06:13:19 SOF Ben-Gurion reading from notes: “On the eve of the 3rd Anniversary of Israel’s Declaration of Independence I bring to the American people the warm greetings of the people of Israel, and our gratitude for the unfailing sympathy of America of our efforts for Independence & regeneration. The friendship between your great Republic, vast in area & population, rich in resources & experience, and the very young & infinitely smaller Democracy which I represent is rooted deep in the common spiritual heritage. Our war of Independence, fought after 6 millions of our people have been exterminated by the Nazis, proves once again that the cause of justice painfully pursued must triumph in the end. In our revival we have been inspired by the message of our bible and by the traditions of our ancient history which elevates the dignity of man & the principal of justice which commands us to love our neighbor. Edit (?).
06:14:38 “We humbly believe that by constructive work & the Liberty & Peace we shall vindicate the trust we reposed in our future.”
