to lead the people and the Nation!

The traitors were the leftist both from the Palmach and Hagana under the leadership of David Ben Gurion that cooperated with the British during time that is known as the "season" to arrest the freedom fighters and deport them to Eritrea

This murderous assault by Ben Gurion's men on fellow Jews should forever go down in history as the most infamous day
in modern day Israel.

Deir Yassin & the King David terrorist attacks come to mind.
as does the assassination of the UN official Folke Bernadotte, Count of Wisborg.
...and that's just for starters...the list of crimes against humanity and war crimes perpetuated by these terrorists is long indeed!

Tsahi Dabush I think you should have checked your facts before writing your article. A good reference piece would be “the Revolt” by Menachem Begin (his version of the event)I was a six


year old kid and to this day remember the blackened sky over Tel Aviv and Begin talking over the airwaves . Other than “The Sazone “ it’s one of the darkest times in the history of the

State of Israel. it’s about time these fighters for the land of Israel were exonerated of treason

Begin wanted 20% of the arms brought by in by Altalena to be delivered to Irgun fighters in the old city ofJerusalem, to resist against the Jordanian Legion, while Haganah and Palmah had left the battle. Ben Gurion understood that accepting this demand would give Begin and Irgun the prestige of having liberated the old city of Jerusalem and surroundings, having liberated Tel Aviv, and having brought in a quantity of quality weapons that the left could only dream of, a prestige that could elect Begin as first Prime Minister² of the new born state. So Ben Gurion invented the story of a Putch fomented by Begin and the Irgun. He, Ben Gurion, gave the order to open fire on Altalena and kill Jews. Today, the Jewish people should finally decide who was the real traitor!
