“A Special Edition in English Issued on the Occasion of the Visit to Palestine of Lord Balfour, the Statesman with Whose Name is Associated the Declaration Which to the Arabs Signifies the Death Knell of all the Hopes they Cherished When the Victorious British Armies Entered their Country in 1918.” Printed Newspaper Broadsheet. English text. Masthead in Arabic.
Complete in 4 pages. Neat taped repairs. Folio.
Jaffa: Wednesday, March 25th 1925
The Arab press seized on the visit of Lord James Balfour’s highly symbolic appearance at the dedication ceremony of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem to voice their extreme displeasure with the decidedly pro-Zionist direction Palestine had taken since its conquest by the British in 1918. The newspaper suggests that Jews are exerting control over Britain through financial means with the intention of slowly gaining world domination.
