Original Note:
Menachem Begin did not sanction the killing of people. It has been established that he wanted to avoid deaths. Warnings were issued before the blast which were however ignored or insufficient. The Jewish leadership condemned the attack. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2021-07-22/ty-article/this-day-in-jewish-history-irgun-blows-up-british-hq-at-jerusalems-king-david-hotel/0000017f-f5f9-ddde-abff-fdfd85990000 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_David_Hotel_bombing
