examples: text: In the north of Europe and America—especially in the Scandinavian and Anglo-Saxon countries, in all Germanic and in some measure also in Celtic ones—Palestinism has permeated so far that one fancies himself to be among Jews.
ref: 1949 [1948], “The Words of Heinrich Heine”, in Lewis Browne, editor, The Wisdom of Israel, London: Michael Joseph Ltd, page 513:
text: What then? Must we Jews disappear? What an insult to me and those I love and cherish! Were the Jewish nationalists right with their Palestinism, which had its logic and consistency? So, the balance rose and fell, with assimilation on one scale and Palestinism on the other, until an experience in February, 1884, when assimilation was hurled off the balance.
ref: 1972, Hayim Zhitlowsky, “The Jewish Factor in My Socialism”, in Irving Howe, Eliezer Greenberg, editors, Voices from the Yiddish: Essays, Memoirs, Diaries, Ann Arbor, MI: University of Michigan Press, →ISBN, page 130:
