Monseignor Jajjar, the [Christian Arab] Archbishop of Galilee, testimony to the Royal (Peel) Commission: “When the Jews become the majority in the country they will dominate, and when they reach that standing, they will be acting contrary to the Koran which says: ‘they have been stricken with misery until the day of resurrection.’…Judaism looks at this country as the land of promise. According to Christianity, we are the new Israel, we are the new people of god.” Source: Statement of Policy by His Majesty’s Government on Palestine, London: Secessional Papers presented to Parliament by Royal Command, Command Papers, 1936-37, minutes, Jan. 18, 1937 (p. 226.)
