    In today's episode we discuss how our discussion regarding conquering the Land of Israel relates to every Jew's study of Torah, exploring our prenatal Torah education and our subsequent forgetting of what we learned at birth.

    ------------------------

    In this short series of episodes, we'll be discussing the deeper spiritual underpinnings of the nations of the world accusations against the Jews of being "occupiers" of the Land of Israel and of stealing the land.

    Does their claim have any basis? How should we as Jews address these allegations?

    What is the true root of the Jewish connection to the Land of Israel?

    These and other questions will be addressed.

    Based on a Sicha of the Rebbe on the first Rashi of Parshas Breishis, Given in the year 5726 (1965).

    Studied in the merit of a swift victory for the IDF in the current war and protecting the IDF soldiers and all Jewish lives within the land of Israel and throughout the world, as well as the speedy return of all of the hostages.
