What countries govern Israel or Palestine?

The question is clearly two separate questions:

1). What country governs Israel ?

2). What country governs Palestine ?

Answers:

1). Israel is an independent sovereign nation, declared in 1948, a member of the United

Nations, and currently recognized by all but roughly 35 of the nations of the world. The

nation is a self governed representative democracy, with a popularly elected parliament.

2). There is at present no nation known as "Palestine". The "Palestinian" people are a relatively

loose amalgam of Middle-Eastern residents who identify themselves according to a number of

different unifying criteria, including their relationship to descendents who at one time resided

on lands that are now part of Israel. The Palestinian people currently reside in Jordan, Lebanon,

Syria, and Gaza. The West Bank of the Jordan river is legally part of the Kingdom of Jordan, but

is administered by Fatah. Gaza is legally part of Egypt, but is administered by Hamas.

Why did Israel and Judah split and when?

According to the Bible, Rehoboam succeeded his father, Solomon, as king of a great united empire, but was not a good leader. He continue his father's unwise policy of swingeing taxes and then arrogantly increased them when the Israelites complained. In a very short time, the Israelites rebelled and he lost an empire, the United Monarchy of Israel. On this view, the split occurred around 921 BCE.

However, it is reported that a majority of scholars believe that there never was a United Monarchy of Israel. They say that Israel and Judah were always separate, with their own customs and even different dialects of the Hebrew language. Arguably, the biblical authors created a United Israel in order to instil national unity and national pride, in a time of great difficulty for Judah, and they needed an explanation as to why this great empire ceased to exist. Rehoboam and his lack of proper leadership were the convenient explanation.

It's not necessarily good for the US, but Israel is located in an area where there are no other democracies and is very near the oil.

Why does Israel produce a lot of innovative technologies?

Israel's strong start up cultureIsrael is a strong start up culture, with thousands of high tech companies across the country. Outside the US, it leads the world in number of companies on the NASDAQ. Technology and innovation are highly encouraged fields in Israel.

Israel is known as a global center for high tech for several reasons:

  1. Israel has a historical spirit of pioneering, which began with the kibbutzim over 100 years ago.
  2. The lack of natural resources encourages creative thinking and the development of technologies to overcome the challenges this creates.
  3. Israel is a country of immigrants. Many times, immigrants are driven to excel and do better as well as take higher risks because they have less to lose and more to prove.
  4. Israel's need for a developed defense system promotes investment in R&D in universities.

The Israeli government plays a strong role in the development of innovative technologies through the Office of the Chief Scientist which provides grants and tactical support for startup companies to conduct R&D efforts within the framework and expertise of an incubator program.

In addition to providing strong support to early stage companies, incubators also play a strong role in bringing innovative technology to the worldwide scene by supporting startups in the development of sales team and/or strategic alliances with global leaders as a mean to successfully penetrate relevant markets such as the United States or the European Union.
