  • Response of the Jewish Daily Press in Palestine to the Accession of Hitler, 1933 Benny Morris

    Response of the Jewish Daily Press in Palestine to the Accession of Hitler, 1933 Benny Morris

    Response of the Jewish Daily Press in Palestine to the Accession of Hitler, 1933 Benny Morris Eretz Israel is being built from the rubble of the Diaspora. The losses inflicted on world Jewry have greatly abetted the rapid growth of the National Home at this time . and Eretz Israel will absorb the few who escaped the process of destruction and devastation.1 This article surveys the attitudes of the Palestinian Jewish press toward Hitler’s accession to power and the Nazi upheaval in Germany in 1933. The study hopes to shed light on the nature of this press, the consolidation of the Yishuv’s attitude toward the Nazis, and the patterns of thinking and action adopted by the Zionist movement in the 1930s. The press at a specific time, with respect to a certain subject, is of dual value to the historian. First, it reflects how certain topics and events were viewed and construed during the period studied, and each individual newspaper reflects the specific perspective of a given political party or social circle toward the processes and events. Second, the press influences public opinion and helps shape certain groups’ perceptions and understandings of the events they witness. Sometimes, too, the press provides facts about events and communicates the views of the personalities about events by means of interviews and features. This article focuses on several themes: the response of the Palestinian Jewish press to the elections in Germany in July and November 1932; its responses to Hitler’s accession to power on January 30, 1933; and the effect of Yishuv politics on these responses.
