Just as we say "Never again" remembering the Holocaust, when we remember the fallen on Memorial Day we need to think about how to protect the living, how to continually secure the survival of the Sate of Israel and Jews world wide. President Peres was talking about peace, but peace with neighbors seemingly only interested in the destruction of Jews is farther than ever. General Gantz talked about winning with a mighty military, but it is difficult to imagine that Israel can keep winning against all odds with growing international and local pressure, military buildup, and with potential allies waning fast. Israel can only survive if the rest of the world understands, sees that they cannot exist without the Jews and Israel. And this feeling will not come from Nobel Prizes, nor from Hollywood, doctors, lawyers, scientists or world class musicians. This feeling can only come from our ancient method of unity against hatred, mutual responsibility above inherent differences and rejection. This is the method we are supposed to show them through positive national example, and this is the only method that can pull the world out of the desperate, deepening global crisis, threatening humanity's survival on multiple fronts. Today the whole world needs the miraculous, "supra-national" survival skills, the Jews have been displaying all though history.

Which borders ? And which citizens ?

It is rare when someone from your area, speaks with these words to us. In Israel, we really hope for peace with all of our neighbours and all Arab countries. You are courageouas.

zaina, thank you from israel. we wish for our countries to have peace one day. shalom. salam.

Victims that we were of national socialism -- even following into today's Mid-East per the Ba'athist's, I think we need to re-establish ourselves as its inversion -- social nationalism. That is and intense national unity for the sake of the social progress of the whole world. That is, the national socialist states crushes others to protect themselves, while Israel must protect itself for the sake of being a role model of unity to the planet. We must survive in our particularism exactly for the most noble of universal ideals -- the ancient calling of a Light Unto the Nations.
