The justification of Anti-Semitism is a cardinal theme in Theodor Herzl’s book The Jewish State. Herzl poses the question asked by all anti-Zionists: “Will not Zionism provide weapons for the anti-Semites?” He answers: “How so? Because I admit the truth? Because I do not maintain that there are none but excellent men among us.”
Israel-born writer and musician, Gilad Atzmon, has posted a brilliant review of the two-hour Israeli documentary. (watch a video below).
It (documentary) is there to prove that Zionism is deeply anti- Semitic. The film is well made and very well researched, and the shocking quotes it outlines are all genuine.
Bravely, the film elaborates on the similarities between Herzl and Hitler. It is rather clear that – at least ideologically — the two political thinkers shared a deep aversion towards Jews.
Zionism was there to erect a ‘new Jew’: It promised to transform the Jews into “civilized people”. The documentary exposes the level of loathing early Zionists felt towards their Diaspora brothers.
“If I should be able to save all the (Jewish) children of Germany via transport to England, and merely half of them via transport to Israel, I will choose the latter,” David Ben Gurion is quoted saying.
The film goes on to review the Zionists’ total betrayal of, and failure to assist European Jews at the time of World War Two.
It also exposes the total political and legal abuse of Yemenite, Arab Jews and the Orthodox community in Israel.
It is important also to note that — as much as this film protests against anti Jewish discrimination in Israel — it hardly mentions the Palestinians or their plight. It totally neglects the crimes committed day by day against the Palestinian people.
As one expects – universal ethics hardly comes into play in Hebrew; not even in a film about Zionist discrimination and human rights abuse.
