95-year-old reservist joins Israel’s fight against Hamas terrorists
Ezra Yachin served as a combat soldier with Lehi — an underground paramilitary group active during British rule — who fought against the British and the Arabs to create a Jewish homeland.He has now been called back up “to motivate the IDF troops and to recount how he survived Arab pogroms in Jerusalem during his childhood,” according to Israel National News, which shared a photo of the elderly man in his old uniform holding a rifle.
Yachin is being celebrated as a hero for his efforts, with Israeli media personality Hananya Naftali tweeting that his message is, “Don’t give up, not even now.”
Who are Lehi? With the way the media frames them you’d think they were freedom fighters. No, they were Terrorists who massacred the Palestinian village of Deir Yassin. Yet they claim he fought “against” the Arabs, when in reality they were the violent terrorists.
