Yehudah ben Hadasah Hinde Malkah
One of the laws that we find in the Talmud is that one cannot forgo an inheritance in Eretz Israel - the heir must accept it and be responsible for it. The land can only be sold until the next Jubilee year. According to the Talmud, the daughters of Tzelofchad were wise and learned women. They knew this Halacha and therefore came to Moshe demanding that he observe it. They truly acted "le-shem Shamayim" in order to receive their inheritance in Eretz Israel, to the extent that they were willing to restrict their freedom to marry outside of their tribe.
As a result of their request, God set forth the laws of the inheritance of the land and dictated them to Moshe Rabbenu. These laws conclude with the defining statement of their importance: "And it shall be for the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the Lord commanded to Moshe" (Bamidbar 27:11).
What more important message can there be for our time! We who live in a time when Eretz Israel has been restored to Jewish hands - dare we violate the Halacha of foregoing our inheritance?
Here and now is the time for every Jew to make Aliya and for every Jew who lives in Eretz Israel to make certain that Eretz Israel remains in our possession as the "inheitance of our people."

Hosha'ana Rabba FLYDUBAI & HOSHANA RABBA- ANI VAHU HOSHIA NA- I & HIM SAVE US
"Ani vaHu Hoshia Na", "I and Him, Save Us". We don't just pray to Him, but we also pray to and for ourselves that we should emulate and educate our children to have that instinctive altruism with which He created the world. President Trump seemed amused about Yaniv Hayon, our PLUMBER who confidently worked with G-d like Superman (he learned from a pilot on a TV show!) to save 174 lives on the Dubai hijacking, but we in Israel are totally accustomed already 78 years to our plumbers, teachers, garbage-men, rabbis, farmers & doctors being Hashem's shlichim! This is what Zionism is about.
