This review is from: Jewish State or Israeli Nation? (Hardcover)
This book is a distillation of a Hebrew version but as a whole exhibits Zionism as it is as a rather pampered myth. It does not do so as an anti-Jewish or an anti-Israeli diatribe but as a backgrounder asking what holds up the whole notion of "nation of the Jews?" The answer is written to pry minds open with facts and reason and worth the seriousness it requires reading it carefully (maybe even taking notes). Herein are questions that, had they been dealt with after WWII, a lot less people would have needlessly died and Israel would have had a future as the Founding Fathers hoped: A LIGHT ONTO THE [ARAB]NATIONS," guiding them into modernization. But,starting with those who conceptualized Zionism, myths had to be held up by lies and now hate is giving way to a reverse alihah so that demographics may well end the notion of a Great Jewish leadership of the Semitic World. It's a tough book, but when you've read it you know that you'll, from time to time, re-read it to think through its many provocative notions. One thing is sure, Israel is a gathering of some of the world's best mind. The question is how many are mad and how many are shysters sealing the doom of the many luminaries that inhabit it?
