The new State of Israel is just five days old, and the entrenched Muslim and Jewish forces fight furiously over a holy land they are willing to die for. At this moment, after months of struggle, the siege of Jerusalem's Old City is lifted as patriot soldiers break through the Zion Gate. But the celebration cannot last long, for this is only the beginning of a long battle, ancient in its roots, and as harrowing as it is glorious.NOTES: Purchased online from CBD.
