We are one people-our enemies have made us one whether we will or not, as has repeatedly happened in history. Affliction binds us together, and thus united, we suddenly discover our strength. Yes, we are strong enough to form a State, and, indeed, a model State.

Wir sind ein Volk – der Feind macht uns ohne unseren Willen dazu, wie das immer in der Geschichte so war. In der Bedrängniss stehen wir zusammen und da entdecken wir plötzlich unsere Kraft. Ja, wir haben die Kraft, einen Staat, und zwar einen Musterstaat zu bilden. Wir haben alle menschlichen und sachlichen Mittel, die dazu nöthig sind.

Theodor Herzl

We are one people-our enemies have made us one whether we will or not, as has repeatedly happened in history. Affliction binds us together, and thus united, we suddenly discover our strength. Yes, we are strong enough to form a State, and, indeed, a model State.
