Trauer um Rehavam Amikam Ze'evi "Ghandi"
Seine Biographie...
| The Man Who Loved Eretz Yisrael |
| Rehavam Amikam Ze'evi was born in Jerusalem in
1926; he was a sixth-generation Jerusalemite on his mother's side. He and
his wife Yael, of Kibbutz Deganiah Bet, had five children, 19 grandchildren,
and one great-grandchild. His five children all had names with modern
Jewish-historic significance: Yiftach Palmach, Sayar Binyamin, Massada,
Tse'elah, and Aravah. Ze'evi joined the Palmach, an elite unit of the Haganah forerunner of the Israel Defense Forces, in 1944. Five months ago, he organized a "birthday party" for the Palmach, and said, "The Palmach was an army of barefooted, and happy soldiers who made do with little. Their weapons were few and their salaries were close to zero, but they never complained or moaned and instead carried their nation with high morale and a sense of mission. The Palmach was an army that looked for and suggested missions, and never said something was impossible. The Palmach was a fighting framework of morals and ethics, that made a covenant of "the cornstalks and the sword" with the settlement enterprise that viewed it as a Zionist and security value. The Palmach also engaged in intelligence missions and others on behalf of the Jewish nation. The Palmach was a school for the knowledge and love of the Land of Israel." Ze'evi served in the IDF with its founding in 1948 in many positions, including heading the Central Command beginning in 1968. He retired from the army with the rank of Maj.-Gen, and was appointed to be Prime Minister Rabin's advisor on terrorism and intelligence in 1974. He also carried out many defense missions in various countries, and was elected to the Knesset in 1988 as head of the Moledet Party that he founded. He served as minister without portfolio in the Shamir government for about a year in the early 90's, and became Tourism Minister under the Sharon government. Former President Weizman said today that although he and Ze'evi differed in their political outlooks, "he was a very good friend of mine ever since 1948, and he was my aide during the Six-Day War [when Weizman served as Chief of Operations of the General Staff]. There was no occasion on which we met that we didn't embrace each other. He was an outstanding general, well-organized and worked zealously to achieve his goals." When asked about his lack of a bodyguard, Ze'evi would often say that he was his own bodyguard. Sometimes he answered, "All of Eretz Yisrael is mine, I will not accept any restrictions." When his name was included among the list of Israeli leaders slated for assassination by Arab terrorists, he said, "I see that I am in good company, with the Chief of Staff and others, and this makes me happy." Asked if he was scared, he said, "Me?! Do I look like someone who is scared?" The name Gandhi was given him when, as a slim youth, he masqueraded one Purim with a long white toga and glasses, looking like the Indian leader Gandhi. He was known to always wear a dog tag with the names of the missing Israeli soldiers. He put on tefillin every day, saying that this connected him to Jewish tradition. Rehavam Ze'evi was also a member of Board of Directors of the Eretz Yisrael Museum in Tel Aviv, edited many books published by the museum and the Defense Ministry, and graduated the USA Army Command & General Staff College. He was the 188th victim of what he often called the Oslo War. |

Sollt' ich dich vergessen, Jeruschalajim, so versage meine Rechte!
Kleben soll meine Zunge mir am Gaumen, so ich dein nicht gedenke,
so ich nicht erhebe Jeruschalajim auf den Gipfel meiner Freude.
