On Yom Ha’atzmaut, Israel’s 71st Independence Day, the words of the national anthem ring in our minds and hearts. Hatikva. The Hope.

Israel’s national anthem – Hatikva – expresses the hope of the Jewish People.

During 2,000 years of exile and suffering, Jews from all over the world dreamed of returning to their biblical homeland, the Land of Israel.

In 1948, the modern State of Israel was established, turning these hopes and dreams into reality!

Happy Birthday Israel! Let us all celebrate this modern miracle!
