The Need for Peace in the Middle East

2025 Vol. 2: Mar/Apr

The events that have taken place in Israel since "The Hamas Invasion" is but the latest chapters in the long series of wars and conflicts that have been a part of the Middle East—especially in modern times and particularly since the birth of Israel in 1948. Major wars involving Israel have occurred in 1948, 1956, 1967, and 1973, interspersed with frequent “minor” skirmishes. For a better understanding of the latest chapter, “The Hamas Invasion,” one must take a closer look at the particulars, which is the focus of this lead article.
