Yaacov Kopul Rosen (1913–1962)[1] was an anglo-Jewish rabbi and educationalist who, in 1946, testified before the Anglo-American Commission of Inquiry on Palestine, asking them not to "play politics with the remnants of the Jewish people."[2] A book titled Memories of Kopul Rosen was published in 1970.[3]
