I plan to travel in Israel this May but I am not sure what to expect. Is travel in Israel safe at this time?

According to a U.S. Department of State’s travel warning published on July 13, 2007, “The Gaza Strip has witnessed considerable violence in recent months, both between Palestinian factions and between Israeli security forces and armed Palestinian groups. Similar incidents have also occurred in the West Bank. Violent demonstrations, kidnappings and shootings have also occurred in both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank”.

I was in Egypt this past August; it seemed safe and secure. Just wondering if it is the same in Israel.
