Comment

The hope and dream of returning from exile to Israel have accompanied the Jewish people since the day they were first expelled from their land by the kingdoms of Assyria and Babylon. The Book of Psalms illustrates the lamentation "On the rivers of Babylon where we sat and wept in remembrance of Zion" as well as the joy of the first return from Babylon "In the return of God the return of Zion, we were like dreamers." As soon as the gates of the land opened, the country took in more than a million immigrants, and in less than thirty years, a quarter of the Jewish people regrouped in it. Refugees, Holocaust survivors from Europe, refugees from the terror of the Arab countries, seekers of national freedom and dreamers of returning to Zion, speaking dozens of languages, more From a hundred postcards of origin, hundreds and thousands of communities merged here into one, Jewish and Israeli community. There is no example in the history of the world of such a tremendous act of a people returning to their homeland and succeeding in consolidating their national life and rebuilding their culture.
