Zionism is ipso facto aggression and detrimental to Moslem welfare and is directly or indirectly ousting Moslems from the control of their land and their Holy Places, says a resolution adopted to-day by the Moslem Conference meeting here.
Great Britain was also attacked at the Conference to-day by several of the delegates, especially by one of the Syrian delegates, Riadh Bey, who accused Britain of having put the Jews into Palestine and therefore of being responsible for the Jewish position in Palestine which menaced Islam. It was Britain, with her Imperialistic mandates and colonial policy that is to blame for all the troubles in the East, he said.
Shaukat Ali, the Indian Moslem leader at the Round Table Conference, reproved Riadh Bey for his attack on Britain. We Moslems are opposed to the Jewish invasion in Palestine, he said, but we must maintain our friendly relations with Great Britain.
