...black American and I want to express my anger about the militant Jewish Zionist camp in the Catskills. It is indeed hypocrisy that the so-called democratic leaders in our land and state permit such camps. Hitler called them youth camps; what does the J.D.L. call them? To say the Jews do not enjoy full equality would be a base lie, as they control the economy. Do these cubs intend to bomb Christian homes? Just what is the real purpose? If anti-Semitism becomes active, then the actions of the Jewish Zionists are the cause, and they must assume...

...early as 1919, when Jews were 8% of the population, a presidential commission visiting the region found that "the Zionists look forward to a practically complete dispossession of the present non-Jewish inhabitants of Palestine . . ." and also foresaw the likelihood of armed aggression in the accomplishment of the Zionist program.

...temporarily abandoned her for the cause: "I did not want to give you a small, cheap, secular kind of happiness. I prepared for you the great sacred human joy achieved through suffering and pain." From such moral heights as well as a rightful sense of wrongs endured, passionate Zionists could not take seriously the half-million Palestinian Arabs who were viewed merely as a harassment in Eden. Arab attacks, which began as early as 1886, were customarily described as "banditry." The Arabs were devoid of "an economic and cultural character of their own," pronounced Ber Borochov, the Marxist Zionist. Israel...

...limited suppression. Emigration to Israel has been steadily cut back. Last week, in the Leningrad municipal court where the earlier trials were held, nine more Jews loosely linked with the group that planned the same abortive hijacking were convicted, most of them on charges stemming from Zionist activities. Two of them-Gilya Butman, 38, an engineer, and Mikhail Korenblit, 33, a physician-were convicted of treason and sentenced to ten years and seven years, respectively, of a "strict regime" in a Soviet labor camp. (In the U.S., the minimum penalty for attempted hijacking is 20 years imprisonment...

That is the very heart of the problem. Israeli-born Journalist Amos Elon, in his just-published book, The Israelis: Founders and Sons, writes that repeated pogroms in Europe, climaxed by the Nazi holocaust, "imbued the Zionist settlers with the relentless drive of drowning men who force their way on to a life raft large enough to hold both them and those who were already on it." Yet the life raft did not prove quite roomy enough. "By a brutal twist of fate, unexpected, undesired, unconsidered by the early pioneers," adds Elon, the price of establishing a Jewish homeland...
