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.
