The official publication of the pro-fascist and anti-Semitic organization, Alianza Libertadora Nacionalista, in its current issue, published an attack on Jews in this country, repeating its customary charge that Argentine Jews do not consider themselves “Argentines, but they wish to have all the ###hts of Argentine citizens.”

The publication–Alianza–cites as an example of alleged Jewish dual loyalty the case of Israeli Foreign Ministry official Moises Toff who “did not renounce his Argentine ### zenship.” The paper also maintains that the presence of a Jewish Agency office in Buenos Aires “is a danger to Argentine sovereignty.” Alianza also published a pious caricature of Israeli President Dr. Chaim Weiznann.
