Do the ethnic and religious groups of Israel live peacefully?
Within Israel's borders, yes. In the Occupied Territories, no. This does not mean that within Israel all of the groups live harmoniously. There are definitely big questions and issues that Israel's minority communities face, but they address those problems with rallies, unique political parties, and other peaceful mechanisms to hopefully change their situation. In the Occupied Territories, there is a distinction between Israeli Jews, who are subject to Israeli civil law and Palestinian Arabs who are subject to Israeli martial law. These two groups do not live peacefully together.

What is Bethlehem like now?
Bethlehem is in the West Bank section of the Israeli Occupied Territorial Area (IOTA), generally known as the "Occupied Territories". As Israel has never formally annexed the territories it is not actually in Israel, and people born there do not have Israeli citizenship. Day to day administration is in the hands of the Palestinian Authority, but the town is occupied by Israeli military forces. Jordan (to which Bethlehem belonged until the 1967 Israeli invasion) has relinquished its own claim to the area, preferring that it should become part of an autonomous Palestinian state. So as at the end of 2008 Bethlehem isn't in a country at all, but is controlled by Israel.

What do Israelis believe the sources of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict to be?
Not every Israeli thinks the same way and you can find a wide variety of opinions across the Israeli political and social spectrum. Some Israelis think that the Palestinians are to blame and that the Palestinians as a group and Arabs as a whole cannot imagine the possibility that someone other than them has a right to govern any area in the Southern Levant. There are other Israelis who think that the entire conflict would end if Israel would only retreat from the Occupied Territories in the West Bank and withdraw all of the settlements. Most Israeli opinion, though, is somewhere in the middle, faulting both Palestinian Militants and Israeli Government Intransigence.
