[edit] Jewish Communist Party with this name
Where does the Jewish Communist Party Poale Zion mentioned at [1] come into the picture? is this the same as the Poale Zion Left or is it another grouping? --Soman 16:59, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Which countries?
What other countries did Poale Zion exist in apart from Russia and Israel? Clearly there was a branch in Britain until very recently, which has since renamed itself the Jewish Labour Movement ( http://www.jlm.org.uk ). -86.133.247.156 20:27, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
- Poland, Austria, US, Canada, probably others. Need citations. BobFromBrockley 12:04, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
- There needs to be some clarification on how the movement was built up. As I understand there was an international organization with national chapter. Correct? And when the Poalei Zion split, two separate international organizations emerged? --Soman 12:12, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
- I believe that there was an international organisation, the World Union of Poale Zion, from 1909, which split into a left and right. And there were local organisations, which had different degrees of connection to the World Union, but I'm not sure if the left/right split occured in every national party.

[edit] Paole Zion?
The book Jewish Radicals by William J. Fishman repeatedly refers to a Paole Zion (please note the spelling) movement. I'm assuming he's referring to the subject of this article. Transliteration from Yiddish and Hebrew is often very irregular, so that's probably the reason for this discrepancy. Do you know if this is a common spelling? Should it be mentioned in the article?--Carabinieri (talk) 22:45, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, Fishman is refering to the same group in East End Jewish Radicals (e.g. noting founding of Leeds branch in 1905, p.306). Fishman is a native Yiddish speaker, but his transliteration of Yiddish and Hebrew words into roman letters is highly non-standard! BobFromBrockley (talk) 16:43, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Paole Zion and the Jewish Social Democratic Party of Galicia
There has been a suggestion that the entry on the Jewish Social Democratic Party of Galicia/Jewish Socialist Party of Galicia be merged into that of Poale Zion. This would be a mistake as the JSDP and PZ were rival organisations which existed at the same time in Galicia. The JSDP was anti-Zionist in its politics. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rickkuhn (talk • contribs) 21:50, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Totally agree. BobFromBrockley (talk) 10:29, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
