Making Aliyah

Just about every day we see more pictures of violence and terror in the state of Israel. But despite this, many young Australians want to make Israel their home.

There's even a word for it - Aliyah - and today on Street Stories, Cath Dwyer meets a group of young Australians who are planning to make the move and migrate to Israel. Some do it for religious reasons, others because of a deep love of Jewish culture and the Jewish people, and some because it just feels like home.

Guests
