haganah

The Haganah (which translates to "defiance") was the official Jewish Defense Force during the Palestine Mandate. Haganah took part in several terrorist activities in an attempt to convince the British Mandatory government to leave the country and relinquish power to the Zionist Agencies in Palestine. Not nearly as radical as its counterparts, Irgun and the Stern Gang, Haganah often bombed buildings rather than targeted people.
