6th Airborne Division in Palestine
edit- ... that in July 1946, the 6th Airborne Division placed a cordon around Tel Aviv and searched every building looking for those responsible for the King David Hotel bombing?

Date is good. It is long enough. Nice and neutral. Well sourced with inline citations, only thing I wondered about is whether or not the Second World War which is mentioned in the section titled "Jewish resistance movements" should be the First World War? I mean, it is sort of hard to form an organization in 1921 with left-over arms from a 1939-1945 conflict. No copyright violations that I could find in the online sources, and I view the nominator as completely trustworthy. Hook is short enough with 168 characters, absolutely interesting, cited to book and is nice and neutral. Good to go. Manxruler (talk) 23:31, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
