They were not trying to kill people. They blew up
bridges. The Hotel was a target because it was
confiscated by the British and used as a military
base. Still they weren't targeting people but the
building itself. They called and expected an
evacuation. 17 Jews also died in the explosion. It was
a terrible event that was not meant to kill people
just destroy property.

They were targeting soldiers but often missed and
killed many innocent women and children.

When the target is women and children it's terrorism
in the worst form. When you target a military barracks
or a bunch of bridges and call ahead to warn people
and people still die it's a terrible accident that
shouldn't happen again. And it did not happen again.

Palestine was under British rule, and 32% Jewish. How
did they support Hitler? You mean the individual
Palestinians that weren't Jewish that were hoping all
the Jews would be killed?
