Obviously, quite often during the first stages of aliyah, some of the suffering that helps us acquire our place in the Land of Israel involves a descent in the social and economic status of the new immigrants, and the need to spend most time and energy acclimatizing to their new home. Nonetheless, coming well-prepared, including an in-depth understanding of the political and social situation in Israel, and reinforcing the envoy consciousness of the immigrants will allow us to gain the power to repair the world. Even on the scale of the individual, a new immigrant who reaches this state of consciousness will be released of their sense of detachment and even their immigrant neediness, and will quickly feel much more a participant with equal rights to what is going on in Israel.
Those members of the French Jewish community who have made aliyah are a good example of a high quality public, who have a Zionist consciousness and perhaps even have some of the energies that remain from the French Revolution… if that sector of the public will be wise enough to apply their well-developed sense of criticism and develop authentic Zionism that has a dream of a Jewish State, it will do us a lot of good.
