The Jewish Story Season 2, Episode 36: The Revolt Against British Rule and the Struggle Within the Underground

Posted by Mike Feuer on June 6, 2019
Topics: The Jewish Story

As European Jewry was consumed by the Shoah, the Zionists in the land of Israel gradually came to see the British blocking the gates of Israel as their main enemy. The episode explores the split between the Irgun and the Lechi, the rise of Menachem Begin as a leader and the internecine war which almost doomed their struggle.
