British Working To Kill Israel, Rotarians Told
Louis Chanen, Independence businessman and Rotary member, told Oelwein Rotarians that Britain arms Arabs and enforces an arms embargo, leaving Jews powerless to defend Israel. He described displaced Jews in Europe and urged support for returning to the land of Israel despite Arab financing by Britain. The talk cited a UN study and noted British abandonment of a prior promise to return the nation to the Jews.
