Sheetrit was referring, of course, to the dying words of the Zionist pioneer Joseph Trumpeldor, whose life and death became a symbol for the heroism of the Zionist movement.
In downplaying the Trumpeldor ethos, however, Sheetrit is far from alone: Similar declarations are often made by Israeli public figures, artists, and writers, and it is safe to assume that they reflect an attitude widely held in Israeli society today.
Trumpeldor’s dying words, for example, were in fact merely a rewording of a famous epigram by the Roman poet Horace.

 Israel Palestine Forum - Israel's Culture of Martyrdom
The central chapter in the construction of Israeli martyrology was, of course, the Holocaust, but it began well before, according to Zertal, who traces it to the cult surrounding Joseph Trumpeldor, the first hero of the Jews who settled in Palestine."Never mind dying," Trumpeldor is reported to have said shortly before his death in 1920.
In 1934 a memorial was erected at his gravesite, and it soon became, for Zionist youth movements, a place of pilgrimage nearly as important as Masada, where, according to the Zionist interpretation of Flavius Josephus, Jewish rebels committed mass suicide rather than surrender to the Romans in AD 73.
