  • Happy birthday Israel!

    Israel is a democratic oasis in the Arabian dictatorial Sahara.

    Long Live Israel!

    P.S I am EGYPTIAN, in Egypt bribe, corruption and favoritism r everything,

    but Israel is a goood example for freedom and democracy, which r absent in the despotic, Fascist, Nazi Islamic World.

    Viva Israel!

    Hag Samikh!

  • Wow! Thank you very much for your kind words about Israel.

  • Thank G-d they know the words and are allowed to sing this inspirational song. 70 years ago, they would be shot. Mazel Tov

  • Yes, this sentiment was not lost on us - the guests from the University of Michigan. Some of the Jewish students singing Hatikvah in the video did not even know they were Jewish during their first years of life.

  • This song is one of Hope. I have lost someone very special to me lately. I hear this, and I realize God has sent me a sign...not a warning but a gift. You are gifted by God.

    Thank you for showing me the Hope I needed.

    Blessed be!

    Long live Israel!

  • fucking bolsheviks JEWS !..they destroyed Ukraine !!

  • @OrthodoxLion my friend they are fake jews, these are Khazar , just converts into judaism in the 8th century.

  • fucking jews, they destroyed russia and ucraine, now they are back! Cockroaches!

  • @NATEandtheMONKEY pardon me for putting "the" ukraine. didn't know it was a faux pas

  • I didn't think there were any jews left in the ukraine.

    my grandfather" father on my moms side is from odessa.

  • Please use the Ukrainian spelling of Kharkiv instead of the Russified version you use. By the way, for future reference, it's Kyiv and Lviv. Also, for a poster below it's Ukraine, not "the" Ukraine, as Russians spell it demeaning the country.

  • AM YISRAEL CHAI.

  • fuck you all bastard

  • HaTikva is not meant as a warrior hymn. It means "The Hope" and is an expression of a dream--a dream of peace and freedom in our land. We have become warriors again because we had to--it was either fight or swim, and there wasn't a friendly landing spot within swimming distance. So let the Turks fight with the Greeks, we want Shalom, We want peace.
