1. Multicultural Multiracial Israel
Leon Wasser MBA PEng ,   Toronto, Canada   (01.28.11)
"Stangers No More" tells a story that the vast majority of the world's media, leaders and general population don't realize, the fact that Israel is a highly diverse global nation. Numerous ignorant opinion makers strive to portray Israel as an aparthied-like state - when reality is exactly the oposite with a multilingual, multiracial, and even multi-religious population. Regarding the Beta Israel from Ethiopia, Israel has the unique status as the only country in the world that actively sought and facilitated large scale immigration of poor uneducated Africans despite enormous obstacles to this heroic unsung epic. The forgotten refugees from Morocco, Tunesia, Iraq, Iran, Egypt, the Soviet Union and many other oppressive nations is another reality that the world has not adequately appreciated. `stangers No More`helps to begin to redress this massive deficit in the long overdue of Israel`s thousands of human rights victories.
