My son and I visit Holland every year (17 visits so far). We make it a point to visit Jewish sites. This lecture was so deep and informative. We are headed back in two weeks and will visit sites mentioned that we were unaware of, thanks to Dr. Amroussi.
Fantastic presentation! I learned so much. Highly recommended.
