Complete Zionism, the establishment of a Jewish State to which all Jews will be compulsorily transferred is the only way to solve the Jewish problem, the “Deutsche Zeitung” and other Nationalist and Hitlerist papers write, quoting with approval a new book by a Dutchman named Egon von Winghene, which has just appeared in German under the title “Aryan Race, Christian Culture and the Jewish Problem”.
The solution of the Jewish problem cannot be found by each country grappling with it separately, the author writes. It must be made an international question. No country would ever dream of trying to stamp out a dangerous epidemic by confining the work to its own frontiers, and similarly, the fight against the Jewish problem cannot be confined to any one country. Such internationalism would not be a betrayal of Nationalism, but would be the only way of saving the national distinctiveness of each of the many countries which are now threatened by Jewish cultural forms and the Jewish will to dominate.
The writer declares himself as strongly opposed to antisemitic violence or incitement to pogroms. Such antisemitism, he says, only pleases the Jews, for it gives them the right to say that they are innocent martyrs and in a way it justifies Jewish claims. The only way is to separate the Jewish people completely from the Aryan world, to compel all Jews and all people of Jewish origin to settle in one country which will be given up entirely to them under the supervision of the whole Aryan world, simultaneously withdrawing all citizenship rights from Jews in all Aryan countries.
This book, the “Deutsche Zeitung” says, is a really valuable contribution to national thought.
