    A face-to-face battle in the Six Day War allowed the Israelite forces to enter Jerusalem from the south and conquer it

    Unfortunately, there isn't much to see at the site. The remains of the fortifications aren't easy to spot and the memorial site is quite small. It is too bad because this is an incredibly important historical site for the State of Israel. The fight over this area in 1948 and 1967 were pivotal to the new state's control (or lack of) over various parts of Jerusalem.

    I'm an American tourist and if I could I would go to every road, every street, every town, every museum, and every spot in all of Israel. And I never regret it. The signs here enlightened me to part of the war I did not know. And throughout Israel I see each group of Israelis in 1948 doing its share, more than its share, to bring victory, even though vastly outnumbered. While it would be nice if every historic place were very well maintained, that's difficult and it doesn't lessen things for me, as long as the signs are in English as well as Hebrew, or the phone tells me what happened, or I can look it up when I get back to my room. Plus here as I recall the big problem in 2018 was ruts between the parking lot and the monument, from buses, made when the ground was wet after heavy rain. It's not worth wasting a lot of water to make the ground so wet and then trying to roll the ground flat again. The ruts will go away with time, I think. -- BTW, my android phone made me sign up with gmail and all the normal names were taken. That's not my real name. -- BTW2, What does Hbamon mean? How is it spelled in Hebrew? in proper English? Google has no other reference to the word. -- I asked elsewhere and it should be HaPa'amon, the *Bell* Outpost.

    A beautiful place for sunrise over the mountains of Moab. The nearby olive grove is also charming and the story of Ramat Rachel and Sher Tzur Behar weaves in it all the elements of the story of this land.

    Strategic location, where the remains of the battle are still visible. Too bad you can't read much about what happened here
