Hatikvah in English (Israel’s National Anthem)
Hatikvah (Hebrew: הַתִּקְוָה) meaning: 'The Hope' is the National
Anthem of the State of Israel since its founding in 1948.
It was made the Zionist Anthem in 1886 and used throughout
the World to reflects the 2,000-year-old desire of the Jewish People to return
to the Land of Israel in order to reclaim it as a free and Sovereign Nation-State.
Ever since it has been wildly popular to show the courage and
strength of the Jewish People despite a World that hates them.
It was sung after Russian Pogroms, during the Germans'
Holocaust and in many times of struggle and pain.
A Former Member of the Sonderkommando (Prisoners forced by
the Germans to clear the belongings and burn the bodies of those Gassed) reported
that the song was spontaneously sung by 3,792 Czechoslovak Jewish Men, Women and Children at the entrance
to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Gas Chamber on March 8, 1944. While singing they were
beaten by Waffen-SS Guards
Hatikvah is usually sung in Hebrew, but here it is in English for the American Hostages being held by Hamas and to show that this Attack is not just Israel's problem.
