Item Summary

Special one-time publication of the Israel Workers Party Center (Merkaz Mifleget Po'ale Eretz-Yisrael), the Mapai, the party of the mainstream Labor Zionist Movement. The lead article reports on a British raid of Kibbutz Ramat Ha-Kovesh on November 16, 1943. The kibbutz members resisted. One kibbutz member was killed, 14 were wounded, and 35 were arrested. A prefatory statement criticizes British actions, but maintains that armed resistance is solely for self-defense, a marked difference from the tone of the Irgun and LEHI texts in this collection.
