I mean, I'm tormented by this. This is
probably the primary element of torment
in my life is that I'm seeing this, you
know, horsedrawn carriage with my family
that I love heading towards the edge of
a cliff and I'm screaming, "No, stop,
stop." And they're just eating and
drinking as they're headed towards the
edge of a cliff. That's what I see
happening to diaspora jewelry. And I'm
just It is so painful to be able to see
it. You know the prophet Jeremiah, the
book of lamentations of Aha was written
before the whole tragedy happened.
Imagine walking around as Jeremiah with
this burning heaviness in your heart
knowing what is to come and not being
able to do anything about it. And so I
think we need to really blow the
chauffar. Call the nation of Israel back
home. This is what I'm saying to them.
I'm like, you don't need to take my word
for it. All I'm saying to do sell your
house now, put it on the market now, buy
a place in Israel with that money and
then rent. You can rent in Boston or New
York or Miami or LA. You could rent
there. But when you're not so heavily
tethered there with everything you have,
perhaps you will be able to have more
sober, dispassionate, clear thinking
when the time comes. Because who knows
how long you're going to really have to
pick up and move before the gates shut.
