I am certain that if you were in Palestine and we were in the United States, you would be doing what we are doing there, and you would ask us here to do what you will have to do. I am not exaggerating when I say that the Yishuv in Palestine will fight in the Negev and will fight in Galilee and will fight on the outskirts of Jerusalem until the very end. You cannot decide whether we should fight or not. The Jewish community in Palestine will raise no white flag for the Mufti. That decision is taken.
Nobody can change it.
That decision American Jews can make. It has to be made quickly within hours, within days. Don't be bitterly sorry three months from now for what you failed to do today. The time is now. I have spoken to you without a grain of exaggeration.
