Synopsis by Elizabeth Smith

Israel's relationships with other countries continue to affect many citizens around the world of both Jewish and non-Jewish heritage. This film traces the steps Israel took to gain separate, recognized statehood in 1948, and reviews its ongoing conflicts with Arab countries. It also covers Israel's involvement in the Gulf War, how its people were affected by Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin's assassination, some of Israel's most recent peace treaties, and the major historical events that have impacted the Jewish people since biblical days.
