This small yet impactful country is a mosaic of ancient biblical history and dynamic modern culture. Its story begins over three millennia ago, evolving through periods of Hebrew kings, Roman rule, Ottoman influence, and ultimately, the establishment of a modern state in 1948, nestled on the eastern shores of the Mediterranean Sea.

<p>From Nazareth to the Sea of Galilee<br />
<br />
The Sea of Galilee is a freshwater lake in Israel. It is the lowest freshwater lake on Earth and the second-lowest lake in the world (after the Dead Sea, a salt lake), with its elevation fluctuating between 215 and 209 metres below sea level.</p>

<p>With their unprovoked war against the Islamic Republic of Iran, the US and Israel have crossed every legal, moral and humanitarian line. The US had previously justified its wars and regime-change operations on the grounds of ‘promoting democracy and human rights’. These platitudes have lost much of their impact due to the heavy bombing of Iran’s civilian infrastructure and thanks to Donald Trump’s loose tongue. The US President has publicly stated that the US is supplying the Iranian opposition with weapons, that the war is solely about oil, and that he is prepared to completely destroy Iranian civilisation. Western politicians, such as the German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, have completely discredited themselves with their policy of subservience towards the US and Israel and their double standards.<br />
