Moved by Gal Gadot's address in Hollywood to write this poem, I too proudly declare, "I am an Israeli and I am Jewish." It is the greatest privilege I can imagine, and I am the luckiest man on Earth.
Most Countries are rooted in land
be it bountiful, rocky, or arid like sand
Yet Israel is much bigger than her borders
A nation marching to the Almighty’s orders
A people grounded in the precepts of the Holy Book
Given them on Mount Sinai, when the whole world shook
Descended from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob – renamed Israel
A man, a nation, a people forged from the finest material
