As Israel turns 65, we recall those soldiers and civilians who died in the name of the State of Israel. We also celebrate everything this remarkable country has accomplished in a relatively short amount of time.
On this Patriot’s Day, let us also pray for the people of Boston and the victims of terrible violence at the Marathon. On this convergence of Israel’s Memorial Day and Independence Day together with America’s Patriot’s Day, let us not forget the blessings of liberty nor those who have sacrificed their lives in the name of liberty.
