Printed text of July 24, 1946 radio broadcast from the Irgun's underground radio station. The text discusses the Irgun bombing of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem. It provides an overview of the advance warnings of the attack phoned in to the hotel, the offices of the Palestine Post, and the French consulate, located near the hotel.

Collection

Part of Underground Publications and Ephemera Printed in Palestine at End of the Palestine Mandate

These documents capture a fascinating moment in Jewish history, a turmoil-filled “interregnum” of sorts, between the destruction of European Jewry in World War II and the establishment of Israel: the violent fight against the British, efforts to rescue Jewish refugees in Europe and smuggle them into Eretz Israel, diplomatic maneuvering over the end of the British Mandate, the proposed partition of Palestine, and anticipation of a war with the Arab world. But this collection does more than merely capture this moment. It adds nuance and layers to a dominant discourse that too often suffers from overly simplistic, ahistorical, and context-free narratives about the history of Zionism, Israel, and the Arab-Israeli conflict.
