14. 0:30transfer credit, gold, and funds across
15. 0:32borders with a speed and security no
16. 0:33other bank could offer, because they
17. 0:35relied on each other and it worked. One
18. 0:39of them was sent to Paris, the one who
19. 0:41was sent to Paris is called Jacob James
20. 0:43. James de Rothschild. He was one of
21. 0:48the key figures in establishing the
22. 0:49settlements during the First Aliyah.
23. 0:51Gentlemen, the First Aliyah was
24. 0:53entirely Haredi. From the Second Aliyah
25. 0:55, all sorts of Bolsheviks from Russia
26. 0:57started arriving here, wreaking havoc,
27. 0:59and from then until today, the country
28. 1:01has been going from bad to worse. The
29. 1:03first settlements established in the
30. 1:05Land of Israel were about to collapse;
31. 1:07he supported them all with his own
32. 1:09money: Rishon LeZion, Ekron, Zichron
33. 1:12Ya'akov, Rosh Pinna, Metula, Binyamina,
34. 1:14Petah Tikva, Mazkeret Batya–they were
35. 1:16all facing economic collapse. He
36. 1:19stepped in to help and sustained them
37. 1:20all, paid off all their debts, and
38. 1:22provided them with agricultural
39. 1:24realities to support the residents '
40. 1:25livelihood. He founded the Carmel
41. 1:28Mizrachi wineries in Rishon and Zichron
42. 1:30Ya'akov. He was a Jew who observed
43. 1:32Torah and commandments, a huge patron
44. 1:34of Judaism. Baron Rothschild invested
45. 1:37enormous sums in supporting religious
46. 1:39institutions, synagogues, and yeshivas.
47. 1:41He was in close contact with the rabbis
48. 1:43of his generation. To the world, he was
49. 1:46the Elon Musk of his day. It's no
50. 1:52coincidence Tevye the Dairyman in
51. 1:54Fiddler on the Roof sang "If I Were a
52. 1:56Rich Man," oh boy, may God have mercy
53. 1:58on you, lovely. Today, it needs
54. 2:07updating: "If I were an Elon Musk," oh
55. 2:09my, oh my, how much Torah I would
56. 2:11spread in the world; meanwhile, we are
57. 2:13in the neighborhood of the voters.
