	HAGANAH
		The members of the Haganah also developed networks for the clandestine acquisition of arms within the British army, and they cared for Jewish survivors and refugees in the countries of Europe in which they were stationed at the close of the war.
		At the center of the resistance activities was the "illegal" mass immigration from Europe and North Africa, with the armed struggle limited to attempts to score direct hits against the operational devices installed to interfere with "illegal" immigration (radar devices, boats that deported immigrants to Cyprus, etc.).
		The name of the Haganah was incorporated into the official name of the army of the new state: Æeva Haganah le-Israel (Israel Defense Forces).

	Haganah - History of the Israeli Underground Group
		The existence of the Haganah was formalized by the Achdut Ha'avoda party, which combined Poalei Ziyon and the Federation of Agricultural workers, in its convention in Kibbutz Kinneret in June of 1920.
		In the Jerusalem area, the Haganah had to battle the blockade imposed by the Mufti's gangs as well as attacks on Jerusalem and especially the Jewish quarter, and attacks on Gush Etzion that were backed by the Transjordan Arab Legion.
		The Haganah briefly held Latrun, which was to become a critical position in the battle for the roads to Jerusalem, but gave it up because nobody understood the immense strategic value of this commanding hilltop position, overlooking the road to Jerusalem.

		Haganah proved itself the popular militia, disciplined for the defence, and defence alone, of Palestinian Jewry." Not everyone agreed with their policy of restraint, however, such as the Irgun and Lehi, who advocated a more violent response to Arab terror.
		Although hardly anyone in the yishuv knew of the extent of Hitler's extermination of the Jews in Europe in 1941, everyone was aware that he was brutal to the Jews and thus the Jews in the yishuv began to prepare for a worst-case scenario of a Nazi invasion.
		Haganah men of course continued to maintain alertness for the possibility of Arab riots during the war, which would have been of far less consequence than a German invasion.

		When Shimon Monita, a Haganah spy who was infiltrating the Lehi, caught wind of the IZL-Lehi plan to attack Deir Yassin, he rushed to report the news to his contact man in Haganah intelligence, evidently unaware of the high-level coordination between Haganah, IZL and Lehi regarding the planned attack.
		Haganah soldier Daniel Spicehandler said he saw "maybe some fifty dead."81 Shimon Monita, the Haganah spy in Lehi, estimated 60 Arabs dead; the Lehi's Moshe Idelstein recalled the number 61 being used at the time.
		The Haganah's Mordechai Gihon, who was there on the afternoon of the battle itself, thought the number was in the vicinity of 150.82 IZL commander Menachem Begin, who was briefed on the battle by his officers, wrote that the number was approximately 130.83

	n e w ! PBM Materia:l Haganah
		Haganah was a Jewish self-defence organisation set up by the Jewish Agency to protect Jewish settlers from Palestinian attacks and to organise illegal immigration: it ultimately became the Israeli army.
		The British mandate administration did not recognise Haganah, being wary of having an underground guerilla army in the country, but during the 1930s tolerated it, given the growing resistance of the Palestinians to the establishment of a Jewish homeland and their own inability to protect Jewish settlements.
		During the Palestinian uprising of 1936-9 there was unofficial co-operation between the British armed forces and Haganah, the British sometimes arming the groups, although possession of weapons was officially illegal.

		Haganah Radio was the most extensive and well organized of the Jewish clandestine radio services, having started transmissions first from Tel Aviv in 1940 to protest a British law banning British press censorship and the sale of certain types of land to Jews (A. Avnerre, advisor, Israeli Broadcasting Authority, personal communication, January 3, 1992).
		If the Haganah was the primary illegal military organization destined to play an important part in Israel's political and military future, two other organizations that were also broadcasters discussed herein were seen as renegades in the Jewish struggle to drive the British from Palestine and establish a Jewish state.
		Haganah broadcasts were almost always less strident than those of the other two groups because Haganah leaders saw their organization as being synonymous with the government and the legal broadcasting organization of the new Jewish state.

	Lenni Brenner: The Iron Wall (5. The Founder of the Haganah)
		His Haganah was designed to compel the imperialists to integrate their Jewish Orangemen directly into the military apparatus.
		Storrs was supposed to have been told of the arrival of the marchers but no one had remembered to tell him; in the end the British force on the spot consisted of an Arab police detachment in the charge of a young British lieutenant.
		There were no Haganah men in the Jewish quarter: most of its inhabitants were bitterly opposed to Zionism, they wanted no patrols there as they did not want the Arabs to identify them with the hated Zionists.

		Haganah highlighted the site in September and it's apparently still up and running, so unless they switched ISP's, it seems that their efforts are not always successful.

		For its first ten years, the Haganah was subordinated to the elected public institutions of the Histadrut, since the elected political institutions of the Zionist Organization and of the yishuv were not yet prepared to accept responsibility for this illegal military entity.
		The Haganah educates its members to allegiance to the Jewish people and Eretz Israel, love of freedom and Jewish revival, courage, endurance in the face of suffering and adversity, willingness to sacrifice, respect for human life, honesty of character, simplicity and respect for human and Jewish values.
		Thus, it was the Haganah that was responsible for defense, security, retaliation, and counterattack against the Arab-Palestinian enemy, the foreign Arab volunteers and the Arab regular armies which invaded Palestine after 30 November 1947, the beginning of the War of Independence.

		A Haganah intelligence officer who described the incident to his superiors reported that according to Lehi officer David Gottlieb, those of his men who disembarked from their vehicle to return fire said that the attackers appeared to be Arab soldiers rather than local villagers.

		What makes haganah different from other martial arts is that you don't have to study several years until you can reach the more advanced techniques.
		Haganah training is based on military training principles, where you train all of the techniques in rotations, each of the rotations taking few months to run through.
		The haganah system is designed so that you can learn all the moves and techniques from the book and film, therefore you don't necessarily need a teacher (although having one wouldn't hurt).
