Am Yisrael Chai

There are always going to be people that protest the mayor, okay? It's always gonna happen.

Just as I've said before, if Zahra Mamdani came out and said, "Am Israel Chai" tomorrow, there would still be ultra-Zionists protesting him outside of Gracie Manor saying, "Oh, how dare you? How dare you be Muslim?" You know? It's gonna happen.

That's normal.

He knows that.

Shalom.

I'm Yisrael Chai.

... everybody's a victim, and everybody needs a safe place.

And imagine surviving the Holocaust, raising children who have such a connection to Klal Yisrael, to Am Yisrael, the people, the nation, and to Eretz Yisrael, Medinat Yisrael.

And to come and build the way that, that you have is inspirational.

And, um-

You ...

I'm Jewish, and I always hope for good because I have one big thing all above whatever I see and whatever I witness, and this is faith in the Hakadosh Baruch Hu, faith in God.

We say, "Am Yisrael Chai," the people of Israel lives.

That's the most optimistic thing you can say or believe in-

But what we've seen in Reflections of Faith, you get the sense that you, you see that it's all the more striking because you see it just coming from all segments of the f- or at least so many different segments of Israeli society.

It could just be from, uh, videos of, of people in the shuk singing, uh, the "Am Yisrael Chai" song, "Am ha'netzach l'olam lo m'fached," the eternal people never fears.

And that's a, a pretty theologically relevant statement.

And so i- i-t this-- you see this throughout Israeli society r-reflecting, of course, Jon, that even though people use these terms all the time, dati, chiluni, they're not actually phrases that accurately capture differences.

We refuse to fail.

I'm Yisrael Chai.

Thanks for watching.

So, uh, thank you so much.

This has really been an incredible honor and a pleasure, and, uh, as they say in the old country, Am Yisrael Chai.

Am Yisrael Chai.
