The Ettinger Report - Jewish Education is the key to national security


In a fascinating column Yoram Ettinger discusses 

Israel’s 2023 key national security challenge

He writes: 
*Israel’s primary national security challenge is the reinforcement of education on the 4,000-year-old Jewish/Zionist roots in the Land of Israel, through the bolstering of the Jewish/Zionist identity (self-determination), vision (the reestablishment of the Jewish State in its Homeland) and destiny (the Jewish Ingathering/Aliyah to the Land of Israel).
Jewish education is the cornerstone of Jewish survival in the Diaspora and in Israel - it has been and always will be.  Add to that an understanding of Zionism and the two become a powerful combination.

I recommend reading the column here.

Would love to know if you agree or disagree.
