Display It Proudly!

I

srael needs us, but make no mistake about it:
We, as American Jews, need Israel. And we
should be proud to tell that to the world.
To help you demonstrate your support of the
Jewish state, we've included in the center spread a
full-color picture of the Israeli flag suitable for
display in your home, business, school or another
prominent place.
Please let others know of the flag's availability
and urge them to display it, too.

Shabbat shalom!
