'Irgun' are a terrorist organisation who later became the IDF
Wiki: "Two of the operations for which the Irgun is best known are the bombing of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem on 22 July 1946 and the Deir Yassin massacre that killed at least 107 Palestinian Arab villagers, including women and children, carried out together with Lehi on 9 April 1948.
The organization committed acts of terrorism against the British, whom it regarded as illegal occupiers, and against Arabs.[7] In particular the Irgun was described as a terrorist organization by the United Nations, British, and United States governments; in media such as The New York Times newspaper;[8][9] as well as by the Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry,[10][11] the 1946 Zionist Congress[12] and the Jewish Agency.[13]"
"Several prominent members of the Irgun, a Zionist paramilitary group that operated in Mandatory Palestine, later held positions in the Israeli government:
Menachem Begin - Leader of the Irgun from 1943-1948. Later served as Prime Minister of Israel from 1977 to 1983.
Yitzhak Shamir - A leader of the Lehi group, which split from the Irgun in 1940. Later served two terms as Prime Minister of Israel from 1983-1984 and 1986-1992.
Ezer Weizman - Irgun commander and later Israeli Defense Force commander. Served as President of Israel from 1993 to 2000.
Haim Landau - An Irgun member who participated in numerous operations. Served on the Israeli Supreme Court from 1953, including as President of the Court.
Yaakov Meridor - A commanding officer in the Irgun and signed Israel's Declaration of Independence. Later served as minister of justice and finance.
---While the Irgun was considered a terrorist group by the British authorities at the time, after Israeli independence several key former Irgun members went on to hold prominent positions in Israeli politics and society over the next several decades"
