In the Rawdat el Maaref hall. His opposition to the British peaked during the 1936-39 Arab revolt in Palestine. In 1937, evading an arrest warrant, Amin al-Husseini fled Palestine and took refuge in, successively, the French Mandate of Lebanon and the Kingdom of Iraq, until he established himself in Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany. During World War II he collaborated with both Italy and Germany by making propagandistic radio broadcasts and by helping the Nazis recruit Bosnian Muslims for the Waffen-SS.
