Kfar Etzion? They wouldn’t let anyone in to bury the dead until the 1949 cease fire agreement.
I know the grandson of a doctor who was spared. She and the rest of the survivors were transported to Hebron, where an angry mob was waiting to lynch them. The Mukhtar, however, threw down his lance in front of them and dared anyone to cross it in order to do his guests harm. Nobody did. It pays to have a Mukhtar nearby with a sense of decency. They were later transported safely back to what was left of Israel after 1948. Her grandson now lives in Bat Ayin Bet in—you guessed it!—Gush Etzion, and under threat of bulldozers.
