Israel Flags
The Israel flag bears a white background with two 25-centimeter blue stripes, each 15 centimeters from either edge. In between the stripes is a six-pointed star, or hexagram, formed from two interlocking equilateral triangles.
This is known as the Star of David, which initially had no religious significance but grew into a symbolism of Judaism, most especially after the Holocaust. It has been said that blue and white are colors of purity that connote the spirituality of the Jewish people.
The flag dates back to the first Zionist Congress held in Basel, Switzerland in 1897, the year of 2931 on the Jewish calendar. Zionism was the movement to establish a Jewish state in the Land of Israel where the people would have independent political authority.
