One of the most uplifting characteristics of summer 2011 in Israel was the realization of the leadership of Israel’s youth. Inspiring! There is no better word to describe how uplifting it was to see our young people take to the streets and demonstrate their leadership in organizing ‘tent city’ protests and demanding greater social and economic justice.
Their organization, supported by their command of the new technologies and new media and augmented by their energy and optimism, swept across the land, and their enthusiasm captured the very spirit of Israel. By far the most impressive and distinguishing attribute of these young leaders is their speaking ability. They are so expressive, so remarkably capable of putting into words their vision for an Israel I would certainly be very proud to be a part of.
