"...42 homemade Stens...
1:30:04
"...one machine gun and one mortar...
1:30:06
"...plus handmade grenades.
1:30:08
"We still hold the center of the city...
1:30:12
"...but we're heavily outnumbered."
1:30:16
-Ari, how are you?
-I'm fine.

1:30:19
-How many guns have you got?
-Eight.

1:30:21
And about 180 Molotovs.
The British confiscated the rest.

1:30:24
I know. I heard.
1:30:25
Jordana went to Fort Esther
to try to get them back.

1:30:28
There's a detachment of Palmachs on the way.
1:30:30
But the Jerusalem road has been cut
in a dozen places.

1:30:33
I sneaked ahead to let you know.
1:30:36
The order is for every kibbutz and moshav
and village to fight to the end.

1:30:39
Nothing's to be surrendered.
1:30:45
-Is the transmitter working?
-Yes.

1:30:47
Then send this:
1:30:50
"Gan Dafna expects an attack in force
by tomorrow night.

1:30:54
"lf the Palmach is on the
way, tell them to hurry.

1:30:57
"We have 300 children here and eight guns."
1:30:59
That's all.
1:31:01
Keep on sending that.
1:31:07
The commander refuses to return our weapons.
1:31:10
He said it would only provoke violence.
1:31:12
And he won't interfere in local problems,
except to punish troublemakers.

1:31:16
I suppose that means us,
if we try to defend ourselves.

1:31:19
They must know that
the whole border's alive with armed Arabs.

1:31:24
I think the Mufti's men have
taken over Abu Yesha.

1:31:28
Taha warned us to evacuate here
before midnight tomorrow.

1:31:35
How many children do we have here under 13?
1:31:38
About 150.
1:31:41
We'll have to get them
to Beth Amal tonight...

1:31:44
...and secretly, so the Arabs don't know.
1:31:46
We'll go around the valley
instead of through it.

1:31:48
That's near the border, but we must risk it.
1:31:50
We'll go through Ein Or
and down the other side of Mount Tabor.

1:31:55
You can't go down the other side of Tabor
in daytime, much less at night.

1:31:58
You'll kill half of them.
