ועם הבנזוג הכי אהוב בעולם!!!
Emily Schrader has done so much not only for the Jewish people but also for all the others, who have been fighting tooth and nail against dictators, Islamic extremists, warmongering autocrats, and maniacs.
Apart from her strong advocacy for Iranians, she has put so much efforts into supporting Ukrainians, Armenians, Druze, and many other people who know what war means and who do not have the luxury to post their selfies on Instagram, as they have been too busy with standing in the battle trenches, with rifles in their hands.
