A letter to US Zionists by Albert Einstein dated 10 April 1948
Dear Sir,
Then a real and final catastrophe should befall us in Palestine the first responsible for it would be the British and the second responsible for it the Terrorist organisations build up from our own ranks.
I am not willing to see anybody associated with those misled and criminal people.
Sincerely yours,
