The newspaper Politiken reported from Berlin today that Germany will set up a new Polish state and a Jewish state on November 1.
The Jewish state will have as its capital the city of Lublin, the newspaper said, and all Jews now in German-held territory in Poland (estimated at more than 2,000,000) will be concentrated within its borders.
