Zionism Dying?

A scathing denunciation of the Government's policy in Palestine was given by the editor of the London Daily Express. Commenting upon the fact that trying to find a Jew in Jerusalem is like trying to find a needle in a haystack, he said: "They are drops in the Arab ocean." Referring to the Government of Palestine, he remarked: "They are a cryptic hierarchy of esoteric oligarchs guarded by British bayonets, British aeroplanes and British armored cars."

A correspondent of the same paper, at present on a visit to Palestine, condemns the Zionist movement as "an act of British folly." Describing a visit to Jerusalem, he says: "The sad little Zionist settlements are bankrupt; they live on foreign alms. They were built upon a fantastically uneconomic foundation. The opulent dreamers of an exiled Jewry have grown weary of pouring their donations into an insatiable soil of a thirsty land. Without the largesse of rich American and European Jews, Zionism cannot live an hour longer! "
