A clandestine undertaking on behalf of Israel, the Jets and the Jews.

 
330 Make Aliyah

As reported in today's Haaretz, 330 new olim from the United States and Canada arrived in Israel yesterday. More than 600 other people will be arriving later this summer, thanks to the good work of Nefesh B'nefesh.

Those who are moving to Israel from North America are truly heroic. Rather than watch anxiously from the sidelines as I do, they are choosing to participate in the extraordinary effort of the Jewish people to establish and secure a state in the Land of Israel. The new immigrants know that at least in the short-term, life may be diificult in Israel, that they will sacrifice economically and be thousands of miles from family and friends, but they have decided to face the many challenges instead of rationalizing why moving to Israel is not feasible for them at this time.
