No campaign of terror ‘orchestrated’ by Jewish groups in Haifa

While everyone is entitled to hold their personal opinions, however misguided, it behoves them at least not to distort facts in order to support them.

I was, therefore, shocked to read the blatantly tendentious letter from Con Hayes (‘A reign of terror began in Haifa’, September 17).

He is correct that “With the passing of the UN partition resolution on November 29, 1947, the situation deteriorated immediately” in Haifa, but his claim of a “campaign of terror orchestrated by Jewish paramilitaries” is one-sided to say the least.
