On the brink...

This afternoon I stood with 225 olim--American Jews who've committed to making aliyah and to living in the state of Israel--as they attended an emotional farewell/welcome ceremony at JFK airport just before the flight. Families and friends came to say "l'hitraot," and there were happy tears. Watch the olim (and me) live at 12:30 am New York time on Tuesday morning as they are welcomed to Israel.
We're boarding. More soon.
