Exercise to Test the War Rooms. Note by the Secretary Covering Narrative of the Imaginary Situation at the Time of the Exercise

1 Jun 1938

4. The Arab Conference in London has reached a deadlock and an imposed solution to the Palestine problem, although equitable in the eyes of H.M. Government, has failed to appease the Palestinian Arabs. Other Arab countries in the Middle East are restive but there are few signs of cohesive hostility to Great Britain. In the great Democratic countries, Great Britain, France and the U.S.A., opinion against the Totalitarian states has hardened and there has been a closing of the political ranks. Opinions in the British Dominions, excepting Eire, are unanimously against the Dictators.
