Malkah Gittel -9 months ago
Several years ago, Ernest Gold wrote a song which accompanied the movie "Exodus".
It's the song of the Jewish soul:
This land is mine, God gave this land to me
This brave and ancient land to me
And when the morning sun reveals her hills and plain
Then I see a land where children can run free
So take my hand and walk this land with me
And walk this lovely land with me
Though I am just a man, when you are by my side
With the help of God, I know I can be strong
Though I am just a man, when you are by my side
With the help of God, I know I can be strong
To make this land our home
If I must fight, I'll fight to make this land our own
Until I die, this land is mine

Its OUR EFFORT too
It says that the third temple would be achieved by our efforts and HaShem's **together.** Our desire, our effort will make the difference.
We are not angles that have no free will. We need to desire... We need our Hishtadlut. If G-d did not desire a Jewish state, , it would not be... We should believe that it is for our benefit and a step towards the redemption b"h. May it happen today.

Why don't we use it ? Because it simply is not true !
השם נתן , השם לקח , יהי שם השם מבורך
The same G-d that gave us the land sent us away from there close to 2000 years ago untill further notice. It is not our's, it was and will always be up to the Will of it's Creator to to grant it to whoever He wants.
Where does one take the gutts to create a jewish goverment on the land of Israel before Moschiach comes ?

1) Based on your logic, Hashem gave it back to the Jewish people by performing such miracles as the war of independence, Six-day war etc.
2) Even if you are correct and we didn't have to establish a State before Moshiach's coming, now that we after the fact, it's our job as a fellow Yid to protect a nation that has millions of Jews which are being targeted for the crime of being Jewish. If we were Muslims no one would have an issue with us establishing a state there.

where does it say that its not ours untill hashem brings us back???
it seems you forgot some basic psukim in the torah!!!
i highly recommend you to look in to sefer braishis, and see how many psukim say clearly the opposite of what you're thinking/writing!!!
what we see taht many jews think this way, is because we tried to pull away from the seculler zionizsts, and form a notion that the land of israel isn't ours till hashem gives it back.

Music before the video - where can I find it?
Amazing class as always, thank you! Who is singing the music at the beginning? Where can I find/buy it? Most amazing choir.

joke
That first joke is funny, but being a jew is a religion, not a nationality. The other three could also have been Jews as well.
