World War 3: French JDL preparing to battle Palestinians, JDL have launched decades of terrorist acts in the U.S., but the U.S. has never retaliated

According to a Haaretz report, the French Jewish Defense League (La Ligue de Defense Juive) has recruited people to go fight Palestinians.

Representatives of the French JDL say they are going to defend Zionist settlers, who’ve taken land from the Palestinians.  The planned dates for the start of their mission is between September 19 and 25.

All volunteers for the mission have prior military experience, including a leader who is a former French Foreign Legionnaire.

In the past the FBI has stated that the Jewish Defense League is a known terrorist organization.  According to the FBI, the JDL has been involved in plotting terrorist attacks within the United States.

From 1981 to 1985 there were 15 JDL terrorist attacks within the United States. In 1972 the JDL bombed a Manhattan, New York building, killing one and wounding 13.  In 1980 members of the JDL used a letter-bomb to murder California secretary Patricia Wilkerson.  In 1985 the same JDL members bombed a Santa Anna, California office, killing Alex Odeh.

One newspaper quoted the FBI as saying the Jewish Defense League is “the second most active terrorist group” in the United States.

Of interest is that while the FBI has stated the JDL is a terrorist organization that has launched attacks within the United States, the U.S. Department of State does not list the JDL as a terrorist organization on its list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations.
