19 Sivan 5768, 22 June 08 07:15by Hillel Fendel(IsraelNN.com) A
ceremony will be held Sunday evening in partial rectification of a
historic wrong in which some victims of an important Zionist battle
were remembered and some were not.
The ceremony will commemorate one of the three stages of a mission
executed by the Jewish populace against the British Mandate in 1946.
It was a year after the Holocaust had ended, and the British were
still refusing to issue entry permits to the Land of Israel for
100,000 Jewish refugees from Europe.  The Haganah, Lechi and Etzel -
the three Jewish military groups in pre-State Israel - responded by
conductiong nearly simultaneous military actions against the railway
infrastructures of the British Mandate in Palestine.
The Haganah blew up eight British Railway bridges, Etzel demolished
trains after passengers disembarked, and Lechi destroyed a host of
railway workshops near Haifa.  However, while the lone casualty of the
Haganah operation, Yechiam Weitz, was buried with full honors in
Jerusalem, the 11 victims of the Lechi operation were all but ignored;
no official representatives attended the mass funeral. Only when the
Likud was elected to power in 1977 were they officially recognized.
The Lechi offensive was its largest anti-British operation - and the
one which cost the most casualties.  Eleven were killed, and 22 others
were wounded, arrested and sentenced to death by hanging - until
pressure and Lechi threats caused the British to commute their
sentences to life in prison.
The Haganah's bridge offensive occurred on June 16, 1946, and was
followed the next day by the Lechi's attack on railway workshops.  The
latter was meticulously planned and involved 45 fighters, including
four women.  It relied heavily on the inside work of a railway
employee, Lechi member Jacques Alkalai.
Offensive Was a Success, but the Retreat Was Not
When the force made its way by truck into the British target compound,
the element of surprise was lost when the suspicious Arab guards
opened fire, killing two Lechi members.  Despite this, the Lechi force
continued with the mission, moving from target to target - train cars,
cranes, and more - and planting explosives.  The ensuing explosions
alerted the British, who finally caught up with the force and killed
nine of the fighters and took 22 captives.  Six Lechi fighters managed
to escape.
The nine dead were buried in Haifa following a modest funeral
ceremony.  The 22 were sentenced to death in a rushed, two-day trial,
during which the High Commissioner passed a new law allowing a
military court not to bring defendants to their trial if they disturb
the proceedings.
Two weeks later, after Lechi threatened severe retribution if the 22
would be hanged, their sentence was commuted to life in prison.
For years, the Labor party refused to commemorate the Lechi operation
or its fighters, and only in 1977 was a monument built in their
memory.  It stands on a highway outside Kiryat Ata, at the site where
the British attacked the Lechi force.

 onorati quei fascisti, quegli ustascia?
il fatto che si onorino i fascisti non rende i fascisti meno fascisti,
ma rende fascisti i sedicenti democratici
