Movie Haiku:Epic recounting the founding of the modern state of Israel, released as the country prepared for its Bar Mitzvah year (13), & years before the Pyrrhic victory of 1967. American actors play Israelis & the villans are British. There are no significant Arab characters. Nevertheless, a stirring record of its own time.
