Ah yes, ild Hegel.. telling us a confuzed concept in the most confuzed manner... and he is considered great for this...

The book finally arrived, and it is massive.
My wife asked me: Why do you need to know about this anyway. Seeing how many pages I have to read I also ask this myself.
Finished reading the 2004 preface; and this is the only author who understands that marxism was empty words in the easter bloc in its final decades for both elite and normal people. An observation that only people who lived in the eastern bloc can make

Zionism during world war 2 feels strange. I was left with more questions than answers. I get that the scope of this book is limited... but even so...

So the narative reaches WW2. And at this point I am dissapointed in the author on constantly referencing the incoming tragedy. Zionists in those years did not know what was to come !? Right !?

The amount of meetings, organizations and commities the jews have... Is it to confuse their enemies or do they really do thrive in never ending politics

Zionist in fighting is very interesting and mental.
Interesting how the reformed zionists split from the socialist dominated zionism, went more and more fascist, religious and conservative. Explains a lot of current Israel

Just amazed at how radical socialist/marxist the founders of Israel were. Funny is also how illegal imigration was done with boats, not so diffrent from today in europe.
But somehow, despite their radicalism, they did build up a powerfull nation with modern infrastructure.

Just fascinating to read how communist and radical were parts of the first settlers. Debating whatever their first child born should be raised by all the woman or only by his mother.
No wonder the arabs felt very uneasy with them.

Interesting how secular, socialist and non religious were first generation zionists

The irrony of arabs not being able to control jewish immigration... in relation to our times and islamic immigration in europe.

It is funny that Arab representatives complained in 1908 to the Turkish authorities that they permit unrestricted Jewish immigration, that the jews establish their own separate courts their own separate militias and they sing and display separate national songs and flags. This is so much similar to the current replacement in west Europe.

Never been so hyped up for some Balfour

Herzel was one ambitious dude
