U. S. GETS REPORT ON ANTI-SEMITISM Arab Propaganda Is Injuring Unity of Nation, Agency Tells State Department By IRVING SPIEGEL Special to The New York Times WASHINGTON, March 11— The Anti-Defamation League forwarded to the State Department today its report dealing with Arab propaganda activity in the United States. The league is the civil rights agency of the 113-year-old B'nai B'rith Jewish service organization. It told the State Department that Arab propaganda was intended "to stimulate anti-Jewish feeling" and was "doing great injury to American unity." A letter to John Foster Dulles, Secretary of State, accompanied the report. In the letter, Henry Edward Schultz, national chairman, asked that the report be given "study and consideration...in the hope that it will be helpful in our Government's efforts to check such divisive foreign propaganda attacks upon Americans of Jewish faith by representatives of foreign Governments." Yesterday, the league made public a four-year study of the extent of political anti-Semitism. The report accused Arab diplomats of engaging in "an organized and well-financed conspiracy to stimulate anti-Semitic feelings in this country—their purpose to thwart American sympathy and aid for Israel." The letter to Mr. Dulles and the adoption of a series of resolutions dealing with domestic and foreign issues was voted at the close of the annual meeting of the league's national executive committee. Mr. Schultz' letter asserted that Arab propaganda was motivated by "enmity for Israel, for these Arab propagandists believe that if they can undermine the position of Americans of the Jewish faith, they will eventually be able to destroy Israel, the only genuinely democratic country in the Middle East." The agency predicted that the election campaigns this year would witness "a renewal of the efforts of bigots to inject race hatred and religious hatred into the campaigns." While pointing out that these efforts had been repudiated previously by American political leaders, the resolution asserted that "there must be continual alertness to insure that such efforts will prove equally fruitless in the forthcoming election." The resolution called on political leaders and candidates to "repudiate publicly the efforts of hate-mongers to inject bigotry into the campaign, and the support of any individual or group which invokes racial or religious prejudice as a campaign technique." Immigration Action Urged Following a report by Judge David A. Rose of Boston, chairman of the agency's civil rights committee, that the "Refugee Relief Act is not fully utilized," the league urged Congressional action to revise "our restrictive and unfair immigration laws." The resolution endorsed President Eisenhower's recent recommendations that the "inequitable national origins quota systems be re-examined and more liberal standards be adopted." Mr. Schultz told the final session that the Poujadist movement in France threatened to' revive a "real Hitler atmosphere" in Europe. He said that the "anti-Jewish character" of the political movement founded by Pierre Poujade was "obvious and inflammatory" despite the disclaimers. "Persons who know the psychological basis of public opinion in France," Mr. Schultz added, "recognize that behind the program of the Poujadists is the aim to eliminate Jewish competition in France's middle-class economy."

According to the ADL and other Tribal groups, the only conspiracies that exist are the ones against Jews.
"Don't re-elect anyone, not even your mama."
The bigger the lie repeated often enough...
And how does Zionist propaganda injure the unity of the nation?
"To be nobody-but-yourself - in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can ever fight; and never stop fighting." E.E. Cummings
Why should they care about any other conspiracies? Should Walt and Mearsheimer have tediously rehashed "complexities" well-examined elsewhere?
ha! isn't that rich....
In 1956, Eisenhower was still able to defy Israel (as well as Britain and France) over Suez. The ADL and AIPAC hadn't gotten so much power yet at that point.
The report accused Arab diplomats of engaging in "an organized and well-financed conspiracy to stimulate anti-Semitic feelings in this country—their purpose to thwart American sympathy and aid for Israel."

The ruling trait of all savages is a greedy and consuming selfishness, and in our Noble Red Man it is found in its amplest development. His heart is a cesspool of falsehood, of treachery, and of low and devilish instincts. With him, gratitude is an unknown emotion; and when one does him a kindness, it is safest to keep the face toward him, lest the reward be an arrow in the back. To accept of a favor from him is to assume a debt which you can never repay to his satisfaction, though you bankrupt yourself trying. To give him a dinner when he is starving, is to precipitate the whole hungry tribe upon your hospitality... The scum of the earth! -- Mark Twain
