Jewish Amnesia !

Jewish amnesia is far too common in the disappearing Diaspora, with Jewish liberals rarely allowing the facts to get in the way of their myopic view of Jewish life in foreign lands. No matter what, they choose to hide their Jewish identity in fear of enraging their gentile hosts while clamouring for more and more financial aid in providing security for Jewish schools and often synagogues that are coming under attack from their gentile neighbours. He does not realise that a new reality has taken hold of gentile society, reflecting the fragile environment that threatens to return the Jew to the ghetto from whence he came not long ago. In this state of cultural amnesia, he can’t recognise that hostile waves of Jewish hatred surround him. His humiliation is plain for all to see, but he does not see, for he has chosen Jewish amnesia.

These forgetful Jews reject the meaning of 1948, having lived under gentile favour for so long, they cannot recognise that the dream of two thousand years has been realised, and a Jewish State exists in the Land of Israel. A Jewish State, the only place where a Jew can truly stand upright with dignity and Jewish memory pervades his every waking hour.

Fortunately, Jewish amnesia is curable, and hope for their return to Jewish sanity can be achieved in Israel as a Nation in the Land!

Yosef Yigal Drever and Sylvia Drever co-founded Achdut HaLev in 2006 to reach out to the Jewish community's around the world providing support in learning Torah and promoting the 'Return of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel.' Yosef Yigal made Aliya in 2014 while Sylvia his wife is an Israeli. In late 2014 Achdut HaLev concentrated all its resources towards Aliya and the rebuilding of Eretz Yisrael. Excluding none and embracing all. The commandment to settle the Land of Israel is equal in importance to all the Torah Commandments all together: (Sifri Deut 12:29)
