THREAD: In the 1930s, Irish-born #ChaimHerzog emigrated to Palestine, where he joined Jewish terror group the #Haganah. Three decades later, Herzog became the first Israeli military governor of the illegally occupied #WestBank and #eastJerusalem.
Herzog was the (mostly ceremonial) #PresidentOfIsrael from 1983 to 1993, when the illegal occupation of #Gaza and the #WestBank continued. Illegal settlements on the West Bank grew rapidly.
