Publisher's Synopsis
The Israeli-Palestine conflict began in the early 20th century but in more recent times hostility has arisen between the Israeli population and its ultra-orthodox Haredim community. Their focus on religion at the expense of all else, has made most Haredim unemployable in a modern economy. The first book of its kind to discuss the conflict debated throughout the country, The War Within is an acerbic reaction to the battle between church and state currently taking place in Israel. As acclaimed journalists Yuval Elizur and Lawrence Malkin assert, the situation has reached a critical point that threatens Israel from within.
