British behavior can also be proved by how they treated one of their own if he supported the Jews.

It may surprise you to know, if you don’t, that a British Christian military officer can be considered the “father of the IDF”

Orde Wingate was a British Christian Zionist who trained the Haganah and the Palmach, the fighting forces of the Jewish Agency, in how to fight Arab attacks.

Those he trained became the first officer corp of the IDF.

For doing this, the British punished him by transferring him away and prohibiting him from ever again entering Palestine.
