Issued by the committee for assisting the defense, Jerusalem, 1934.
Even before the murder, the tension between the parties was great. The murder set the fire and stirred the Yeshuv. The major defendant, Avraham Stavsky, was sentenced to death. Thus, the work of the defense was very difficult. The struggle for saving the defendants was headed by the Chief Rabbi, Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Ha'Cohen Kook and Rabbi Nathan Milikovsky, the grandfather of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. The greatest rabbis in Israel and abroad prayed for Stavsky, who was eventually acquitted.
The public opinion in Israel played a major role in this affair. Therefore, during the trial, many booklets and posters were published. The booklet before us was published by the defense.
170 pp.
Condition: Very Good.
