of unfavorable criticism, hostil-
ity and abuse. 1t is still charged
that we are looking backwards |
into the past. We admit that
we place the highest value upon
our history and the lessons it
teaches for the future, and we
acknowledge that historical con-
tinuity is our greatest asset and
the basis of our hopes. We are
told that our eyes are turned to-
ward the backward Orient, and
we answer that it is only there
that the genius of our people will
again reveal itself. We recog-
nize that the Jews cannot live q
normal Jewish life and develop
along the lines of Jewish thought
and ideals in a non-Jewish en-
vironment. Amid Christian sur
roundings the fountain of Juda-
ism either becomes a stagnant
pool or it runs dry. The Zion
lists are convinced that it is nee
essary to establish a Jewish cen
ter in Palestine, where the Jews
will have the opportunity within
the near future Of being in tbs
majority. The historic associa,
tions of the land will contribute
greatly to q regeneration of the
Jewish spirit and the develop
ment of normal Jewish life.
Among the Jews scattered
throughout the world who will
participate in the founding of
this center Jewish consciousness
will increase and Jewish life will
be quickened. With the center
established, we shall have a
strengthened spiritual bond, a
bond of Jewish unity, cementing
the Jews of the various lands.
This center will be the anchor of
all Jewish life. From it Jewish
thought and inspiration will per-
meate all our scattered communi-
ties.
We are attacked because the
Zionist program does not make
any reference to our religion,
and because there are in our
ranks not only those of all shades
Of religious belief, from the most
orthodox to the most reformed,
but even the non-religious. 1t is
but natural that this attack
should be made by those preach
ers who, having inherited the
spirit of medieval inquisitors
should Be ready to apply the bar

and Zionists in the full spirit of

question: care you a Jew?'
One need sign no articles, need
give no confession of faith. The !
