Yitzhak Arad - legendary Soviet partisan of World War II, Brigadier General of the Israel Defense Forces, head of the Yad Vashem memorial for 20 years, writer, soldier, thinker... The book “Partisan” was mainly written “hot on the heels” , a young fighter of the young State. Published in English in the 70s, the book echoed alarmingly in the 2000s. Then the new Lithuanian authorities tried to try Yitzhak Arad for “genocide of the Lithuanian people.” This is what they called acts of retribution, when young men and women who miraculously escaped from the ghetto, who saw the destruction of their loved ones, took revenge on the executioners of their people... With the end of the Second World War, Isaac Arad did not end, he took part in all the wars in which Israel defended the right to be its own state people. “And it is my duty to tell the younger generation about the events that took place before my eyes, and the people who participated in them. For the younger generation this is history, for me it is reality. Everything told in this book is only a small part of the fateful events in the history of our people, but the present is built on the foundation of the past, and the younger generation must know it for the sake of the future.”
