History

The village was founded in 1949 by demobilised soldiers and was named in memory of the seven Notrim who were killed near Yazur on 22 January 1948.

Mishmar HaShiv'a was established on land which had belonged to the Palestinian village of Bayt Dajan, which became depopulated in the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.[2]

gollark: iPhones are quite expensive, so if you value your time at $50/hour (this might be low, I'm not really sure), it would probably take a few years for the iPhone to pay off, but it could actually come out in favour if it does in fact save that much time.
gollark: I don't get anything like that on my *£120* Android phone from recently, except in Discord, in which the keyboard is occasionally ridiculously laggy due to what I assume is bad design on their end.
gollark: (very fermi estimation, but it's probably not THAT many orders of magnitude out)
gollark: If we assume you open the keyboard, I don't know, 50 times a day, and it takes 0.5 seconds each time, this is 25 seconds a day, or 144 days for it to cost an hour of time.
gollark: This seems dubious, even if we ignore the implication that there aren't reasonably fast Android phones.
