    One of the founding terrorist groups of israel tried to work with Hitler to colonize Palestine

    Lehi (militant group)

    It initially sought an alliance with Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany. Believing that Nazi Germany was a lesser enemy of the Jews than Britain, Lehi twice attempted to form an alliance with the Nazis, proposing a Jewish state based on “nationalist and totalitarian principles, and linked to the German Reich by an alliance”

    Former Lehi leader Yitzhak Shamir became Prime Minister of Israel in 1983.
