For many Jews, the events of World War II underscored the need for a safe haven for Jews, so that they would never again be without a place to flee from anti-Semitism in the Diaspora. Consequently, the State of Israel was founded in 1948, just three years after World War II ended....they had nowhere else to go... LMAO The Zionist movement began in the late 1800's. Three years after WWII? We had already defeated the Nazi's. They could have went anywhere! Most did in fact, and didn't participate in the theft of Palestianian lands, or the terror demonstrated on the Arabs. |

Begin was a member of Irgun, another terrorist organization. He too was labeled a terrorist!
Begin, in the period of his life dedicated to guerrilla activities, was affiliated with an organization called the Irgun Zvai Leumi (National Military Organization), which he led from 1944 until 1948. Revisionist Zionists who believed that a militant attitude and terrorist activities were legitimate ways to achieve their political objectives founded the Irgun in 1931. They may be seen in much the same light as other groups who have used terrorist tactics to oust a foreign occupier. Begin arrived in Palestine in 1943 as a member of the Polish army and a newcomer to the Irgun, which had been leaderless for nearly a year. At the end of the year, Begin was selected to be the organization's Commander. His first decision was to declare armed struggle against the British Mandatory government. The revolt began on February 1, 1944, when the Irgun posted copies of its declaration of revolt on Jerusalem walls. Activities of the Irgun against the British came to an end when the acting leadership of the Yishuv opened a "hunting season" on its members. Many were arrested, detained and some were deported to Africa for detention. In 1945, the Haganah, the Irgun and another organization committed to terrorist tactics, the Stern Gang (Lehi), joined forces in military struggle against the British. http://terrorism.about.com/od/groupsleader1/p/MenachemBegin.htm |
