Middle East ponderings of a dissident Jew
“I should much rather see reasonable agreement with the Arabs on the basis of living together in peace than the creation of a Jewish state.” (Albert Einstein, Ideas and Opinions, 1954, p. 190)
"The State idea is not according to my heart. ... It is connected with narrow-mindedness and economic obstacles. I believe it is a bad idea. I have always been against it." (Albert Einstein quoted in Lilienthal, The Zionist Connection II: What Price Peace?, 1983, p. 341)
"When anyone criticizes, however mildly, either Zionism, the State of Israel or the hysterical behavior of some groups of Jews, we have no right to shout 'anti-Semitism!' In any religion one can find a small group of fanatics who hate those of other faiths. Such fanatics are not numerous or important. It is Semitism -- the constant effort of some Jews to assert themselves as Jews -- and not their religion of Judaism which feeds anti-Semitism." (Alfred M. Lilienthal, "Israel's Flag is Not Mine", 1949, Reader's Digest)
