(The Israel Connexion) – Approaching Yom Kippur we remember the war that caught Israel by surprise 50 years ago. I spoke with Maj Gen (res) Gershon Hacohen, who wrote an article ‘The Yom Kippur War: Much More than an Intelligence Failure’ in which he discusses and reflects on the war’s significance in Israel’s history. (0:36-34:33)
Gili Meisler, the brother of Giora, the most talked about Israeli soldier of the Yom Kippur war, who disappeared “missing in action”, has been searching for him and for himself ever since. In this special interview Gili, who is a protagonist for the Parents Circle Family Forum, allowed me to record his story and tell how it has had such a profound influence on him. (34:39-56:32)
