Happy 60th Birthday, Israel!

ADVERTISEMENTS

Sadly, I wasn't able to make it to this year's celebrations in Israel for today's 60th Birthday, but I wanted to wish a "Yom Huledet Sameach" to all our Israeli readers and writers. After the jump, I've posted some links care of the AJC, the human rights and advocacy organization.

In addition to the links below, the Times has had some good coverage. Here's a link to Ethan Bronner's story the other day of the unfinished and complex journey to equality for Israel's Arab citizens.

The Miracle, a new video dedicated to Israel's birthday and AJC's deep ties to the Jewish state, is now available. VIEW. Today's Wall Street Journal carries a full-page ad celebrating how Israel benefits the world. VIEW AD. (I confess this ad is not exactly how I would pitch Israel's contributions, but its scientific and engineering triumphs are worthy of praise.) Israel at 60: The Road to Independence explores Israel's miraculous, and UN-recommended, founding. DOWNLOAD. Eran Lerman, director of AJC's Israel/Middle East Office, showcases Israel's 60 years of success despite regional challenges. READ BRIEFING. AJC's Jacob Blaustein Institute publication, Mandate of Destiny, presents a documentary record of how the partition of Mandate Palestine was studied, debated and decided by diplomats working in the UN framework.
