Amazing stuff! Israel is perhaps one of the most diverse countries in world as far as its population is concerned due to e.g. the diaspora! It represents a true United Nations within one country! An extraordinary melting pot ("Ingathering of the Exiles" (קיבוץ גלויות))!
Recently, I have blogged here and here about the former prime minister of Israel, Golda Meir. She was born in Russia, raised in the United States, before she migrated to Israel.
