Members of Congress today received copies of an elaborate pamphlet, mailed from Amman, Jordan, containing anti-Jewish propaganda. The booklet, printed in English, contains photographs alleging to depict Israel “atrocities” against the Arabs.
The booklet alleges that Israelis practice “genocide” against Arab children. Under the guise of telling the story of the Arab refugees, the booklet attacks American Jews. It is entitled “The Rising Tide of Terror or Three Years of an ‘Armistice’ in the Holy Land.” The printing was done in the Arab part of Jerusalem by the Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in February 1952, for mailing to American Congressmen.
