Calgary Celebrates Israel @ 60
"I am pleased to invite everyone to Israel for this exciting event. Please join us as together we celebrate the history, legacy and future of the Jewish people and the State of Israel." – Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert The 2008 GA – the third GA to be held in Israel – will help mark Israel's 60th anniversary with a series of high-profile meetings in Jerusalem, inspirational visits to the North and South to see how UJC/Federation-supported work supports the Jewish state, and to Israel's cosmopolitan hub, Tel Aviv.
The Jerusalem events will include appearances by much of Israel's highest political echelons and dignitaries from across Israeli society. Among the political leaders invited are Prime Minister Ehud Olmert; Defense Minister Ehud Barak; Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni, President Shimon Peres and Likud leader Benjamin Netanyahu. UJC will continue to update the federation system with GA news.
