...land that is holy to the Christian, Jewish and Moslem world these latest, severest incidents of Palestine's long terror struck two novel notes. For the first time in recent history the Jews had definitely become the aggressors. In the casualties, they had come out ahead. For every Jew killed two Arabs met death.
