Jews can build in New York, Moscow and Paris, but in our own land, we can't build? That's nuts.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The Land of Israel needs to build and be built, period.
Jews can live their own life as Jews and yet be part of a different country.
But we wish to give the Jews a Homeland. Not by dragging them ruthlessly out of their sustaining soil, but rather by removing them carefully, roots and all, to a better terrain.
The land which the Society of Jews will have secured by international law must naturally be privately owned.
We do not build new Jewish communities in Samaria, Judea and Gaza. The United States has never accepted our building of communities or of the fence. Yet, I've managed to develop relations between Israel and the United States even though President Bush never supported settlements.
The great question of our day is whether we, the Jewish people of Israel, can find within us the will to survive as a nation.
Ours is a country built more on people than on territory. The Jews will come from everywhere: from France, from Russia, from America, from Yemen... Their faith is their passport.
Israel was founded as a refuge for the Jewish people, but today it isn't a safe place. It is safer to be Jew in New York.
We must continue building in all corners of the Land of Israel, with determination and without being confused.
We need to do everything possible to save the Jewish state. We don't have another Jewish state.
