Was Ben Gurion behind the Israeli terrorist attack agains Count Folke Bernadotte? One of the chief assassins was a close personal friend of Ben Gurion! You should read Moshe Sharett's diary if you really want to understand Israeli terrorism and deception towards the West. Sharett was a Zionist insider, but a man with conscience. *On September 17, 1948, four months after the official establishment of Israel, U.N. Palestine Mediator Count Folke Bernadotte was assassinated by members of an Israeli terrorist group, the so-called Stern Gang, while driving in the Israeli-controlled sector of Jerusalem. The U.S. government, at the time, believed the identity of the perpetrators was known to Israel's Prime Minister David Ben Gurion, butthe perpetrators were never prosecuted. Thirty years later one of them, Yehoshva Zeitler-known to be a close friend of Ben Gurion's- acknowledged that he was one of the assassins and explained that "we executed Bernadotte because he was a one-man institution who endangered the status of Jerusalem by his declared intention of turning her into an international city. He was hostile to Israel from the moment the statewas established and actually laid the foundation for the present U.N. policy of supporting the Arabs." The message to other potential pro-Arab sympathizers was clear.
