6:34 pm
it's obvious that we've come a long way to reach this point. for years, generation after generation, we've trying, and today we're on the verge of success, on the verge of achieving victory. our long way is about to bear fruits. the last time when i visited the king of jordan, he asked, what? why are you in such a
6:35 pm
hurry and why do you insist so much and you of should be patient? i said, we've been waiting for 2 years. do you still believe that we are impatient? we might not remember all the 2000 years, but at least i for one can talk about the hardships and efforts me and my parents went through. i asked abdullah, do you remember? remember all the days and seconds of the nabatians? do you remember all their sufferings after the arrival of the romans? no, but it's obvious that you and facehall who want to establish a government in jordan and iraq today, remember your father's efforts. even if sharif hussein had not passed away in 1931, he could have talked about the dream that had been kept alive. for
6:36 pm
77 years to pass it to you. it was these growing sufferings that let herzel to request the establishment of a home for jews, and only year before i was born, the first world jewish congress was formed in bussel, switzerland. the first candle was lit
6:37 pm
and it was supposed to shine light to the dark corner of the world. i was less than 9 years old. i mean it was in 1906 when parents and shena and zipka, the other two daughters of the family arrived in the united states. shina was 17 years old. and zipka was four years younger than me. the us was a place that seemed to be the promised land for the whole world. my dad had gone to new york a year earlier and we spent that year in belarus. in 1906 we decided to. joined my dad
6:38 pm
in milwaukee, wisconsin. at that time, the second wave of immigration to palestine, the promised land had begone. my father did not want to experience another displacement. many of our fellow jews tried to persuade him to go to palestine instead of the us, but there of was still no government and law in the land. "the ottoman empire was getting weaker day by day. herzzel met with abdullah hamid ii, the ottoman sultan and asked him for land to build a jewish house. but the ottoman king told hertsill that the jews can keep their money for themselves and he won't give any part of his empire. even if he's torned to
6:39 pm
pieces. it was about. that time when nearly 25,000 jews moved to palestine, the venue of divine religions, as they didn't have any land or work, those men and women had gone to that land without the governor in the hope of finding the promised land. it's obvious that jews had nowhere to go,
6:40 pm
my father was not optimistic. about the wave of migration of the fellow jews to palestine, the burial place of prophet abraham. according to reports, until 1911, nearly 20,00 more immigrated to palestine, comprised about 7% of the people living in that land, but what's the point? our fellow jews driven from everywhere, possessed only 3% of the land in palestine, the... according to my father, it meant we were not accepted in that land either, but for my father's little golda, who has now learned some literacy in
6:41 pm
addition to working and could read newspaper, clippings and news, the situation had a different meaning. a year later in 1912, when i was about 14 years old, i ran away from my father's house in the us and went to another part of the country. have you ever had a dream to try hard in order to achieve it? it's obvious that leaving a humble house in the us for a girl from kieve. at the age of 14 is like jumping into hardships. at first, i got a train ticket to denver, colorado, and went to the house where shena and her husband, mr. corngold were living. in that house, we spent many evenings for our
6:42 pm
gatherings and discussions. that was the place that formed an important part of my future, where i met the designer maurice mayerson, the person who lived. became my first love and we even got married, yes, i went to denver so i could study faster and understand things faster, so it didn't take long for me to find the definitive path of my life. it only took three years for me to realize that i wanted to become a teacher. "i was still a teenager and i was considered an unofficial member, but i found continuation of my dream in a group that might be the first jewish labor party. in those days, i
6:43 pm
didn't even think that one day i would tell the jordaian king face to face, that we've been running and falling down and waiting for..." 2000 years, but that unofficial membership in the labor party was the beginning of my efforts with love. we did a lot of things in that party. back then, i was thinking exactly like the great austrian journalist theater hurzel, the founder of the jewish agency and the mastermind of the jewish sate manifesto. herzzel and his book for zionism for traditional is just. like judah hanasi and his book mishna, the first section of the talmut, in whatever society we were in, we tried with complete sincerity to
6:44 pm
integrate with that society in our social life and harmonize with them, and at the same time preserve the faith of our ancestors. but we were not allowed. over the next two years, about 20,0 more jews immigrated to palestine under the ottoman empire, and unfortunately, it's obvious that they still did not benefit from the lands and were considered guests. the unrecognized jews, while living on the outskirts of arab cities, continue to own city. and choose names for their cities, but only in their dreams. for example, in 1909, nahem sakalo
6:45 pm
used the name tel aviv instead of the promised land, in his translation of herzel's book, it meant the spring hill. for our dreams to come true, maybe we had to start with naming those dreams in all those years of displacement with dreamed about a land that could be called homeland. the population the jews that comprised 8% of the total population was one of the factors that helped england seriously intervene in ottoman affairs at the end of the first world war. taking advantage of the ottoman's weakness, britain divided the levant into the countries of jordan, lebanon, palestine and syria. may god. blessed the soul of churchill, he was the secret actor of that complicated story,
6:46 pm
and one of the few good children of jesus of nazareth. he spoke hundreds of times about britain's commitment to the jews and establishment of a jewish state. he negotiated with palestinian representatives many times and did not back down even inch. the cyx pico agreement in the 1919 paris peace negotiations the stage for the establishment of a state for the jews. however, archibald wavel, an officer under general alan b's orders sarcastically said the world war, which was supposed to be the war to end war. probably this peace will also be the peace to end peace, but two weeks
6:47 pm
before the beginning of the paris peace conference, the faceal white man agreement was signed. the agreement was one of the two documents that the zionist delegation used in the paris peace conference, and they believe that the zionists plans for palestine. the land of calvary and the crucified prophet had already been approved by the arabs. it is obvious that you have to be a little smart.
6:48 pm
the agreement was presented in english to fesal in his room at the carlton hotel in london on january the 3rd, 1919. however, fezel could not read it, and its contents were explained to him by lawrence, the only translator there. faisal signed the document at that meeting without consulting his advisors who were waiting for him in a separate room. although he added a note in arabic next to his signature, conditioning the agreement on considering palestine as an independent arab region, but the zionist organization presented the agreement to the paris peace conference without any notes or conditions. in order to preserve the unity of
6:49 pm
all the displaced jews, a little lie or two would not breach morality.
6:50 pm
five new territories, each of them were granted to one of the superpowers and palestine was britain's chair. britain's protectorate on the land caused the new wave of immigration to palestine, the venue of the exodus. the jews moved to arab cities, well, because the villages wouldn't accept them. the jewish settlements were gradually being formed. the support of wealthy jews along with the military forces of britain expedited things for the jews. "put yourself in my
6:51 pm
place. with the formation of new wave of immigration, could the young and inspirational golda mabovic get rid of the temptation of migrating to a land that had striking resemblance to the promised land? of course, i shouldn't have let go of my eternal dream amit the hardships. i should have ascended with the kite. the plane and followed my religious dreams. two years later in 1921, at the age of 23,
6:52 pm
that enthusiastic and young teacher. left the jewish labor party in the us and moved to palestine, the birthplace of abraham's descendants in the hope of fulfilling her ancient dream. during the peak of communism, jewish communities were also being formed in the occupied territories. the first caboots were formed by the efforts of the jews 10 years before i immigrated to palestine. these socialist villages were the ideal model of peaceful and blissful life in those days.
6:53 pm
everyone was working and everyone was getting the benefit, everyone as much as possible. i moved to kaboots and started new life there. the government was in control of britain, and the arabs expressed their protests to them more and more, but they wouldn't get any results. maybe it was for this reason that the first sparks of... arab militia groups were seen in palestine, the last place jesus lived in. in 1920, they launched the nabi musa riots, as if they wanted to say that our prophet is their prophet as well, but was it possible not to show any reaction in the face the what spread protest? it was in those...
6:54 pm
years when ghana was formed, a group whose name for me is synonymus with a great man named bengoran. hagana initially replaced the hashomer. organization to be the jewish police in the lands under the british protectorate and act against the growing arab movements, but gradually it grew taller and... a more significant position, obviously i didn't want to remain just socialist teacher and cook, so i became member of the hagana as well.
6:55 pm
between 1920 and 1923 i was a cook and teacher. i thought by joining the hagana i would also defend the safety of my terrorist caboots, but could the communal village of golda and her friends see itself excluded from the rest of the jews. who were exposed to dangers. at the same time, when the daughter of the mich family was looking their family photos, realized that the dispersion
6:56 pm
of jews was still the achilles hill for their survival. maybe they could all be gathered in palestine, the property of saint mary, but how many people could be housed in our cabuts? many jews in europe were still living in suffering, just like my sister and parents. i thought a place should be provided to invite all the afflicted jews. those years, things had changed, idealistic jews were coming to palestine, the heavenly land, not only from russia and eastern. europe, but also from germany and the us. it was obvious that the influx of incoming people to palestine, the can of endless romances was so
6:57 pm
massive that the arabs their best to stop the fourth wave of immigration with civil wars. what happened in 1929 and was called the al-bur upprising and blodshed culminated near the wailing wall. next to the only remaining wall of hamikdash harisan, the first holy place built by prophet solomon, the place where muslims claim their prophet ascended to heaven from there, and the laap of their prayers was initially there. they say this is the only open path to heaven and both christ and muhammad ascended to heaven through that way. in the fartest mosk, the al-ahsa mosk, which was built on the temple of solomon and
6:58 pm
next to the dome of the rock, the place of worship god, was drowned in blood. among the arabs, isadin al-ghassam had started strange and complicated establishment, small groups of five people plus a leader, none of the fighters knew each other, they only knew the leader of the group and isadin, wonderful cycle of intelligence and operations, he had started organizing and ideologically deepening his forces since many years ago, but in 1934 they made their military actions flick in the mountainous areas of northern palestine, actually they were giving us a hard time.
6:59 pm
of course, the hagana was not the only
7:00 pm
fighting force. in the war, finally, according to international law, the land separated from the ottoman empire was under the guidance and control of britain. they had to fulfill their main duty, namely establishing law and order in the land under their guardianship. well, it is obvious that the britains were in harmony with us. in this way, following this wave of jewish immigration and arab opposition, finally in
