53 books17 followers
David ben Gurion, originally David Grün, active Polish-born Israeli political leader, in the Zionist movement founded the Mapai party in 1930, after World War II organized the resistance against the British, and upon independence from 1948 served as prime minister to 1953 and from 1955 to 1963.

David ben Gurion came first.

Passion of ben Gurion began early in life to a major and executive head in 1946. He headed the Jewish agency later as president of its executive de facto of the community in Palestine and largely its struggle. On 14 May 1948, he formally proclaimed the establishment of the state, helped to write the declaration, and first signed it. Ben-Gurion during the Arabs of 1948 united the various Jewish militias into the defense forces. People subsequently knew him as "father."

Ben-Gurion followed and first served. He helped to build the state institutions, presided, and aimed various national projects at the development of the country. He also oversaw the absorption of vast numbers of all Jews. A centerpiece of his foreign improved relationships with the West Germans. The Nazis persecuted Jews during the Holocaust; he worked very well with government of Konrad Adenauer in Bonn, and West Germany provided large sums in the reparations agreement in compensation.

He in 1954 resigned, served at defense, and afterward returned in 1955 to office. Arab guerrillas attacked; he responded aggressively and after Egypt nationalized the Suez Canal invaded in 1956 alongside French forces.

From office, he stepped away in 1963 and from life retired in 1970. He then at Sde Boker, a kibbutz in the Negev, lived until his death.

Posthumously, Ben-Gurion was named one of Time magazine's 100 Most Important People of the 20th century.

Yeshayahu Leibowitz considered Ben-Gurion "to have hated Judaism more than any other man he had met." On his religious views, Ben-Gurion was an atheist.

الكتاب ملهم جدًا، رغم إنه كبييير جدًا. ولا أعتقد ولا أنتوي التفرغ لقرائته. الكتاب نافذة على جزء مهم من تاريخ الشرق الأوسط. جزء مطموس عمدًا في التناول الإعلامي وكتب التاريخ المدرسي وحتى الحواديت الشعبية.

ملحوظة عابرة: لو عندنا قادة من نوع بن جوريون كان زماننا في مكان ثاني خالص
