Among the other articles in newspaper, as usual on politics and advertising, drew the attention article of Arje Barats. The author reflects on the "eternal" Jewish question: who we are and what our place and our role in relation to other peoples. As is known, the Torah says of the specific situation of Jews among the peoples of the world, the Torah and the commandments says of the special Jewish
mission - not hiding and hide, but to throw light and influence, serve as a positive example to other peoples of Earth. At the same time, Jews and other peoples are single organic whole. The author notes that if Israel can not cope with its historic mission, then begins big suffer off all humanity. As proof, he said that the splash of international terrorism was prompted by Israel''s capitulation in front of Islamic terror - had signing the Norwegian agreement. He warned against attempts to take the Jews (Israel) only eternal spiritual reality. This claims other religions too, but unlike them Israel is penetrated into ideas to be selected and separated. In Judaism it is important to first division between Israel and the world. But, according to the author of the article, the last in the world unity can be achieved as a turning of the world to Israel or Israel''s disappearance. In any case, Israel and the peoples of the world are missioned to a single
community, where people not should be brought to the uniform of Jewish life, but reveal the sacred meaning of non-Jewish existence.
