[faux] Propos attribués à Chaim Weizmann “Obstacles that had to be cleared on a difficult path” — 19 août 1918

Apocryphe ou citation fausse ou douteuse.

Auteur :
"

[the native population was akin to] the rocks of Judea, as obstacles that had to be cleared on a difficult path.


"

The quote, taken from a letter from Weizmann to his wife Vera, was given by Simha Flapan, in his book Zionism and the Palestinians. The exact quote would be "We have to deal with that [the Jews], as well as with the climate of Palestine, the stones of the Judean Hills, the Arabs and other difficult obstacles on our difficult path.
