If you will it, it is no dream | Shorashim - Israel with Israelis

If you will it, it is no dream

By Hannah Gorman

March 19th, 2016:  We spent the entire day in the beautiful city of Tel Aviv! We learned all about the city's history at Independence Hall and how Israel became a state thanks to Theordore Herzl. Our group was inspired by the quote: "If you will it, it is no dream" - Theodore Herzl

We also learned about the tragedy Israel experienced nearly 20 years ago when they lost their great Prime Minister, Yitzhak Rabin. He spoke of great peace and love between the Israeli people and Palestinian people. This is still a very hard topic for the Israeli people to talk about because he was not only favored by many, but he was also murdered by one of our own. 

Later that night, we enjoyed a fun night out in the city of Tel Aviv and bonded as a group!
