6. | Description | Abstract | I am not sure that the Holocaust makes Israel a special case, but it has certainly had a profound impact on Zionist ideology. A key element in the growth of Zionist aspirations was the rise of Nazi Germany. In the eyes of many Jews the promise of emancipation and liberation appeared to be a false hope. With the onset of World War II, Zionist aspirations intensified despite Arab opposition. Once images of the concentration camps were released and news of the destruction of six million Jews became widely known, world Jewry united in support for a Jewish homeland. |
