some 200,000 officers and men. The strategy and tactics of an| armed conflict in Palestine would be conditioned by two basic factors, which must be clearly understood if grave errors of judgment are to be| avoided. These decisive facts, with | which I became personally ac-| quainted as a military commander in the Arab East in World War One, are: . ONE: An army facing Arab forces in Palestine would have to wage| war on three fronts, and have to| be prepared for an Arab blockade of the seacoast through secret mine fields. This would probably restrict the infux of volunteers from the Western world to such aerial reinforcements as could get through. TWO: Regular warfare would be accompanied by large-scale guerrilla activity behind the front ines. Its objective would be the disruption of communications, sabotage of | air fields, the harassing of hostile] commands and reserves, , Could Give Green Light

The states forming the "Arab League would probably not inter. vene officially in an armed Judeo-| Arab conflict. However, they would give their officers and men, and the) Bedouin horsemen inside their ver-| ritories, the green light for “inofi-| cial” participation in th fightng.

Also, it would be a mistake to {overlook the fact that in the Pal|estine fighting of 1936-38 the British officers of neighboring Trans{jordan’s modern army were power{less to prevent major units of their men from invading Palestine.
