I'm not conceding anything.  It isn't a subject that I'm interested; so I
haven't studied it.  I certainly wouldn't take the word of someone who took
one of my statements out of context to, apparently, divert attention from my
criticism of Hezbollah.  

 

However, the British Imperial power was something admired by Hitler.  He
liked the way the operated. He hoped Britain would join him in ruling the
world.  Apparently he saw something different in the British Imperialists
dominating Palestine (and the Jews) than you see.

You're forgetting the nature of the conflict.

 

The Nazis were military conquerers, the British in Palestine were a Mandated
Power.

 

Further, French action had tactical and, later, strategic purposes and were
conducted against military targets.

 

Zionists militants on the other hand had political goals and were willing to
engage civilian targets.

 

There is a clear and marked difference.

 

I do find it interesting that Lawrence appears to have conceded the view
that the Zionists were terrorists.

Right.  I forgot the Leftist Party line.  French good.  Israel bad.

Was the French Resistance, who did similar things, a terrorist organization?
