Netanyahu Becomes Longest-Serving
Prime Minister
PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN Netanyahu became
Israel’s longest-serving premier on July 20, surpassing David
Ben-Gurion, JNS.org reported.

That day marked Netanyahu’s 4,876th day in office, counting
his tenure from 1996 to 1999 and from 2009 until the present.
That eclipses Ben-Gurion, who served from 1948 to 1954, then
again from 1955 into 1963. Yitzhak Shamir is the third longest-
serving prime minister.

Netanyahu is the world’s 35th longest-reigning leader and
16th-longest among Organization for Economic Cooperation
and Development nations since World War II ended. He ranks
third among current OECD nation leaders, trailing Turkey’s
Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Germany’s Angela Merkel.

IT’S NOT EASY BEING an observant Jew in the
wilderness, but it can be done. about our new
incentive!
As published in a 1978 article by Norton B. Stern in the
Jewish Journal of Los Angeles, the gold fever country around
Yosemite attracted Jews as well as others seeking to strike
gold or create businesses that supplied miners. Though their
numbers were not huge, Jewish immigrants from Europe
found their way to the Yosemite era and even became active
in politics in the surrounding communities.

The nearest synagogues are more than an hour away in
Stockton and Fresno and no kosher restaurants are found
near the park, yet Jews and Jewishness can be found in the
wilderness. In 2010, Jewish Yosemite Park Ranger Scott
Gediman told a reporter on tour that, “The Ahwahnee Hotel
kitchen is not kosher, but the hotel has the capacity to stage
most Jewish wedding receptions, and the park itself hosts
several Jewish wedding ceremonies annually.”

In the Mariposa Museum and History Center, the story of
many of the early Jews and their entrepreneurial adventures
can be found.

Stockton and Modesto have significant Jewish communi-
ties. Chabad of Fresno is the closet organized congregation
to the park. There is also a Jewish summer camp, Camp
Tawonga, in Yosemite.

Writing in the Jewish blog publication Reshet Ramah in
2017, Avi Rubin, who lives in the park and works as an environ-
mental science educator with NatureBridge, wrote, “My Jewish
life has become a different sort of beast. To my knowledge, there
are a total of 12 Jews living within 50 miles of me.” l
