[Denver Rocky Mountain News] John Temple - The land of Israel that I found on a spring break visit this year was bursting with energy, in the midst of a boom. The people of Israel are an economic force on a global stage. I returned home with great admiration for the energy and intensity of the people, for the feeling abroad in the land that, despite their differences, they are all in it together. There's a love of life, a passion for living, that's unforgettable. As Israel approaches its 60th birthday in May, I am filled with the feeling that something special is still taking place in this sliver of a nation, something worth appreciating and supporting.
