Sort of?
The Stern Gang (Lehi) tried to join the Nazis with the states goal of fighting the British.
After Stern was killed by the British, his gang was led by a man who later went on to be the Israeli Prime Minister in the early 80s, he was also Netanyahu's political mentor.
The second guy, whose name I can't be bothered to remember, pulled back from actively trying to ally with the Nazis, but the "academic" wing of Lehi did start using the words "god's chosen people" while pushing some race science with some obvious file marks where a serial would normally go.
But that's just one very influential side of the story.
Mossad assassinated the other side back in the 90s.
plus when zionists helped Nazi Germany circumnavigate boycotts by agreeing to ethnically cleanse themselves. (haavara agreement).
And made a deal with antisemites in Britain to hopefully ethnically cleanse the Jewish communities in Britain. the only Jewish person in government denounced it. But that's the Balfour declaration.
Then looked down at Holocaust survivors.
