YESHA was built on Rand's ideology. Israel is superior because Israel has industry. Israel could't do its sums. Israel doesn't have the population to pull YESHA off. Rand is dead. Begin is dead. YESHa is dying.
Ayn Rand was an atheist and yet she fiercely and passionately defends Israel on rational and moral grounds. So the big question is why are we Jews (a purportedly intelligent people) incapable of presenting our case effectively to secularists?
American born, my wife and I moved to Israel in 1970. We have lived at Shiloh together with our family since 1981. I was in the Betar youth movement in the US and UK. I have worked as a political aide to Members of Knesset and a Minister during 1981-1994, lectured at the Academy for National Studies 1977-1994, was director of Israel's Media Watch 1995-2000 and currently, I work at the Menachem Begin Heritage Center in Jerusalem. I was a guest media columnist on media affairs for The Jerusalem Post, op-ed contributor to various journals and for six years had a weekly media show on Arutz 7 radio. I serve as an unofficial spokesperson for the Jewish Communities in Judea & Samaria.
