This review is from: Long is the road to freedom (Hardcover)

Long is the Road to Freedom is the accounting of the personal experience of one who was leader of the Irgun before Menachem Begin took over after his arrival in Israel.

Yaakov Meridor here accounts his experience of being a prisoner of the British colonial administration, exiled in prison camps in Africa, and the countless escapes he took part in, together with the Jewish Patriots of the Hebrew National Liberation Movement, the Irgun Zvai Leumi , and their journeys through Egypt , Sudan , Eritrea , Ethiopia and Kenya , in the years 1945-1948.

It is the story of the tenacity and fighting spirit of the Nation of Israel, and the determination of the liberators of the Irgun Zvai Leumi to get back to their homeland of Israel.

And so the will of the People of Israel to hold onto their homeland, and never submit to another holocaust, will always prevail. Let the media, those in the universities, the United Nations ,European Union and the dictators club known as the Non Aligned Movement and all other critics of Israel be aware of this.
