[Ha'aretz] Yair Sheleg - Amia Lieblich, a professor emeritus of psychology at Hebrew University, tells the story of The Children of Kfar Etzion. During the War of Independence in 1948, Kibbutz Kfar Etzion's male population was killed almost in its entirety by the Jordanian Legion. Many of the men were slaughtered after they had surrendered. Since most of the children and all of the women had been evacuated from the kibbutz some months earlier, the tragedy of Kfar Etzion is also one of several dozen people whom the massacre turned into widows and orphans. Lieblich describes the annual memorial services and the observation, from a distance, of the village's lone oak tree, a focal point of longing. The book's second part is devoted to the great drama of the kibbutz's resettlement after the Six-Day War. Ten of the children of Kfar Etzion now live in the renewed kibbutz, and several others live nearby. 2007-05-04 01:00:00Full Article
