Who knew that President Obama could speak Hebrew?  Well that’s just what he did today.  Rosh Hashanah kicks off tonight. For the first time, The President recorded video greetings that can be seen online with French, Hebrew, Russian, Spanish, Turkish, Arabic, and Persian subtitles to reach out to the entire world.  No President has done this before.

Here is a bit of the speech,

Let us work to extend the rights and freedoms so many of us enjoy to all the world’s citizens – to speak and worship freely; to live free from violence and oppression; to make of our lives what we will. And let us work to achieve lasting peace and security for the state of Israel, so that the Jewish state is fully accepted by its neighbors, and its children can live their dreams free from fear.

I can’t argue with that!  Sending out warm wishes for Rosh Hashanah from Backseat Cuddler!
