the flag of Israel history.

The flag of Israel has two blue stripes on a white background with a star or shied of David (in Hebrew it is Magen David) in the center. It was inspired by the tallit (the prayer shawl worn by Jews during prayer) as a symbol. The shield of David is a common symbol of the people of Israel from Biblical times. The shield of David made of two equilateral triangles, is located in the Middle of the flag.
