NAME THAT ISRAELI

This Jew died in 1923, so strictly speaking he was not an Israeli; however, he was instrumental in the eventual establishment of Israel. On hearing Theodore Herzl’s plans for creating a Jewish state, he is said to have declared, “If you are insane, we are insane together. Count on me!” Herzl and he are credited with founding the modern Zionist movement. A thoroughfare in Tel Aviv is named after him.

Can you name him?
