about the number block, the blockchains are considered, there's 23 out of 49 Ken Griffey Jr., Triple Relic, Mariners, oh oh yeah he doesn't, so he doesn't mean blockchain, you're talking about the number block, okay yeah that's two different things here, you're talking about this, you're saying how do we determine which teams end up in this, it's usually just whatever teams are kind of straggling or just left over and then we'll just pull those out from the, from the main pick your team purchasing list and then yeah just add up the price to divided by 10 and then put it into a, into

Hey friends, today we are hanging out at Disney's Hollywood Studios and we are going to be doing the first ever Toy Story Midway Mania charity tournament. I am so excited, there's about 16 different cast members and content creators all coming together for a friendly little tournament style of Toy Story Midway Mania and whoever wins gets to pick the charity that all the money gets donated to. Anywho, let's go do this. It is 9am and it's like the perfect weather right now. It's a little bit sunny out but yet it's still chilly. I know it's probably going to get to the 80s a little bit later on in the afternoon but right now it's in the cool 60s. We're going to head straight back to Toy Story Midway Mania so we can start and I'm excited a little nervous but it's all fun and it's all for charity. That's the best thing. During this we've been hyping it up and we've been like kind of communicating back and forth through each other being like we're going to take that belt. Oh that belt's coming home with me and it's really fun and like I said it's for charity. Each person that is competing donated $50 and the winner of the whole tournament gets to decide what charity all the donations go to and I think it's really fun. I picked Give Kids the World but there's a lot of other amazing charities so I'm rooting on trying to pull for Give Kids the World today. Right here is the total so far for the charity and if you guys actually want to donate to it I'm sure it's going to be open for a little bit but I will put the link for Jason's Venmo in there and that goes straight to Give Kids the World but already looking pretty good. I'm happy. The tournament itself is going to be a March Madness style tournament so an elimination tournament it's going to start off with 16 down to 8 down to the final 4 and then for the championship and I'm excited like this is going to be so much fun. Looks like we're about to head in and go for our first round and it's a 60 minute wait and I'm excited I got to show you guys the belt though because even though all of the money goes to charity

sport are you gonna be my friend yeah oh you got to say hi to him the whole time yes yes it's okay only only petting yep we're actually in like the game yeah that's only the only time we're allowed to pet sport is why we're playing the game Ashley is being so smart with this as you can tell sport has a do not pet sign but she's taking the do not pet sign off so then therefore I'm allowed to pet sport but only during gameplay only during gameplay this is really cool to see a lot of people don't know they have a removable seat so you can actually ride this in your wheelchair or anything that actually fits in there so it comes out and you can just kind of go right on in or they can put the uh seat right back so that you can ride it normally except for this front one doesn't have a backside so it's a little bit uh I guess more comfortable room friendly so it's really interesting that's us all right we're headed in excellent right now you can't see your score it's okay sport oh look and they have the little button on here so for people that uh need to use it you can use it we're going to use the regular pole method though yes we are he's the winner yeah tug on this so meeting agenda make sure everybody has their moving body sport's gonna be my moving body well we're together so it's okay and it's funny because sport barks for his biscuit yes he barny for sport good luck you guys good luck whoo oh we're going yeah that is really jolty hello all right not gonna waste my energy somebody took my best of the day already practice round but we're not going hardcore but I think my best of the day is gone already oh no it's a close one uh oh it's gonna be close look at that what a close score though it was fun and now you're going over to jason jason oh oh oh you got this it's time to take these bad boys off I'm eliminated I'm out but it was so much fun and we're going to continue monitoring to see who is walking away with the belt but say goodbye say goodbye underdog you did come from behind the underdog coming from behind that's the way good job sport good game pa oh yes oh yeah oh yes I am learning so much about toy story mania and I never knew obviously you guys know that there are bonus areas where you can really rack up a lot of points but there's a defensive strategy and some players actually play to make you not get the points and that's really really amazing like I was talking to a lot of the other players and they were basically stealing some of the other players like points and stuff like that like it's really intense and it's something I really wasn't expecting and even when I was playing against Ashley she did not want to unlock any of those bonus levels so she played to her strength and she uh you know I mean made me unlock them while she was getting the points and I just went for it and she won like that was a defensive strategy and I was like wow I'm like that is so amazing like so like I know that uh Jason he actually goes and tries to steal the points on the other person's screen and I'm like wow and that's all in the rules the only rule is is you can't physically interfere but like it's like opened up a whole new level of competition to me like I need to I need to I need to step it up oh my god yep it was 211 I lost 211 to 220 so close who won between you guys oh you won oh he was teaching me my tips so next time I'm playing yeah what was the highest what was your score 247 and we didn't unlock the robot oh we didn't unlock the robot either yeah that is a wrap on round two headed into round three here are your contestants that's half it's not for round three let's go yes so here is the final four right here tattooed his dad with the field advantage run of the event oh boy and you were going up against Ashley and sport we got to take out sport oh no oh oh and then we have the other final four right here you guys ready yeah ready as well ever be oh boy this is going to be good oh those are something that she's competitive great oh boy now we're making our way back to baseline so I can join up with the losers club losers club meet at baseline looks like baseline's the place to be so we're going to get in line we're going all the way back back to the back of the line I think I'm definitely getting myself a pretzel I I've earned a pretzel I also thought about getting the coffee rubbed ribeye steak puff but I can't pass up a good pretzel from baseline can't go wrong with a little pretzel and a Sarvesa cheers cheers yes too good and because I think you started trying to see the hands but I took them out he was trying to steal your hand he was trying to steal my hands not exactly but it was like that was like it was nothing there's a warp in the there's certainly something when I do what did you get dude you like to try pretzel is that just the standard one well I'm good they're awesome no I didn't know they had one are those the standard pretzels I'm a horrible person I'm sorry yeah well that because that the reason why I asked hang on there's a reason that is the large pretzel that that I thought that was the only pretzel they sold and I looked at the top and I was like you say like I know there's no one so that's the so big mine was very dinky I don't know why that is a very tiny pretzel mine was like hanging on the church it's just hanging on well I want to refund yes all right it's time to head out and we're going to make our way down to start the final four and I'm excited because I think I'm going to ride uh actually to ride itself but I'm not going to play the game I'm going to film the final four actually being done so I think it would be interesting to show it from that aspect I'm rooting for you sport sorry Jason because by the properties that you lost to sport yep wins that makes your scores and your your right yep yep the thing is that y'all have played against each other too much we're just so if it ends up being down to the two of you separate cars

score and he came out on top his uh plan of attack one so congrats to him and i hope you enjoyed this video i enjoyed making it we're definitely doing it again next year we'll see you next time bye


Yet in terms of intelligence, it outputs all those strong, expensive machines that we are using. So the question is where does the brain get its power? For the last 13 or 14 years that I've been studying neuroscience, I've read so many books that tell us how the brain works. But what I find is missing is that it tells us that where the power and the vision of the brain come from. Then I came across this book that pretty much answers this question. Because of that, I found that it would benefit the students to introduce a course based on this subject. This course is not limited to theoretical part. Students will learn about some of the most popular techniques that are used in modern neurosciences, including in vivo-electrophysiology and large-scale single cell energy. You will learn how we perform the surgery in the laboratory for acute experiments and also chronic implantations. And you will also learn how to interpret some of the evoked potential signals that we can evoke with electricity or with light for the genetics. In the course, I'm going to explain you about a technique that we use that is called calcium imaging. And for that technique, we have a miniature microscope that is connected on top of the head of the animal. And we can see why the animal is behaving. We can track the activity of the neurons and follow these neurons all the day. So during the course, we are going to study what is the basis of calcium imaging technique and how this can help us to understand how the brain functions. I hope that you join us for this course this November.

As a religious Jew, who do you think I should invest in, you know? I would say outrageous questions to get asked just because you wear a funny hat, you know? So a guy asked me a question, he says, As a religious Jew, do you think it's better to use secular arguments in support of Israel or religious arguments? So I said, well, it really depends on the audience. If you're speaking to a non-Jewish audience, it's probably better to use religious arguments, and if you're speaking to a Jewish audience, it's probably better to use secular arguments. Which I think points at what is one of the most fundamental problems of effective Israel advocacy today. Now, I'm very intimidated to share a platform of such distinguished speakers as here tonight. And I'm not going to embarrass everybody by trying to say Diffritora. But you've already heard, and I've rightly talked about the counter-effectiveness of trying to play down who we are and what we are.  The first thing I want to tell you about effective Israel advocacy is be a Jew.  I was invited once to speak to a group of Norwegian teenagers. Very interesting. I was invited by an Arab tour company in Israel. Just like we will often have a token Arab on our tours. So everyone thinks we're broad minded. They want to have a token Jew. Why was it a token Jew? Norway has a dubious distinction of being the most atheistic country in the world. 78% of the population of Norway do not believe in God. I'm walking about 20 Norwegian teenagers there. I'm pretty sure the only other person in the room believed in God, apart from me, is the Muslim girl wearing the hijab. That's not going to get me very far. But I started off, I said, Sweden. From outside, nobody else is from Sweden, Norway. They're all the same. Hinga, hinga, hinga. All sounds the same, right? Nobel Prize. Oh, they love that. I love being associated with the Nobel Prizes. One is really won the Nobel Prize for Literature. I call shy agnon. In his acceptance speech, it's an amazing story, the story of the acceptance speech, he made the brahha for seeing Malak Nibasavadam, a human king. He made the brahha in front of everybody when he saw the king of Sweden who presented the prize. So shy agnon is an acceptance speech. He said, my name is Shmul Yosef agnon because of the disasters, the historical disasters befell the Jewish people. I was born in one of the cities of the diaspora, but I always saw myself as a citizen of Jerusalem. So I said, that's shy agnon. My name is David Oleska. I was born in a little place, no one's ever heard of, called Harrogate in Britain. But that was only in a dream. In reality, I was born in Jerusalem. I was exiled by the Emperor Titus. I've been in exile for 2,000 years. I've come home, get over it. And they were there. I had them. And the reason why I had them, leaving aside spiritual issues, the reason why I had them was because I had engaged them emotionally. And that's the first practical thing I want to tell you about how to be an effective advocate. Jews love information. We love facts. We love statistics. If we get really excited, we have a PowerPoint presentation. The bad guys don't do that stuff. The bad guys come out and engage your emotions. They tell sob stories, most of which are entirely untrue. I remember being in a debate here in the city with a man called Norman Finchor Steen. I hope none of you have to come across. He is a guy who believes that Israel is worse than Nazi Germany and both his parents are Holocaust survivors, one of those. I debated him here at the University of Toronto years ago. I think there's at least one person in this room who's there at the time. And I can tell you, we kicked his assets. We won. We beat the guy hands down. And I took Acer from some very smart people, including Lake Somart and Gilbert, who was one of the greatest Jewish historians of our generation. And they confirmed what I thought, which was not to try and fight him on his own grounds. The guys are walking footnote.  But when you can make up footnotes, you seem very impressive. So they said, you know, engage the audience emotionally. He tried to. He recounted a story of a New York Times correspondent who had published his Gaza diary. This was before the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza. This New York Times correspondent wrote a horrific scene he'd witnessed on the beach at Gaza, where Israeli soldiers had rolled up in their jeeps and started shooting dead Palestinian Arab children for sport. And they were shooting them with silenced M16 rifles. And he described the eerie and grotesque scene of the soldiers firing and the children falling in complete silence. So I said, you know, that's a very moving story, but it's physically impossible. I mean, we're on University campus here. I assume there's a physics department. Somebody go and get someone from the physics department to explain that there is no such thing as a silenced M16 rifle. It's a physical impossibility. The M16 fires a supersonic round. It makes a sonic boom as it travels through the air. I don't know what this New York Times correspondent was smoking, but he did not witness M16s being fired in complete silence. There is no such thing. So he, and on the Fincaustin attempts to engage people's emotions, I counted it with a physical impossibility. It's rare to be able to come back at somebody who's engaging emotion. It's very hard to refute a feeling. I haven't had the opportunity to do so that time, but what I want you to learn from this is when you engage with other people, when you talk about Israel, engage their emotions. If you don't engage their emotions, the hearts and minds are never going to follow. You start off with their emotions.  I'll need a volunteer from the audience. Hands up, anyone here who has a brother? Anyone here got a brother? So you're conveniently near the front rows. You paid for the privilege, I see. Now you're going to suffer for it. I'm going to ask you a question. Before I ask you a question, simple thing. One brother more than one brother. One brother, that makes it easier. So I'm going to ask you a question about your brother. It's going to be a very simple, short question. And the rules are, A, you must respond truthfully, and B, because of the pressure of time we're under. There's a note here telling me not to schlep it out too long. I'd like you to limit your answer to yes or no. Is that agreeable? Okay, so here we go. I'm going to ask you the question and you will answer either yes or no. Yes. Is your brother out of prison yet? And I'll remind you that you agree to answer only yes or no. I think that's a very appropriate response. It's called facepalm. What have I done to you? Yes, I put you in a catch-22. Or to use the formal language. I just demonstrated what logicians call the fallacy of the complex question. I asked you a question that has an assumption built into it. And because of the very artificial way I set it up, you ended up without any means to address the assumption. Okay, you see how it works? It's pretty obvious how it works because it's a very transparent kind of trick. And therefore it's not really very useful. But what about this? I was on a talk radio show in Champaigne, Illinois. I told you I can see the world in my business. Champaigne, Illinois, and the host of the show wanted to get the discussion rolling by asking questions. Then other people would call in with questions. Just to give you a historical context, at the time that I was on the show, the Prime Minister of Israel was a man called Ariel Sharon. Some of you may have heard of him. So the host of the show says, Mr Olesko, you are an advocate for Israel. Tell our listeners what can Ariel Sharon do to bring peace and end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? Now what, if anything, is wrong without question? Yes. It's not just one assumption, as we did with you, but it's replete with assumptions. It assumes that as Prime Minister of Israel, Ariel Sharon could do, should do, and hasn't done something that could bring peace. And those are just the biggies. There's a few more in there as well. In such a short sentence, so many assumptions.  He wasn't trying to trick me. He was just talking about Israel the way people talk about Israel. And once you get into that kind of multi-layered, multiple assumptions kind of set up, you're talking about, again, to use the technical language of this business, what you're talking about is something called conceptual framing. A frame is something that contains a limited number of things. What's inside the frame is what we're talking about. What's outside the frame, well, we're not talking about that. Gentlemen, when you're in an argument with your wife, God forbid, and you give her your best line, and she says, we're not talking about that. You've lost.  But you've lost because she controls the conceptual frame. Whoever controls the conceptual frame controls the outcome of the communication interaction. You want a one-sentence definition of successful advocacy? It consists of obtaining and maintaining control of the conceptual frame. If I can borrow a phrase from a very august source, this is the pillar of pillars and foundation of foundations of advocacy. Controlling the conceptual frame. Whoever controls the conceptual frame controls the outcome of the communication interaction. About a year and a half ago, a year ago in November, I was on a speaker here in North America. I was in Kitchener. I mean, I do get around it. But the particulars, I'm going to tell you about, took place in Miami at Florida International University. I went down there to do a training workshop for Jewish students on the campus. And we were in a room on the university campus itself. And one of the student leaders said to me, look, I have to tell you, one of the rules of the campus is, if you have an event on the campus in one of the university rooms, then under the bylaws of the university, it must be open to everyone. So the students for justice in Palestine, that's when you speak for you, they're going to be here. OK, I'm not scared of them. They weren't just there.  One of the things you notice about Jewish events is nobody sits on the front row.  About half of them were as visibly Muslim as I'm visibly a Jew. They thought, I'm not going to stand for this. They've got lists of questions to ask. They're ready to pounce on me. Before I begin my presentation, I just want to share with you a personal anecdote. Two nights ago, I was staying at a friend's house in Baltimore, and something happened to me that happens to a lot of men of my age. In the middle of the night, I had to get up and go to the bathroom. Something for the students amongst you to look forward to. When the bathroom came back, I couldn't go back to sleep. I had this irrational desire to check my email. It's 2.30 in the morning. My wife was accusing me of being an addict. Here's the proof. I can't get back to sleep. My general strategy with the Yatesahara is just to give in. I struggle a bit. I can't go to sleep. I'm going to get up and check my email. It's an email from my wife. With the subject line, we're all okay. I didn't even bother reading the email. I went straight to the Times of Israel website. There's a photograph of the synagogue at the end of my street. A gasey street in Jerusalem. There's the news that four people, the death toll eventually rose to five, and two people had been brutally murdered while at prayer. In the synagogue at the end of the street, the synagogue that I frequently pray in. Two of them were personal friends of mine. The third one, Time Rothman, and I'm sure many of you are familiar with, was my downstairs neighbour. I said, I just wanted to share that with you before we went into the training session. Hachbam be goym tarmin.  They're not. I didn't get a word out of these students in Palestine guys after that, because they were smart enough to understand that I had such total control of the conceptual frame with such an emotive incident that there was literally nothing they could do that wouldn't make them look bad. So they took the last resort that they had, which was halfway through to all get up on mass and walk out in an attempt to disrupt the presentation. So as they were walking out, I said, look, I should point out I have nine children. It takes a lot to disrupt me.   I was flying from Dallas to Baltimore last week. Packed flight. I'm cheek by jowl with this guy sitting next to me. I'm a schmoozy kind of guy.  He says, I work in cyber security. I said that's interesting, I'm Israeli. We're the people the FBI calls when they can't crack an iPhone. Which guy, I said it's a mildly amusing comment, but it was his kind of issue. It was something he could relate to. And so we started a conversation. He was a remarkably well informed guy. Before he got into high tech, he'd studied philosophy in university. Thinking kind of guy. Asked me some very interesting questions, including tell me about the Kazars. I mean, that doesn't come up on planes very often. And he asked me various questions about the situation in Israel. And he took everything I said as, well I won't say gospel, because that's not such a reliable source for us. But he took everything I said as very authentic. Why? Because he liked me. I have become his friend through humour. It's one of the things we've got going for us, you know? Robin Williams, Oliver Shaw. Was on a talk show on German television. He recounts this incident. He said the interview asked him, why do you think, Mr Williams, that we Germans have a problem with humour? He says, perhaps it's because you killed all the funny people. Some people at Kona Olem have a Bashar Eichad.  I was in Germany. I told that over to a group of Jewish students in Germany. They liked it. So, one of the things we're going for is humour. Derision. Derision is a very powerful tool.  Moral reproof. I can make a joke out of that.  But you can use it for good as well. There's an organisation called Freedom House. It's just and well thought of human rights organisations. And it does something most human rights organisations don't do. It gives out grades. It gives different countries different grades for their human rights situation. It issues three grades. Free, partially free and not free. There is only one country in the Middle East that gets the grade of free. I'm not going to tell you what it is, but it begins with I, and it's not Iran or Iraq. It happens to be the only country in the Middle East that people are trying to boycott for its human rights record. Does that make sense? When you put it to people as broadly as that, you're deriding the idiocy, the moral incompetence of the whole BDS movement, which, once you put it like that, it's very hard for people to refute. So, engage your motions, control the conceptual frame, use humour. What's the easiest way to get control of the conceptual frame? I'm a lazy guy. I like doing things the easy way. I love exercise. I can watch it for hours. I'm lazy. What's the easiest way to get control of the conceptual frame? This was not a rhetorical question. Say again. Be the first one to say something. To initiate. Oh, we can't do that. We're Jewish. We don't initiate things. That's worse than cheeseburgers. We don't do that. We respond. Our word in Hebrew, modern Hebrew, for our efforts to present our case to the world, hasbara, comes with the verb lahazbia, which means to explain. Gentleman again. If you ever have to say to your beloved wife, but darling, I can explain. Forget it. It's all over. If you have to say, I can explain, you've lost. And our national strategy in Israel is to say, we can explain. We can explain. We can explain everything. Just give me a few months. I'll start with Avra Mavina. I'll work down to the present day. I'll include the Balfa Declaration and the San Remo Conference and the UN resolutions that approved the criteria. It doesn't work with the vast majority of people. There are some people, and they're often very important people, that it does work with. People who are intellectually engaged and want to think. And both of the people like that you'll meet in your life are going to be very important. But what about the rest of humanity? Easiest way to engage is to initiate. Start the discourse. Like I do with the guy on the plane. I don't planes a lot. I was on a plane once, I got bumped up to business class. There was this guy. The good news, I'm flying from London to New York. It's an eight-hour flight. I've got bumped up to business class. They put me next to a wine boar. One of these guys, all they talk about is wine. That's an impudent little vintage, I think from the west side of the vineyard. It just goes on and on and on. I am dying. But not soon enough. Eventually the guy remembers his manners. He says to me, where are you from? Do they grow any wine there? I grasped at the store. I said, yes, as a matter of fact, I'm from Israel. On the Golan Heights, there are wineries that have won international awards for the quality of their wines. He said, I've never tried any of theirs. I must make a point of it. I said, but he better out quickly because the Golan Heights is the area that Israel is under tremendous international pressure to give up to Syria, which is a Muslim country that doesn't allow the cultivation of wine. He said, well, we can't have that. If you initiate, if you know something about your audience and you initiate, then you've already won because you're talking about what they're interested in that helps your argument and you don't have to dig yourself out of a hole. How do you justify Israel's building of the apartheid wall in the illegally occupied Palestinian territories? When I turn around to somebody and say, look, Israel has built a security barrier to keep suicide bombers from murdering innocent women and children. How can you possibly be against it? Then I've got control of the conceptual front. As that great American poet Ogden Nash, the man who wrote the immortal words, shake and shake the ketchup bottle, first none will come and then a lottle. Great man Ogden Nash, right? As he once wrote in a parody of the idea of medieval chivalry, he wrote, twice armed is he whose cause is just. Three times he who gets his blow in fussed. Always make sure your retaliation precedes anything else. Initiate, initiate, initiate.  It's not the way we conceive of advocacy. Jews tend to conceive of advocacy exclusively in terms of responding to other people. Any doctors here? See, none of them admit it, right? And you know why doctors never admit it? Because it means they can't get away from their work.  It can never get away from your work. Everyone's a free consultation, I'm the same way. I never tell people in social settings what I do. Because then the next question is what would you say to an Arab if he said to you X? Wrong question. The right question is what can I be saying to make anti-Israel advocates lose sleep wondering how they're going to answer me. I like doing things the easy way the easy way is to initiate. In terms of the modalities of how you communicate about Israel again avoid the long lectures about history. Not that the history is important it's vital but the problem is the truth is so precious a commodity that needs to be rationed. Give to you to do much of it they get sick. So you have to give people just enough truth in a packaging that they can digest. So that means try and communicate visually if at all possible. If you're interested just Google my name and you'll find my website. Shoot me an email and I'll send you a handout that's connected to the session that we're doing this evening. Deals with it a bit more depth than we have time for. But I'll send you a handout and they included a handout a list of websites where you can get visual material. How do you get visual material in front of people's eyes?  That doesn't happen any longer. Now if you haven't already sent it via Instagram or posted at your Facebook page or tweeted it you can just thrust one of these things in front of somebody's eyes and show them a picture. So there are very striking pictures out there. Whether the picture is one of the pictures that haunts me from the aftermath of the sparrow pizza bombing in Jerusalem. An empty baby buggy stained with blood. I'll never get that picture out of my mind. Or whether it's the picture of somebody excavating in Erd's Isreal and finding the pomegranate design that was used on the hem of the Cern Goddl's garments. Pictures tell stories. You know the aphorism is a picture is worth 10,000 words. Jews have heard that. Jews believe that. And given the choice put in a picture in 10,000 words Jews always choose 10,000 words. So choose a picture. And the picture is a way of telling a story. Stalin in Ashmoza Honei is reputed to have said one person's death is a tragedy a million people's death is a statistic. The implication being it's easier to go away with killing a million people than one person. Because one person is a person. You can identify with them. You want to get people to identify tell stories. The story I told you earlier about being in the talk regular show in Champagne, Illinois with the question that was really not a very valid question. What can Ariel Sharon do to bring peace and end the Israeli Palestinian conflict? Here's how I responded. I said, look I can't answer that question. That's one of my favourite responses. I said I can't answer that question because I'm an Israeli and my wife and that time I had seven kids. My wife and my seven kids are home and they're threatened not by the conflict you named not the Israeli Palestinian conflict but a bigger conflict the Arab Israel conflict. Let me tell you something about myself. If this was television rather than radio this would be really funny. I serve in the Israeli army reserves. At the time it was true.  Our job is to go into buildings have been hit by missiles and rescue the injured and bring out the dead. Specifically what we train for are scud missile attacks. Iraqi Arab scud missile attacks such as the ones that fell on Israel during the first Gulf War. Syrian Arab scud missile attacks but we don't practice for Palestinian Arab scud missile attacks because Palestinian Arabs don't have scud missiles. I can't answer your question about the Israeli Palestinian conflict because my wife and my kids and everyone I know and everyone I love are sitting by the Arab Israel conflict. Let me talk about that and he did because I told a story and it was an interesting story and it had got his attention and it to change the conceptual front. How many people here have visited Israel that's close to unanimous you all have stories to tell. Please God you shouldn't have the same kind of stories that I can tell we live in a very small country very closely connected that isn't a single Israeli who doesn't know personally people who have been murdered. You don't have to get that far. I was going through security at Hare Airport a few years ago and that time I was the guy who every flight was randomly selected for additional securities and checks. I'm going through security the TSA guy has my bag open and he's rummaging through my underwear in the bag and they haven't got to that stage yet but it's getting close. But it's America and I say it's polite not as polite as Canadians but polite and he says I'm sorry to have to do this to you sir. I said okay I'm used to he says oh do you travel a lot? I do travel quite a bit actually but the reason I'm used to it is not because I travel a lot it's because of where I live in Israel and when I go to the shopping mall in Jerusalem I go through the identical experience I'm going through here I walk through an arch metal detector and a guy in a uniform like you checks the contents of my bag he says in a shopping mall I said yeah in a shopping mall because that guy is looking for the same people you're looking for because they want to kill me just like they want to kill you he got very quiet he finishes up checking my bag zips it up and pushes it across the desk to me he says God bless you and your country sir there are a lot of people out there who can be our friends if we present our case the right way I want to wrap up by returning to that original story I told you of being at the interdisciplinary centre in Herzliya later on in the discussion I was telling them the importance of telling stories so I told them a story I've been talking to a group of hill old directors now as some of you especially the students here will know hill old directors are a very mixed bag some of them are truly outstandingly excellent and some of them are not and I was talking to a group of hill old directors at the time the secretary of general of the UN was a man called Kofi Annan remember him his name in Hebrew means my monkey cloud it does not my fault it has his name I said to them recently Mr Kofi Annan said is it possible the whole world can be wrong and only Israel is right and my answer Mr Kofi Annan of course it's possible for most of human history the world was wrong and the Jews were right I thought that's a great line Jewish pride and everything one of these hill old directors is taking notes could you give me an example I said sorry an example at the time when the world was wrong and the Jews were right so as I say where I grew up I was gobsmacked but I recovered I said well ok let's start with monotheism and work forward human rights equality before the law restraint on rulers the Gantzvelt told us you can't run societies with rules like that and eventually they realised that we were right and they were wrong I said to the students at the IDC I said you don't come out of the story I'm asking something if you had to sum up the contribution of the Jews to world culture in one word you know what the word would be civilisation everything that we use today to measure whether a country is barbaric or civilised is a Jewish value what did the Jews give to the world civilisation what do the Jews want the IDC very diverse audience I said you want to know what a country wants what it believes in what it thinks about look at its national anthem a country's national anthem is its calling card to the world any French people here the French are very patriotic all the hands shoot up I said France has an amazing national anthem so the children of the country a day of glory is coming La Marseillais anybody seen the movie Casablanca knows how stirring La Marseillais that's a great national anthem great tune great words you didn't listen to the words of La Marseillais the impure blood of our enemies will water our fields now that's a national anthem I grew up in Britain a great national anthem send her victorious happy and glorious long to reign over us doesn't rhyme but it's a great national anthem any Germans here they know what's coming a few timorous hands go up Germany Germany Germany Germany over everything in the world now that's a national anthem what's the Israeli national anthem a tick for the hope hope of what again you have to look in the words very poetic phrase Llywodd am Hotschi Bartzenu our aspiration to be a free people in our land Israel announces to the world its greatest dream which is leave us alone just leave us alone Israel has the nerdiest national anthem in the world sounds like it was written by Jerry Seinfeld just leave us alone that's all we ask new civilization what do we want in return just leave us alone even that did we get even that did we get I know I'm speaking to a very diverse audience here at the interdiscipline new centre and I know about a third of the people here in the audience are not Jewish so I hope the non-Jews in the audience are not going to be offended by what I'm going to say right now for the next minute or two I'm not talking to you I'm not talking to a single non-Jew in the audience here I'm only talking to the Jews I've stressed the importance of telling stories we have the most incredible story to tell we're the nation that gave the world civilization all we asked in return was to be left alone yet within living memory a third of our entire population was murdered in circumstances of unprecedented barbarity and within that same generation in contradiction to all laws of history miraculously we arose literally like the phoenix from the ashes returned to our ancient homeland after 2,000 years of exile what nation in the world has a story like that to tell if I can borrow a phrase from the competition it is the greatest story ever told a new non-Jews in the audience I'm talking to you now for a second I wasn't talking to you before because you don't need to hear this you already know it you're at an Israeli university coming to a voluntary program to learn how to be advocates for Israel because you know what our story is and you've been inspired by it and you've been uplifted by it and you've been motivated by it Jews, why have you forgotten to tell our story there is a gaping hole in the heart of our advocacy activity and it's not through want of commitment and it's not through want of of willingness it's because we don't talk about that key issue of what we are and what we have to offer the world and what we have to offer the world is a lot more than just high tech fill that hole use the techniques that I've spoken to you about not to tell the world that Tel Aviv is the most gay friendly city in the world but to tell them who we are and what we have contributed and what we do contribute to the world tell our story and I'm not a rough and I'm not talking from the perspective of a villain I'm a technician and I'm telling you as a technician go out and tell our story and we will win that's the offer
