Of course violence has to be the last option, or sometimes not even an option. But time has change and I don't think that question can be applied to the years of the ww2 and the years prior the independence of Israel. Think about it, during the Holocaust we had the Partisans. They choose violence methods in order to rescue, defende and protect Jews. Something needed to be done, we couldn't just sit and wait for something to happen, we needed to take actions and do something about our brothers being murdered for nothing. Now in this case, the three underground armies were created for that purpose. To protect and defend Jews but also to fight, to fight to have our home back, 'to be a free people in our land' just like the Hatikvah, Israel's national anthem says. The hope of more than two thousands years to live in the land of Zion and Jerusalem under hebrew's rule and not under a foreign country rule, in this case the British rule. We had this dream even before of the Holocaust and we were moving slowly towards that dream, until the Holocaust happened and we needed urgently a home a place of our own to live without fear. These three underground armies had its differences, but focusing on the Irgun and Lechi they used violence. But that was because we didn't had any other choice! Diplomacy wouldn't do anything to help the Jewish have their, our, own country ! It was enough! We couldn't just sit and wait for the next meeting with British officers, we needed to take matters on our own hands. The yearning for Eretz Israel was among all these members of the underground armies, they knew the dangers of it all but there's a time when you realize that hey, 'my brothers are being killed not just in Europe but in Israel (or British Mandate). We cannot wait for something to change. We need to fight for ourselves, for our country for a place for us' and that's what they did. In that time at that moment ' violence ', actions is what it was needed in order to fight for our home. So in that moment it was the right thing to do. Just like the Partisans did to protect and defend Jews. In the end, it's not a coincidence that the British Mandate wrote the white paper, they in fact did had conversations with Hitler, they knew what was happening in Europe and decided still to limit the acces of Jews in Israel. So diplomacy, talking and meeting with the British who wanted to control the Jewish quantity in Israel (and they did everything in their power to achieve that, including sending back the boats full of Jews back to Europe knowing what their fate would be with the nazis over there) was off limits, and without any good outcome for us. They, the three armies, may had many differences, but refering to the Irgun and Lechi they did EVERYTHING in their powers to avoid more Jewish deaths by fighting with their own life at all costs to free our country of the British Mandate so what's says in our anthem becomes a reality 'free people in our land'.
Of course. The British were given a mandate to help forge an independent Israel by the league of nations in the twenties. The British lied and instead they turned eretz Israel into a British colony. Had the Jewish underground not fought against the British there would have been no Israel. The irgun did exactly what the ira did in Ireland, the vietcong did in Vietnam and the fln did in algeria :they fought for their nation's independence from a foreign colonial power. While the haganah was appeasing the British and handing over Jewish fighters to Britain. They followed in the example of Simon bar kochba who fought the Romans 1,800 years ago. You might think them controversial but they're heroes in my book. There are a lot inaccuracies in you video. The irgun did not fight fellow jews. In fact when the haganah was turning over Jewish fighter to the British the irgun gave orders not to retaliate in order not to cause a civil war, which according to the Jewish virtual library, brought the irgun national sympathy for their cause. During ww2 the irgun did not fight the British. The stopped their campaign against the British to help the fight against Hitler. And how did they repay them? By arresting and deporting thousands of jews to Cyprus in concentration camps, executing Jewish fighters, detaining jews without trial, stirring up arab Jewish tensions (divide and rule) etc. People seem to have forgotten that the Arab invasion of Israel in 1948 was supported by the British with money and arms. They even plotted to divide eretz Israel between the conquering Arab armies, with them keeping Haifa. They desperately (UK) wanted to keep Haifa and israel under the British influence to ensure that they would remain in the middle east forever. Given the British betrayal and hostility the irgun did the logical thing and fought a guerrillas war against the British imperialists while making all efforts to minimize civilian casualties. Your trying to paint them as extremists and terrorists is frankly, disingenuous.
@@joshuacondell1686 Zionism is an arbritary movement. Jews were able to seek haven in the Ottoman empire during the WWs. All of the extra bloodshed caused there by Jewish militias was not necessary.

A second faction that rivaled us didin't help with our opposition to the British colonists.
@@nizarshawwa3704 of course it was necessary. Was the ira justified in fighting uk? was the fln justified in fighting france? And no, zionism is a jewish nationalist movement that sought and fought for the liberation of eretz israel from foreign rule and the national independence and unity of the Jewish people after two thousands years of conquest, foreign rule,and exile (loss of jewish independence).they sought and gained national liberation just as the serbs, romanians, arabs, and other peoples of the ottoman empire did in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Pls do your homework and come back.
Irgun, Lehi, and Haganah were paramilitary terrrorist groups. They became those political parties and the fascism roll continued when they became the IDF in 1948. Two of their sociopath commanders became Prime Ministers.
Correct, this channel is soft propaganda to normalize the occupation! They mention all details, filter some information and then conclude yeah it is the only way for Israel's security so they are right. Yeah, what about the security of Palestinians who they humiliate, beat and kill almost everyday!
100% this is scripted propaganda The terror caused by the jewish terrorists was enough to drive out an Empire Now were just left with revenge genociding against the wrong people
This is revisionist rationalization nonsense to dissipate anyone finding out who these organizations really were and all the barbaric atrocities they committed over decades. They were officially declared terrorist organizations by both the US and Britain. They all 3 worked together and murdered tens of thousands, wiped out entire christian and Arab villages. Two of their depraved sociopath commanders became Prime Ministers. In 1947, they worked together to blow up the King David Hotel, the headquarters of the British Mandate, to eliminate evidence the British obtained in a raid proving they worked hand in hand with the local Jewish leaders and Jewish League picking and planning terrorism attacks. The Jewish League and other leadership officially denied them, even though two commanders immediately became early Prime Ministers. They didn't disband, they morphed into the new terrorist organization as the IDF in 1948 and immediately went on an ethnic cleansing murder spree known as the Nakba. They haven't changed tactics or gained any morals in the decades since. Irgun was officially formed in 1928. But there were unofficial paramilitary terrorists for decades before that. Recruited and trained cult fanatics were sent into the Ottoman Empire in the 1870's with a long term goal of taking over the region and land jews had no claim to and had only had a tiny fractional presence in for 2000 years. Originally the Ottomans allowed foreign land purchases, but moved to stop that once they realized what was happening and as the body count kept mounting The terror and murder seriously accelerated after WWI and the fall of the Ottoman Empire. Lehi even went to Hitler and proposed being allies three times during WWII and the holocaust because the main goal at the time was forcing the British out of Palestine.
@@serdirtbagoftheleft4045 Deir Yassin happened in the middle of a war and was the only event of similar nature against Arabs that happened in that war. King David bombing (not Solomon) was indeed a terrorist attack. The Etzel and Lehi said they notified the hotel before the explosion of a bomb. The British said they never got a call. Nevertheless Etzel and especially Hagana used sabotage and avoided killing without being shot on first. Lehi was indeed a terrorist organisation.
I wouldn’t call a group of people responsible for bombing a hotel that killed almost a hundred people, gunning down people in Arab markets, or detonating other bombs in civilian areas, attacking local police stations, and kidnapping government officials, as a “defense force”.
it would be interesting to mention how they massacred Palestinian villages. They were terrorist organizations, not "illegal militias" and no it is not badass, it is terrorism
Can you name some in which the Hagana was involved? I'm not trying to make a point or dispute what you are saying, Ik about Deir Yasin, ik that the Irgun had in mind to ethnically cleanse everyone, what about the Hagana? I have no evidence about them. I looked in wikipedia and found nothing(ik wikipedia is allot of propaganda)
….its funny how you conveniently forget the mention that Jewish settlements in 1920’s all the way to the mid 40’s fell victim to horrible massacres and “riots” perpetrated by Palestinian Arabs who wished to rid Mandatory Palestine of the few Jews living in the country. That’s kinda why the Haganah was created-to defend the Jewish settlements from Arab and British aggression. The other militia organizations were borne out a desire to commit fully to offensive military action as opposed to defensive. In other words, the other militias wished to destroy the enemies of Israel without mercy. I wouldn’t dare say that they did not commit horrible atrocities, but that wouldn’t make them “terror organizations.” Just as the U.S military’s innumerable atrocities don’t make the entity a terrorist ministry.
@@Kingrich_777 so you have Zionist leaders and the British colonizers making deals in Europe to hand off an already stolen country. They begin to put up settlements and you don’t expect revolt. This idea that it’s fine to go ahead and start a new country on the grave of another is pretty insane. The idea that the land isn’t supposed to belong to any one religion is the only way it works. You can’t make deals with the colonizer to take over and bring in people from another continent and expect nothing to happen. Doesn’t matter because the British made sure Zionists had all the weapons and Palestinians had none. It’s sad that we couldn’t of had one nation with all three religions today regardless of the name. But you can’t colonize and oppress people and do whatever you want because some book you wrote thousands of years ago tells you that you are special. It’s insanely narcissistic.
@@Kingrich_777These groups terrorised and bombed British institutions including the Embassy in Rome. So Arabs were supposed to watch the unfettered arrival of Jewish settlements. They were NEVER interested in sharing the land with the Arabs and they murdered in cold blood. They assassinated a Swedish Count that was just trying to negotiate a peace. Their name literally means "only by the gun". They believed in "aggressive defence" i.e the best form of defence is attack. Greater Israel was always the plan. Then these guys were absorbed into the IDF and some of these terrorists became heads of state of Israel.
@@Kingrich_777They were SELF CONFESSED TERRORISTS. What are you talking about? Because they aren't f@cking Arabs??? They used violence to achieve political ends. There was no line they did not cross but you wouldn't call them terrorists. That's disgusting.
@abcd adsdfsdf all groups have done bad. I personally prefer the Etzel for multiple reasons but I won't deny the contribution of the Hagana to the settlement.
fun fact! the irgun is actually a false translation, the word irgun in hebrew just means "organisation" the organisation was actually called the etzel, an acronym for "military national organisation" in hebrew

@@Kingrich_777how conveniently we forget that Lehi tried to form an alliance twice with Hitler because they believed the UK was the greater enemy. By the IDF’s definition, the Palestinians are terrorists becuase they blow up stuff. News flash, Lehi blew up stuff in Mandate of Palestine, Lebanon, even blew up Jews in Iraq. They massacred innocent civilians including women and children. Also they referred to their members as… terrorists. They blow stuff up, kill unarm civilians, try to make alliances with Hitler and they call themselves terrorists. Ya I think they check all the terrorist boxes.
@@Kingrich_777 Sorry but we are not buying your lies. The Zionists all along arrived with the intent to steal land and drive out the Palestinians in order to engineer a Jewish state.

@@TommyGoodwin-q3mif this is sarcasm, not only does it display your baseless racist reticure but how poorly educated on this situation you are. This video is very soft, notice how never does he even question the current genocede, he fails to mention the massacre of Dier Yassin.
@Samuel Levy just like how obama took the peace prize when he destabilized the whole middle east. And no one is jealous about your bullshit, people superiority is measured by piety, behaviour, knowledge....etc Not by RACISM.
Yup. Lehi approached Hitler 3 times during WWII and the holocaust proposing they be allies against the British. All 3 worked in concert together wiping out hundreds of christian and Arab villages. In 1947, they worked together to blow up the King David Hotel, the headquarters of the British Mandate, to eliminate evidence the British obtained in a raid proving they worked hand in hand with the local Jewish leaders and Jewish League picking and planning terrorism attacks. The Jewish League and other leadership officially denied them, even though two commanders immediately became early Prime Ministers. Similar to how today's israeli government pretends they aren't behind the sadistic squatters in the West Bank.
Abraham Stern and his gang were fascist terrorists. But unlike other figures and groups who are labeled that by their critics and enemies, Stern himself declared the ideology of Lehi as fascist and tried to form an alliance with Mussolini and Hitler with these credentials which were sincere and followed Mussolini’s Doctrine of Fascism and modeled itself after Hitler’s Mein Kampf except he switched out the Aryans and Jews. He continued to deny the Holocaust even after the end of WWII. Stern also labeled Lehi as a terrorist organization himself, which they proudly admitted in their publications. Lehi didn’t just terrorize the British colonialists and Palestinians. They terrorized fellow Jews and Israelis and assassinated respected figures and heroes in the Jewish community. For example they assassinated Rudolf Kastner who was responsible for saving tens of thousands of Jews from the Holocaust with nearly 2,000 of them in the Kastner Train alone. Lehi hypocritically smeared this hero of Israel as a Nazi collaborator who was responsible for countless deaths in the Holocaust and then murdered him.
The Revisionist Zionists were all fascists, they also wanted to form an alliance with fascist Italy because they thought Mussolini would be better. They wanted to establish a fascist state in Israel.
You certainly should mention the Jewish Brigade in the British military during WWII. A real front line military force fighting as artillery, infantry & many other basic military functions. Very valuable experience in creating a real national defense force.
However, the bulk of the newly formed fascist death cult IDF formed in 1948 came from these paramilitary terrorist groups who had been bombing and murdering entire villages, including Christians for 70 years prior
I like how he skipped the Dier Yassin Massacre by the Irgun. Killing 117 Palestinian including children and women. You are trying hard to polish your violent history.

We are weak alone… stronger together
Complete BS. Ben Gurion and others, including the Jewish League worked directly with the terrorist paramilitaries to ethnic cleanse Palestine. This guy is putting out revisionist propaganda BS to thwart anyone from realizing the real history and savagery of the jews taking over land they had no claim to
@ShadyRestRetirement Home Well that would be wrong because it was a genocide, not self defense against a deadly enemy which is what the Jews had to do.
12:44 'It (bombings, assassinations, etc) showed the international community how much establishing a Jewish state meant to the Jewish people.' Interesting. What advice would you give Palestinians demanding a Palestinian state? It's called terrorism by the way, not 'militias'.
Advice for Palestinians: accept any of one the dozen peace deals/compromises Israel offered, even if it’s not perfect. You can learn more here: ua-cam.com/video/1kYWII25cxM/v-deo.html
@@UNPACKED Accept it or....? That sounds like a threat, or at least an imposition. The answer is that we do not know what the Palestinian reaction would be to a fair deal because they have not been offered one. The closest and fairest peace deal was ended when Rabin was assassinated - not by a Palestinian terrorist but by an Israeli. Rabin's widow directly blamed Netanyahu, although to be fair many Israelis were calling for his murder. The Israeli people have never been willing to pay the full price for peace - namely, a sovereign Palestine and an end to Israeli colonial pretensions.
Accept it, or keep fighting a war that they will lose. And we know what choice the Palestinian people and their leaders have unfortunately chosen time and again. Peace deals and compromises don’t always seem fair, but when the alternative is war and suffering, which is preferred? You can learn more about the breakdown of Oslo here: ua-cam.com/video/5SIAW4cX62I/v-deo.htmlsi=WdmIqLkPlD2q1DI9
@UNPACKED so your response to Palestinians dying is either they stay in a concentration camp and die or give up their land and identity and more than likely still die?
Of course violence should be a second option only, but lets not be naïve to think that diplomacy alone will lead to a conducive conclusion. Sometimes war is the only way things can be achieved and that's not to say it should always be the case. It varies in circumstance. This is simply the human conundrum that we sit with unfortunately.
@unpacked There's misinformation. Haganah and restraint? didnt launch attacks? Could you please explain to me how the Haganah bombed the Patria ship? It killed around 200 Jews accidently with it. 25 November 1940, Haifa Port. Whats your respone?
I am somebody who is not Jewish, Israeli, Arab nor Muslim. I am just trying to learn more about the history of the Israel/Palestine conflict (for want of a better word/term). What I have noticed is the spin pro-Palestinian or pro-Israeli videos/articles put in their content. In this video, they seem to be very careful not to mention who was there before the "British Mandate for Palestine" was established, only "picking things up from the 1920's" see 1:50, or calling the area, 'pre-state Israel' and i.e. no mention of Palestine or the Palestinian people. No exploration of what led to the Arab rioting other than hints it's due to race/anti-semetism. Maybe this is the case but the more I look into this, it does seem that there was understandable resentment of being displaced from one's homeland. There is no mention of Plan Dalet or even the Nakba. Would be good to see the Zionist perspective on these events as only pro-Palestinian authors seem to talk about these and therefore shape the narrative. Pro-Palestinian authors do the same. They don't really address the plight of the Jewish people and explore the need for a Jewish state. I think authors on both sides (as with all people) are sometimes unwitting in their biases but it does feel like their are strategic omissions (again as all people do) which is unhelpful if we are to meet in the middle and gain an understanding of each others position. Sadly it all comes down to human nature.
Saying that Palestinians attacked Jewish settlers merely for their race is indeed very reductive and misleading, Jewish people have always lived there as Palestinians for millennia to say that they suddenly decided to attack the jews seams odd especially when it comes from a person who deliberately never says the word palestine or Palestinians as if such people don't exist at all
@@zeyadghanim8271 yep totally agree. People also think it is reductionist to say but in my mind is fair to say most modern religious tensions can be traced back to European colonialism. As you state, people lived side by side in the Middle East for millenia but also in Africa and the Indian Subcontinent. The latter had Hindus and Muslims living side-by-side for centuries with relative peace similar to anywhere else but this changed with British Imperialism.
I'm not Jewish, but I am trying to learn and understand this complicated history. I can't help but ask, if other people are not entitled to their ancestral lands, why are the zionists entitled to theirs? It seems like most Jews were not on board with the idea until they needed a safe space whèn Hitler started his reign of terror
Look into the Round Table 1909, a Rothschild club. Balfour, Rhodes... "global conflict and elite integration in the 19th and early 20th centuries" Uni of Cali, Riverside
And coincidentally enough the polish government at the time were training Jewish terrorists to send to mandatory Palestine right before the Germans invaded
They were not ancestral lands for the jews. All that is a fake backstory the jews wrote for themselves after their religious cult emerged after 400 BC. They create the 3000 year old culture claim by co-opting the Israelites who were semitic (which means Arab speaking) Canaanites and poly-theistic. Everyone accepts the BS founding myth because they use the same names and words, israel, israelites, and everyone accepts the co-opting as fact. The Canaanites were a generalized group of various Arab tribes. The jews only ever had autonomic control of a small region before the Romans booted them. For the last 2000 years the jews only had a tiny fractional presence in the Levant until the armed paramilitary squatters were sent in the 1870's to begin ethnic cleansing through any means possible. The issue was never about a 'safe place.' European jews began discussing having a country for their religious cult, they are not a race, after the fall of Napolean when all of Europe coalesced into Nationalist countries. The problem was everywhere was already taken by people with real nationalist claims. They even discussed possibilites in Africa, but they are stunningly racist considering all the victim whining. They discussed Alaska but no one wanted to be cold. They even discussed Grand Island NY. Can you imagine when they started murdering Americans and Canadians to expand by ethnic cleansing like they have in Palestine?
Why would all jews have to be on board? Of course many people come to terms with their homeland being taken away from them 2000 years prior. But judging by the Holocaust, other european antisemitism and the expulsion of 850 thousand jews from arab countries the zionists very clearly have had the right idea. Only jews can defend jews.
@@commanderchaos5670 I have friend who makes that observation. He points out that jewish perspective all depends on which side of the barbed wire they are on. On one side they are crying, if on the outside everyone else is dying. Jews had only a fractional, barely existent population in Palestine for 2000 years until the first armed terrorist squatters were sent into the Ottoman Empire from Europe in the 1870's. Then the murder and ethnic cleansing began. The 'war' has been going on for 150 years
@@KerryWhitley-w6j I don't think its fair to summerize that all jewish people think the same about basically anything. I'm sure you don't know the they started buying land legally in Palestine from the Ottomans. Neither side is free from doing horrible things to the other. Arabs attacked jewish settlements as well.

I watch this video in light of the recent Oct. 7th attacks on Israelis by Hamas militants. The similarities between the resolve by the zionists commitment to do whatever it had to to gain an independent state and Hamas to do the same is clear. It should be abundantly clear that the answer to today's conflict is an independent Palestinian state. You would think that of all people the jews would sympathize with the struggle of the Palestinians. Instead they are imposing the same actions and using the same language that were used against them in the Holocaust. Calling arabs animals and inhuman? Doesn't that sound familiar? The answer for Israeli peace and security is not the confiscation of all of Palestine. It first needs to face the wrongs that it has committed against the Palestinians and then make restitution. I believe that if this is done with mutual commitment to peace and moving forward that Palestinians and Israelis can live side by side together. I have always had sympathy for the persecution that jews have suffered but now am saddened that they are persecuting another group of people themselves. I guess it's true that hurt people hurt people. It's time to end the cycle of violence and find compassion and peace ... Shalom ✌🏼

All of these countries they have to oppress in order to stay in power unless they are like not having any people against them but and Israel they have hundreds of millions of Arabs against them and the rest of the world who are anti-Semitic
And Palestinian Israelis experience housing discrimination and harsher criminal punishment for crimes, and a much higher rate of violent hate crimes against them in comparison to Jewish Israeli citizens.
The Palmach was a unit within the Hagana. Nili lasted just under 2 years well before the formation of the state in 1915-1917 so aren't "pre-IDF brigades", and Hashomer was a guard/defence organization between 1909 and 1920 so also doesn't fit the definition.
I am hard core pro- Israel… and may I say, that this is a great unbiased video about the events the occurred before the state was established. Yes, there are harsh things to consider and some actions did go against Jewish morality. But, unfortunately, no state and no state’s history is pristine
So what is the difference between these pre IDF brigades and Hamas then? Didn't all of them use terror to reach a political goal and fight for their freedom. Doesn't that make IDF a terrorist organization as well since they still use the same tactics?? Double Standards??
The double standards are very high in this video, the founders of Hamas were victims of the IDF's brutal massacre during the Suez Canal Crisis. Any boy above the age of 13 were rounded up and executed in multiple villages in Gaza. 3 boys who escaped mass execution and began to retaliate.
No brother, please start from 1870s when Palestinian population was 4% jews...... Then the jews started showing up from Europe..... Palestine was not a country but a land inhabited by Palestinians...

Irgun actually slowed their attacks on the British then the Lehi thankfully continued attacks against the British. After ww2 continued their attacks against the British
Hi, This was taken from a book - "Inside Terrorism" by Bruce Hoffman. "But the Irgun’s inchoate revolt against British rule was short- lived. Less than three months after it began, Britain was at war with Germany. Confronted by the pros pect of the greater menace of a victorious Nazi Germany, the Irgun declared a truce and announced the suspension of all anti- British operations for the war’s duration. Like the rest of the Jewish community in Palestine, who had also pledged to support the British war effort, the Irgun hoped that this loy alty would later result in the recognition of Zionist claims to statehood" can you explain why you and Bruce Hoffman disagree on weather Irgun's had a cease-fire with Britain? Thanks, great video.
I don't believe Arab and Jewish fights before 1948 were a balanced fight. ... Arab suffered heavily and were ethnically cleansed... I guess Jews were far more determined to drive out Arabs tan wise versa....
What do you think? Is violence ever a legitimate way to achieve particular goals?
Of course violence has to be the last option, or sometimes not even an option. But time has change and I don't think that question can be applied to the years of the ww2 and the years prior the independence of Israel. Think about it, during the Holocaust we had the Partisans. They choose violence methods in order to rescue, defende and protect Jews. Something needed to be done, we couldn't just sit and wait for something to happen, we needed to take actions and do something about our brothers being murdered for nothing. Now in this case, the three underground armies were created for that purpose. To protect and defend Jews but also to fight, to fight to have our home back, 'to be a free people in our land' just like the Hatikvah, Israel's national anthem says. The hope of more than two thousands years to live in the land of Zion and Jerusalem under hebrew's rule and not under a foreign country rule, in this case the British rule. We had this dream even before of the Holocaust and we were moving slowly towards that dream, until the Holocaust happened and we needed urgently a home a place of our own to live without fear. These three underground armies had its differences, but focusing on the Irgun and Lechi they used violence. But that was because we didn't had any other choice! Diplomacy wouldn't do anything to help the Jewish have their, our, own country ! It was enough! We couldn't just sit and wait for the next meeting with British officers, we needed to take matters on our own hands. The yearning for Eretz Israel was among all these members of the underground armies, they knew the dangers of it all but there's a time when you realize that hey, 'my brothers are being killed not just in Europe but in Israel (or British Mandate). We cannot wait for something to change. We need to fight for ourselves, for our country for a place for us' and that's what they did. In that time at that moment ' violence ', actions is what it was needed in order to fight for our home. So in that moment it was the right thing to do. Just like the Partisans did to protect and defend Jews. In the end, it's not a coincidence that the British Mandate wrote the white paper, they in fact did had conversations with Hitler, they knew what was happening in Europe and decided still to limit the acces of Jews in Israel. So diplomacy, talking and meeting with the British who wanted to control the Jewish quantity in Israel (and they did everything in their power to achieve that, including sending back the boats full of Jews back to Europe knowing what their fate would be with the nazis over there) was off limits, and without any good outcome for us. They, the three armies, may had many differences, but refering to the Irgun and Lechi they did EVERYTHING in their powers to avoid more Jewish deaths by fighting with their own life at all costs to free our country of the British Mandate so what's says in our anthem becomes a reality 'free people in our land'.
Of course. The British were given a mandate to help forge an independent Israel by the league of nations in the twenties. The British lied and instead they turned eretz Israel into a British colony. Had the Jewish underground not fought against the British there would have been no Israel.
The irgun did exactly what the ira did in Ireland, the vietcong did in Vietnam and the fln did in algeria :they fought for their nation's independence from a foreign colonial power. While the haganah was appeasing the British and handing over Jewish fighters to Britain. They followed in the example of Simon bar kochba who fought the Romans 1,800 years ago. You might think them controversial but they're heroes in my book.
There are a lot inaccuracies in you video. The irgun did not fight fellow jews. In fact when the haganah was turning over Jewish fighter to the British the irgun gave orders not to retaliate in order not to cause a civil war, which according to the Jewish virtual library, brought the irgun national sympathy for their cause. During ww2 the irgun did not fight the British. The stopped their campaign against the British to help the fight against Hitler. And how did they repay them? By arresting and deporting thousands of jews to Cyprus in concentration camps, executing Jewish fighters, detaining jews without trial, stirring up arab Jewish tensions (divide and rule) etc.
People seem to have forgotten that the Arab invasion of Israel in 1948 was supported by the British with money and arms. They even plotted to divide eretz Israel between the conquering Arab armies, with them keeping Haifa.
They desperately (UK) wanted to keep Haifa and israel under the British influence to ensure that they would remain in the middle east forever.
Given the British betrayal and hostility the irgun did the logical thing and fought a guerrillas war against the British imperialists while making all efforts to minimize civilian casualties. Your trying to paint them as extremists and terrorists is frankly, disingenuous.
Call them what they’re really are: TERRORIST!
@@joshuacondell1686 Zionism is an arbritary movement. Jews were able to seek haven in the Ottoman empire during the WWs. All of the extra bloodshed caused there by Jewish militias was not necessary.

A second faction that rivaled us didin't help with our opposition to the British colonists.
@@nizarshawwa3704 of course it was necessary. Was the ira justified in fighting uk? was the fln justified in fighting france?

Pls do your homework and come back.
0:56 they didn't disband, Haganah became the IDF, Irgun became Menachim Begin's Party Herut & Lehi became Netanyahu's Party Likud.
Let me get this right. So the self-proclaimed terrorists… Are the ones running the country running around calling everyone else terrorists?
Irgun, Lehi, and Haganah were paramilitary terrrorist groups. They became those political parties and the fascism roll continued when they became the IDF in 1948. Two of their sociopath commanders became Prime Ministers.
Awesome
Ah, that explains why Bibi is a lunatic

100% this is scripted propaganda
The terror caused by the jewish terrorists was enough to drive out an Empire
Now were just left with revenge genociding against the wrong people

This is revisionist rationalization nonsense to dissipate anyone finding out who these organizations really were and all the barbaric atrocities they committed over decades. They were officially declared terrorist organizations by both the US and Britain. They all 3 worked together and murdered tens of thousands, wiped out entire christian and Arab villages. Two of their depraved sociopath commanders became Prime Ministers. In 1947, they worked together to blow up the King David Hotel, the headquarters of the British Mandate, to eliminate evidence the British obtained in a raid proving they worked hand in hand with the local Jewish leaders and Jewish League picking and planning terrorism attacks. The Jewish League and other leadership officially denied them, even though two commanders immediately became early Prime Ministers. They didn't disband, they morphed into the new terrorist organization as the IDF in 1948 and immediately went on an ethnic cleansing murder spree known as the Nakba. They haven't changed tactics or gained any morals in the decades since. Irgun was officially formed in 1928. But there were unofficial paramilitary terrorists for decades before that. Recruited and trained cult fanatics were sent into the Ottoman Empire in the 1870's with a long term goal of taking over the region and land jews had no claim to and had only had a tiny fractional presence in for 2000 years. Originally the Ottomans allowed foreign land purchases, but moved to stop that once they realized what was happening and as the body count kept mounting The terror and murder seriously accelerated after WWI and the fall of the Ottoman Empire. Lehi even went to Hitler and proposed being allies three times during WWII and the holocaust because the main goal at the time was forcing the British out of Palestine.
What local civilians he only referred to them as 'Arabs' that tells you all you need to know about this racist propaganda.
You could call these militias 'terrorists'. Maybe worth keeping that in mind when people today talk of 'war on terrorism'.
They were defense groups

@@serdirtbagoftheleft4045 Deir Yassin happened in the middle of a war and was the only event of similar nature against Arabs that happened in that war.
King David bombing (not Solomon) was indeed a terrorist attack. The Etzel and Lehi said they notified the hotel before the explosion of a bomb. The British said they never got a call.
Nevertheless Etzel and especially Hagana used sabotage and avoided killing without being shot on first.
Lehi was indeed a terrorist organisation.
@@serdirtbagoftheleft4045 Dier Yassin was attacked because the Arabs had a 5 month blockade of Jerusalem. There is NO Solomon Hotel in Israel.

….its funny how you conveniently forget the mention that Jewish settlements in 1920’s all the way to the mid 40’s fell victim to horrible massacres and “riots” perpetrated by Palestinian Arabs who wished to rid Mandatory Palestine of the few Jews living in the country. That’s kinda why the Haganah was created-to defend the Jewish settlements from Arab and British aggression. The other militia organizations were borne out a desire to commit fully to offensive military action as opposed to defensive. In other words, the other militias wished to destroy the enemies of Israel without mercy. I wouldn’t dare say that they did not commit horrible atrocities, but that wouldn’t make them “terror organizations.” Just as the U.S military’s innumerable atrocities don’t make the entity a terrorist ministry.
@@Kingrich_777 so you have Zionist leaders and the British colonizers making deals in Europe to hand off an already stolen country. They begin to put up settlements and you don’t expect revolt. This idea that it’s fine to go ahead and start a new country on the grave of another is pretty insane. The idea that the land isn’t supposed to belong to any one religion is the only way it works. You can’t make deals with the colonizer to take over and bring in people from another continent and expect nothing to happen. Doesn’t matter because the British made sure Zionists had all the weapons and Palestinians had none. It’s sad that we couldn’t of had one nation with all three religions today regardless of the name. But you can’t colonize and oppress people and do whatever you want because some book you wrote thousands of years ago tells you that you are special. It’s insanely narcissistic.
@@Kingrich_777These groups terrorised and bombed British institutions including the Embassy in Rome. So Arabs were supposed to watch the unfettered arrival of Jewish settlements. They were NEVER interested in sharing the land with the Arabs and they murdered in cold blood. They assassinated a Swedish Count that was just trying to negotiate a peace.
Their name literally means "only by the gun".
They believed in "aggressive defence" i.e the best form of defence is attack. Greater Israel was always the plan.
Then these guys were absorbed into the IDF and some of these terrorists became heads of state of Israel.
@@Kingrich_777They were SELF CONFESSED TERRORISTS. What are you talking about? Because they aren't f@cking Arabs??? They used violence to achieve political ends. There was no line they did not cross but you wouldn't call them terrorists. That's disgusting.

The sterngang actually wanted to ally with Hitler to kick out the British. That's how rightwing they were.
Yup. Lehi approached Hitler 3 times during WWII and the holocaust proposing they be allies against the British. All 3 worked in concert together wiping out hundreds of christian and Arab villages. In 1947, they worked together to blow up the King David Hotel, the headquarters of the British Mandate, to eliminate evidence the British obtained in a raid proving they worked hand in hand with the local Jewish leaders and Jewish League picking and planning terrorism attacks. The Jewish League and other leadership officially denied them, even though two commanders immediately became early Prime Ministers. Similar to how today's israeli government pretends they aren't behind the sadistic squatters in the West Bank.
Abraham Stern and his gang were fascist terrorists. But unlike other figures and groups who are labeled that by their critics and enemies, Stern himself declared the ideology of Lehi as fascist and tried to form an alliance with Mussolini and Hitler with these credentials which were sincere and followed Mussolini’s Doctrine of Fascism and modeled itself after Hitler’s Mein Kampf except he switched out the Aryans and Jews. He continued to deny the Holocaust even after the end of WWII. Stern also labeled Lehi as a terrorist organization himself, which they proudly admitted in their publications.
Lehi didn’t just terrorize the British colonialists and Palestinians. They terrorized fellow Jews and Israelis and assassinated respected figures and heroes in the Jewish community. For example they assassinated Rudolf Kastner who was responsible for saving tens of thousands of Jews from the Holocaust with nearly 2,000 of them in the Kastner Train alone. Lehi hypocritically smeared this hero of Israel as a Nazi collaborator who was responsible for countless deaths in the Holocaust and then murdered him.
They made the jihadis tremble and poo there pants
Even crazier they tried alligning with the Soviets just to spite the British
The Revisionist Zionists were all fascists, they also wanted to form an alliance with fascist Italy because they thought Mussolini would be better. They wanted to establish a fascist state in Israel.
You certainly should mention the Jewish Brigade in the British military during WWII.
A real front line military force fighting as artillery, infantry & many other basic military functions.
Very valuable experience in creating a real national defense force.
Yeah I thought he would mention them
However, the bulk of the newly formed fascist death cult IDF formed in 1948 came from these paramilitary terrorist groups who had been bombing and murdering entire villages, including Christians for 70 years prior

Rabin's widow directly blamed Netanyahu, although to be fair many Israelis were calling for his murder.
The Israeli people have never been willing to pay the full price for peace - namely, a sovereign Palestine and an end to Israeli colonial pretensions.

I am somebody who is not Jewish, Israeli, Arab nor Muslim. I am just trying to learn more about the history of the Israel/Palestine conflict (for want of a better word/term). What I have noticed is the spin pro-Palestinian or pro-Israeli videos/articles put in their content. In this video, they seem to be very careful not to mention who was there before the "British Mandate for Palestine" was established, only "picking things up from the 1920's" see 1:50, or calling the area, 'pre-state Israel' and i.e. no mention of Palestine or the Palestinian people. No exploration of what led to the Arab rioting other than hints it's due to race/anti-semetism. Maybe this is the case but the more I look into this, it does seem that there was understandable resentment of being displaced from one's homeland. There is no mention of Plan Dalet or even the Nakba. Would be good to see the Zionist perspective on these events as only pro-Palestinian authors seem to talk about these and therefore shape the narrative.
Pro-Palestinian authors do the same. They don't really address the plight of the Jewish people and explore the need for a Jewish state. I think authors on both sides (as with all people) are sometimes unwitting in their biases but it does feel like their are strategic omissions (again as all people do) which is unhelpful if we are to meet in the middle and gain an understanding of each others position. Sadly it all comes down to human nature.
Saying that Palestinians attacked Jewish settlers merely for their race is indeed very reductive and misleading, Jewish people have always lived there as Palestinians for millennia to say that they suddenly decided to attack the jews seams odd especially when it comes from a person who deliberately never says the word palestine or Palestinians as if such people don't exist at all

And coincidentally enough the polish government at the time were training Jewish terrorists to send to mandatory Palestine right before the Germans invaded
They were not ancestral lands for the jews. All that is a fake backstory the jews wrote for themselves after their religious cult emerged after 400 BC. They create the 3000 year old culture claim by co-opting the Israelites who were semitic (which means Arab speaking) Canaanites and poly-theistic. Everyone accepts the BS founding myth because they use the same names and words, israel, israelites, and everyone accepts the co-opting as fact. The Canaanites were a generalized group of various Arab tribes. The jews only ever had autonomic control of a small region before the Romans booted them. For the last 2000 years the jews only had a tiny fractional presence in the Levant until the armed paramilitary squatters were sent in the 1870's to begin ethnic cleansing through any means possible. The issue was never about a 'safe place.' European jews began discussing having a country for their religious cult, they are not a race, after the fall of Napolean when all of Europe coalesced into Nationalist countries. The problem was everywhere was already taken by people with real nationalist claims. They even discussed possibilites in Africa, but they are stunningly racist considering all the victim whining. They discussed Alaska but no one wanted to be cold. They even discussed Grand Island NY. Can you imagine when they started murdering Americans and Canadians to expand by ethnic cleansing like they have in Palestine?
@@KerryWhitley-w6jlaughably false revisionist drivel
Why would all jews have to be on board? Of course many people come to terms with their homeland being taken away from them 2000 years prior. But judging by the Holocaust, other european antisemitism and the expulsion of 850 thousand jews from arab countries the zionists very clearly have had the right idea. Only jews can defend jews.
11:40 Haganah & Lehi didn't back out, they were just mired in wranglings about the timing, Irgun was impatient & did it without them.
Militant groups or terrorist organisations?
Terror organizations obviously
Depends on what side of the fence your on.
@@commanderchaos5670 I have friend who makes that observation. He points out that jewish perspective all depends on which side of the barbed wire they are on. On one side they are crying, if on the outside everyone else is dying. Jews had only a fractional, barely existent population in Palestine for 2000 years until the first armed terrorist squatters were sent into the Ottoman Empire from Europe in the 1870's. Then the murder and ethnic cleansing began. The 'war' has been going on for 150 years
Irgun and Lechi were, but not the Haganah.
@@KerryWhitley-w6j I don't think its fair to summerize that all jewish people think the same about basically anything. I'm sure you don't know the they started buying land legally in Palestine from the Ottomans. Neither side is free from doing horrible things to the other. Arabs attacked jewish settlements as well.
Imagine how shameless you can be when you say that those terrorist groups were "illegal militias" which were pretty "bad ass"
Another interesting fact, the stern gang did these things:
- Brutally massacred innocent Palestinians in the Dayr Yassin.
- Assassinated anyone remotely close to political ties to freedom of Palestinians
- ANHIALIATED the entire town of Qisarya brutally killing innocent Palestine

They did what needed to be done to preserve as much of their own people as possible... No one is coming to save you, so you have to save yourself!
If we can justify them killing Palestinian babies, women and elderly in Deir Yassen just to steal Arab Palestinian land and not call them terrorist like we label Hamas we are hypocrites and bigots. How is the European white Jew's trauma from mistreatment in Europe Palestinians fault
They traveled to a land inhabited by people they didn’t like and slaughtered them and took their land
Exzellent and informational video
Always the victim? 🤔
As Guru Gobingh told his Sikhs: “When your back is to the Wall, it is your. Duty to pick up the Sword.” Which means violence to defend yourself is justified. He also said: “Zulm karna Paap hai, Zulm sehna bhi Paap hai!” Which means to commit cruelty is a sin, but an even greater sin is to tolerate cruelty. He taught his Sikhs to fight for justice and to protect the weak. Violence is justified when nothing else works! 🇮🇱♥️🇮🇳
So he compared a terrorist movement to pizza. Must be very rotten.
Great idea… however, after listening to Daryl Coopers podcast presentation entitled “Fear and Loathing in Jerusalem”… this analysis doesn’t go into enough detail and makes sweeping general statements about things… but… these Terrorists need to be discussed

June 1948: The ship Altalena arrives off the Israeli coast with a shipment of arms destined for the Irgun. Ben-Gurion orders the IDF to prevent the arms from being unloaded. An armed struggle ensues, the Altalena sinks, and several members of the Irgun are killed or wounded. Ben-Gurion and Menachem Begin (the leader of Irgun) become deep-seated enemies.
Where do you get all this ctap from
Jewish morals? It is a Torah commandment to do whatever is necessary to save Jewish life. If you say the Lehi and Irgun weren’t moral according to the Torah you have to take another look at it.
So, if you need to sacrifice a goi to save a jew, you sacrifice the goi? o_O
maybe its you, who have to take another look at it. you took an old mystic book literal and bring so much mess in the world by this. is this your book at all? jews study it thier life long, still not understand it. whats this, you have a book you dont even understand? who are the true israelites? at least for sure not those who took a piece of earth more important than a life that GOD created.

They basically pioneered terrorism. Even today Al Qaeda still have books by them in their libraries.
hey nazi
I watch this video in light of the recent Oct. 7th attacks on Israelis by Hamas militants. The similarities between the resolve by the zionists commitment to do whatever it had to to gain an independent state and Hamas to do the same is clear.
It should be abundantly clear that the answer to today's conflict is an independent Palestinian state.
You would think that of all people the jews would sympathize with the struggle of the Palestinians. Instead they are imposing the same actions and using the same language that were used against them in the Holocaust. Calling arabs animals and inhuman? Doesn't that sound familiar?
The answer for Israeli peace and security is not the confiscation of all of Palestine. It first needs to face the wrongs that it has committed against the Palestinians and then make restitution.
I believe that if this is done with mutual commitment to peace and moving forward that Palestinians and Israelis can live side by side together.
I have always had sympathy for the persecution that jews have suffered but now am saddened that they are persecuting another group of people themselves. I guess it's true that hurt people hurt people. It's time to end the cycle of violence and find compassion and peace ... Shalom ✌🏼

There is no "Palestine " to confiscate. It's all eretz Yisrael

It was called the British mandate of PALESTINE. And zionist say palestine people never existed
Palestine people are arabs from around the middle east that occupied jewish lands after the jews were exiled
The Zionist comment is that there never was a State, if Independent Palestine.
The only people known as "Palestinians" were the Jews. Arabs only adopted the term when in 1964 an Egyptian (Yasir Arafat) with aid from the KGB invented the "Palestinians"
@@richardmoss5934 The word palestine exists for hundreds of years it was used by romans and many others to describe the region. You are wrong Palestinians are Canaanite semitic people converted to christianity or Islam AND ALSO israelites jews converted to Islam or christianity. You are right they are not arabs originally but rather semitic people from that region.
@@benascreammma-submittheste915 Of course it did, it was the Romans who renamed the area Palestine after their conquest. The original "Palestinians" came from Greece and lived in the area of current day Gaza and were so named because their name came from the Hebrew for invader.

How do we cover up European land theft? I know just call it the British Mandate.
The Ottomans signed their land over to the Allies after WW1. The Allies turned the responsibility of the land to the League of Nations. The League of Nations stole nothing. Read some history, they established many Arab countries.

They used to be oppressed,now there the oppressor
All of these countries they have to oppress in order to stay in power unless they are like not having any people against them but and Israel they have hundreds of millions of Arabs against them and the rest of the world who are anti-Semitic
jim cherkas 25% of Israel’s population isn’t Jewish, criticizing the fascist psychotic far right violence of the Israeli state is not anti-semitic
And Palestinian Israelis experience housing discrimination and harsher criminal punishment for crimes, and a much higher rate of violent hate crimes against them in comparison to Jewish Israeli citizens.
They amalgamated and morphed into the IDF.
there was more then 3. for example HaPalmach and the Shomer and Nili
The Palmach was a unit within the Hagana. Nili lasted just under 2 years well before the formation of the state in 1915-1917 so aren't "pre-IDF brigades", and Hashomer was a guard/defence organization between 1909 and 1920 so also doesn't fit the definition.
I am hard core pro- Israel… and may I say, that this is a great unbiased video about the events the occurred before the state was established. Yes, there are harsh things to consider and some actions did go against Jewish morality. But, unfortunately, no state and no state’s history is pristine
Zioterrorism is a terrible thing
A war is never registered as legal to any planet in this universe
So what is the difference between these pre IDF brigades and Hamas then? Didn't all of them use terror to reach a political goal and fight for their freedom. Doesn't that make IDF a terrorist organization as well since they still use the same tactics?? Double Standards??
The double standards are very high in this video, the founders of Hamas were victims of the IDF's brutal massacre during the Suez Canal Crisis. Any boy above the age of 13 were rounded up and executed in multiple villages in Gaza. 3 boys who escaped mass execution and began to retaliate.

Hi,
This was taken from a book - "Inside Terrorism" by Bruce Hoffman.
"But the Irgun’s
inchoate revolt against British rule was short- lived. Less than three months
after it began, Britain was at war with Germany. Confronted by the pros
pect
of the greater menace of a victorious Nazi Germany, the Irgun declared
a truce and announced the suspension of all anti- British operations for the
war’s duration. Like the rest of the Jewish community in Palestine, who had
also pledged to support the British war effort, the Irgun hoped that this loy
alty
would later result in the recognition of Zionist claims to statehood"
can you explain why you and Bruce Hoffman disagree on weather Irgun's had a cease-fire with Britain?
Thanks,

Brilliant video, thank you
