'Genocide' is Now Practiced by Arabs in their Campaign Against Jews
FRESH FROM THE WIRES.
By HIRSCH WOLFSON.
Paris, France, (WNS)—Some 800,000 to a million Jews living in the Arab lands of Africa and the Middle-East are today in mortal danger of annihilation. They are being subjected to a wave of persecution of Hitler prototype and are being held as hostages no less, in the calculated scheme of reactionary Arab leaders to prevent the fulfillment of the UN decision to establish independent Jewish and Arab states in Palestine.
Much of the news about what is happening to the Jews in these countries today—from Libya and Tripoli in Africa to the new Dominion of Pakistan on the subcontinent of India— is prevented from reaching the outside world. But enough information is available to paint a very grave picture of the conditions of the Jews in this part of the world.
Significantly enough , the worst anti-Jewish outbreaks reported to date, have occurred in in the British protectorates of Aden and Bahrien. A pogrom occurred in Aden (on the Red Sea) on December 2 , 1947 in which 76 Jews are known to have been killed and at least 64 wounded. Of all the Jewish homes in Aden, one-third were destroyed, the majoritv of all Jewish stores were robbed or put to the torch, and four synagogues have been burned and the only two Jewish schools were also set afire. In the Bahrien Islands on the Persian Gulf 41 Jewish casualties have been reported, and homes and synagogues have been burned.
Other serious outbreaks have occurred in Aleppo, Syria, where ten synagogues, five Jewish schools, 50 shops and other Jewish property were destroyed; and in Peshewar, Pakistan, where many Jewish people were killed, their homes sacked , and the entire Jewish population had to be evacuated.
This anti-Semitic activity is by no means something foreign , or new to the political climate of these Arab countries. In a number of these countries, anti-Jewish restrictions have prevailed for many years and anti-Semitic outbreaks have occurred frequently.
In Algeria, Tunisia and French Morocco, the Vichyite regime during the war introduced anti-Jewiah laws by which Jewish businesses were Aryan-ized and anti-Semitism encouraged among the local population. The Jewish population of 375,000 in these countries thus endured great suffering, which has hardly been alleviated since the end of the war.
In Libya , occupied by the Germans during the war, the Jewish community of 25,000 was subjected to a sadistic pogromist campaign in the usual manner of the Nazis. Liberation and occupation by Britain brought no relief here either.
In 1945 a new series of pogroms occurred in Tripoli , in which about 80 Jews were killed and more than 250 wounded.
Everywhere the Arab league, now leading the fight against the UN Palestine descision, has for many years dome its vest to stir up the native population against the Jews. And governments in Arab league countries such as in Egypt, Iraq , Syria and Lebanon have not hesitated to introduce restrictions working great hardships on the Jews.
The latest outbreaks herald a turn to a much worse situation, according to information obtained by the World Jewish Congress. It is reported that the Arab league has now submitted to its member states a series of proposed anti-Jewish laws modelled after Hitler's infamous Nuremburg decrees against the Jews. By these laws, declares A. L. Easterman, political secretary of the World Jewish Congress, the Jews in the Arab countries would be deprived of their political and civic rights, reduced to the status of "foreigners" and have their means of livelihood severely limited and possibly eliminated altogether.
This action against the Jews of those lands is part of the general conspiriicy of the Arab league to prevent the ful-fillment of the UN decision on Palestine. It is inspired by the ex-Mufti, Haj Amin el Husseini, who aided Hitler in exterminating the Jews of Europe and now wants to ape Hitler in the Arab lands as part of a campaign to increase his own power in the Arab world.
World Jewish Congress leaders have rightfully termed the pogroms against the Jews in Arab lands, together with the contemplated anti-Jewish laws, as Genocide, which has been declared a crime under international law by the General Assembly of the United Nations.
The Arab states emulating Hitler's anti-Jewish policies are members of the United Nations and bound by the UN Charter and the decision of the UN Assembly taken in November, 1946, calling on governments "to take the most prompt and energetic steps. . . . to put an immediate end to religious and so-called racial persecution and discrimination. . . ."
With full justification, World Jewish Congress has called for investigation and action by the UN in regard to the deteriorating circumstances of the Jews in Arab Lands. The need for effective measures to protect the Jews these countries is part of the need for forthright UN action to implement its own decision on Palestine. The attitude of the Arab league in defying the UN decision and in conspiring to commit the UN designated crime of genocide is the most serious challenge yet to the authority of the United Nations Organization.
Not only to relieve a persecuted people, but in the name of all humanity and to protect world peace and se-curity, the most forthright UN action is needed to cope with the serious situation that has developed as a result of the Palestine decision.
It was the Arabs, Muslims who rejected then the “two state solution.”
And 77 years later they’re still holding a grudge. Sad and pathetic.
Of course it’s the grudge / being upset for losing. That cult doesn’t care about lost lives, but about being humiliated. If Israel , now, takes back a big part of Gaza, only then will they realize defeat. Again.
1947:
The Arab Higher Committee published a leaflet stating: “The Arabs have taken the Final Solution to the Jewish Problem.”
