We wish we could say we discovered her, but we are no less grateful to honor her. Wonder Woman herself! Gal Gadot has made Am Yisrael proud over the years. She is on the receiving end of a lot of hate just for being Israeli, and yet she never stops proudly owning her identity. The warm way she lights up a screen and lights up a room gives a humanizing association with Israel to people which helps to counter the demonizing material many people passively consume.
