>>>In addition to introductory and concluding chapters, the book is

>>>pre-Zionist documents; pre-Holocaust ideological factions; the
>>>Holocaust era itself; and a chapter on the Stern Gang and the Nazis.

>>>notes at the beginning of each document are helpful, as are the
>>>glossary and index.
>>>51 Documents assumes a certain knowledge of Zionist history, and
>>>requires a close reading and some deconstructive efforts on the part

>>>are rewarded with some stunning revelations. The reason some Zionists
>>>eschewed the boycott against Hitler s Germany, for instance, is that
>>>they had a financial deal Ha avara with Germany allowing Jews to
>>>exchange their wealth for goods to be exported to Palestine at less of

>>>today are so organized and experienced in their public relations
>>>efforts discover that these battles have been fought before. Moreover,
>>>the section on Nazi and Zionist understandings of nationality versus
>>>citizenship reveals how German and Israeli practices are based on the
>>>same concept.
>>>51 Documents also sheds a whole new light on the term Holocaust
>>>guilt, frequently understood to mean Western, non-Jewish guilt for
>>>not acting against the Holocaust earlier. However, these documents
>>>make it clear that Holocaust guilt began with those Zionists who made
>>>the undoubtedly difficult, but politically expedient choice to place
>>>Eretz-Israel at the top of their priorities, above the lives of their
