Why do so many Jews consider him a hero if he worked with Britain to prevent Jews from entering Eretz Yisrael?

I don't believe that there isn't anyone on this forum who knows this.

"Perfidy" by Ben Hecht, Z"L, documents the evils of Ben Gurion. He's an anti-hero, if not worse.

he still done much for Israel, you won't be elected for PM for nothing; Wait Smolmert was. ::)
Jeremiah 8:11-17

11 They dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious. Peace, peace, they say, when there is no peace.

12 Are they ashamed of their loathsome conduct? No, they have no shame at all; they do not even know how to blush. So they will fall among the fallen; they will be brought down when they are punished, says the LORD.

13 'I will take away their harvest, declares the LORD. There will be no grapes on the vine. There will be no figs on the tree, and their leaves will wither. What I have given them will be taken from them.'

14 Why are we sitting here? Gather together! Let us flee to the fortified cities and perish there! For the LORD our God has doomed us to perish and given us poisoned water to drink, because we have sinned against him.

15 We hoped for peace but no good has come, for a time of healing but there was only terror.

16 The snorting of the enemy's horses is heard from Dan; at the neighing of their stallions the whole land trembles. They have come to devour the land and everything in it, the city and all who live there.

17 See, I will send venomous snakes among you, vipers that cannot be charmed, and they will bite you, declares the LORD.

Love your Enemy
And Heap Burning Coals on his Head!!!

For all his many, many failings, at least Ben-Gurion drove out most of the Arabs from Israel during the war of independance and when he was Prime Minister.
