Description
Summary:Israel is faced with many of the problems it encountered upon its creation in 1948: disputed borders, a heterogenous demography, a hostile Palestinian population largely uprooted from its ancestral home, inimical neighbours, dependence on US and European goodwill and a domestic militaristic mindset that makes the country rely primarily on force to achieve its goals.
