Het meest treffend aan het interview is de pessimistische, maar ook realistische kijk van Benny Begin op het vredesproces met de Palestijnen. Volgens zijn eigen zeggen bevindt Israel zich in een gekkenhuis, doelend op de omringende buren van Israel met hun wapenarsenalen, die slechts de vernietiging van de Joodse staat op het oog hebben. Waaronder de 40.000 Hezbollah raketten in Libanon… Continue reading

A selected number of its members served in military hospitals, and their emblem, the Red Shield of David, was recognized by the British Military Government. Shortly after the end of the War, the service was disbanded… Continue reading
