Charging Zionist-Revisionists were being “robbed” of immigration certificates to Palestine, the world executive of the right-wing Zionist group issued yesterday a proclamation of war against the Jewish Agency for Palestine.
Bringing to an end a prolonged armistice between the two organizations, the proclamation called on all Revisionist groups throughout the world “to organize a bitter campaign” for rights to the certificates. Rousing of public opinion “by all methods possible to the robbery committed” was urged.
The proclamation at the same time warned that Palestine was on the eve of new disturbances which, it predicted, would be even more serious than those recently ended.
The campaign against the Jewish Agency was declared necessary on the additional ground that “the new blood storm which is approaching Palestine requires protectors of Jewish lives and property” who are willing to sacrifice their lives for them.
