"The Nazis began recruiting Arabs to the Wehrmacht as early as the summer of 1941 when the starting point was the coup in Iraq, after the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem was exiled to Iraq from Beirut and tried to establish pro - Nazi rule with Iraq's former prime minister, Rashid al-Khilani," explains Dr. Petka.</blockquote></ref>

General [[Charles de Gaulle]] would, in 1968 confess to French journalist Jean-Jacques Servan-Schreiber, "I remember Palestine in 1941. Those Jewish youngsters were wonderful. They fought on our side, while the Arabs—we must admit—were on the other side."<ref name=degaulle1968>Cohen, S. (1974). ''De Gaulle, les gaullistes et Israël''. France: A. Moreau.

<blockquote><small>A Jean-Claude Servan-Schreiber venu s'entretenir avec lui en Juillet 1968, le général de Gaulle dit : « (...) je me rap-pelle la Palestine en 1941, et ces jeunes Juifs étaient merveilleux, ils se battaient à nos côtés alors que les Arabes — il faut bien le dire — étaient de l'autre bord. » — Source : Extrait inédit du compte rendu de l'entretien de Jean-Claude Servan-Schreiber avec le général de Gaulle, en date du 5 Juillet 1968.
[To Jean-Claude Servan-Schreiber who came to talk with him in July 1968, General de Gaulle said: "(...)

<blockquote><small>
De cette brève fraternité d’armes, de Gaulle conserve encore en 1968 le souvenir : « Et moi, je ne suis peut-être pas un ami d’Israël ! D’ailleurs je me rappelle la Palestine en 1941, et ces jeunes juifs étaient merveilleux, ils se battaient à nos côtés alors que les Arabes — il faut bien le dire — étaient de l’autre bord. »
De Gaulle still remembered this brief brotherhood in arms in 1968: "And I, perhaps, am not a friend of Israel! Besides, I remember Palestine in 1941, and those young Jews were marvelous, they fought alongside us while the Arabs - it must be said - were on the other side."]</small></blockquote>
