Arabs in Haifa Form Nazi Club; Well Financed
JTA, Haifa, June 30, 1935
Arab youths here have organized a Nazi club it was learned this week. The club has already established headquarters and goes under the name of The Red Moon.
Apparently the organization has strong backers, for all of its deficits are promptly met, and it seems able to draw upon unlimited financial resources. This is viewed as another manifestation of an intensive Nazi anti-Semitic activity sponsored by the Hitler government, and which has broken out throughout Palestine and the Near East. Nazi agents have appeared in various parts of the country in an attempt to incite the Arabs against the Jews. Recently the Federation of Arab Youth in Palestine petitioned Hitler to help them prevent the Jews from obtaining additional land in Palestine.

Have you read “The Farhud”, by Edwin Black? If you are researching, it might give you some insight.

Holy Land Arab Group Starts Nazi Movement
(N. C. W. C. News Service.)
Jerusalem, Aug. 16. A number of educated Arab youths of Palestine have decided to form a National Defense Party, “to put a stop to the present vacillating policy among the Arabs.” They will adopt Nazi principles for their new’ organization. At the same time, the Executive Committee of the Arab Youth Federation has decided that groups of volunteers among their members will undertake to guard the frontiers of Palestine against unauthorized Jewish immigrants.

Sure. I also read from survivors.
The article that you included also contained one from a Joseph Loewy, who was a JTA Reporter in Danzig who was arrested by the Nazis. I am researching what happened to him. There is a Dr. Joseph Loewy in L.A. I wondered if that is the same lineage. (It almost has to be. At any rate, Mr. Loewy apparently was one of the founders of Nahariya, Israel. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Loewy
He died in 1949 in Israel, so I wonder how he died. He was arrested for the stories he wrote in the Danzig Echo, a local Danzig newspaper. Apparently he wrote about the request from the Arabs to not sell German land (German Colony) to the Jews in Palestine (Jerusalem). Do you know anything about the German Orphanage or its history?
I am not sure, but I think the orphanage was ‘Schneller’.
BTW Schneller orphanage was taken over when WW2 broke out by the British.
Neither the German, nor the Hebrew [ https://he.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%99%D7%95%D7%A1%D7%A3_%D7%9C%D7%95%D7%99 ] page says anything about Danzig/being arrested.
It might be a different J.L.
One a businessman , the other a scholar/journalist.
Thanks..
JERUSALEM (JTA)—
The secret behind the mysterious visit here last April of Dr. Wilhelm F. Frick, Nazi Minister of the Interior, has at last come to light. The Arab press has suddenly begun to print articles propagandizing the Nazi regime and crusading against the Jews. When Frick was here the story was that he had come on his honeymoon, but it now appears that his actual purpose had been the organization of anti-Semitic propaganda. Arab newspapers in Beirut and Bagdad are printing translations of Hitler’s autobiography, “Mein Kampf.”
In Palestine several Arabian newspapers have begun an intensive campaign to spread anti-Jewish propaganda and praise for Hitler. This open incitement in the Egyptian and Palestinian press recalls the fact that a number of Egyptain newspaper have for some time been subsidized by the Nazis. This sub-Arabian the Nazis. This subsidy has now been extended to the Arabain press in other countries as well. From well-informed circles the Jewish Telegraphic Agency learns that a well-organized office has been set up in Cario for the purpose of spreading antiJewish propaganda.

The following paragraph is taken from the Arab Federation, a Jerusalem weekly in English, dated July 7.
The people of Palestine have been watching the recent troubles in Germany with great interest and keen.
They were astonished by the courageous quick actions of Hitler whom the Arabs admire very much.
