Dear Friends,
The 2nd Sovereignty Youth , which took place last night at Bar-Ilan university was exhilarating and energized hundreds of youth to join the movement and the action, which was the main goal of the evening.
Hundreds and hundreds of wonderful committed youth aged 16 to 23 streamed to the hall with 13 buses that we ordered coming from Kiryat Gat- Sderot -Katsrin -Ashkelon-Herzliya-Tel Aviv- Haifa-Jerusalem-Kedumim-Ariel- Gush Etsion-Beersheva- Yerucham-Hadera-Kiryat Arba Hevron- Kiryat Malachi-Sderot and more.
They were not passive listeners but rather took active part in the discussions, registered to join the movement, signed the Sovereignty Charter, and committed to continue to join the activities to promote Sovereignty. They listened to all the fascinating speakers and debates: Dep. Minister Tsippy Hotobely, MK Betsalel Smotrich,
MK Yoav Kish, Human rights activist Bassam Eid, Orit Struck, MK Idit Stilman, Rabbi Louis and ended with a moving energy-talk and blessings by Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu.
The youth received Sovereignty T-shirst, bracelets, a Sovereignty hasbara kit and magnets with contact numbers.
It was a real show of strength and love for Eretz Yisrael proving once again that Zionism is alive and kicking.
Journalists were there in full force and wrote about the conference in Haarets, Ynet, Yisrael Hayom , Maariv, Jerusalem Post, Yediot and of course Arutz 7 and other rightwing sites.
We also streamed it live on our Sovereignty Movement facebook page and so did Josh Hasten, Avi Abelow and Gedalya Blum.
We are now gathering all the links to the different reports, choosing the good photos and waiting to get the video of it all- that will take a little while and will send it when ready-
but meanwhile you can enjoy the attached pictures and the Arutz 7 report:
