History Biography

Hanan Porat became the leader and symbol of the settler movement in winter, 1975. 
He was carried on the shoulders of dozens of men in Sebastia, in the heart of Samaria, after Rabin’s government authorized the establishment of a settlement in Elon Moreh, caving to the pressure of the settlers, led by Porat. 
history changed: in 2025, around half a million Jews live in dozens of settlements throughout the West Bank.

In winter 2010, Hanan is diagnosed with cancer. He knew his days are numbered and set out on a journey through the key stations in his life. Hanan Porat: Settled in Faith is a historical document, personal and national. It presents the soul searching of Porat and of the entire Gush Emunim movement: was it a right choice to dedicate his life to public activity instead of Torah study and spirituality? Did the political path which he chose prove itself? What was the price exacted by the settlement enterprise? Will the destruction of the Jewish settlements in Gaza be repeated in the West Bank?
