This is absolutely amazing COLOR footage of Israel right before and right after independence. It was recently discovered in a private home in Boston.

 I lived in Jerusalem from 1939 to 1958.  This is an amazing find.  Brought back memories and tears to my eyes.

Incredible. Can someone please tell me where to find a full edition of this footage? Inspired.

Would that I could. All I got was a black screen for 7 minutes and a little circle in the middle going round and round. Alas . . .

 Just missing the videos of the 725.000 palestinians who were expelled or had to flee from their homes. Just missing that little detail in the happy music-dance party.

Umm, do I have to remind you that if the Arab side hadn't rejected partition and started a war with the open intent of ethnic cleansing or worse, those Palestinians would never have had to leave?
