"BenGurion's orders to shell the Altalena"

No, it was because the other militias broke an agreement which threatened the legitimacy of new central authority which the other factions had agreed to.

Ever hear of the Whiskey Rebellion, BTW?

Where do you get your history, Justin Raimondo? Or Noam Chomsky?

I knew there had been one during the early days of US government; I was not aware that one had occurred during Israel's early days as well. What an interesting coincidence!

I don't know either of those two fellers. But my maternal grandfather's account as one of the participants involved was of particular interest to me, as have been those firsthand versions I've heard from some of those who were also there, who likely opened up to me because of my lineal connection to him.
