翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Davidka ： ウィキペディア英語版 Davidka The Davidka ((イディッシュ語:דוידקה), ''"Little David"'') was a homemade Israeli mortar used in Safed and Jerusalem during the early stages of the 1948 Israeli War of Independence. Its bombs were reported to be extremely loud, but very inaccurate and otherwise of little value beyond terrifying opponents; they proved particularly useful in scaring away both Arab soldiers and civilians. It is nominally classified as a 3-inch (76.2 mm) mortar, although the bomb was considerably larger.〔 〕〔 〕 ==Etymology== The Davidka ("Little David") was named for its inventor, David Leibowitch, although the name also metaphorically evoked the biblical battle of King David and Goliath (I Samuel chap. 17): In 1948, the defense forces of the state of Israel felt themselves fighting against the "giant" British-trained and British-led 〔Dupuy, Trevor N, Elusive Victory, The Arab-Israeli Wars, 1947–1974, Hero (1984)〕 professional Arab Legion, amongst many others,〔The poorly trained and equipped Israelis were fighting against the armies of 7 Arab nations Egypt, Iraq, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Transjordan, and Yemen as well as thousands of irregulars organized as other "armies."〕 and so they felt the metaphor appropriate. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Davidka」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
