West - HSC - Northern - Emek Ha Ilanot - A Druze Voice For Israel 2024

Join us for a fascinating and thought-provoking presentation with Rania Dean, an Israeli American Druze based in Los Angeles, who is a devoted mother and impassioned advocate for Israel.

Raised in a patriotic family with ties to the IDF and influential political circles, Rania is driven by a deep-rooted commitment to her homeland. Rania's advocacy journey was reignited on October 7th. As a non-Jewish Israeli, Rania provides a unique perspective that dispels falsehoods and promotes truth to counter misinformation about Israel.

The Druze faith is monotheistic, ethnoreligious, and an Abrahamic religion. Druze are unitarian, but they recognize many prophets, including Jesus, John the Baptist, Mohammed, Khidr, and Moses. However, their most respected biblical prophet is Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law. The Druze community in Israel is a shining example of resilience, unity, and determination. With their own courts and spiritual leadership, they have upheld their unique cultural identity while actively participating in the defense forces of the country.
