Looks at Jews' involvement in the military and their attitudes toward war from the 1600s until the creation of the state of Israel in 1948. This title demonstrates that Israel's military ethos did not emerge from a vacuum and that long before the state's establishment, Jews had a vested interest in military affairs.
