More than 200 brave American and Canadian Jewish families just made the journey of a lifetime. They packed up their lives and moved to Israel right in the middle of a war. These patriots chose courage over comfort when their homeland needed them most.
A charter plane from New York landed at Ben Gurion Airport carrying 225 passengers and endless hope. These families are answering a call that goes back thousands of years. They are proving that real Americans stand with our greatest ally in the Middle East when it matters most.
One passenger called it overwhelming and a dream come true. A Philadelphia doctor said they came to rebuild the land and make history. These are the kind of people who built America great in the first place.
This move is called Aliyah, which means coming home to the Jewish homeland. Over 35,000 Jews have made this same brave choice since the October 7 terrorist attacks. They are voting with their feet for freedom and democracy over terror and hate.
While college campuses in America are filled with anti-Israel protesters, these families show what real courage looks like. They are putting their money where their mouth is. They are choosing to stand with civilization against barbarism.
Israel is fighting the same enemies America faces every day. These new immigrants understand that Israel’s fight is our fight too. They know that a strong Israel means a safer America and a safer world for all freedom-loving people.
The liberal media won’t tell you this story because it doesn’t fit their anti-Israel narrative. But these 225 heroes prove that the Jewish people will never be defeated. They show the world what it means to choose hope over fear.
America should be proud that our citizens are this brave and this committed to our values. These families represent the best of both America and Israel. They remind us why we must always stand with our allies against those who want to destroy freedom everywhere.
