I
22:32Ian LustickGUEST
Even the world's, uh, uh, agencies, the World Zionist Organization, reject, uh, used what is now, uh, the, the Jerusalem, uh, declaration, uh, uh, declar- uh, definition, which is just as antisemitism is prejudice, hostility, or discrimination against Jews as Jews.

That was the traditional definition.

As these pages progress, and the history of the 38th Jewish Battalion is unfolded before the eyes of the reader, it will be seen that my expectations were more than realized, for the battalion drilled, marched, fought, and generally played the game as well as any battalion in the army.
M
30:30Marianne SpiegelNARRATOR
It is a curious fact that, so far as I could gather, the Inner Actions Committee of the Zionist Organization, with the honored exception of Dr. Weizmann, looked upon us with suspicion.
M
30:41Marianne SpiegelNARRATOR
The formation of Jewish battalions did not appeal to them.
M
30:45Marianne SpiegelNARRATOR
How it was possible that the leaders of Zionism should not have grasped and taken to their hearts this gift of Jewish battalions from the British government for the furtherance of their own ends is one of the greatest examples of ineptitude that have ever come within my experience.

For three years, each rabbi, each teacher goes three years away.
A
14:09Aaron Rakeffet-RothkoffHOST
you're not at the mercy of the congregation, you're sent by the Jewish agency, the World Zionist Organization, they pay your salary, and you can be a Rav.
A

P
11:11Pete QuiñonesHOST

P
11:25Pete QuiñonesHOST
In 1897, this movement, led by a European, quote-unquote, European journalist named Theodor Herzl, coalesced in the first Zionist Congress held in Basel, Switzerland, which established a world Zionist organization representing 117 groups the first year, 900 the next.

Origins of Israel's Lobby
I
50:06Ian LustickGUEST
And yet now we see the Department of Education under pressure from the lobby saying it is reviewing its curriculum and with an eye to removing this disturbing mark of anti-Semitism.
I
50:19Ian LustickGUEST
What's really amazing is that that definition of antisemitism was used by the World Zionist Organization itself in the 1990s, as we see.
I
50:28Ian LustickGUEST
And only recently, as the whole lobby in Israel, Hasbara propaganda has shifted to trying to use antisemitism as a smear, has that old and correct definition been abandoned.
I
50:41Ian LustickGUEST
The simple definition of antisemitism is bigotry towards Jews as Jews.

Perhaps the most shocking example of this type is the delight with which some Zionist leaders in Germany welcomed Hitler's rise to power because they shared his belief in the primacy of race and his hostility to the assimilation of Jews among Aryans.
P
255:54Pete QuiñonesHOST
They congratulated Hitler on his triumph over the common enemy, the forces of liberalism.
P
255:58Pete QuiñonesHOST
Dr. Joachim Prinz, a Zionist rabbi who subsequently emigrated to the USA, where he rose to be vice chairman of the World Jewish Congress and a leading light in the World Zionist Organization, as well as a great friend of Golda Meir, published in 1934 a special book, Wir Juden, We Jews, to celebrate Hitler's so-called German Revolution and the defeat of liberalism.
P
256:20Pete QuiñonesHOST
Quoting from that book, The meaning of the German Revolution for the German nation will eventually be clear to those who have created it and formed its image.
