| Summary/Abstract |
This article describes Israel's bacteriological warfare campaign during the first Arab-Israeli war of 1948. Over the decades following that war rumours circulated that Israel had used bacteria, alongside conventional weaponry, in its battle against Palestine's Arabs and the surrounding Arab states. The declassification of files in the Israeli military archives, our discovery of a crucial letter in private hands, and the publication of a handful of memoirs relating to 1948 have enabled us to bridge the divide between rumour and fact; to explain the campaign's origins; to reconstruct its stages, beginning in April 1948; to identify who was involved – including Israel's prime minister, David Ben-Gurion and the Israeli army's de facto chief of general staff, Yigael Yadin, as well as leading Israeli scientists – and who actively opposed it; and to delineate and assess what the campaign actually achieved or failed to achieve. In sum, this study helps to understand various aspects of the 1948 War.

| Summary/Abstract |
Back in 1906, when there were some 600,000 Arabs and 60,000 Jews in Palestine, Dr Chaim Weizmann—a leading British Zionist activist and, later, president of the World Zionist Organization and the first president of the State of Israel—visited the country for two weeks. He toured its towns and drove through or by its villages, and sent letters home, then and in the following weeks, to his wife in England and to others. He mentioned only Jewish settlements and Jews he had met—not one word about Arabs. It was as if Palestine had no Arabs.
