Beschreibung:

42 publications and proclamations printed by the Zionist paramilitary organizations during the Israeli War of Independence, including publications concerning the Bernadotte assassination, the temporary government's ultimatum and the decision to dismantle the groups. Israel, 1948. Hebrew. 24 printed items issued by Irgun and Herut, including: * Twelve proclamations: Proclamation announcing the organization's dismantling following the ultimatum issued by the temporary government. The proclamation is addressed to Irgun militiamen in Jerusalem, announcing the organization's acceptance of the temporary government's ultimatum out of fear of "civil war"; proclamation published following shots fired by Mapai members at Irgun members, on the direct orders of Moshe Dayan (then commander of the Jerusalem Brigade); two harsh proclamations of the Irgun headquarters in Jerusalem, condemning the decision to dismantle the organization; and more. * Two issues of "Herut": "Herut (Szabada)", issue no. 1 of the newspaper in Hungarian, October 1948; "Herut (Liberte)", issue in French [apparently published in 1948]. * Three transcriptions of Irgun broadcasts on "Kol Zion HaLohemet". * "The Hebrew War of Independence (Conceptual Foundations)", booklet containing a "general plan" for an uprising, the conduct of a war and the establishment of a Jewish state along Revisionist ideological lines. [Ca. 1946]. * Additional items. 13 printed items issued by Lehi, including: * Seven proclamations: proclamation from Elul 1948, declaring the founding of "Hazit HaMoledet" [The Homeland Front] organization, and listing the reasons for assassinating U.N. ambassador Folke Bernadotte. Apparently published by Lehi to deflect suspicion of their involvement; notice by Lehi regarding the "trial" and "punishment" of four citizens following damage caused to the organization and misuse of its name; harsh proclamation following the outlawing of the organization, calling for its legitimacy to be reinstated; and more. * "Cornerstones of the Doctrine of Hebrew Liberty" [Hebrew], second edition from the war years, Adar Bet 1948 (this edition of the booklet is not in NLI). * Four transcriptions of Lehi broadcasts on "Herut Yerushalayim". * Issue 7 of the pamphlet "Hazit HaNoar" from Av 1948. Additional items. Total of 42 items. Size and condition vary. Good-fair overall condition. Stains, creases, small tears and folding marks to some of the items. A few items appear in two copies.
