BEN-GURION accomplished the “Zionist” dream of a normal State for the Jews who constantly had become scapegoats in their various countries of adoption. With an exceptional energy and great talent for languages, traveling, lectures, publishing in newspapers, he mobilized without rest and developed socio-economic, political and military institutions to transform desert in farmlands with high productivity. He recruits and installs several waves of Jewish immigrants to Palestine. He became the Prime Minister of the new State of Israel and developed means for coexistence of an Israeli state and a Palestinian state, and harmony in the Middle East Region. But the very day of the State of Israel proclamation, Arab neighbors declared war.
