"I prefer a powerful and proud Jewish State that is hated by the entire world than an Auschwitz that is loved by one and all"
(Rabbi Meir Kahane)
If you opened this page, you are interested in History of the State of Israel. Begin with reading a book 'Moshe Dayan: Story of My Life.' It is an excellent book for anyone interested in Israel's history, wants to know details and understand the current situation.
From 'Story of my Life' by Moshe Dayan:
The 6 Jews impressed Ben-Gurion because, as he used to say, they did not tell other Jews
what had to be done. They did it themselves, and thereby did more than any other Jew to
lay the foundations for return of the Jewish nation to its homeland, to work on the soil,
and to establish the Jewish state.
Adolphe Cremieux, layer and statement, who abolished
slavery in French colonies,
enfranchised Algerian Jews, and went to the middle east during the notorious
'Damascus Affair'
to save Jewish prisoners in Damascus from gallows, and the community from mob violence,
following the anti-Semitic blood libel of 1840.
Charles Netter, who in 1870 founded and directed the first Jewish agricultural
school in Palestine at Mikveh Israel.
Baron Edmond de Rothschild, who invested prodigious effort and means to establish
and develop Jewish farm settlement in Palestine at the end of the nineteen and
beginning of the twentieth century.
The three others were Palestinian Jews, Hungarian-born Joshua Stampfer and David Meir Gutman,
and Jerusalem-born Joel Moses Solomon, who in 1878 founded Petach Tickvah,
the first Jewish farm village in the country in recent times.
They were observant Jews from Jerusalem who were determined to redeem not
only themselves by living in the Land of Israel but also the land itself,
by farming it as had their biblical forebears.
