Antisemitic cartoons in Falastin newspaper (Jaffa), Summer 1936

During the summer of 1936, a couple of months into the Arab revolt, the Jaffa-based Falastin newspaper started publishing on its front cover editorial cartoons that were shown in English as well as Arabic.

Some were blatantly antisemitic.

Here are a few:

The Zionist crocodile to Palestine Arabs: "Don't be afraid!! I vill swallow you peacefully..."

Note the accented "vill."

Years before "Maus," this cartoon showed Jews as mice and Arabs as cats, with the text, "Cats & Mice, living in peace and harmony...did you ever see such a thing in your life???"
