Through childhood to adulthood, the topic of Israel — the sole Jewish state — is vibrant, sacred, and ever-present. This graphic comic portrays the connection that many Jewish populations possess with Israel. The comic embodies the scrutiny, battle, and desire for this land after seeing all for which the country stands. Currently and historically, Israel has been fought over time and time again, though we have yet to see a period where the struggle has been resolved and the land left in peace. Israel’s journey thus far falls gently into the pages of Ha’Am, where, as a student-run Jewish newsmagazine, we are consistently representing the Jewish community and Israel to the truest and best of our ability.

Amir Naveh
Amir Naveh is third-year at UCLA majoring in English. Amir’s passion for writing comes from his love to communicate. On campus, Amir is also involved with a comedy magazine, Hillel, and the Young Storyteller’s Foundation. However, Amir chose to be part of Ha’Am mainly for the glamour and the notoriety — and of course the weekly falafels. But that is a given. When Amir isn’t writing he can likely be found talking and meeting new people, being indecisive, and dancing to EDM. Amir especially enjoys grapes on pizzas, a good laugh over nearly anything, and being at the beach. Always the beach. Ha’Am gives Amir the opportunity to better connect with Jewish and Israeli culture and identity as well as the chance to be Ha’Ambitious.
