Shalom friends,

This is a historic time in Israel. We just celebrated Israel’s 70th Independence Day and 51 years since the reunification of Jerusalem, Israel won the Eurovision and America has officially moved the embassy to Israel’s eternal capital - Jerusalem.

As Israel rises in prominence and Jewish sovereignty is fulfilled in its various expressions, resistance to Israel rises. This is not a reaction to new events, or “political backlash” but a continuation of the age-old battle – antisemitism, often veiled as anti-Zionism.

Now, more than ever, it is time to arm ourselves with knowledge so that we can effectively respond to expressions of Antisemitism and be sure that our people are ready for the next 4000 years.
