Nehemias Resnitzky, general secretary of the DAIA, the representative organizations of Argentine Jewry, reported a resurgence of Arab-inspired anti-Jewish action, abetted in part by the worsening general economic situation and social tensions. Resnitsky reporting to the DAIA’s monthly plenary session, stated that El Fatah’s campaign in Argentina was growing bolder. He said the Palestinian terrorist group holds open meetings and places advertisements in newspapers in an effort to recruit the support of Argentine political and church figures. He said the meetings were poorly attended.
