Israel and the United States were both born of a great and dramatic "ingathering" of the dispossessed from many corners of the world. and ingathering. as Emma Lazarus wrote of the poor. the huddled masses yearning to breathe free. the homeless and the tempesttossed. These were our countrys founders. and they were Israels. These were the refugees from persecution and oppression who shaped our common freedoms. molded our precious liberties. and created our factories and farms. Our countries are linked together by our mutual dedication to the democratic dream. to our profoundly shared belief in the dignity of man and the preciousness of human life. The men and women of Israel and the people of the United States are today. and must always be. brothers and sisters in a common cause. the common ideal of human brotherhood.
