As the state of Israel is celebrating its 75th anniversary, we embark on a journey through the shared story of American Jews and Israel: A relationship that moved from indifference into a love affair, survived moments of disenchantment and anger, saw episodes of cooperation and bitter competition, only to stand now at a historic crossroad. The story of how American Jews became part of Israeli history, and how Israel became a part of Jewish identity.
