Well that was quick. The last vid has been deleted already. Is this the same one (Lia Ezra)? - [Login to see the link]
Squirrel,
Yes, that's the same one.
Yaron,
A lot of Israelies speak perfect English with an American accent because they're dual citizens and live in both places on and off. Take Natalie Portman for example. Which reminds me here's a little tid bit from an interview with her:
When it comes to Portman's own romantic life, she says she's not necessarily looking for a Jewish husband. "A priority for me is definitely that I'd like to raise my kids Jewish, but the ultimate thing is just to have someone who is a good person and who is a partner. It's certainly not my priority." She says her parents don't push her one way or another. "My dad always makes this stupid joke with my new boyfriend, who is not Jewish. He says, 'It's just a simple operation.'" She laughs. "They've always said to me that they mainly want me to be happy and that's the most important thing, but they've also said that if you marry someone with the same religion, it's one less thing to fight about."
Portman says she resists any kinds of blind tribalism. "I don't believe in going along with anything without questioning. I think that's the basis of Judaism: questioning and skepticism." She says that for her, basic humanity comes before faith. "To me, the most important concept in Judaism is that you can break any law of Judaism to save a human life. I think that's the most important thing. Which means to me that humans are more important than Jews are to me. Or than being Jewish is to me."
