EDGE has posted 5 new videos on our website www.edgemn.org from Toldot Yisrael (Toldot Yisrael is a Jerusalem-based nonprofit dedicated to recording and sharing the firsthand testimonies of the men and women who helped found the State of Israel. Over 600 video interviews have been conducted with those who were involved in the pre-State struggle and the momentous events of 1948. Our aim is to conduct hundreds more over the next several years while it is still possible. The Toldot Yisrael archive is housed in Israel's National Library, the official library of the State of Israel and the Jewish people. The Eyewitness 1948 films present stories that address the heroism of the era as well as the complex moral dilemmas confronted by a young nation battling for its existence. Toldot Yisraels footage serves as primary-source materials for educational curricula that bring to life the founding of the State of Israel for today's young Jews.).
