Israelis from all walks of life on Friday, March 17, celebrated Kenyans for demonstrating unwavering support for Israel.
Led by one of Israel's most prominent Youtubers and advocates, Hananya Naftali, Israelis expressed their admiration for a Kenyan college that is constructed in the shape of the Star of David on his architectural design.
"This incredible star of David-shaped building is the Tambach Teachers Training College in Kenya," Hananya Naftali noted.
In a statement that was widely shared on Israeli social media circles, they acknowledged Kenya's effort in reinforcing historical justifications about the Land of King David.
"It's quite a good building where people could study good education in life. Peace with the Kenyan people," Kuncil Deria noted.
A number of Israelis conveyed their desire to visit Kenya and tour local national parks and games reserves dotted across the country.
The Star of David appears on the flag of Israel as a symbol of both Jewish identity and Judaism.
It is largely identified in the shape of a hexagram with a compound of two equilateral triangles that crisscross each other.
The Star of David was originally used as a derivation of the seal of King Solomon as a distinctive symbol from 17th-century Prague. Prague is the capital city of the Czech Republic.
Tambach Teachers Training College was designed in honour of King David, who ruled Israel from 1010–970 BCE.
David was born in Bethlehem in the Kingdom of Israel and is described as a friend of God in the Holy Bible.
Kenya has had friendly, long-standing diplomatic relations with Israel, especially, in areas of agriculture, technology and sciences.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on November 28, 2017, visited Nairobi Kenya, and met eleven other African leaders.
"The purpose of the one-day trip to Nairobi is to deepen Israel’s ties with Africa, including by establishing connections with nations with which we do not have diplomatic relations," Netanyahu stated.
