Shlosha Shehikimu Medinah

Three men, each in his own way, made Israel happen. Their names were David Ben-Gurion, Menachem Begin, and Avraham Stern. The author, who grew up during Israel's War of Independence, shows how these three who came as young men from Poland, reclaimed their ancestral land and enabled their people to come back to life out of the ashes of the Holocaust. They formed a thriving and dynamic state which, despite all its problems and shortcomings, has signed peace treaties with two of it neighbors, Egypt and Jordan, and continues to look for a last solution to the century-old Arab-Israeli conflict.
