UK - the M3 that is tearing down Tara (it is a known passage into the otherworld as well as many other Celtic and Druid bindings).
Yep, right here in Ireland  I'm more than familiar with this one.

The main goal of all Druid's is to become one with nature. There is a lot of time and effort spent learning about it and working with it and the energy it contains. To stress a little on a single point that is contained in this; we are all equal from the knat to the human beggar.
Rituals are important for the high and low days, however, personal choice on all other times. Most Druids have ritual usually once a month; but for the most part it is dedicated to a diety or land spirit. There are some Druid's that hold a small ritual as their daily routine; I feel that it seems you do as you feel necissary. I personally only have them 6 times a year. On the average Druid's hold more how you live you life instead of the amount and correctness of ritual.

What?
I said "I'm more than familiar with Tara" because I live near it, never said anything about Druidism

I don't think that the religion consists only of this info, if you know what I mean. Religions are more than just citing or understanding a piece of text

I don't think the religion is truly a secret, it's more like what they do that it is

Antipaladin to address your concerns
Cepheus was merely stating that when I mentioned the M3 it was something well known because Cepheus is in the area where this news is of concern.
The other issue was addressed by TheDeath - Thanks!
As for a group in Isreal I was unable to find a physical group. If you wanted to learn more and/or be taught more about the religion you would need to start by reading. Feel free to pick the path you want and go to the website of ADF or OBOD and check out their reading list. Your reading as you go through it will take you to many other books. Once you are sure I would start by contacting a group you feel more connected with.
If you wanted a very raw start I would advise you to begin your journey by reading either Bonewit's Essential Guide to Druidism & The Solitary Druid by Skip Ellison /or/ The Druidry Handbook by Michael Greer depending on the path you choose to learn about. They even suggest further reading choices in there.

The God/Goddess are varied according to the pantheon you choose to follow. There are many pantheon's and I am not totally educated in that area, however, if you are very interested you could check out the following or one's like them.
The ancient Greek God/Goddess
The ancient Roman God/Goddess
The ancient Egyptian God/Goddess
The ancient Norse God/Goddess
The ancient Celtic God/Goddess
Each have their own Gods and Goddess' and mythology where you can learn more about them.
Many Druids seem to know of and/or follow the ancient Celtic pantheon, however, not all groups require this.
You can find material online and in books
