BOOK ONE — INTRODUCTION<br />
<strong>the</strong>y have been driven, and more than strangers because <strong>the</strong>y had no land <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
own in which <strong>the</strong>y and o<strong>the</strong>rs could feel that <strong>the</strong>y were completely at home. 121/<br />
(This has all <strong>the</strong> tone, color and shape <strong>of</strong> Expulsion in Genesis).<br />
Pinsker’s plan would make use <strong>of</strong> “alliances”: <strong>the</strong> Alliance Israélite Universelle, <strong>the</strong><br />
Vienna Allianz, and <strong>the</strong> Anglo-Jewish Association <strong>of</strong> London. 122/ Ano<strong>the</strong>r Jew, Israel Zangwill,<br />
writing in synonymous terms and citing from <strong>the</strong> Talmud 123/ , said what recent American White,<br />
Anglo-Saxon Protestant protestors have been saying for a long time:<br />
“He that owns no land is no man.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> “Hibbat <strong>Zion</strong>” movement, 124/ already in existence, held a very generalized version <strong>of</strong><br />
a “Jewish State” idea which had been loosely forming until Herzl appeared. Young Jews wanted<br />
a homeland, not in Europe where <strong>the</strong>y believed <strong>the</strong>y could not remain, but in Palestine, which<br />
was held at <strong>the</strong> time by <strong>the</strong> Ottoman Empire.<br />
121 THE ROOT OF THE EVIL . Got<strong>the</strong>il, at pp. 63-64. If <strong>the</strong> Jew has no homeland, and if he has<br />
no sense <strong>of</strong> “property” as such, it is little to be doubted that <strong>the</strong> Jew would have little regard for<br />
<strong>the</strong> “property” held by o<strong>the</strong>rs, and at <strong>the</strong> same time look upon it in a schizophrenic personality<br />
that wants what it had from <strong>the</strong> beginning but has not now. While <strong>the</strong> Jewish State <strong>of</strong> “Israel”<br />
exists today, most all Jews are not part <strong>of</strong> it: this lies primarily at <strong>the</strong> door <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Jews<br />
<strong>the</strong>mselves. See also, Note regarding <strong>The</strong> Landless Man, and, INTRODUCTION, Part 14,<br />

124 THE “HIBBAT ZION” MOVEMENT. Or, Hibbat Ziyyon, “Love <strong>of</strong> <strong>Zion</strong>.” A movement<br />
organized by Russian Jews as intellectuals and university students, shortly after <strong>the</strong> 1880’s<br />
pogroms (anti-Jewish rioting) to purchase Palestine from <strong>the</strong> Sultan. Got<strong>the</strong>il, <strong>Zion</strong>ism, Chp. III.,<br />
“Leo Pinsker and Autoemancipation,” p. 67.<br />
<strong>The</strong> “<strong>Zion</strong>ist” movement, a different group, started in <strong>the</strong> 1850’s, and joined <strong>the</strong> younger<br />
“Hibbat <strong>Zion</strong>.” (Potok, id.). Ano<strong>the</strong>r Jewish “homeland” group, Chovevi <strong>Zion</strong> (or, Hobebe<br />
Ziyyon) was “a movement which sought to give tangible expression to <strong>the</strong> newly awakened<br />
interest in Palestine...regarded as spadeworkers in a cause greater than <strong>the</strong>y <strong>the</strong>mselves<br />
imagined.” (Got<strong>the</strong>il, id., pp. 72-73). <strong>Zion</strong>ism started to occupy <strong>the</strong> position Chovevi <strong>Zion</strong><br />
societies should have taken, <strong>the</strong>re was a noticeable discord between <strong>the</strong> two parties. Got<strong>the</strong>il, p.<br />
73.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> Mizarchi Fraction...were known to be in a large majority [and to] have run a strong<br />
religious thread through <strong>the</strong> fabric <strong>of</strong> <strong>Zion</strong>ism, and it is not at all times been easy to meet <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
exigencies in <strong>the</strong> solution <strong>of</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r than purely religious questions...Again, <strong>the</strong>re were also<br />
extreme Palestinians [i.e., Jews favoring a Jewish State <strong>of</strong> “Palestine”], <strong>the</strong> so-called Ziyyon<br />
<strong>Zion</strong>ists. <strong>The</strong>se were impatient <strong>of</strong> delay in fur<strong>the</strong>ring what was called `practical work’ in<br />
Palestine, and some went even so far as to demand <strong>the</strong> transference <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> whole movement, bag<br />
and baggage, to <strong>the</strong> Promised Land.” Got<strong>the</strong>il, pp. 135, 152 and 226 n. 4, citing “Protokoll des<br />
Neunten <strong>Zion</strong>ist-Kongresses,” at p. 239.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Jews are not “as one,” nor as perfectly organized and entirely co-operative<br />
with each o<strong>the</strong>r, as non-Jews think <strong>the</strong> Jews are. A hidden tool, which we fail to use. (Ed.).<br />
