Jews in the 20th Century

British Palestine, 1940
(Collier’s Magazine, 1940)

For the first time since the Balfour Declaration was decreed, the Jews in British Palestine organized an avenging force and attacked numerous Arab villages after suffering random murders for 23 years.

The spot for which the Jews had yearned proved to be about as quiet as a live volcano.
