In 1945 the Jewish resistance organizations in Palestine unified and established the Jewish Resistance Movement . The movement began attacking the British authority . Following the King David Hotel bombing , Chaim Weizmann , president of the WZO appealed to the movement to cease all further military activity until a decision would be reached by the Jewish Agency . The Jewish Agency backed Weizmann 's recommendation to cease activities , a decision reluctantly accepted by the Haganah , but not by the Irgun and the Lehi . The JRM was dismantled and each of the founding groups continued operating according to their own policy
