Jewish terrorism is terrorism perpetrated by a person or group whose motivations and aims have a predominant Jewish character or influence.
Organizations
There are currently no known active Jewish terrorist groups.[citation needed] The following groups were all started or branched off from those started by Meir Kahane in the 1970s. Kahanist groups are banned in Israel:
- Jewish Defense League: A "right-wing terrorist group" [1], according to the FBI. Although several members have been charged or convicted with offenses related to the handling of explosives, the group is not thought to have any current connection to terrorism. [2].
- Kach and Kahane Chai: (defunct) Israel and the United States. Eden Natan-Zada was involved with Kahanism before killing three people in Shefa-'Amr, an act described by then Prime Minister of Israel Ariel Sharon as "a reprehensible act by a bloodthirsty Jewish terrorist".
- Gush Emunim Underground: (1979-1984) Sometimes called the (Jewish Terror Organization), formed by prominent members of Gush Emunim. [3]
