Baruch Cohen: Israel: Young at 66

In Loving Memory of Malca z”l

 

Happy Birthday Israel!

 

As Israel celebrates its 66th anniversary, the Jewish state is stronger today than ever before.

From the ruins of Europe, the ashes of the gas chambers, the concentration camps, Egypt, Morocco, Poland, Russia, Romania and from dozens of other lands, the Jewish people have created one of the most vibrant and successful countries—Israel, sustained by our ancient faith. Am Israel Chai!

 

Because of the painful loss and sacrifice of some of our finest and bravest sons and daughters, we can proudly and strongly celebrate our 66th anniversary. Today, Israel reminds the world that it is facing increasing waves of radical Islamism and global antisemitism, a nuclear-bound Iran who harbours both global ambitions and a will to destroy the Jewish state. We must remember our ancient hope and belief that “the eternity of Israel will never falter.”

 

Netzach Israel Lo Yishker!

Hag Hatzmaut Saneach!
