Silent Hero

He was born in a tent in the Negev, to a burden that was his from that moment or even before. Perched on his Grandmothers knee she told him the story of her plight. He asked to hear it over and over again as if it were a fairytale. It became imbedded in his conciousness. As he grew, so did the fire that raged within and his determination to right the wrong. At the age of fourteen, he began to train himself for the job ahead and swore an oath: "NEVER AGAIN WILL THERE BE SLAUGHTER FOR BEING A JEW." And then he did what he had to do.
