An appeal to the Government of Israel, the Israeli Parliament and Jewish institutions not to “stain your hands with German money” was issued by a mass meeting held here to protest against direct negotiations with Germany for reparations for crimes against the Jews committed under the Nazi regime.
The meeting, which was addressed by David Shimoni, the poet; David Pinsky, the playwright; and Rabbi Mordecai Nurock, a member of Parliament, denounced negotiations with Germany as “national treason.”
