"There was no joy in my heart. I was thinking of the war we were going to have to fight."


On the afternoon of May 14, 1948, David Ben-Gurion declared the establishment of a new nation. "We hereby proclaim the establishment of the Jewish state in Palestine, to be called Israel.”

"And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more."
Isaiah 2:4
