Why should I become a member of Understanding Israel Foundation?
​
Every pro-Israel voice matters.
​
Every pro-Israel voice is needed.
​
The Understanding Israel Foundation envisages a Trinidad & Tobago with Israel as it's greatest ally, a Trinidad & Tobago which supports Israel fully on the world stage, and a Trinidad & Tobago which benefits from Israel as a true partner and friend.
​
To make this a reality, the Understanding Israel Foundation is counting on your pro-Israel voice to join with the thousands of other voices which, collectively, will loudly proclaim to the government and opposition in Trinidad & Tobago: "This is what we want!" The Understanding Israel Foundation needs every pro-Israel voice in Trinidad & Tobago to unite and demand this of our leadership. As much as the pro-Israel American voices influence, shape and determine foreign policy in the United States, Members of the Understanding Israel Foundation can do so with equal effectiveness in Trinidad & Tobago.
​
Why should I support Israel?
​
The Bible famously says to Israel in Numbers 24:9, "Blessed is the one who blesses you."
This blessing is synchronous for Israel and for the nation which blesses Israel. When Trinidad & Tobago blesses Israel, Israel will bless us in return. Israel offers many opportunities, collaborative avenues, and technological advances to its closest allies. Israeli innovation and creativity, scientific and medical advancements, agricultural & water management prowess, and financial & technological capabilities are just some of the possibilities it will share with Trinidad & Tobago when we are ready to bless Israel fully.
​
Never before in Trinidad & Tobago's history has there been such a concerted, focused and committed effort to bless Israel nationally. The Understanding Israel Foundation is the first and only medium through which this will be done, but we need you to accomplish all we are ready to work for. We need your voice, we need your support, we need your prayers.
​
We invite you to become a Member of the Understanding Israel Foundation: to be a part of the movement that we are creating to lobby the government and the opposition to our cause. With your voice - with all of the pro-Israel voices in Trinidad & Tobago - we can make it happen.
