Arab Exchange Urged on Israel
Transcribed from the clipping
“A Moslem judge in Nazareth has proposed to Israel’s President, Izhak Ben-Zvi, that the Arab minority in Israel be exchanged for Jews in Arab countries. Sheik Taher el Tabari, a kadi or judge, told Ben-Zvi that such an exchange is the only way to avert a human tragedy.”
Context added by this archive
Four sentences from the Associated Press. A Palestinian judge inside Israel proposes that his own community be traded away, and calls it the only way to avert a tragedy. The paper gives the proposal no context, no reply from anyone it would move, and no second source.
