I'm no more or less Jewish than any other Jew. Israel has survived because we haven't forgot our Judaism, but there are some Israelis who did forget.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As a Jew I am aware of how important the existence of Israel is for the survival of us all. And because I am proud of being Jewish, I am worried by the growing anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism in the world.
I marvel at the resilience of the Jewish people. Their best characteristic is their desire to remember. No other people has such an obsession with memory.
Jewish existence in the Land of Israel depends only on the Jews, and on what the Jews think of themselves.
I am not a lover of Israel, of course. I have no reason to be. But I don't hate Jews.
I'm a supporter of Israel, always have been.
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.
There is no question that Israelis - indeed, all concerned Jews - have to continue to work out a Jewish public philosophy that truly justifies a Jewish state in the land of Israel.
It's clear to me that one can't be Jewish without Israel. Religious or non-religious, Zionist or non-Zionist, Ashkenazi or Sephardic - all these will not exist without Israel.
Jewish people are tough people. They believe in something and believe it really strong, and I find it fascinating that a small country like Israel is as powerful as it is.
You know, I get much more Jewish in Israel because I like the way that religion is done there.
