  Tel Hai
Although Tel Hai had organized defenses, its defenders were no match for the Arab attackers.
Because of Tel Hai - along with Metulla and Kfar Giladi - the northern Galilee was included in the British Mandate over Palestine and, consequently, in the State of Israel that resulted from the Mandate.
Tel Hai is thus significant both because it helped to make the northern Galilee part of the State of Israel and because of the 1920 battle, which was the first time that the Zionist Jewish community in Palestine resisted an organized Arab attack.

 Review
In 1920, a year after his return to Palestine, Trumpeldor was mortally wounded while defending the outposts at Tel Hai, a commemorative "holy place." Along with five of his comrades, he was buried near Tel Hai.
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.
The remembrance of Trumpeldor's death at Tel Hai, argues Zertal, marked the beginning of a cult of death among Israeli Jews.
