This is outrageous.

The Imperial War Museum describes the Jewish Brigades of World War II this way:
Terrorist activities: Men of the 1st Battalion, Jewish Brigade during a march past. The Jewish Brigade was formed in September 1944 and fought in Italy under the British Eighth Army. Many of its members went on to join the Haganah and other illegal formations.
That is how they describe the Jewish Brigades???



This is inexcusable. Nothing about how they were formed, how they trained, how they fought - just calling them future terrorists (and incidentally referring to the Haganah as an illegal organization, which it wasn't - at times it cooperated with the British.)




The IWM does have some interesting pages, though, like this photo of a menorah built for orphan children from a Sten gun and cartridges.

Elder of Ziyon - حـكـيـم صـهـيـون



This blog may be a labor of love for me, but it takes a lot of effort, time and money. For 20 years and 40,000 articles I have been providing accurate, original news that would have remained unnoticed. I've written hundreds of scoops and sometimes my reporting ends up making a real difference. I appreciate any donations you can give to keep this blog going.
