“HATIKWAH” AND REFORM

nationalistic positions by persuading
the other fellow, if not themselves, of
the utter “perishableness” of the
thought that there could be such a
thing as conflict between an Ameri
can and a Palestinian nationalism.
Accordingly, it may be true that
there are some American Reform Jews
who like to conceive of America as an
isolated Chauvinistic nationalism, just
as there are some American Zionists
who love to glorify the unquestioned
idealism and courage of pioneer Cha-
lutzim in leaving their native habitat
for a Palestinian Zion while the glori-
fiers themselves prefer to “sit tight”
in the political luxury and physical
ease of their own American Zion. Re
form Judaism, however, insists on a
nationalism, whether in America or in
Palestine, that is universalistic, and not
merely Chauvinistic. A distinctive Jew
ish nationalism in America is no more
consistent in its philosophy than is the
suppositious American nationalism of
the Ku Klux Klan. Whatever the case
in other nationalisms, America with
out an “international mind” is as
fundamentally un-American as Israel
without a universalistic consciousness
is essentially un-Jewish.
