The portions of the Torah read in most synagogues during the last two weeks included the hardening of Pharaoh's heart and its disastrous consequences for Egypt. In contrast there have been many recent heartening and enheartening events and activities in Israel which are strengthening the nation and benefiting the world.

Medical news includes the US launch of a unique Israeli respiratory system to boost the heart's function of oxygenating the blood in life-support patients. Read how Israeli charity Belev Echad ("One Heart") helps rehabilitate wounded IDF soldiers. The AI system of Israeli emergency NGO United Hatzalah sent its EMTs to a shopping mall to treat a heart attack patient that it had predicted would need saving. And it certainly was a heart-stopping moment when an El Al passenger had a heart attack and was saved thanks to the Head of Hadassah hospital being on the flight.

There have been many enheartening stories in the last week, not least that of released hostages being reunited with their loved ones. The sight of Israeli SmartAID volunteers restoring power to dialysis patients in Los Angeles. New housing for Israeli lone soldiers. Free scholarships for ex-hostages at Israeli Universities. And the Swedish Member of the European Parliament who fights anti-Zionism. 

Finally, thanks to the generous hearts of Australians who made cases for mezuzahs that will be fixed to the doors of residents of Israel returning to their rebuilt homes. And we hope that the heart of 101-year-old Walter Bingham, the world's oldest journalist, will keep beating until he reaches 120.

It has been a heartwarming week, seeing seven captive Israeli "flowers" running into the arms of their ecstatic families, stating that they have been "born again". There has also been a religious flowering within many of the families of the hostages and among many previously secular IDF soldiers. The return of foreign workers to Israel has triggered an agricultural "flowering" in farms and kibbutzim. In the revitalized Israeli north, a new Strauss factory will produce milk products from plants, while Israel's Plantopia has switched from lettuce to sprouted oats for its source of milk proteins. In the medical arena, many immobile patients are flowering again, thanks to an Israeli startup that is opening up blocked blood vessels; while other Israeli startups have been restoring health to sufferers of strokes and rheumatoid arthritis. Israel's economy has certainly been flowering again, fueled by its technology ecosystem and investor confidence. And in the sunshine, the almond trees are in full flower a full three weeks before Tu Bishvat - the Jewish New Year for Trees. Finally, Yuval Raphael survived the Oct 7 Nova music festival and will flower again when she represents Israel at the next Eurovision Song Contest. The photo is of my orchid in full bloom again in the winter sunshine.  We pray that most of the remaining hostages are still alive and will soon flower again in the Israeli sunshine.

Golda Meir -- I was one of the two El Al 747 pilots when Golda flew to Washington to meet with Nixon after the Yom Kippur war in 1973. She and her team were on the upper deck, which was closed to other passengers who had no idea Golda was on board.

They also didn't know that this was no ordinary El Al TLV-JFK flight. We actually were going to land in DC first, deplane Golda and her team, then take off for New York.

At one point during the flight Golda came to the cockpit to say hello, which she did in her inimitable way. Holding her purse down by her side, she said, in English (someone must have tipped her off that I was American, though by then I spoke perfect Hebrew) "Hello boys, and thank you." "Thank YOU, Golda," the cockpit crew replied in unison.

Toward the end of the flight we announced to the passengers that Golda was on board and that we were going to land in Washington for a bit before heading on to New York. According to the cabin crew the passengers let out a rousing cheer and not one complained.

It was one of the great honors of my aviation career.
