Each of us [in Israel] has family, friends, colleagues, and army buddies. Do the names of your friends and acquaintances come to mind? Perfect! Invite them to a meeting. It can take place in your living room, in a park, or in a club, it doesn’t matter where. Sit in a circle and start to talk about the relationships between you. Talk about how to preserve the unity of the people, how to strengthen it, to maximize it, and how to keep it at the boiling point.

Talk about how to open the hearts of each other, about how we, all the participants of this conversation, are tightly connected with each other. Yes, talk about what will happens if we can become really close to each other.

During the conversation you need to remember one important rule: everyone complements each other. We do not argue, do not interrupt, and do not change the subject. There is no participant who is more important or less important. Everyone is equal and equally important.

Has one of us started talking? Wonderful! After he has finished, the next one starts talking, followed by the next, and so on around the circle. By doing this, you naturally feel warmth, safety, and strength. This is the strength of our unity, the basis on which we were born as a nation [Israel].

If we create circular connections between us, similar to circular connections in nature, we will feel a great inner strength. And it is this force that will create a healthy atmosphere in society, thanks to which peace, tranquility, and success will naturally come to us.

Would you like to check that it is not fantasy? Do you want to experience this force of unity? Take part in one of the circles that we hold throughout the country, or just invite us to your place, and we will gladly come.

This war in Gaza is the first ideological war, in its pure form, in the modern history of Israel. By all indicators, we are thousands of times stronger than the Hamas terrorists, but winning today is not with weapons but an idea.

First of all, the one who has an idea wins, and secondly, he whose idea is stronger wins.

The Hamas idea is simple and clear. What they want is to conquer Israel.

In 2005, Israel withdrew its troops and evacuated its settlements from Gaza. Thus, we freed them from our presence. Now, Hamas has nothing to liberate, except one – it is the turn to liberate Israel from Jews.

Therefore, they fire rockets at us, crawl through tunnels, and attack us with knives on the streets. They do not put forward any demands; they want nothing from us. They just do not want us. They raise their children with this idea. For the sake of this idea, they are ready to die and to kill anyone who will interfere with it.

We are all as one ready to fight and die for our country, but the army cannot defeat this idea. The idea can be defeated only by another idea.

Everything is clear with Hamas: they are united by the idea of the destruction of Israel. With what can oppose this? What idea do we have?

Question: Why is Israel, with all its military superiority, losing the war?

Answer: Today is not the government and the state that rules everything but public opinion, not only the public opinion in the country, but also the world public opinion towards different countries.

In this case it doesn’t matter who has the “Iron Dome” and who will win the war. The war is won by the one who can control public opinion both at home and abroad.

In order for us to organize the correct public opinion in the world, we need to justify our actions. We can justify our actions only if we tell the whole world why we strive to live here in Israel, why we are needed here, why living precisely in Israel we benefit the world.

And to justify their actions, we can only if we tell the world about why we strive to live here in Israel, why do we need here, why living in Israel we benefit the world.

This is what we need to do, meaning that we have to explain who we are, what our function in the world is, and how our struggle for our independence is going to help the world, that is, to bring the world to the corrected state.

The war in Gaza united us by one disaster, and today we are already different. Israel today is different. We all strive for mutual assistance; we open our arms towards each other; we feel that it is our children there, in Gaza.

Although we are not bound by ties of kinship with them, we are connected by other ties: a common destiny, care, and love. And there is an opportunity to strengthen this, to maximize it until real unity is reached.

How can we accomplish this? Kabbalah answers this question.

For many years, for centuries, Kabbalah was hidden in anticipation of exactly this moment when, finally, people would ask: How do we come to unity? And this question would not be asked out of curiosity.

It will be urgent, will come from the heart, from a huge desire. Then, what was written in Kabbalah many centuries ago will be heard: how, rising above egoism, to come to unity not by force, but easily and in joy.

Today, this moment has come. We already understand that we cannot escape, that we have a responsibility to our children, to the people, to the whole world.

We must become one people and pass this unity to the world. Then there will be peace and true happiness. Because the law that was revealed by Abraham, supported by our people, will be with us: the supreme law of love.

Question: Recently, anti-Semitism has grown in the entire world, but the impression is that there is a more serious problem with Jews who are against the Jews and against Israel, not just anti-Semites who are opposed to the Jews.

Answer: The Jews have no other problem but to recognize their mission and their role in the world, which they must realize in our days as the wisdom of Kabbalah says. In general, the entire crisis in the world is a problem where the Jewish people do not perform their duty to bring Light to the nations of the world by uniting with each other.

In essence, the inner problem of Israel is turning into a common problem of the entire world.

I have met many famous people who are obvious anti-Semites, and we even came to a certain understanding. After all, we seemingly have a common direction, although they did not understand the depth of the problem, but they subconsciously recognized that the Jews have a special, higher, universal, cosmic force. The problem is that this force is negative, not positive.

Currently, this force is revealed as negative, but you can reverse it and turn it into positive. So, I tell anti-Semites that I recognize the validity of their claims to the Jews and Israel. They are amazed that I agree with them, but I explain to them how the entire system is built and what really needs to be done.

It is rather easy to explain this to anti-Semites and come to an understanding, but it is more difficult to bring this to the Jews themselves. It is known that our people are called “stiff-necked,” in other words, very stubborn and do not want to hear anything. The Jews want to be the same as the other nations of the world, to be like everyone else. They want to hide among other nations, but they cannot do this and will never succeed in doing this!

Indeed, according to the general process that humanity and all of creation is going through, the Jews must unite with each other and set an example to the entire world as “a Light to the nations of the world.” Then, through us, the Light, the positive force, will begin to flow to all the nations of the world who will feel that the Jews who used to be the source of negative energy now have become the source of positive energy.

When I explain this to the people of the world, they agree with me, but when I say this to Jews, they refuse to listen because it makes them responsible. It is easier for the nations of the world. It does not oblige them. In fact, they are willing to invest their strength in that: to work and support. It is not for nothing that it is written in the prophets that the nations of the world will take the children of Israel on their shoulders and bring them to Jerusalem.

They are ready to help us, but, for the time being, they are helping in a negative way, pushing us through wars and anti-Semitic demonstrations. In this form, they will force us to think about our fate, our destiny, and our mission.

In the future, these forces will be manifested more strongly. Just as once Nazi Germany established special laws for the Jews, it will be so all over the world. Indeed, the prophets write that, if the people of Israel do not return to the state of being one man with one heart in time, then all the nations of the world will rise up against Israel and bring a war with them from the sea, from the land, and from the air.

So, we should not wait for anything good. No help will come because everyone, down to the smallest country, will be against Israel. If we unite, we will win by the force of our unity. Once we begin to unite, the force of unity will flow through us to the nations of the world, and they will stop fighting.

It turns out that the nations of the world must put pressure on Israel until the last moment, almost destroying it, and if, at that moment, the Jews become united, then all the nations will be recharged from us, get fulfillment, and immediately will cease fighting.

Question: The Jewish people have been through horrible trials throughout history such as the inquisition and the Holocaust. And because of this, we have the constant feeling that we will always be hated no matter what. At the same time there is the feeling that no one can defeat us and that we can go on like this for ages. How can we break down this wall of stubbornness and pride?

Answer: In the past, the Jewish people always managed to come out of the clutches of the pressure they were under. If it became dangerous in one country, they could always hide in another where they would succeed.

That’s the way it always was. But today we find ourselves in a general global crisis, when the whole world is connected globally, and so the whole world will be against the Jews as one, and there will be nowhere to hide. We have nowhere to escape to. We will feel that we are cornered and have no choice but to beg the Creator for help.

Comment: But we are living in our own state, in the state of Israel, and we have a strong army. So people don’t feel that there is no way out. The Jews have gotten used to the fact that we are hated and that we will always be hated, and so we don’t intend to change in any way.

Answer: People don’t understand that we are in a special time, in a special phase of evolution that brings us to increasingly greater unity of all the parts of creation. The whole world feels that it is connected in one bowl, and in this situation, the Israeli nation is in a very difficult position.

We could be saved when someone needed us and we moved from one place to another and thus received financial support from the authorities. We succeeded in finding a place that was more or less free of anti-Semitism.

But the modern world has become round, and we will not be able to find a quiet place anymore. On the whole, the whole process is arranged so as to drive the Jews into a corner.

Comment: When the Jews were expelled from Spain some of them fled to Turkey and the Turkish sultan then said how stupid the Spanish king was for expelling his most precious asset. Turkey accepted the Jews gladly since it understood that they gained, but today the Turks are accusing the Jews and demanding the Turkish Jew’s to condemn Israel’s actions.

Answer: It is now clear to everyone that there is nowhere to hide and it is time to fulfill our mission.

Do we live in an aspiration for unity? Does love unite us there?

No, and that’s why we experience all our troubles. It does not matter that the external complaints of the world against us are different. There is one demand behind all the accusations: our happiness is in your hands. Do what you need to do or disappear because if you don’t, then nobody needs you.

Today, this demand sounds louder than ever.

We are tired. The world is tired. Crises, wars, diseases, and environmental disasters have battered the Earth so much that the groaning is everywhere.

This demand is to us: to the people of Israel. Become one people. Show the world that this is the only way to live.

And as soon as we start to approach the realization of this idea, as soon as we take the first step and direct our thoughts towards Oneness, as soon as we decide, finally, that we cannot survive in any other way; we will immediately see the attitude towards us change, as the world stands waiting for a miracle. And our worst enemies will retreat. Our Oneness will defeat them. It will give strength to our army.

We will win without casualties; just understand this! Our children will not be killed! By our unity, we will create an impenetrable dome around them, around our army, around the whole of Israel. We will radiate such confidence, such happiness that everyone will want to live like this.

The whole world!

Why?! Because by doing so we will get closer to the Law of Unity, which runs the world. The Law of Love. And it will help us.

So, will we hear this time?

Dear Friends,

I decided to address you in these difficult days because I feel that now we have a real opportunity to not only stop the war, but also to prevent all future wars.

That feeling of unity that has awakened in our nation today has deep roots. Our nation gathered around unity. It carried unity throughout its history. Precisely unity has allowed it to survive the most difficult times and return to its homeland.

And today, when there is a sense that the war is at its end, the spirit of unity among the people is beginning to wane. Right now, we need to do everything possible to hold and strengthen it.

Only unity can create a real dome of security around our country and draw respect from the entire world. Only unity will give us the long-awaited peace and confidence in the future.

The future of our children depends on our decision to unite.

I embrace you all.

With respect,

Dr. Michael Laitman,

President of the International Kabbalah Academy.

We have tried to run away from this our essence for two thousand years. For two thousand years hatred was on our heels. We were hated by nations, we lived within, who surrounded us, and even those who had never seen us.

Why?!

The answer is obvious, in any case, to us who write these lines. The more we moved away from our origins, the worse we lived and the more we are hated.

The world subconsciously knew that happiness is not in money, not in palaces, not in new technologies. No! Happiness is in the connection between people, happiness is in Unity. Because that is the Supreme Law.

3800 years ago, our nation began to build its life in accordance with the idea of Unity and Love. To be as “one man with one heart” – is written in the Torah, the main book of our people. To live in mutual love, when everyone is responsible for everyone else.

So live!

So live by it and one pass this secret of happiness to the world.

Just before the decision to enter Gaza, Hamas posted a song on the Internet; already countless parodies of the song have appeared in Israel. While this song is primitive and absurd, one should pay attention to one of the lines: “Zionists’ hearts are divided and separated. Everyone pulls in a different direction…”

Oh, no wonder Hamas wrote these lines! It’s not in vain that they praise discord within our nation. They feel that it is our weak spot. That they have to hit there!

They see that we are divided by parties, leaders, right, left, separated into Russians and Israelis, rich and poor, on departing and remaining … We are divided!

And when we are apart at least a centimeter, millimeter, micron, they can lay explosives in this gap and explode, turning the gap into a huge hole. And now our children are forced to fight just because there is discord between us.

“What nonsense is this?” “What’s the connection?” – You would ask.

Well, here is the answer. We will refer to history.
