Boris, Nice gallery and fun to see the celebration.
Last week they aired the movie 'Cast a Giant Shadow' from 1966(?). It fictionalized the struggle 66 years ago, in a good way. The star cast was lead by Kirk Douglas and included John Wayne and Yul Brynner, and my favorite - Senta Berger just dripping sensuality. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cast_a_Giant_Shadow Regards, Bob S.
