I have just come across some fascinating mini documentaries about Israel, from British Pathe.
I hope you enjoy these as much as I did.
Note: The following was filmed only days before the Six Day War.

Thank you so much for posting these wonderful videos. The British voice over, the music, the scenes have the appearance of a travelogue. Woman reading Exodus by the pool.
I love the voiceovers in old documentaries ans news clips from the 30s-60s. I’m sure it has to do with the recording equipment but there is such a unique sound to them.
With so many documentary series on World War II showing on American television, we need at least one series on Israel’s War of Independence, from the aftermath of World War II to the 1949 armistices, as the events then have a major bearing on what is taking place now.
There is a YouTube channel called something like IsraelDocumentaries (I can’t recall the exact name) but it is full of good documentaries from various UK and US TV shows that cover almost anything you can think of from Israel’s history.

My ancestral homeland. My people, my history, my blood, my pride. What a miracle you are.
Interesting thanks
