Abstract
It’s obvious to any observer, regardless of their religious affiliation, that not all conventions within Israeli government and society are optimal. Whether or not those observers are conscious of the terms, let alone the distinctions between, melekh and malkhut, or have any familiarity or awareness of the names and titles of Israel’s ancient leaders, an equal measure of the Israeli population divides between those who grumble and fret about the state growing too religious, and those who lament that the state is not religious enough. Few, if any, hold the elusive Goldilocks view that things in the State of Israel are just right. (from Conclusion)
