Ben Reuven's visit to Bibi's office and the special song he sang to him

Hello all,
I would like to introduce you to Ben Reuven. He is a famous song writer and appear on Israel's song contest Kohav Nolad.
He was invited to appear before Bibi to sing a special song he wrote on Yoni, his heroic brother that died at Entebbe rescuring the Jews being held hostage at the airport.

Here is an introduction from Ben Reuven:

A SPECIAL SONG PRIME MINISTER NETANYAHU
In these pictures you see Prime Minister Netanyahu standing in his office with the Jerusalem singer-songwriter Ben Reuven who was invited to come on Sunday April 14, the Memorial Day for Israel's Fallen Soldiers, to personally sing his song tribute to the Prime Minister's brother Yonatan (Yoni) who fell heroically when leading the amazing 1976 Entebbe rescue operation to free the Israeli hostages. Ben Reuven wrote this song in 1976  and it was recorded on a disc by the popular Black Diamond Trio. Since then it was hardly ever played and Ben Reuven had never sung it in public until this week. The Prime Minister was deeply moved by the song and singing and thanked Ben Reuven warmly and Ben Reuven gave him the original record and was also deeply moved by the occasion and by actually meeting Bibi and shaking hands with him in his office.
Pictured here is Ben Reuven showing The Prime Minister the song he wrote about Yoni.
Now, you see Ben Reuven singing the song to The Primister and Bibi is following along to it.


Pictured here is the lyrics to the song and the words so you can sing along with Ben Reuven
And here is Yoni. He was a very special hero to all of us for what he did and died for rescuing his people from danger. He served his family and his country well. May Yoni rest in peace.
