Arabs and Jews in Palestine

Arabs and Jews in Palestine — The Philadelphia Inquirer, 23 May 1936
The Philadelphia Inquirer · Philadelphia, Pennsylvania · 23 May 1936

Transcribed from the clipping

"Racial prejudice has played a large part in history. One modern instance is Nazi Germany... Another is found in the conflict between Arabs and Jews in Palestine. The former claim the country as their own and resent the colonization of Jews as an intrusion." It goes on to describe "Muslim fanaticism" and land "largely overrun by Arab tribes."

Context added by this archive

The paper’s own unsigned voice, using "colonization" plainly in 1936.
