TLS in Hebrew, signed “D. Ben-Gurion,” one page, 6 x 7.75, State of Israel letterhead, March 31, 1956. Ben-Gurion writes to G. Schoken, editor of Haaretz in Tel-Aviv. In full: “There are only a few among us—the Communists [for example] who say: If they shoot at us—we will be silent; if they murder us—we should be silent; if there are terrorists [against us]—we should be silent, those who say this are either stupid or they are pretending to be stupid, it is not in keeping with the respectable press—that a talented journalist such as yourself should say something so foolish. Every nation under attack and especially us, is obligated to protect itself, self-defense is a holy responsibility, it is so inscribed in the Charter of the United Nations.” Marginal file holes, intersecting folds, light scattered toning, and mild handling wear, otherwise fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
