The Holy Land: Official Documents
& Fake News

A Little Dose Of History

by Shira Sorko-Ram

So history repeats itself. For the 50 years I have lived in Israel, every single new US president has made one of his top-priorities the goal of solving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and bringing peace to the Middle East.
