Happy Birthday USA

The more I see, the more I appreciate the greatness of this country. And I have tremendous hakoras hatov.

The U.S., with all of its issues, it is a light in a world of deception and darkness. It is the only place, other than Israel, where Jews can feel remotely comfortable. It is the one country that, to some degree, has not totally deluded itself as to the threat posed by Islam. It is one of the only places where hard work is rewarded and the merit system still largely prevails.

So, happy birthday America. Rock on.
