The paper was established in 1931 by Yehoshua Lichter. It closed in 1934, and was succeeded byHaYardenandHaMashkif.
The newspaper is noted for its tolerant or even supportive attitude towards some aspects ofNaziideology. WhenAdolf Hitlerrose to power in 1933, it stated that "If some segments of our people draw the appropriate conclusions from the Hitlerism [sic], then we will be able to say that something good came out of a bad situation. "The newspaper also approved of Hitler'santi-communism,stating that "the anti-Semitic husk should be discarded, but not its anti-Marxist inside." The praise of Nazism reportedly stopped after leading Revisionist thinkerZe'ev Jabotinskycalled for "a total end to this abomination.".[2]The paper folded in 1934.
