The Jerusalem Post: In 1963, Zion Hasid realized he could no longer stay in Iran.
“Some friends and I, all Jews, went to a different town to do some trading,” he explains in his Jerusalem office. “It was the time of the Jewish New Year so we took the bus to the seaside, sang a few songs, and wanted to return to where we were staying. Unfortunately we missed the last bus back and there were no taxis. We hired someone who had a car to drive us and he crashed the car. Thank God, no one was killed.” >>>
