TACT as Ia the last war, brave Mos
lem soldiers from Algeria, Tunis,
Morocco and Senegal are once more
getting ready to take their place In
tn French military scheme.
Only recently the Nazis again
claimed the Moslems were disaffect-

newspaper "Alef-ha" OF ancient
Damascus:
I'VE do not know to what Arab
peoples the Nazis refer. In no case
do the Arabs need defending. They
are above all against Germany
against Nazism, and against the
aggressor. Egypt, 1rak, Syria, Ara
bio, Bahrein, Persian, Gulf Eanzi-
bar, Koweit, Yemen are by the
word Of their Kings and Chiefs
m1nifesting their hostility towards
Germany. Where are the Arab coun-
tries that remain for the German
