Death of the Prophet: The Life of Ze’ev Jabotinsky, Part 4

Dela

This is our fourth and final episode of our series on the life of Ze’ev Jabotinsky

In this episode, we get into:

  • The 1936 evacuation plan to move a million and a half Jews out of Eastern Europe, and why Jewish leaders called it “outrageous and criminal”

  • Jabotinsky’s uneasy deal with Poland’s Foreign Minister, Józef Beck: Jabotinsky wanted Jews saved, Beck wanted them gone

  • The 1939 White Paper, illegal immigration, and the Sakarya, the rescue ship led by Jabotinsky’s son Eri

  • A 25-year-old Menachem Begin publicly challenging his teacher, and Avraham Stern walking out to form what became Lehi

  • Jabotinsky’s final campaign in America, his death, and why David Ben-Gurion refused to bring his bones home

  • The story of Shlomo Ben-Yosef, and the legacy that outlived all of Jabotinsky’s lost battles
