You listed this incident twice - once for 1946 & again for 1947. It had nothing to do with the Middle East:

September 30
One US soldier killed when ambushed by terrorists at Fort McKinley, Philippines.


You listed this one three times in two different years:

July 22
Ninety people killed and forty five wounded after Jewish terrorists blow up the King David Hotel in
Jerusalem, Palestine, which was home to British government and military offices. The terrorists held
workers at pistol point while they planted the explosives in the basement of the hotel.


You listed this one two times in two different years:

October 31
British embassy in Rome, Italy, wrecked by two bombs in suit cases left by Jewish Irgun terrorists.
No casualties.


Apparently the Irgun didn't commit enough terrorist actions for you so you have to list them each several times plus add in some incidents from the other side of the world to make the list longer. As a historian you suck. Can you repost with the correct years and with the extraneous material removed?

The incidents you relate are not secrets. Most histories mention these incidents. For example:

In the single month of July 1938, the Irgun killed 76 Palestinian civilians in terrorist attacks.
