WHY I LOVE BEING A JEW
This
is why I love being a Jew: Written by Dan Sporn from Israel :
Our condition has never been better than it is now! Only the
television and the media make people think that the end of the world
is near. Only 65 years ago, Jews were brought to death like sheep to
slaughter. NO country, NO army. Only 60 years ago, seven Arab
countries declared war on little Israel, the Jewish state, just a
few hours after it was established.
We were 650,000 Jews against the rest of the Arab world. No I.D.F.
(Israeli Defense Forces) or Air Force. We were only a small group of
stubborn people with nowhere to go.
Remember : Lebanon , Syria , Iraq , Jordan , Egypt , Libya , and
Saudi Arabia, they all attacked at once. The state that the United
Nations "gave" us was 65% desert. We started it from zero.
Only 41 years ago, we fought three of the strongest countries in the
Middle East , and we crushed them in the Six Day War.
Over the years we fought different coalitions of Arab countries with
modern armies and huge amounts of Russian-Soviet ammunition, and we
still won.
Today we have a beautiful country, powerful army, strong air force,
and a thriving high tech industry. Intel, Microsoft, and I.B.M. all
develop their business here.
Our doctors have won important prizes in the medical development
field. We turn desert into prosperous land. We sell oranges,
flowers, and vegetables around the world.
We launched our own satellite! Three satellites at once! We are in
good company; together with the USA (280 million residents), Russia
(220 million residents), China (1.3 billion residents) and Europe
(France, England and Germany - 35 million residents), we are one of
the only countries in the world that have launched something into
space!
Israel today is among the few powerful countries that have nuclear
technology & capabilities (we will never admit it, but everyone
knows).
To think that only 65 years ago we were disgraced and hopeless. We
crawled out form the burning crematoriums of Europe, we won in all
our wars. With little bit of nothing and we built us an empire from
nothing.
Who are Khaled Mashal (leader of Hamas) or Hass an Nasrallah (leader
of Hezbollah) try and frighten us? They are amusing us.
As we celebrate our independence, let's not forget what this is all
about; we overcame everything:
-
We overcame the Greeks
-
We overcame the Romans
-
We overcame the Spanish Inquisition
-
We overcame the Russians pogroms
-
We overcame Hitler, we overcame Germany, we overcame the
Holocaust
-
We overcame the armies of seven countries
Relax chevray (friends), we will overcome our current enemies.
Never mind where you look in human history. Think about it, the
Jewish nation, our condition has never been better than now. So
let's lift our heads up and remember:
Never mind which country or culture tries to harm us or erase us
from the world. We will still exist and persevere.
Egypt? Anyone know where the Egyptian empire disappeared to? The
Greeks? Alexander Macedon? The Romans? Is anyone speaking Latin
today? The third Reich? Did anyone hear news from them lately?
And look at us, the Bible nation - from slavery in Egypt, we are
still here, still speaking the same language. Exactly here, exactly
now.
Maybe The Arabs don't know it yet, but we are an eternal nation. All
the time that we will keep our identity, we will stay eternal.
So, sorry that we are not worrying, complaining, crying, or fearing.
Business here is beseder (fine). It can definitely be much better,
but it is still fine. Don't pay attention to the nonsense in the
media, they will not tell you about our festivals here in Israel or
about the people that continue living, going out, meeting friends.
Yes, sometimes morale is down, so what? This is only because we are
mourning the dead while they are celebrating spilled blood. And this
is the reason we will win after all.
Please feel free to send the link of this page to all of your
friends, Jew and gentile everywhere in the world. You are all part
of our force to keep our existence.
This webpage may help some of us lift our heads up and be proud to
say:
I AM A JEW
Delusion
Resistance Note: While the letter above was written by someone who
is obviously secular in opinion, it does show the determination of
the Jewish People, but more importantly, it shows the determination
and the miraculous power of El Shaddai who through a mighty hand has
delivered the Jewish people over the millennia and who will soon
fight for Israel and ultimately come back to redeem us as a people
set apart unto Himself. Baruch Ha Shem Ha Mashiach Yeshua, Baruch Ha
Shem Yahweh. [Blessed be the name of our Messiah Jesus, Blessed be
the Name of the Lord God of Israel!] |
