Israel, officially the State of Israel ( /ˈɪzriːəl/ or /ˈɪzreɪəl/; Hebrew: מְדִינַת יִשְׂרָאֵל, Medīnat Yisrā'el, IPA: [me̞diˈnät jisʁäˈʔe̞l] ( listen); Arabic: دَوْلَة إِسْرَائِيل, Dawlat Isrāʼīl, IPA: [dawlat ʔisraːˈʔiːl]), is a parliamentary republic in the Middle East, along the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea. It borders Lebanon in the north, Syria in the northeast, Jordan and the West Bank in the east, Egypt and the Gaza Strip on the southwest, and the Gulf of Aqaba in the Red Sea to the south, and it contains geographically diverse features within its relatively small area. Israel is defined as a Jewish and Democratic State in its Basic Laws and is the world's only Jewish-majority state.
Following the adoption of a resolution by the General Assembly of the United Nations on 29 November 1947 recommending the adoption and implementation of the United Nations plan to partition Palestine, on 14 May 1948 David Ben-Gurion, the Executive Head of the World Zionist Organization and president of the Jewish Agency for Palestine, declared the establishment of a Jewish state in Eretz Israel, to be known as the State of Israel, a state independent from the British Mandate for Palestine. Neighboring Arab states invaded the next day in support of the Palestinian Arabs. Israel has since fought several wars with neighboring Arab states, in the course of which it has occupied the West Bank, Sinai Peninsula, Gaza Strip and the Golan Heights. Portions of these territories, including east Jerusalem, have been annexed by Israel, but the border with the neighboring West Bank has not yet been permanently defined.[neutrality is disputed] Israel has signed peace treaties with Egypt and Jordan, but efforts to resolve the Israeli–Palestinian conflict have so far not resulted in peace.

In television:
There we were two lonely souls
Existing from day to day
Feeling love would never
Come our way
Watching lover share their bliss
Sadly wishing only if
Believing that we had to live
Life like this
But Like a bolt of lightning
As when two stormy clouds collide
We made a joyful happening
To our lives
Now we're as happy as can be
Me loving you and you loving me
Two hearts intertwined
Which makes us one of a kind
Feeling the charge of a love evermore
Knowing that love is enough to live for
It feels so fine
Sharing love one of a kind
One of a kind now baby
Your love and mine, such ecstasy
One of kind sweet darling
The only way love is meant to be
United love so fine
Living in love one of a kind
It feels nothing but fine
Sharing our love one of kind

If we had a second chance
At living a second time
We'd change everything but our love
In our lives
'Cause like a big disaster
Lost in a never-ending night
We light a light of magic
Now we're as happy as can be
Me loving you and you loving me
Two hearts intertwined
Which makes us one of a kind
Feeling the charge of a love evermore
Knowing that love is enough to live for
It feels so fine
Sharing love one of a kind
One of a kind, now baby
Your love and mind, such ecstasy
One of a kind, sweet darling
