Megiddo, Israel

Megiddo is a kibbutz in Israel. Megiddo is located near the intersection between highways 65 (from Hadera to Afula) and 66 (going from Haifa south to Samaria), which is called the Megiddo Junction. The junction is the site of a bus terminal and a large military prison for Palestinians convicted of security offences, in most cases and abetting terrorism. Located near the site of the several Battles of Megiddo and Tel Megiddo, a rich archeological site. In apocalyptic literature, Mount Megiddo (Hebrew: Har Megiddo), the hill overlooking the valley where the current kibbutz is located, is identified as the site of the final battle between the forces of good and evil at the end of time, known as Armageddon.
