    I am so proud of the man he has become...his strength and conviction, bravery and determination are honorable and distinguishing in one so young! I am proud to have been one of his teachers during grade school.Ze'ev is quite a man, today!

    I admire you Zeeve, you have a good heart and God loves you for your compassion for Israel. Someday He will reward you. I remember Joshua at a very young age, tried defending Israel against the enemies and God has always given him victory. Joshua 1:9 " Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage, be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed, for the Lord thy God is with thee where ever you go ".

    I admire you and all of the members of the IDF so very, very much. To me, the soldiers of the IDF are the "canary in the coalmine" for the rest of the world and I hope you do not misunderstand that saying. I come from mining families in Northumberland, UK, and believe you me - many, many of us admire all of you and are very thankful for what you do even though you never often receive thanks from Western "democracies". Stay strong for all of us. I have supported your organisation today and will continue support whenever I am able. May I say, "Shalom".

    I had planned to go to the Israeli Army but didn't have the money to stay there for the period prior to my draft date, I had planned to go into Totchanim or Tzanchanim. I joined the U.S Navy instead. It's a big regret of mine. I went to Israel in January and am counting the days until I can go back for good. Living in exile is an absolute hell.
