Israel as you know is the heart of God's people, and in the latter days, 
well for all time really, is the focus spot of the world. There are some 
shows that offer news and events there which is interesting. Go to:

And click on listen now.  There is one guy who I don't recall his name who 
is on at night our time, early morning their time,  you'll know it is him 
because he sounds like he's talking with a mouth half full of water 
schlopping about :), but I really like his program. Although he is Jewish 
and not Christian, Biblical prophecy is sometimes the topic as well as 
editorial or opinion but it is very interesting. They got a couple young 
folks with a bunch of immature dribble right now but listening you get a 
clear understanding that  they are not folks that are of Jewish 
persuasion, but they are Jewish in belief. that is to say their religion 
and belief is who they are. We here in this country and other places tend 
to think we are American first and Christian second, Jews feel they are 
Jew first and foremost and that is it. They are their belief. We could 
learn from that identity.
