Today is the 60th anniversary of the State of Israel, that is to say of the date when David Ben-Gurion made the declaration of an independent state. I mention this because if you believed the press it started to happen ten days ago and indeed scarcely makes the papers today.
I haven’t always agreed with everything Israel has done but what I have liked about it is that it carries on in the face of such resentment, such hatred. It is an example in national courage which I respect and envy.
Happy birthday, Israel.
