Archive of original and photocopied documents and letters, regarding Chaim Weizmann's Zionist activities. Binders with documents of Gilbert F. Clayton, who commanded the British Intelligence in Eretz Israel region, filled positions in the British Settlements Office and was involved in discussions concerning determination of the Middle East character .
This archive was compiled by Boris Guriel, a commander of Ran, a political intelligence branch of Shai (Information Service), to assist John Kimchi in writing his book.
This archive is unique in its reflection of the events of that period and it can shed new light on Weizmann’s direction of leadership – the synthetic Zionism. From the Eighth Zionist Congress in 1917 and following the Uganda Plan, Weizmann opposed Herzl’s policy, and together with Buber, he led a move to merge political Zionism and active Zionism stressing the settlement of Eretz Israel. This led to the establishment of the Zionist-Eretz Israel office that encouraged purchase of land and its settlement.
The archive includes a Master Copy of a book by John Kimchi “Vision is not Enough”, concerning Meir Weisgal’s contribution to enhance Chaim Weizmann’s leadership, as well as photo-copies of numerous documents regarding various topics: claims for a Jewish-National home in Palestine, letters to Herbert Samuel and Calyton; classified or confidential documents concerning the agreement between Weizmann and Emir Faisal, correspondence between Weizmann and British authorities, letters to the British foreign Ministry, to Balfour and to Robert Gilbert Vansittart from Chaim Weizmann and Israel Ziv, correspondence between Chaim Weizmann and Vera Weizmann, David Adar, Sokolov; Minutes of meetings of the Zionist Institutes in Britian. Summaries of interviews with Weizmann, some titled ‘Secret’. A letter to colonel Kisch with a copy of the British-French declaration concerning the region (1918), and additional items.
A Complete list of the archive contents will be sent upon request.
