Haganah was a Zionist terrorist organization in British-occupied Palestine established in 1920. It played a major role in the Palestinian uprisings of 1929, 1936, the Nakba and in a program to draw topographic maps of Palestinian villages, known as the Village Files. Later became a large part of the Israeli Occupation Force after the State of "Israel" was established in 1948, with its leader, David Ben-Gurion, later becoming prime minister of the illegal colonial entity.[1]
Formation and purpose
The Haganah, literally meaning "defense" (הֲגָנָה) in Hebrew, was established in 1920. After 1936, under the influence of Orde Charles Wingate, a British official who understood the necessity of forming a military force to take Palestine by force, it quickly became the military wing of the Jewish Agency, the embryonic Zionist government in Mandatory Palestine [2]. It was used to protect Zionist settlements bought by the JNF, Jewish National Fund, from absentee landlords and to attack, demoralize and break the Palestinian resistance [3].
