Bolshevism and Zionism 93

One of the first rioters during that bloody Easter after World War I

Jabotinsky, whom the British authorities sentenced to 15 years in prison,

was released immediately on the arrival of the Jew Si.r Herbert Samuel.

Jabotinsky was one of the original Russian Bolsheviki come down to

practice the gentle arts of that tribe in Palestine. The Government of

Palestine since the British occupation was, and is , Jewish. Sir Herbert

Samuel was the British High Commissioner, representing the power of

the British Government which took up the Mandate for ~alestine. This

founded the Jewish power which has been maintained and increased to its

present virulent state. The head of the judicial department was also a

Jew. Christian or Muslim judges who did not give the Jew a shade the

better of the proceedings were ousted - condition familiar in New York.

Chaim Weizman became head of the Department of Works, and later

emerged as the successor to Levin as the leader of Zionism. The Jewish

government of the "new Palestine" was very much like that of Bolshevik

Russia-mostly foreign . Practically every big American city was

represented in the first Bolshevik governmt;nt of Russia. There is another

full-fledged government waiting in America for service whenever

necessary.

LAND-GRABBING

The methods adopted to get the land of Palestine away from the Arabs

in the early days of the Zionist invasion were such as will fill the

world with indignation once the world is permitted to k,now what was

done . That it was done with the knowledge and approval of Zionist

Commissioner Samuel is indicated by the fact that he suspended the

activities of a British officer who endeavored to stop the abuse. It was

the old game of lending money at exorbitant rate of interest to Arabs hard

pressed by the ravages of war and crop failure, and then seizing their

land when they could not pay. The bank that did this was the

Anglo-Palestine Bank, a Zionist concern. This British officer, to save the

people and the land, made arrangements with a British bank to lend them

money at 61h% with five years to pay. If payment failed, the land was

to go to the government for redistribution, not to the Zionist bank. This

was the humane plan which the Zionist High Commissioner forbade,

whereupon the British officer resigned. The well considered action of
