Happy 70th Birthday, Israel!

It’s Independence Day in the coolest non-bacon-eating nation on the planet.

A lot of people tried to stop that number from climbing. They all went home with their tails between their legs.

  1. I highly recommend Steven Pressfield’s book “The Lion’s Gate”. Pressfiled interviewed dozens of people who fought or otherwise participated in the 6 Day War. Many of the interviewees also fought in the war for independence and the first third or so of the book reviews that war and how it set the stage for the 6 Day War. He weaves these individual’s own words into a cohesive, detailed, and compelling account.
    Amazon has the Kindle version for $6.99 – you won’t be disappointed.
