When Egyptian President Anwar Sadat touched down at Ben-Gurion Airport on November 19, 1977, the whole world was watching. His visit to Israel, the first of its kind by an Arab head of state, was a game-changer: A harbinger of what Shimon Peres would later call “the new Middle East.”

Sadat’s arrival mesmerized Israel. Thousands of awestruck Israelis lined the route of his motorcade to catch a glimpse of the man who, just four years earlier, had been their sworn enemy. Those not gathering in the streets were glued to their television screens, ecstatically following the wall-to-wall coverage.

On March 26, 1979, Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, and United States President Jimmy Carter signed the Peace Accord. The photos from the event became the symbol of the agreement that changed the face of the Middle East.

The historic celebratory gathering on the White House lawn, in front of an enthusiastic crowd and broadcast live to millions of viewers around the world, did not even remotely hint at the great drama that had unfolded in the months preceding it. Throughout these months, those involved in the negotiation process encountered numerous bumps and obstacles, at times evoking a sense that the process was on the brink of collapse, along with all hopes for peace.

All of these challenges led President Carter to release a deep sigh of relief at the successful culmination of the process and to remark, ‘What we have achieved so far is nothing short of a miracle… God’s hand was involved in what has been accomplished thus far.

Rare Poster advertisement for the International Festival On Ice that was part of the Near East Exhibition and Fair (the famous Levant Fair) which took place in Tel Aviv.

By 1932, the Near East Fair, which had been held several times since 1923, was formally named the Levant Fair. An international trade and commerce show, it highlighted Jewish Palestine’s economic success and was intended to help cement Tel Aviv as an international city at the crossroads between the East and the West. The architect Arieh El-Hanani designed the “Flying Camel” as a logo for the fair, representing the connection between the East and West, and no doubt making a connection to the winged helmet of Mercury, God of Commerce

Oded Burla [1915-2009] was an Israeli illustrator, writer, poet, and artist. He is considered one of the founders of children’s literature in Hebrew. In 2008, Burla was awarded the Bialik Prize for literature
