All right, satiric paper, dedicated to Palestine Government officials and the Palestinian Arab independence following the riots of August 1929, edited by A.B. Reuveni. Printed by A. Eitan and S. Shoshani, Tel-Aviv, 1929.
A satiric paper issued following the riots in August 1929. The paper attacks the British that are backing the Arabs and accuse the Jews for causing the riots. On the title page of the paper appears a caricature showing a pile of bodies with knives stuck in them and the title "The Mandate Comes True". The paper includes articles discussing bitterly the attitude of the British towards the riots, i.e., the explicit tendency in favor of the Arabs and the warning that they will "treat seriously all those who disturb peace with no discrimination".
16 columns, 32 cm. Fair condition. Significant foxing, stains, tears and open tears.
