The Bnei Menashe are coming home!

Bnei Menashe Girls with Israeli Flags

In a dramatic development, the 2700-year-old dream of India's Bnei Menashe to make aliyah to Israel has received an unprecedented boost.

After years of lobbying by Shavei Israel, t
he Ministerial Committee on Immigration and Absorption met in the Prime Minister's Office and decided to formally draft a government resolution that will permit all of the 7,232 Bnei Menashe remaining in India to move to Israel. The resolution, which is backed by both Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman and Absorption Minister Sofa Landver, is slated to be submitted to the Israeli cabinet no later than the end of the July.

The move came in response to an appeal from Shavei Israel Chairman Michael Freund, who addressed the Ministers and called on them to "make history" and bring the Bnei Menashe home.

We are now less than a month away from an historic turning point, one that will see this Lost Tribe of Israel brought back to Zion. Now, more than ever, we need your help. There is so much that needs to be done to prepare the Bnei Menashe in India for their new lives in the Jewish state.

Menashe was one of Joseph's two sons born in Egypt. The Bnei Menashe (literally the "sons of Menashe") are now about to cross their own Red Sea, reuniting with the land and the people of Israel. Click here to help the Bnei Menashe come home.
