From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jews Against Zionism is a book written by professor Thomas A. Kolsky from Montgomery County Community College (Blue Bell, Pennsylvania) and Adjunct Professor of Political Science at Temple University, Ambler Campus. In 1990.[1]

It documents the history of an organized American Jewish opposition to Zionism during the 1940s.

There is literature on the Zionist movement, but the Jewish opposition to Zionism has received only marginal and usually negative attention. In this book, Thomas A. Kolsky examines the phenomenon of Jewish anti-Zionism, its roots, and its results.

In 1942, a number of dissident Reform rabbis founded the American Council for Judaism, as a Jewish organization created to oppose [1]and fight against Zionism and the establishment of a Jewish state. Emphasizing the purely religious nature of Judaism and unequivocally rejecting Jewish nationalism. It advocated establishment of a democratic state wherein all citizens, regardless of their religion, would enjoy equal political rights.

Kolsky documents both the history of Zionism and the history of American Jews,[2]
