Belarus SIG #Belarus The role of Belarusian Jews in creating the state of Israel #belarus

To Dr. Ioffe's article I would add Abraham Menachem Mendel Ussishkin
[1863-1941], one of the leaders of the First Zionist Congress in 1893
and president of the Jewish National Fund >from 1917 until his death.
He was born in Dubrovno, a little town southeast of Vitebsk. The
name Ussishkin derives >from the Usisa River that flows through the
town of Gorodok north of Vitebsk and into the Obol River.

There is interesting article of Dr. Ioffe >from Minsk:
"The role of Belarusian Jews in creating the state of Israel"
http://www.open.by/belarus-now/cont/1998/0512/politics/4.html

The list is not complete. I can attach some persons, as Moshe Sharet
(Chertok) and
Even Shushan.

Best,
Dr. Albert Kaganovitch,
