarely does a relatively
small region have so much to offer-from the bustle of modern Tel
Aviv to the tranquility of the Dead Sea. This place oozes
history.
