Views on Palestine:

The real attitude of official Washington towards the Palestine
issue now before the UN General Assembly is indicated in a special
report prepared for members of the U. S. delegation and- other
officials .• • . "The,* problem of Palestine," the report emphasizes,
"must be considered in the light of American and other interests in
the Near East" . . . It terms this problem "the largest thorn in the
flesh of Arab nationalism" . . . It also points out that "the Arab-
Jewish question. in Palestine cannot be considered in a vacuum"...
This question, the report says, is surrounded by many political forces
that must be taken into account in attempting any solution of the
problem ... It names these forces as imperialism, world politics and
nationalism ... It then draws special attention to the fact that in the
Near Eastern area, British, Russian, American and Arab-Moslem
interests meet . . Attention is called to the fact that during and
since the war, air bases in the Near East have become of increasing
importance to both Great Britain and the. United States . . . Also
that the Near _East is rich in natural resources—Egyptian cotton,
Palestine minerals from the Dead Sea, and petroleum . . . Also that
"this area may become in the future an important market" And
that, geographically, Palestine is the heart of the Near East, which
is strategically located _on other communications systems - besides
the Suez Canal route ... Dry land routes connecting Europe, Asia
and Africa traverse this area, the report points out . .

Soviet Interests:

Of particular interest is the analysis of Soviet interests in the
Near East presented in the Washington document on Palestine .. .
It says that one of the greatest sources of pressure in the Near East
is the Soviet Union . . ; It quotes unnamed sources • as having said
that Great Britain might pull out of Palestine if it were not for the
shadow of the USSR falling over the Near Eastern lands . . . Re-
ferring to the historic drive of Russia towards warm water ports,
the document enumerates facts indicating the resurgence of this
ancient Russian urge . . . It then emphasizes that "there has been a
decided change in the Soviet attitude towards Palestine" . . . And
it reviews how Zionism in R-ussia was "persecuted more than any
other group officially outlawed in the USSR, because it was con-
sidered counter-revolutionary ... How Zionism was looked upon by
Moscow as the ally and the spearhead of British imperialism . . .
How Jewish colonization was fostered in Biro-Bidjan as counter-
action against Zionism . . . And how this attitude changed after
Russia was attacked by the Nazis . . . The Washington document
attaches importance to the visit paid to Palestine in' October, 1943
by Ivan Maisky, Soviet Vice-Commisar for Foreign Affairs . . . Also
to the fact that in January, 1944, an exhibition showing the progress
of Jews in Palestine was allowed to be exhibited hi Moscow. .
Then in February, 1945, at a trade union conference in London, the
Soviet delegate voted for a resolution supporting Palestine as a
home land for the Jews . . . The report says that . Soviet wooing of
the Jews in Palestine can be seen from man, other recent develop-
ments ... It then brings out the thought that "there may be ground
for cooperation" on the Jewish side . . . Such bases for cooperation
are seen in the partly socialized character of the Jewish agricultural
economy in Palestine and in the fact that many of • the Jews in
Palestine are from Russia or other lands at present under Russian
influence ... The report also dwells at great length on Soviet efforts
