Oh, where to start?  There is so much garbage flying around in the press these days, that one needs to get a grip on the essence of the battle in Israel.  These articles and websites outline why Jerusalem and Israel are of the utmost importance to Jews around the world and why Israelis are so adamant about staying there, amidst a sea of enemies.

The most important thing you can do is to learn what lies are out there.  The best resource for this is to read "Myths and Facts Online".  When you're done with that, go to other websites that aim to disseminate the truth!  After you're done with those, continue onto these other sites...
