The following picture was taken in 1980, at the 70th birthday party of Dr. Israel Eldad (who appears at the lower right-hand corner):-
I am in the picture, too, along with people who, unlike me, were members of Lechi including Eliezer ben-Ami, who fashioned the handgrenades hidden in oranges for Feinstein and Barzani, Ezra "Elnakam", Danny "Beit-Hamikdash" Shohami and others.
I give up, the obivious is its you in the centre, but something tells me its actually the guy to the left of the centre with the enormous 80's collar/ Which one is it Yisrael?
American born, my wife and I moved to Israel in 1970. We have lived at Shiloh together with our family since 1981. I was in the Betar youth movement in the US and UK. I have worked as a political aide to Members of Knesset and a Minister during 1981-1994, lectured at the Academy for National Studies 1977-1994, was director of Israel's Media Watch 1995-2000 and currently, I work at the Menachem Begin Heritage Center in Jerusalem. I was a guest media columnist on media affairs for The Jerusalem Post, op-ed contributor to various journals and for six years had a weekly media show on Arutz 7 radio. I serve as an unofficial spokesperson for the Jewish Communities in Judea & Samaria.

Eldad and Medad? That is pretty cool!
And where do you think I got the inspiration for my chosen Hebraized name? It was back in 1964 and in my autobiography, someday, it will be retold.
Ezra "Elnaqam" Yakhin is a great speaker an author. I read "Elnakam" and "Yibane" and I recommend them both.

I am in the back row, second from left with, yes, the large 80s collar. Elnakam is just to my left - your right. Tuviah is below me.
I'll put up soon some pics I took at the book launching for the 4 volumes of the collected works of Shabtai Ben-Dov. (Who? did I hear you all say?)
