State of Terror

This new book shows how the use of terror by supporters of the idea of a Jewish state in Palestine was systematic, routine, and accepted by Jewish leaders as necessary to achieve their aims. At the height of the British Mandate in Palestine, terrorist acts were carried out at a frequency and with an intensity that has been largely forgotten, even though daily newspaper headlines in the US, Britain, and Palestine spoke of bombings, assassinations, and massacres against Arabs and British civilians, as well as soldiers. Suarez tells this story using the terrorists' own accounts in secret internal papers boasting of their successes, and quoting from contemporary intelligence briefings and secret diplomatic correspondence.

Aceasta noua carte arata cum utilizarea terorii de catre sustinatorii ideii unui stat evreiesc in Palestina a fost sistematica, de rutina si acceptata de liderii evrei ca fiind necesara pentru a-si atinge obiectivele. La apogeul mandatului britanic in Palestina, actele teroriste au fost efectuate la o frecventa si cu o intensitate care a fost uitata in mare parte, chiar daca titlurile cotidiene din SUA, Marea Britanie si Palestina vorbeau despre bombardamente, asasinate si masacre impotriva Arabi si civili britanici, precum si soldati.
