According to The Muqata News Agency (fancy term but well deserved for one of the fastest, most accurate news reporting groups around), “the government of Yemen has declared that all Jews remaining there must convert to Islam or be expelled. There are about 180 Jews still living there.”

So first, this likely means another airlift…the last for Yemen’s Jews…in Israel, there are tens of thousands of Yemenite Jews living, thriving here. It’s time for the last 180 to come home. A bigger question will be for the Jewish holy sites – the synagogues and cemeteries. I doubt we can bring this all to Israel, yet who will guarantee the safety of these places?

I want to say that I expect the world to scream out in anger. Forced conversion? What are we…back in the days of the Inquisition? The Crusades? And yet, clearly such barbaric tendencies still exist.

I want to demand that the United States worry about these 180 lives…

I want the United Nations to stop the world and rescue these people…my people.

But in the end, somehow, some way, Israel will get them. I believe that with complete faith. There must be a plan somewhere, Bibi…bring them home. Bring them to safety.

Once, long ago, Israel flew planes to Yemen and told the Jews to get onboard. Many of them had never seen planes and so their rabbis told them – on the wings of eagles, God will rescue you…these are the eagles…

Please Bibi…please God, let the eagles fly. Bring. Them. Home.
