“On May 17,1939, Britain bolstered its position among the Arabs when it issued the White Paper, which promised to stop Jewish immigration in five years, limit the purchase of land by Jews, and form a Palestinian state within ten years.”
Jeffrey Herf, Nazi Propaganda for the Arab World

“Allied propaganda should try to convince the Arabs that the Germans had a broad, not narrow, understanding of the meaning of “anti-Semitism,” that is, that it was a form of racism directed against Arabs, Persians, and Muslims as well as against the Jews.”
Jeffrey Herf, Nazi Propaganda for the Arab World
