*NOTES/CORRECTIONS*
1. This is your last chance to participate in the 2023 viewer survey, as it closes at the end of this month: forms.gle/kJkMuvZNQex4oNYa9
2. I can’t guarantee that my next video, which will be the last of this run of episodes, will be out in the usual three weeks. This is quite literally the biggest _thing_ I’ve ever done, and there’s just too much research, writing, artwork, and collabortion to know that a timely release is possible, especially as I’ll be traveling while working on it. It’ll come out when it comes out and I’ll try to make that as soon as possible, and in the meantime I’ll try to release some bonus content.
3. *CORRECTION:* Cemal Paşa’s meeting was only with Ben-Zvi, not Ben-Gurion.
4. I forgot to credit "Gordon's Niggun," a musical piece written by A.D. Gordon and performed by Nizzan Zvi Cohen.
Take all the time you need to research, write, and produce. We are so greatful that you have provided us with this series so far. Thank you for what you have given us so far.
It's quality, not quantity that's keeping us all coming back for more. Take as much time as you need, including time to decompress and relax.
@@zugabdu1 True, but (1) I don't want to make a habit of it and (2) the next video will be the finale of the current run, so having it come out much later isn't desirable.
@@SamAronowand the deadly algorithm likes a constant stream of content .🙃😒 but be sure to relax and enjoy your time in the states.
Should you pin this comment? I feel corrections and notes should be pinned in videos for ease of access and clarity.
Also, pove what you're doing. As a history major focusing on Jewish-American history, you always give me good stuff. And have helped people in my local Hillel and AEPi chapter get more interested in our history.
I don’t know any Jewish history so I watch these like television and that Gruen reveal was nuts.
The face I made when you revealed Green's Hebrew name lmao, must've been how some of your commenters felt when you revealed Ulyanov as Lenin
The Ben-Gurion reveal was mad
As someone who lives in Israel but isn't interested very much in its history, this show and particularly this episode opened my eyes to the history that surrounds us.
It's a lot of fun pointing at the people you introduced and say "I know them! They're the street I walk through every day! That one's a school! I finally know who these people are!"
That's somewhat depressing.
As a Jew by Choice I really appreciate this series as I don’t have the cultural or ancestral connection to Jewishness that many others do. I appreciate you.
Oh are you a convert? I’ve never heard it called that but I like it. I’m gonna start saying that. “Jew by choice” rolls better of the tongue than “convert.” 😂
I'm a convert too, and I feel the same. Saying that there's a lot to learn is an understatement of the century, but hey, if your soul calls for it, then it's totally worth it. Jewish history, religion and culture has been my major hyperfixation for 6 years I believe, maybe longer, and I still learn something every day, and still find joy in it.
Actually, I think that now I have a better grasp on Jewish history than most of the actual Jewish people in my country, given that most of them are either Orthodox Christians or Atheists and don't care about their ancestry at all, which is *totally* cool, good for them to find their faiths elsewhere, but I wish we all had better connection with our roots.
As someone with Jewish ancestry patrilineally, I had to "convert." I prefer Jew by choice because I chose to practice, even though I do have an ancestral connection.
@@Airman1121 that’s interesting! I’ve heard of ancestral Jews having to convert but it’s interesting to know different ways the term is used
All adult Jews are Jews by choice
Tsarist to AnCom to British officer? jeez what an arc
Ben-Gurion did love being ridiculously stubborn even when it provided him no advantages or even made any sense to do so
I wish more people had heeded it towards the end of his life.
@@SamAronow
Well, they kinda did. That's why he was kicked out of the leadership of Mapa"i.
Yeah, but he ended up being very right about one specific thing after he was kicked out. And the people who had taken over knew he was right, but they gave up on trying to do anything about it.
@@SamAronow... what are you referring to? What was the one thing DBG was right about?
@@SionTJobbins
He obviously is going to do a segment about it, or include it in one.
21:15 I remember reading something in a biography of Louis Brandeis, when he went to Palestine around this time, getting extremely frustrated at the Zionists who were focused on building Hebrew schools instead of getting the malaria under control first. Good to know he wasn't completely alone 😄
I'm a Jew and Israeli, and learning this in school was extremely annoying. The burnt out teachers, the lack of chronological order in teaching, the hormones, not being compulsory for matriculation exams, and the general feeling that the information has no real value in the market later. But here on Sam's channel, it's pleasant. Interesting. Simply put. Thrilling. A mystery that unfolds. Clear.
Interesting that the group which supported greater copperation with arabs in Palestine were originally more assimilated in Russia. It seems that it contributed to their different view about relations between Jews and non-Jews
OTOH Ben-Zvi was from Poltava and Gordon was from Troyanov.
Well... probably because they were more assimilated to the Marxists movements within Russia rather than to Russia itself.
It's kind of Crazy to me how we are already moving into the Mandatory era. I have been watching you for years and the quality of your videos has only got better.
p.s. As an Australian Jew, I look forward to Aussies finally getting a mention!
This video brought me chills. Hearing of the people I see every day on street signs and hear stories about in a timeline really makes you think what their actions did and how the impacted the Jewish world.
Tho Serb nationalists like to claim Gavrilo Princip as their own, he actually called himself a 'Yugoslav nationalist', which was (as he himself said) an anti-imperialist moniker, and one that also shows distancing from Serb nationalism. He also read anarchist literature and was influenced by his anarchist and socialist comrades from the (multi-ethnic) Young Bosnia organization.
As someone more familiar with Bundism and its path, I am very excited to see how things on this parallel stage of Jewish politics developed.
I had family who fled in 1905 from Russia who were Bundists. While most of the family papers are with my aunt, a few are with me, framed on my bookshelf. Its not a part of family history most of us know about so I gave my self the task since ~2021 to look into what my great great grandfather was working towards.
Love your videos and keep it up!
7:30 "lmao what if it's David ben-Gurion...
HOLY SHIT IT IS"
15:00 This "Young worker" has been through a lot. What hard work does to human body...
Ben Gurion is rocking that Tarboush!
Really enjoy your videos. Re: the Ottoman Empire ~ The ruling junta wasn't unified except in desire to maintain and abuse power unaccountably. Its members had few boundaries on manipulating each other, including treacherously consorting with foreign interests. War entry was foolish and (given the decision's dire seriousness) shockingly impetuous and poorly controlled even by the junta, and was not the result of a strong or unified pro-German alignment or war policy, though illusory early German war success played a role. Of course, the video is correct that war maximized the abuse of peaceful, potentially loyal Jews (plus obviously Armenians and others) as Cemal Pasha ruled Ottoman Syria and Palestine like a personal fiefdom.
Thank you. This will come up in more detail later.
wasn't it also generally true that the ottoman state was dependent on the german economy at the time?
The Pashas were so rapacious that they hampered their war effort just to persecute the non-Turkish minorities.
Just as usual great fascinating well written and well paced video. Thanks Sam!
It's really impressive how much you bring these episodes to life
OMG!! I have watched almost all your videos. This was the best!!! You had me on the edge of my seat. Great job!!
Such an amazing video keep it up!
This is probably your best video ever, I genuinely got a chill through my spine at some parts
He does it again. Another banger, courtesy of the great Sam Aronow. Keep ‘em coming!
Absolutely amazing video. I love how you weave together all the independent "characters" of Jewish history which you've talked about, really build out the narrative of the whole piece. I have a number of family members who were Kibbutzniks, and I really got the feeling from them that their assumption of the lifestyle was developed through their view of continuing the "classical" Jewish narrative, and I really feel like you did that such a great justice with your coverage of events here. Great video, 10/10, would conglomerate my assets and start producing ammunition in the basement of my wash room again.
I adore so much interesting information on display here, thank you for this
Always love your videos, I hope you do a video on Australasia/Oceana at some point!
Australia will become important soon. Not a special yet, but certainly a place of significance in Jewish history.
Come to think of it, the ANZACs are going to be _all over_ the next series of videos.
@@SamAronow Glad to hear it, and I hope that New Zealand gets mentioned!
@@singularkakapo I'll have you know that (spoilers) it was the Kiwis who accepted the Ottoman surrender at Jaffa! There's a picture of it happening at the town square where I walked every day.
As an Aussie, I only ever talked to Jewish people once, I was holidaying in Melbourne and walked into a synagogue, thinking it was a church and enjoyed myself talking to them 😅
So much history that I wasn't aware of - these videos are really informative and eye-opening. You tell how everything fits together, and how things unfolded. Where I had heard the bits and pieces, they were disconnected from each other in my mind. Thanks to your videos I understand much better.
Yesssssssssss!
I like to put your videos on twoards the end of Shabbat dinner!❤❤
Will you ever cover the Romaniote Jews or the Jews from Lebanon?
Sam, it was nice to see Cleveland on the charts. 😊 and i like how you dropped Golda in there quietly early on...😁 i hope you are enjoying your summer.
Hello Sam. I just wanted to tell you, thank you for this wonderful series. Greetings from Argentina.
This is the greatest Jewish history channel on UA-cam.
Mazal tov on continued success on this platform. I have sent your videos to my whole family. Keep hustling ahi!
Ok the use of music all throughout was amazing. Would like to add that I’m both surprised and not surprised that Trumpeldor joined yet another army. Looking forward to your next videos.
Also I doubt you’ll see this but please link your music in the future, you have such an amazing selection.
I really love the transformation of Trumpeldor at the end! Also with the music. It just reminds me of the movie Exodus.
Thank you!
It's always a fine day when Sam uploads.
These videos are an incredible work of history, they provide a great accessible introduction to areas of jewish history that are not easy to find out about just through wikipedia or google searches, love this stuff!!!
actually amazing! if only i had this last year when i was doing my history final on the yishuv
It's amazing how the Ottoman authorities did everything possible to destroy their own country.
Again, just like the same period in Russia!

Hi sam! True fan here. I have been watching your vids for a year and am very excited for you to get to the jewish underground resistance era in the 30-40s. Im currently working as a tour guide at the Lehi Museum in florentin and would love to have you visit.
Its in the actual authentic apartment where Avraham Stern was murderered 81 years ago!
Clicked as soon as i saw the notification!! I'm probably the only malaysian watches your videos.
I looked it up and there have been six respondents to my survey in Malaysia.

m8, i really hope i am not the only Indonesian that subscribe to this men content and watch almost all of his videos
Trumpledor sounds like what 21st leftists would call a "brocialist" lmao
Dude gives me Hasan Piker vibes ngl.
Fun fact: Ben-Gurion and Trotsky qere both in Nova Scotia in 1917, at the same time. Always fun to think what would gave hapoened if they exchanged places.
It's amazing how in both the Ottoman Empire and the Russian Empire, the Jewish People presented themselves fairly straight-forwardly as a Loyal National Minority only to be met with Irrationally Self-destructive Religious and Nationalist elements that ignored all Jewish efforts at cooperation.
I would be interested in knowing more about the dynamic between the Government and the People, how did the Turkish and Arab populations perceptive this irrationality? Did they even know that the Jewish community was supportive of the Ottomans in spite of their governments rebukes? Or was playing to irrational Popular sentiment a major cause for the State's actions in the first place?
I'd ask how did other National Minorities in Russia react to the legal treatment of the Jews, or was their oppression just as comprehensive as well, but I'd imagine that will come into play soon enough - given where we are in the timeline.
Ben-Gurion and Ben-Zvi were really outliers within the Yishuv. Most had had a very bad experience with Ottoman rule, not only because of the legal issues that had begun under Abdülhamid but also because the Young Turk Revolution had inflamed ethnic tensions in the region to their detriment. When the war broke out, most avoided taking an explicit position out of fear but shared Trumpeldor's perspective that the Ottoman Empire was doomed.
Not even Jewish but I cheered when Bar Giora showed up
What's up, jerks!?
This is an extraordinary presentation of such series of events and people who shaped the foundation of what we now know as the State of Israel. Thank your for your effort and will be following your series to learn more about this incredibly important subject.
Best episode yet.
Thanks!
Looking forward to your third Aaliyah video, good job very engaging and seemingly neutral, comprehensive perspective which is refreshing
This is gripping!
That intro paragraph frim Isreal was so well written.
7:25 I happened to attend the same elementary school as that teenage runaway… although the name has since changed from when she was a pupil.
I have been learning so much from you channel. Especially the 19th - 20th century. I grew up in Israel, was educated there in the 70s', and most of this episode is completely new to me. I guess Israeli education - when it comes to modern Israeli history was just never that good. Although small world story- my high school, The religious girls school - Evelina De Rothschild in Jerusalem was a polling station, I'm not sure why it wasn't a national holiday, but Golda Meir came and voted, and said hello to us. She was very small and unimpressive looking. This was after the Yom Kippur war - so I'm sure the weight of the world really had its affect on her.
Yeah, we're now entering an era with people the viewer might actually have met! For me that was the last episode, when my aunt Ethel had a cameo. She was born in Kiev during the Beilis trial and I carried her casket in 2011.
This thing is so intense, it feels like we're nearing a series finale, and this is the beginning of a 3 part finale or sum. Frs tho, this is a very cool way of telling Jewish history, a topic that I rarely see covered at this level, and a topic that's so cool and interesting, especially for someone like me who likes history, I love it!!
The next video will be the finale of the Long 19th Century.
@@SamAronow can’t wait!
6:46 Tangent, but it's pretty incredible that the US emerged from its civil war into a booming, rapidly growing economy. That basically never happens. Especially when the cause of the war was the economic system of the states in rebellion, and Union victory meant dismantling it. Imagine abolishing the economic system that supported a third of your population and *still* have an economic boom immediately follow. That is a truly astonishing rate of growth.
(I could be petty and point out a suggestive correlation between the absence of certain states from Congress and Congress finally passing a bunch of growth-friendly bills that the absent states had been rejecting for at least a decade...)
Well, that's because it wasn't a civil war in the conventional sense, but a regional war of independence that failed. And just as in the World Wars, American industry was almost entirely far, far away from the battlefield and thus undamaged by the war. I did talk about this a bit in my video "Minhag America (1789-1885)."
@@SamAronow True (and I should go back and re-watch that episode).
That said, we shouldn't fail to note that Northern industry owed a lot to the cotton produced by the enslaved of the South. Nobody's hands were completely clean in the US economy (and thus not entirely unaffected by abolition) no matter how far north they were.
And it's also worth noting that most of the south did become economically devastated after the Civil War and it basically remained that way for about century until the south started to industrialize in the '80s and '90s (around the same time the democratic party started losing its monopoly on politics in the south).
@@SamAronowalso the Civil War gave northern states complete control of Congress for about a decade which enabled a series of pro-industrial reforms that the southerners had blocked.
This show is incredible.
Love your videos. One question, the map on around 1'28" - what's going on in Egypt, what' the straight diagonal line and the other shaded pink area in Sinai?
In 1906, the Ottomans occupied Egyptian Taba to expand their port at Aqaba. The British counter-occupied it in response, and quickly a deal was worked out to cede what is now Eilat to the Ottomans. This established the present border.
Yay, I learned things!
I applaud the choice of majoras mask music!
I'm taking now some Palestinian history course in tel aviv University, and while it's kind of assuming that everybody is knowledgeable about jewish history and actually doesn't talk about the yishuv as much as I expected, the lecturer did offhandedly mention that by the 1880s Jerusalem was majority Jewish and furthermore talked at lengths about how its quality of life was so advanced compared to the rest of the Levant, so how did that yishuv influence the zionists that were living in squalor on the coast at the time? In your eliezer Ben Yehuda video they seemed like a small, insular and bigoted community but in my course they seem relatively liberal and very important.
I didn't say the Old Yishuv as a whole was insular, but specifically the Haredim and especially Hasidim of Jerusalem.
I come from a HaShomer HaTzair background and we still see much of the world in the way presented here.
My mother as well.
Maybe Hebrew was "bourgeois" because it didn't arise spontaneously from Jewish-Arab lingua franca communication and required a special educational regime?
because it was the language of the clergy and the early liberal zionists like Herzl
Yes. probably because Hebrew had to be learned and was not a language spoken by most Jewish workers
@@coe3408
*Yet
Will you do a video on the old yishuv one day? I know a lot of my family were part of the old yishuv but i dont know much about them and their way of life
What the three pashas are doing to the Ottoman Jewish community of 1914, feels like significant foreshadowing for what they are about to do to the Armenian people in 1915, which I assume will feature in your next video.
Not the next one, as we still have the pre-war finale covering _all_ the stuff that's been going on in America during this period. When we actually get into the war, I will revisit the Young Turk Revolution from the perspective of Avraam Benaroya and the SSIF, then back to Trumpeldor for the ZMC, and _then_ Nili, which will deal heavily with the Armenian Genocide. I have nine videos lined up for World War I.
@@SamAronow I was wondering if you'd touch on Nili, good to hear it won't be skipped over
All these famous figures coming to the scene basically all at once sounds like some sort of MCU type stuff
Extremely Good
20:19 Can't wait for Kook's successor futured in your videos
If you know, you know
I love to see the similarities between the Kibbutz and the traditional Serbian collective family farmstead or Zadruga, where an extended family owns land and agricultural products collectively within the farmstead, which one of our measly leftist thinkers, Svetozar Marković wanted to use as a basis for an economically equal society, though Kibbutzim solve Marković’s big hole of what to do with industry
As an Algerian, I find these videos really interesting 🧐
Hearing that David Ben-Gurion was born in Poland prompted me to look up his birth record. I found it and, interestingly, his birth date there (February 18, 1887) differs from the accepted birth date as seen on Wikipedia (October 16, 1886). I wonder, is his birth record known to be incorrect, or is it rather that an incorrect date has been accepted as common knowledge for some reason, and nobody bothered checking the birth record?
Correct me if I’m wrong but I think this is an Old Style New Style thing. It depends which calendar you use.
@@BitspokesV2 That would be a discrepancy of 12 days in the 19th century, here we're talking about 4 months. BTW, I started a discussion about this on the talk page of the article for David Ben-Gurion on the English Wikipedia. It turns out these mysterious discrepancies are more common.
I assume at some point you’re going to go into detail on the (I’m sure pretty complicated) Arab politics of this era? It seems relevant here
Trumpeldor leaving with a *handful* of followers got me cracking 😂
I'm fascinated by the idea that DNA has confirmed the Jewish origin of the Palestinians which article did you use I can't find it in your citations. I study population genetics and I really want to read it. Is it a GWAS?
Loved it!!! Could you please mention the youth movement Hashomer Hatzair in a video about the thied aliyah? From that era on the played a very important role in the zionist movement.
Thumbs up for the tram in that shot
Please share the study of the DNA test with us.
The Israeli left to this day is dealing with the tension between international Socialism and national Zionism. I recently heard a former MK bragging about the diversity and constant leadership changes in the left. He's not lying, but this constant overturn of ideologies and personnel is mostly due to the evolution of the left (now identity politics progressivism) together with the built-in conflict with Zionism. Aside from the philosophical contradictions between the two poles, Marx and Herzl, the left has a problem with international politics. It's natural comrades everywhere are decisively anti Israeli in rhetoric and anti-Semitic in practice.
Israeli “leftists” alienated the world with their expansionist and neocolonial policies. You can’t subjugate millions of Palestinians and then expect to welcome in leftist spaces.
Honestly, the unwillingness to welcome Palestinian voices was zionisms greatest sin, which really sucks for an otherwise noble movement. Hopefully the situation will improve soon and both sides can live equally in the area
@@pckrichards7980 thank you for your honesty. It's always heartwarming to hear opinions of people who don't have skin in the game but make up for it with holly judgment.
I don't think welcoming voices of movements that wanted us dead (DEAD!) is a virtue-more like stupidity. We had a brief romance in the early 90s. We welcomed their voice. They came here and their moderates said: "sure, we can have peace, just dig your dead relatives out of the ground and go back to Europe". That was an interesting experiment. We still feel the enormity of this mistake. Ever since those years we have had to deal with two sides of the vise: 1. we suffer massacres from the very entities we created to prepare for a Palestinian statehood (Give peace a chance) and 2. we get criticized for our "greatest sin", not doing enough. And they bring their opinion to places that have NOTHING to do with the Israeli-Arab conflict. They just can't help it. How does your reply even relate to what I wrote?
@@kakungulu I should have worded this better. What I meant was an earnest look back at how the conflict began, and a hope for a future where the region can actually be cohabitated by both Israelis and Palestinians. Your response just speaks to the current era of the conflict that, while I have done research over the past few months, I admit I don’t have the personal experience to properly speak on it, so I won’t.
I also don’t want to get in an argument on a f***ing UA-cam comment section.
@@pckrichards7980 There are Zionists who support peace and dialogue with the Palestinians. But the guy you replied to, in spite of his narcissistic whining about the international left not respecting Israel, is certainly not one of them.
Thank you for another great video. I’ve heard people say the kibbutzes were a form of anarchism; would you say that’s true?
I'll probably find out soon, as I'm looking to move onto one.
@@SamAronow ditto! I’m going to be making Aliyah soon and my plan is to move into a Kibbutz.
What do you plan to do once you reach current time? That's coming up relatively soon.
before i watch the video i wanted to ask how would you divide the north African Jewish community?
I think the main divide is Egypt, Libya/Tunisia/Algeria together due to the larger Sephardic influence, Morocco
Depends on the context. Normally I'd just distinguish by country.
@@SamAronow
I agree that it's context dependent heck Moroccan Jews divide themselves by cities even neighboring cities have different Mihagim not to mention Rural Jews and others I just think the general vibe is that morocco and Egypt are much more different than the rest of the Maghreb which is more similar to each other
based on your comments the next video will persumaly cover WWI
I mean, so do American Jews. You could even break it down by neighborhood. Minhag is all relative.
Egypt
Cyrenaica
Tripoli
Djerba
Tunis
Algeria (you may or may not divide them to 3 Algiers, West, Constantine)
Moroccans
Berber Jews (which in Hebrew are called Atlas Mountains Jews)
Talking about the 20th-today
But that's just my opinion.
הי סם, אני עוקב ומעריץ את הערוץ שלך, אני חושש שהיו הרבה החברות משמעותיות ופערים בפרק הנוכחי.למשל - לא להזכיר את עקיבא אריה וייס בהקשר של תל אביב, אבל יש לי עוד הרבה דברים משמעותיים שנראים לי חסרים, לקראת סרטון השלמת הנושא שבטח תעשה
Fun astrological fact!Ben Giurion was an 11th house Libra with simmiliraty to Benjamin Netanyahu also an 11th house Libra 4 planets as well!Ben Gurion was a nicer man though!
While being a tough subject I think it’d be a good video on the Jews of the Arabian peninsula/Yemen. And also false messiahs throughout Jewish history from before Jesus to contemporary to him and after there have been many in almost every diasporic community from shabtai Tzvi to people in Yemen and elsewhere in between
in the ww1 video are you going to mention the 77th division?
Maybe, though I hadn't thought of it specifically. The Hundred Days will however get its own episode and I think you know why.
20:33 Shouldn't "Merkaz Ruhani" (which Mizrahi is an acronym of) be translated as "Spiritual Center" rather than "Religious Center"?
It should, but "Religious Centre" is usually the English translation in contemporary media. Why yes, I have been reading 1930s election reports from the JTA.
Ahuzat Bayit or house estate was the first name given to Tell Aviv
And it's currently neighboring, among others, Herzlia and Ramat Gan (lit. Garden Heights), the two rejected names... (the latter due to being a “garden city“)
Since you're using the video as your “heritage project“, here's a little snippet from mine:
20:49 Meir Dizengoff's sister was my great grandfather's first wife, and both she and her only child were two of the people killed in the Kishinev pogroms. Consequently, this means I have no relation to Dizengoff, but perhaps in an alternate universe...
Oh, I don't have any particularly close relatives in this one. Golda Meir comes closest, her neice/ward Rochelle Lehrer being my mom's neighbor as a child. I guess there's an implied family connection via my great-grandfather being involved in Poalei Zion Cleveland.
@@SamAronow I meant the series in general, not this episode in particular...
Of course they won't appear here, Yosel and Basya are at that time period in Chicago...
True. But I think you've got it the other way around. I'm not using the series to talk about my family, I'm using my family as an example to talk about how these events were experienced by ordinary people.
Two book recommendations for anyone who wants to understand Theodore Herzl.
1)"The Labyrinth of Exile" by Ernst Pawel
2)"Theodore Herzl. From Assimilation to Zionism" by Jacques Kornberg
Even though I'm not Jewish but Greek, i admire Theodore Herzl and in generally those first generations of Zionists. They had a purpose and they dedicated their lifes to it.
Hi will you do a spiecal on lybian jews? or jews of north africa in general ?
I can't make any promises, but I'm very deliberately saving Morocco for a really big video when I get to World War II.
The series will go until your birth?
You underestimate how old I am. Technically speaking, I've lived through more than 1% of Jewish history. And there's a lot of stuff from that period that's worth covering. That said, I'll stop when I don't want to do it anymore and can afford to start something new.

This is not my native accent, but rather the accent of someone who wanted to be taken seriously in mass media and then lived in a non-Anglophone country for six years.
@@SamAronow ah, I’m surprised, the way you sound I thought you were a native from Brooklyn, you sound just like my Jewish family accent wise lol.

A world where Israel never needed to point so many guns outward...it was a nice dream.
Maybe a dream with the future but...not now, not soon
