A monthly devoted exclusively to anti-Semitism, and called the Inkilab, appeared today. It described its purpose as to combat the Jews in general and the Turkish Jews in particular, and accuses them of being traitors during the War, particularly along the Palestine front. It invites the Turks to follow the example set by Adolf Hitler in Germany, and congratulates the police for forbidding a Jewish demonstration against the persecutions of the Jews in Germany.

The publication heatedly attacks journalists and writers siding with the Jews against the Nazis, and winds up with a demand that Jews be excluded from Turkish citizenship because they are members of a foreign race.
