Prime Minister Sharon said last night, \"Our War of Independence has not yet ended.\" Speaking at a memorial ceremony for soldiers of the Alexandroni Brigade who fought in the Latrun battle during the 1948 war, Sharon said, \"The past months prove to us that our struggle for our right to live on our land continues even today. Who would have believed, when we fought that terrible battle in Latrun to break the siege on Jerusalem, that now, 53 years later, we would still be fighting for Jerusalem, the capital of the Jewish Nation and of the State of Israel.\" Sharon himself fought in that battle, as did refugees from Europe who had just arrived in Israel days before.
