Seriously, they assasinated officials, and at one point massacred hundreds of people in a village. Why is this group not more well known? Also, Israel gave them amnesty in the late 40s, and eventually gave out Lehi Medals for former members. Isn't this like mainstream Islam condoning ISIS or something?

We still talk about Japan denying war time atrocities from the same time period [as the Israel thing] so why shouldn't we talk about this? 1. Nobody is denying these things happened, so your Japanese reference is irrelevant 2. There hasn't been a causal link established between this group 70 years ago and the modern treatment of peoples which would put it in the same category as segregation 3. There are a lot of terrorist groups that have existed over time, so if we're going to consider one from 70 years ago relevant to modern Israel, we're going to need to also include all the terrorist organizations that have existed in the past 70 years from all the surrounding countries. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

NibeIungsnarf 03/05/18 4:22:41 PM #19:	In 1980, Israel instituted a military decoration, an "award for activity in the struggle for the establishment of Israel", the Lehi ribbon. I'm not sure how this indicates that the existence of this terrorist organization, dispanded long ago as it is, is irrelevant to discussion of Israel's military relation with, in particular, Palestine. Side note, I've been in two museums in Israel where this terrorist organization were praised to high heavens ala WWII propaganda in the Yushukan museum in Tokyo. One was in Jerusalem and the other in a settlement outside of Bethlehem. I'm really not sure how one can make the argument that they're irrelevant to the modern day discourse of Israel. <cite>NibeIungsnarf posted [p:897228553] in There's th...
