not carry out assassinations, and that he was fighting for Palestine and
not for the Husseinis.”
The messenger threatened ’Abd al-Rahim that his supplies and
financial aid would be cut off should he fail to carry out the
assassinations. According to his personal assistant Shakir Milhim and his
son, the supplies were indeed cut off from Damascus for a while, and he
had to ask the Chamber of Commerce of Jerusalem and the municipality
of Ramallah for financial aid. “
’Arif ’Abd al-Raziq did not have the same attitude as ’Abd al-
Rahim towards political assassinations. He was accused by the al-Dajani
family of Jerusalem of being responsible for the assassination of Hasan
al-Dajani, a2 prominent political figure who was killed in ’Arif’s territory
of Command. Faisal, ’Arif’s son, denies his fathers responsibility for
killing Hasan al-Dajani, and says that the murder was carried out by one
of his father’s bodyguards without his knowledge. “' However, the fact
that Hasan al-Dajani was killed in Arif territory immediately after he
visited him, and the fact that during Hasan’s visit to ’Arif, the latter was
visited by two of the Husseini faction, indicate that if ’Arif did not order
the assassination to be carried out, at least he knew of it, especially since
one of the two visitors from the Husseini faction was Dawood al-
Husseini, the same person who brought the list of names for
assassination to Abd al-Rahim Haj Mohammad.”
