  • Diaspora Influence on Israeli Policy*

    Diaspora Influence on Israeli Policy*

    I' I~' ~~ . r·'· Diaspora Influence on Israeli Policy* Charles S. Liebman Influence may be defined as the exercise of power through di­ rect or indirect threats of sanctions or promises of rewards by one party over another party, causing the second party to respond in a manner in which it would not otherwise have responded. Diaspora Jewry exercises very little influence over Israeli pub~ lic policy, but it is untrue to suggest that it exercises no influence. In religious policy, foreign policy, policy toward the World Zionist Or­ ganization (WZO), even economic policy, there are examples of Diaspora influence. Yet, it is fair to say that in adding up the factors that comprise the total of Israeli policies, Diaspora influence is slight. On the surface, this is a surprising conclusion because the po­ tential political resources which the Diaspora can bring to bear upon Israel are enormous. It is true that there is no individual political community which can be called the Diaspora, nor do Diaspora Jews perceive a distinctive Diaspora interest. It is also true that not all such communities, whether they are considered national communi­ ties or subcommunities (organizations or sets of organizations) with­ in the national community, have enormous political resources. But there are at least a few communities which do possess these re­ sources: their sheer size, financial contributions to Israel, and the relative influence which they 'exercise within their own countries (the latter being the most important factor)! provide them with enor­ mous potential influence. First and foremost in this respect is the Jewish community in the United States.

Many of the sources posed problems concerning numerical data on immi­ gration, especially for the months leading up to the end of the British Mandate, January-April 1948, and the first few months of the state, May­ August 1948. The researchers point out that 7,574 immigrant data cards are missing from the records and believe this to be due to the 'circumstances of the times'. Records are complete from September 1948 onward, and an important population census was held in November 1948. A parallel record­ ing system conducted by the Jewish Agency, which continued to operate after that of the Mandatory Government, provided us with statistical data for immigration during 1948-9 and made it possible to analyse the part taken by the Holocaust survivors.

    JABOTINSKY on CANADA and the Unlted STATES*

    A CASE OFLIMITED VISION: JABOTINSKY ON CANADA AND THE UNlTED STATES* From its inception in 1897, and even earlier in its period of gestation, Zionism has been extremely popular in Canada. Adherence to the movement seemed all but universal among Canada's Jews by the World War I era. Even in the interwar period, as the flush of first achievement wore off and as the Canadian Jewish community became more acclimated, the movement in Canada functioned at a near-fever pitch. During the twenties and thirties funds were raised, acculturatedJews adhered toZionism with some settling in Palestine, and prominent gentile politicians publicly supported the movement. The contrast with the United States was striking. There, Zionism got a very slow start. At the outbreak of World War I only one American Jew in three hundred belonged to the Zionist movement; and, unlike Canada, a very strong undercurrent of anti-Zionism emerged in the Jewish community and among gentiles. The conversion to Zionism of Louis D. Brandeis-prominent lawyer and the first Jew to sit on the United States Supreme Court-the proclamation of the Balfour Declaration, and the conquest of Palestine by the British gave Zionism in the United States a significant boost during the war. Afterwards, however, American Zionism, like the country itself, returned to "normalcy." Membership in the movement plummeted; fundraising languished; potential settlers for Palestine were not to be found. One of the chief impediments to Zionism in America had to do with the nature of the relationship of American Jews to their country. Zionism was predicated on the proposition that Jews were doomed to .( 2 Michuel Brown be aliens in every country but their own.

Genesis 12:1 - 7 1 The Lord said to Abram, Go forth from your native land and from your father's house to the land that I will show you. 2 I will make of you a great nation, And I will bless you; I will make your name great, And you shall be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you And curse him that curses you; And all the families of the earth Shall bless themselves by you." 4 Abram went forth as the Lord had commanded him, and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he left Haran. 5 Abram took his wife Sarai and his brother's son Lot, and all the wealth that they had amassed, and the persons that they had acquired in Haran; and they set out for the land of Canaan. When they arrived in the land of Canaan, 6 Abram passed through the land as far as the site of Shechem, at the terebinth of Moreh. The Canaanites were then in the land. 7 The Lord appeared to Abram and said, "I will assign this land to your heirs." And he built an altar there to the Lord who had appeared to him.

It might possibly be of help to you if you communicated with the Victorian Zionist League (Rev S.M. Solomon Hon Secretary Synagogue Bourke Street Melbourne) and the Melbourne Ladies Society (Miss P. H. Myers Hon Secretary, 46 Gore Street Fitzroy Melbourne). The only subscription list published here, so far as I am aware was the list of contributions to the amount I raised, this was printed some time back in the Hebrew Standard, and you have already had particulars of the names and amounts as I sent them with the money.

    Moshe Dayan: Iconic Military Leader Moshe Dayan, with His Iconic Eye Patch, Became the Face of Israel’S Astonishing Six Day War

    Educator’s Guide Moshe Dayan: Iconic Military Leader Moshe Dayan, with his iconic eye patch, became the face of Israel’s astonishing Six Day War. After leading Israel to victory in the 1956 Sinai Campaign, Dayan was appointed defense minister in 1967, ahead of the Six Day War, in order to assuage the public’s growing fear of annihilation. But what was Dayan’s role in the war itself? Why is he credited as the hero of the war, when Levi Eshkol was prime minister and Yitzhak Rabin was IDF chief-of-staff? What was his background and did his questionable private life dampen or heighten his heroic image? Video: https://unpacked.education/video/moshe-dayan-iconic-military-leader/ ​ Further Reading 1.
