JTA & Time Magazine reporters.. BOTH saw the SS Tel Aviv hoisting Palestine's flag...in Lisbon on Feb 15 1935 & in Greece in early March of 1935. If you read the both reports online both articles stated that the SS Tel Aviva was a Palestine-register ship. On the other hand ..the same ship switched its flag to the Swastika in between in Genoa on Feb 28th (which you can find a picture of on Getty Images) and later in late March in Tel Aviv. The question is: why a Palestine-registered ship hoist the Swastika?
