		<text><![CDATA[I traveled almost the entire country from around Be'er Sheva and the Negev to the Galilee and the lower Golan Heights. I was in Jerusalem frequently and Tel-Aviv a little. I was in Haifa and Eilat. I hiked in areas all over the country. I visited large cities, small cities, moshavim, kibbutzim, student communities, and immigrant communities. I met and spoke with Israelis on from every political background, Christians, Druze, Palestinians, Israeli Arabs, and Bedouin.]]></text>
