Diary Reveals Zionist Leader Jabotinsky's Plan to Murder Hitler
(Ynet News) Shlomo Nakdimon - In December 1939, four months after the beginning of World War II, Zionist leader Ze'ev Jabotinsky paid a visit to retired British colonel Richard Henry Meinertzhagen, who served as an advisor at the War Office in London and knew Jabotinsky from his service in the British army in World War I. The colonel documented his conversation with the Zionist leader in his private diary: Jabotinsky: I have brought a plan to bomb Hitler and the entire Nazi leadership. Meinertzhagen: An ambitious plot. Jabotinsky: An attainable one. Meinertzhagen: Do elaborate. Jabotinsky: A number of high-ranking Nazis in Munich must be assassinated. Their funeral will require the arrival of their senior comrades, including Hitler. Bombs containing 100 kilograms of explosives will be concealed in one of the coffins. As all the Nazis gather around the grave, 100 kilograms of bombs will explode and they'll all move on to the next world. Meinertzhagen: Who will activate the bomb system? Jabotinsky: The Jewish gravedigger in Munich. He's a friend of mine. The colonel, who was impressed by the plan, presented it to the Foreign Office in London. The response was recorded in one short line in his diary: The Foreign Office frowned and the Nazis were saved.
