Moshe Feiglin: Israel’s Aid to Jewish Houston Historic

Israel’s cabinet unanimously voted today to accept Minister Nafatali Bennett’s proposal and to send $1 million dollars of aid to the Jewish community in Houston.

I applaud Minister Bennett and the cabinet. The economic significance of this decision is strictly symbolic. But its significance is historic.

The State of Israel is a Jewish State, the state of all the Jews. When the direction of the aid turns around – from the Land of Israel to the Diaspora, and not vice versa – it is a huge, supreme message to every Jew, wherever he may be.
