He describes the great excitement with which they used to listen to German and Italian broadcasts, how he would follow during the night the military communiqués, marking on a map the places being occupied by the victorious Germans and meet his friends the following morning to discuss triumphs exceeding those of the previous day: '''Our sympathies were with the Axis powers being led by Hitler from victory to victory, and with our sympathies went our prayers for the victory of Germany'' and her allies, and defeat for Britain...</small></blockquote></ref><ref>[https://www.news1.co.il/Archive/002-D-100749-00.html The Truth About the War of Independence: Poor Preparations - Chapter 19...] ''News 1'', March 13, 2015. <br><small<'Chapter Nineteen of Dr. Uri Milstein's research / book on the poor preparations for the War of Independence.

| | + | During World War II, most of the leaders in Palestinian society supported Nazi Germany. The ideological and strategic conflict in the world had no meaning in their eyes. Their sympathy for the "Axis" countries expressed their desire to get rid of the British, the French and the Zionists, or at least to see the fall of the British. Ahmad Shukieri testified: "Our sympathy was with the Axis Powers. Hitler led from victory to victory. We prayed for the victory of Germany and its allies and the defeat of Britain and its allies. When the British government announced the establishment of an Eretz Israel military force for the war effort, our young men were instructed: 'Do not join this force' and almost everyone obeyed it. The German and Italian air forces arrived in Palestine. And in September 1940 their planes bombed targets in Tel Aviv and Haifa. The joy and excitement in our circles was indescribable. So happened that an Italian bomb fell in Acre in the neighborhood where my house was, it dug a large pit but did not cause any damage. The assistant governor in Acre visited me and said that the governor jokingly told him that this bomb was intended for Ahmad Shukeiri. I said: "Excellent. Upon me and all my enemies!"''</small></ref><ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=6UguAQAAIAAJ&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=%22%D7%A9%D7%95%D7%A7%D7%99%D7%99%D7%A8%D7%99%22], Vol. 28, Mifleget po'ale Erets-Yiśra'el, 1972, pp.225-6</ref> and he himself allied with / propagated for Hitler against the Jews,<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=3Yah_o9r5V4C&pg=SL1-PA456&dq=#v=snippet&q=%22Shukairy%22%20%22worked%20for%20the%20Nazis%22&f=false Congressional Record: Proceedings and Debates of the ...
