Ortal Flaumenhaft

Mickey Flaumenhaft, Director of Development at American Friends of Migdal Ohr and reservist in Gaza, teams up with his wife Ortal, a teacher for Bnei Akiva UK, to discuss their Jewish journey across three countries. They share insights on what factors guide decisions to leave Israel and how Judaism infuses daily life in Israeli culture. The couple reflects on the American Jewish community's bond with Israel since recent events and examines the emotional complexities of maintaining Jewish identity while living abroad.
