On this date in 1948, an alleged spy was extrajudicially executed by the Israeli Defense Forces. This execution occurred during a short truce punctuating Israel’s War of Independence, but prior to the ceasefire the nascent IDF had become suspicious at Jordan’s gift for accurately targeting critical infrastructure in Jerusalem.
Suspicions came to settle on Meir Tobianski a Lithuania-born former British officer who had become a captain in the Jewish militia Haganah: as an employee of the Jerusalem Electric Corporation, he would have made a great informant for enemy artillerymen.
On June 30, 1948, Tobianski was kidnapped and driven to a depopulated Arab village (present-day Harel, Israel), where four intelligence officers demanded to know if Tobianski had given any information to his British colleagues at the utility (he had), and then declared him condemned as a spy. (Efficiently, they had already prepared the firing squad ahead of time.)
The chief of these four, Is....

Perfidious Albion
Nowhere near as perfidious as the Israelis' terrorist bombing of the King David Hotel two years earlier, which killed 91 people, including many Brits.
wow. very very few people know about this case — and I live in Israel.
yep — the 2 people “officially” given a death sentence in Israel — Adolf Eichmann and Meir Tobianski
Can you count Tobianski as official, though? The story says it was an extrajudicial execution.
Sure thing. You know who headed up the Irgun Israeli attack group (and this was in 1946 the Nuremburg trials still going on- there were Moselyites within the Brit military sent to screw with the “mandate” so it could never become a State as Balfour intended)-— it was Menachem Begin! The Irgun being a breakaway revisionist group of crazies that left Haganah (who did NOT approve this attack at all. How do we know? Teddy Kollek, longtime Mayor of Jerusalem and major Mossad leader for many years- and anti-Nazi Jewish refugee leader as well, stated this clearly multiple times). So your facts are definitely hollywood “LA” type “facts”. The Brits Labor Party/Halifax officers who hated Churchill, and loved Moseley the Brit Nazi— were perfidious in the extreme. This is well known, and completely infiltrated by Arabist loving Kim Philby (Soviet) placed agents.
Menachem Begin (remember jimmah cahtah’s Peace Accords- the IDF gave Sinai back to the Egyptians after kicking their a@@es all over the place. Anwar Sadat was murdered by the Muslim Brotherhood for signing this-and Begin and Sadat share the Nobel Peace Prize). A perfidious terrorist became Prime Minister, and completed his job by cultivating the Muslim Brotherhood- of which obamaumao the first was and is a member. Imagine that. Brit Nazis vs Israeli Socialist terrorist. Seems a fitting response. There are still people alive who remember all this.
So here we are, still dealing with the jew-hatred of obama the Kenyan Communist, and his embeds and lackeys and his puppet demento- Joey Bag of Poop. Helping the Muslim Brotherhood who tell us we must...submit.
Yes- the most recent example Boris Johnson torpedoing Ukraine peace arrangements— because... why German NATO/EU interests. Boris fought Brexit remember. The Queen got Brexit- good for her and olde England. Get the muzzies out, now UK! As should the US.
Seriously? If Mosley had so many admirers in the British government, why is it that Britain imprisoned Mosley and many of his followers during much of the war?
You assume they imprisoned them all? Ridiculous. Churchill put Moseley away a fortnight after he became Prime Minister in 1940, and the Labour types (Communist backed) continued to harass the nation of the UK- for their own gains.
Moseley was released from internment (he was not imprisoned under Brit law but interned under wartime regulatons per Parliament) because Parliament insisted, to house internment in 1943, 3 years before the 1946 bombing. The Israeli debacle became a vehicle for Moseley’s re-entry into Parliament, btw.
Moseley had many Brit army followers throughout the war, and notably on the International Control Commission after German surrender in 1945. Postwar recruitment of Nazi intel done with their influence. Instrumental ones inside Brit forces in the Mandate. Begin was a Polish soldier, most do not know. Revolt from Haganah is what created Irgun, and Begin was right in the middle of it, having survived Poland/Soviet/Nazi waves. No surprise he would bomb the Brits, working for future Mossad.
I assume everyone who was a card-carrying BUF member was imprisoned or purged from the government.
Are you speculating that secret sympathizers remained in the government? But since they were secret (no official ties to the BUF), it's just speculation.
Well lets just say you can put an * next to his name. It’s official in the same way that Trump is a convicted by jury felon.
Tobianski was killed by a drumhead court by a business/personal enemy Isser Beeri who accused him of espionage due to some direct hits from jordanian forces on Beeri’s interests that Beeri used to “officially” take out a rival.
Or something along that line.
