Jews in the Czech Protectorate are threatened with reprisals in the Nazi press for the effective anti-Nazi propaganda which is being carried on from London over the BBC Czechoslovak hours.
Declaring that “the Jews in London are responsible for the inciting broadcasts,” the Nazi newspaper Prager Abend says: “These London Jews exhort Czech employees to work slowly and badly, thus inducing them to risk dismissal. Should this criminal audacity succeed it would be necessary to consider reprisals against Protectorate Jews to make those Jews hiding in the London under-world realize that their inciting propaganda harms their own race and not only the Czechs whose fate is of no interest to them.”
The success of the Free Czech propaganda is unwittingly admitted by an article in the newspaper Narodni Stred which complains that “unfortunately some naive people prefer to believe emigrant Jews rather than their own editors who love the nation more than these blind friends of Jews to whom the Star of David means more than the Czech Badge.”
