------------
Ze'ev Vladimir Jabotinsky (1880-1940) had distinguished himself while still a youth in his struggle on behalf of Jewish rights in czarist Russia. During the First World War, he, together with Joseph Trumpeldor, advocated the setting up of a Hebrew army. He enlisted in the "Royal Fusiliers" and with it he reached the Palestine front. During the riots in Jerusalem in 1920 he was the "Haganah" commander. Arrested, he was sentenced to fifteen years with hard labor. After receiving a pardon, he was elected to the Zionist Executive. Later he resigned because of his opposition to the Weizmann Pro-British policy and organized the "New Zionist Organization" based upon his own Revisionist movement. Within the Jewish communities in East Europe, he strongly advocated forsaking the Diaspora en masse and migrating to Palestine "illegally". As a commander of Betar, he prepared the youth belonging to his movement for war in Palestine. He died in New York in the midst of his travels in the United States where he urged the setting up of a Jewish army and the establishment of a Jewish state. In his will he requested that his remains be transferred to Palestine "but only upon orders from the government of the Jewish State which will surely come into being". His remains were transferred to Jerusalem in 1964 by order of Prime Minister Levi Eshkol and accorded a State funeral on Mount Herzl. Ze'ev Jabotinsky was a man of many talents; a gifted statesman, poet, writer, translator and orator. Ze'ev Jabotinsky died on 4 August 1940, while attending Camp Betar near New York. He was buried in New York in accordance with his will, in which he stated frat his remains not be transferred to Palestine "unless by order of that country's eventual Jewish government". In July 1964, this was ordered by Prime Minister Levi Eshkol and his remains were reburied on Mt. Herzl in Jerusalem.
The obverse depicts a sculpted portrait of Ze'ev Jabotinsky, with his signature below in Hebrew and English. To the right, along the circumference, are the years "1880-1940 and 5641-5700.
On the reverse appear three words taken from Jabotinsky's book "Samson": "Iron King Laugh" in Hebrew. To the right, is the inscription "Ze'ev Jabotinsky 50th Anniversary of death" in Hebrew, and below the year of issue "1990 / 5750".
According to IGCMC records, this medal was issued in 1991, rather than 1990, approximately one year too late. As we cannot verify which is correct, and trusting that the IGCMC people would not goof big time on commemorating the 50th Anniversary of Ze'ev Jabotinsky's death in June 1940, we list this medal accordingly: released in 1990.
