Journal entries should also address the question of which Jewish diaspora communities seem to have been more or less successful. Consider how we should evaluate or measure success: Survival? Prosperity? Contributions to Jewish religion and culture? Demonstration of endurance or courage? Which diaspora communities were most influential in shaping the survival of Jews? Which diaspora communities have been most successful in creating a well-rounded and Jewish life for their fellow Jews? What is the nature of the Jewish diaspora relationship with the Land of Israel and the State of Israel? And how does Israel interact with diaspora Jewish communities?
