Thanks for the excellent historical post. My father, who had survived the camps, fled the new Communist regime in Czechoslovakia and left for Palestine where much of our family had lived since 1926. When he arrived Israel had been born and he went straight into the army. He fought to relieve the siege of Jerusalem. (He also fought in '56 in Sinai.)

We need to remember that our very survival is owed to the ordinary Israelis who fight and die to protect us in our neverending defensive wars against the unceasing Arab attempts to destroy us.

Shavua tov.
