The anti-Zionist London Daily Express in a recent issue bitterly denounces jointly, the Zionists, Lord Balfour and Lord Cecil. The entire Cecil family is violently condemned.
Lord Balfour, it declares, pulled Britain into the Zionist morrass and Lord Robert Cecil, Balfour’s nephew, is responsible for having ensnared England into the League of Nations, which it decries as a curse.
The editorial concludes with an appeal that England “check out” of “Hotel Cecil”.
