Born and raised in Palestine, my parents emigrated from Russia in 1906 when it was still part of the Ottoman Empire. I grew up under the rule of the British Mandate. Britain surrendered the Palestinian problem to the UN and evacuated in May of 1947. The War of Independence began and my brothers and I joined the young Israeli army and fought till the end of the war.
