"Attachment to our people, the love of Israel, the understanding and feeling for Jews everywhere are the well-springs of our strength."
- Prof. Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel
The Office of the Vice Chairman chooses to promote the idea of "Jewish Peoplehood" in its activity and to emphasize the importance of the connection and relations between Israel and the Diaspora in view of the wide diversity of the Jewish people and out of mutual respect between the Jews who choose to live in Israel and our brothers and sisters who choose to live in the Jewish communities in the Diaspora. Our goal is to inspire love, respect and affection for the State of Israel and Zionism and to inspire the same degree of love, respect and affection for Diaspora Jews wherever they are.
