"And to me give him alive, for alive me he tortured" - "Davar HaShavua" newspaper dealing with the capture of Adolf Eichmann - May 31, 1960 - a week after his capture by the Israeli Mossad and his extradition to Israel.

Impressive title page in red and black. On the left is a photo of the Nazi criminal Adolf Eichmann, and on the right is the famous photo of the mother and son who were shot by a soldier of the Einzatzgruppen near Ivangorod, Ukraine in 1942 - one of the most famous photos reflecting the terrible horrors of the Holocaust, and a photo of the Dachau crematorium. In large blood letters, a quote from "Simchat Aniim" by Alterman, referring to the capture of Eichmann: "And to me give him alive, for alive me he tortured".

The main article examines how Eichmann was captured - news of his whereabouts in Argentina, the way he tried to hide by using fake identity documents, his capture through the photograph in the hands of the Israeli security authorities, Ben-Gurion's dramatic announcement in the Knesset about his capture, and the preparations for Eichmann's trial.

19 p. 34 cm. reinforced with a stapler. Good condition.
