Israel: A Nation is Born, Part 3 - Coming of Age, 1956-1967

This video is part of a BBC series, hosted by former Israeli Foreign Minister Abba Eban, that chronicles the history of the formation and development of the nation of Israel. Created at the end of WWII as a homeland for Jews displaced by Hitler's agenda, Israel was protected by United Nations forces. When they withdrew from the region, Israel was subject to attack from unfriendly neighboring countries. The ensuing events are the topic of this video. ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, All Movie Guide
