About me:
Avraham Stern, A Jewish freedom fighter. Known by his pen name and (underground name) Yair A member of the central command of the the Etzel - Irgun along side of his close friend David Razel.
>
In 1940 Yair broke off from the Irgun (Irgun Tzva'i Le'umi - Etzel), and founded what later became know as LEHI(the Fighters for the Freedom of Israel. His group was coined by the British as the "Stern Gang". They took on the task of chasing the British out of the land of Israel efore the Jewish State was declared.
Yair broke away due to a disagreement over priorities: the Irgun under the leadership of Raziel and influence of Zev Jaotinsky, held that the fight against the British had to be suspended for the duration of World War II, since the British army was engaged in fighting the Nazis. Yair held that the British constituted the enemy of the Jewish People no less than the Germans, as they were actively preventing Jewish lives from being saved, by closing the gates of the Land of Israel to Jewish refugees. The fate of the Jewish People, he argued, would be determined by an independent Jewish State, and the obstacle to that independence was Britain rather than Germany.
In February 1942 (the 25th Shevat), Stern was murdered by the British police in an apartment in the center of Tel Aviv.
