An Interview with David Ha'Ivri



IMHO David says it all. It's a bit long, but worth the time.

Espero hacer una versión similar en castellano, idioma que David no domina.

A Response -- Una respuesta

My Facebook account was disabled / Me suspendieron la cuenta de Facebook

Tonight I suddenly noticed that my Facebook account was disabled. Over the past several months I've been quite active there. Oh well! You'll probably see me writing here again.

Nine Narrow Miles

 

Nine Narrow Miles, a 1980 short documentary about the strategic importance of the territories of Judea and Samaria, on the west bank of the Jordan River. Without them Israel would be vulnerable to an attack from the east. When the Armistice of Rhodes was signed in 1949, Israel's borders placed the bulk of the population right under the guns of the Jordanian army. In it's narrower point, the width of the country was merely nine miles from the Samarian hills to the Mediterranean.

Judea and Samaria were won in the 1967 Six-Day War. If the territories were to be given up to the Arabs, the dangerous and disadvantageous situation would once again pose a threat to Israel's densely populated coast.


Director: Yechiel Ne'eman

Produced by Ely Dory, the I.D.F. Spokesman Film Unit in 1980
