1st edition. Original single fold wrappers, 12mo, [4] pages. Service includes: National Anthem sung by Cantor Adolph Katchko, Invocation by David de Sola Pool; Greetings by Rabbi Joseph Zeitlin; Prayer for the United Nations by Rabbi J. X. Cohen; [Sermon] by Rabbi Abba Hillel Silver; Benediction by Rabbi Abraham M. Heller; and closing with the singing of Hatikvah. On March 25, 1948, 6 days prior to this event, US President Harry Truman made the following statement regarding the upcoming vote on Palestine at the UN: This country vigorously supported the plan for partition with economic union recommended by the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine and by the General Assembly. We have explored every possibility consistent with the basic principles of the Charter for giving effect to that solution. Unfortunately, it has become clear that the partition plan cannot be carried out at this time by peaceful means. We could not undertake to impose this solution on the people of Palestine by the use of American troops, both on Charter grounds and as a matter of national policy. The United Kingdom has announced its firm intention to abandon its mandate in Palestine on May 15. Unless emergency action is taken, there will be no public authority in Palestine on that date capable of preserving law and order. Violence and bloodshed will descend upon the Holy Land. Large-scale fighting among the people of that country will be the inevitable result . These dangers are imminent. Responsible governments in the United Nations cannot face this prospect without acting promptly to prevent it. The United States has proposed to the Security Council a temporary United Nations trusteeship for Palestine to provide a government to keep the peace. Such trusteeship was proposed only after we had exhausted every effort to find a way to carry out partition by peaceful means. Trusteeship is not proposed as a substitute for the partition plan but as an effort to fill the vacuum soon to be created by the termination of the mandate on May 15. The trusteeship does not prejudice the character of the final political settlement. It would establish the conditions of order which are essential to a peaceful solution.

1920rif. 218041920. Early views of life under British colonial rule in Mandatory Palestine. 1920s photo archive consisting of 12 silver gelatin photographs measuring around 3.5" x 2.5" each. Circa 1920s. An evocative and unusually varied visual archive from 1920s Mandatory Palestine this collection captures everyday life and social hierarchies during the British occupation of the Levant. Taken during a critical era following the fall of the Ottoman Empire and before the full thrust of Zionist settlement these images offer rare glimpses of Palestinian Arab communities-including women clerics children merchants and street workers-across both rural and urban landscapes. Several photos appear to depict scenes in and around Jerusalem including a striking street portrait of an elder man in traditional Arab dress with a keffiyeh and striped abaya standing beside a fez-capped official or guard in front of a stone façade possibly in the Old City. Another image shows a procession of clergy and camel handlers near what appears to be a medieval gate or fortress wall-indicative of pilgrimage traffic or religious observance with camels loaded for transport. A powerful composition captures three women in dark veils and flowing garments speaking beneath a tree with rural hills and a village in the distance. Street life and labor are emphasized in one image where a young boy and several veiled women draw water at a stone cistern; one woman balances a large vessel on her head her face and body almost entirely obscured. A separate print shows a group of women-some in Western dress and hats others in religious garb-posing together at the edge of a sea or lake possibly near Tiberias or the Sea of Galilee. . Another photograph depicts a group of men in keffiyehs and Western suits gathered in what may be a town square-possibly Amman or Ramleh-with modern construction visible in the background illustrating the mixing of colonial infrastructure and traditional society. Photographs of Mandatory Palestine from this transitional decade-between Ottoman defeat and the Arab Revolt -are increasingly rare especially those depicting ordinary Palestinians rather than military or Zionist institutions. Very good condition overall. unknown

1970rif. 217441970. Palestine Liberation Organization. Basic Facts About the Palestine Problem issued circa 1970 documents the PLO's effort to shape American and international opinion through its New York information office. Organized as twenty emphatic questions the flyer presents the organization's positions on Palestinian landownership the 1947 United Nations partition recommendation displacement Israeli military policy discrimination against Palestinian citizens of Israel and Israel's relationship to Western power. The material records a political communication system through a compact English-language handout revealing how the PLO selected statistics legal arguments and anticolonial language for circulation among American activists diplomats and other readers and providing primary-source evidence for the study of Palestinian nationalism Cold War propaganda Arab American political organizing and debates over Israel and Palestine after 1967. Research on Palestinian offices in the United States identifies the New York delegation opened in 1965 as both an information center and the PLO's unofficial American embassy; among its earliest widely distributed texts was Fayez A. Sayegh's closely related Do You Know Twenty Basic Facts about the Palestine Problem. Basic Facts About the Palestine Problem. New York: Palestine Liberation Organization circa 1970. Double-sided flyer measuring approximately 10 × 8 inches. Issued from 801 Second Avenue New York New York 10017. Beneath the bold all-capital heading twenty numbered or bullet-pointed statements begin with the repeated prompt "DO YOU KNOW" giving the document the form of a political questionnaire while directing readers toward predetermined conclusions. Early passages claim that Palestinian Arabs owned "97 1/2% of the land" during an earlier period and that Zionist ownership amounted to no more than six percent when the United Nations recommended partition in 1947. Other statements dispute the General Assembly's authority to recommend partition accuse Israel of repeated attacks across the 1949 Armistice Demarcation Lines and characterize the country as isolated from the developing Afro-Asian and Non-Aligned worlds. The final sections compare Israeli policies toward Arab citizens to apartheid citing military administration restricted residence unequal education and disparities in employment and pay. These assertions constitute the PLO's advocacy claims and should be read as polemical arguments rather than neutral statistical findings. The flyer belongs to a broader campaign in which Palestinian information offices adapted nationalist arguments for English-speaking audiences and sought alliances among antiwar Black freedom student anticolonial and international solidarity movements. The text's question-and-answer strategy was already influential by 1967 when the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee drew extensively upon Sayegh's earlier twenty-fact pamphlet in its own discussion of Palestine. A circa 1970 date places this issue before the PLO received United Nations observer status on November 22 1974 making it evidence of the public advocacy that preceded the organization's expanded diplomatic recognition. Minor creasing and edge wear without reported loss of text. Very good. A concise record of the PLO's New York publicity apparatus and its use of legal statistical and anticolonial rhetoric to advance a Palestinian account of the conflict. unknown
