The Ashkenazi Revolution

2471. We let slip away the opportunity to establish a great Ashkenazicivilization in Africa, or in another new continent, and to bring theremillions of Ashkenazim from the dangerous areas of Europe. Even thosewho claim that Uganda, and Africa in general, could never be considered asa refuge for the Ashkenazi masses, cannot deny that there were similarpossibilities on other continents. The Jewish People always accepted anyproposal of constructive cooperation that was offered it by other peoples.The Uganda Proposition was the most constructive that was ever offered usin the modern era, but we rejected it. It can be said that this rejected wasthe only instance in history where Jews caused direct damage to worldpeace, weakened the power of the builders, strengthened anti-Semitism andencouraged a tragedy in which they themselves were the most unfortunatevictims.2. The second failure befell us in connection with the Land of Israel,where we acquired only a small portion of what we were capable ofacquiring. The Hebrew settlement in the Land of Israel filled only aminimal role in the battle against Nazism, before and after its rise to power.In the decisive period between the two world wars, only 300-400 thousandAshkenazim migrated to the Land of Israel.

Forces are gaining power, and conspiring to disinherit us fromthe nation, and they wait for the moment when the last Ashkenazi willleave. This third blow, which is taking form on the horizon and becomingmore and more troublesome, is a result of the first two failures. After theterrible defeats of the first two battles for the rescue of the Ashkenazi campin Europe, we are about to lose the final battle, which is forming in theState of Israel - unless we abandon the old ways and take a new path.The two defeats, which we inherited in the years 1882-1948, and the thirddefeat that threatens us, have their root in one basic mistake. We have
