Recent data, however, suggests that more 50 percent of young Jews in the country lose touch with their heritage. Community officials said the issue transcends the \u201cclassic assimilation\u201d of mixed marriages, and that it seems young Jews increasingly choose to shun their religion and even distance themselves from the State of Israel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">In a letter sent to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this week, Argentine Sephardic Rabbi Isaac Saka wrote, \u201cThis painful situation will lead to future generations, millions of Jews, who will be oblivious to their Jewish identity, and have no affiliation with the State of Israel. Millions of others might know they are Jewish, but they will lack any understanding of their heritage.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Saka urged Netanyahu to form a special forum comprising the heads of Jewish communities and organizations worldwide to prevent accelerated assimilation, and suggested an international summit \u201cto discuss this urgent, important, and dramatic issue\u2019s implications on the Jewish people\u2019s future.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<hr style=\"height: 15px; background: #d0e6fa; width: 710px;\" \/>\n<div id=\"content\" class=\" content-alignment&lt;br \/&gt;&lt;br \/&gt; \">\n<div id=\"watch-description\" class=\"yt-uix-button-panel\">\n<div id=\"watch-description-text\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"> twoje uwagi, linki, wlasne artykuly, lub wiadomosci przeslij do: <span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a style=\"color: #000080; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"mailto:webmaster@reunion68.com\">webmaster@reunion68.com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr style=\"width: 710px;\" \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Argentina\u2019s Jewish Leaders Ask for Israel\u2019s Help in Face of Accelerated Assimilation Israel Hayom Sinagoga de la Congregaci\u00f3n Israelita Argentina, a synagogue in Buenos Aires.
