๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ In God We Trust | ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Am Yisrael Chai

Today I became an American Israeli.

It took the darkest day in Israelโ€™s history as a State for me to understand that this is the safest home in the world for we, the Jewish people. I was born in America to the great grandson of immigrants who fled Europe. We heard stories about the Holocaust, but the United States of America always provided us safe passage.

When those rockets fell on my head, I finally understood that someone is trying to kill me even though I did nothing to them except be Jewish.

This is a feeling I donโ€™t think any American can relate to unless they feel it deep in their bones like I have in the days since 10/7. Iโ€™m a proud Jew. I want to live in peace. Israel is our home, my home.
