Telem - Speaking for Israel

Telem is about hasbara. Telem is about Israel. In an indifferent world we speak about coming home, about re-building our ruined cities, about discovering our ancient scrolls in the desert caves, about walking amazed on the hills our forefathers named. We speak about the idea that is Israel, about the people who made it happen, about moments of tears and those of great happiness. This is Telem. This is public diplomacy. This is Israel.

The words we speak become the world we live in.

What do we believe in?

We believe that the Jewish people finally came home, and that home is Israel. We believe that we belong here in the Middle East and our main adversary is the notion that we are strangers. And we believe that the ME is a wonderful and complicated place, that follows its own rules. Want to see more?

What are we doing?

We talk - in campuses, offices, organizations and sometimes on the street. We write about the Jewish story, about the creation of Israel, about our neighbors and us in the Middle East. We encourage others to stand up and speak - and give them tools to do so. We use any platform we have to do one thing - to speak for Israel.
