The Jews Are The Winningest Team in Human History — Rabbi Leor Sinai

That also hasn't been the paradigm of a lot of legacy institutions in the diaspora that have focused tremendously on Holocaust education, anti-Semitism, because their framework has been Jews are like everyone else.

They just go to a Jewish church.

Let's find a way to blend in because that will reduce anti-Semitism.

And you might argue that for 10, 15, 20 years that did work.

Jews have become an accepted community.

in america and america is meant to be the best place to be as a jew after israel itself but it's not serving us anymore and it forces us to reckon with the fact that we are now we are left with no choice but to tell the story the way that you've just articulated it and be open about our lineage and our heritage because there's no way to hide

You know, in pre-Holocaust, Jews lived in Poland for 1,200 years.

Jewish life as we know it today through, if it's Jewish law, poetry, literature, was developed in Poland.

Half of the 6 million, 3 million were from Poland descent, Jews from Poland.

Poland was the golden medina, the golden state, the place where every Jew could live and develop.

And then, of course, it turned out not so good for the Jew after all.

Now, I'm not saying that that can necessarily happen here, but there are certainly, we have to be honest with ourselves.

If we put on our judar, if you will, our Jewish radar, and if we are honest with ourselves and we note history and see the patterns in history, because history, you know, I'll give you an example.

If you are in real estate or in the stock market, right? And if you're in finance and you've done it long enough, you've been around for 20, 30 years in the business, then you begin to identify cycles.

Exactly.

Here's a time to sell.

Now's a good time to buy.

Let's stay.

Stay put.

Whether you're in real estate, right? There's all these, right? And if you've been around for a long, you can identify these patterns.

History runs on patterns.

It's cyclical.

And so if you know history, and I'm a huge fan of history, our people's history, but humanity as well, then you begin to see a pattern that is resembling things that took place in the past.

Look, I'll be honest with you.

I believe that here in the United States, there is still an opportunity to turn things around.
