    Sorry if you already received this on the Jewish-Music (at) shamash 
newsgroup --
    but if anyone can help with this, I will greatly appreciate it!
    
    I am trying to find some background information on the song "Kachol 
v'Lavan" ,
    the song about the Israeli flag. Who wrote it, and in what circumstances was
    it written? I seem to recall having heard something about a Russian 
refusenik
    who composed it using all the Hebrew vocabulary he was able to muster. Is 
this
    a factual account? I would appreciate any details, including the name of the
    composer/lyricist (assuming they are one and the same).
    
    Todah Raba and Shabbat Shalom,
