Text of Irgun radio broadcast condemning David Ben-Gurion, Moshe Shertok, and the Jewish Agency for their openness to allowing the British to remain in Palestine to enact the Partition Plan, calling them arrogant and blind. (This document is a duplicate of Item 131, but this document also contains a small piece of paper providing details about tuning into the broadcast.).
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.
