Indianapolis Indiana Jewish Post (Newspaper) - September 27, 1946, Indianapolis, IndianaQuot in the perplexity of the times Quot Judah l. Magnos hebrew University press Jerusalem. In the perplexity of the times Quot is a moving volume containing chiefly addresses delivered at the opening or graduation exercises of the hebrew University in Jerusalem All deeply religious and ethically motivated. In a War and the remnant of Israel delivered at the opening of the academic year on october 29. 1939, or. Magnes explains Why he a life Long pacifist supports the War against Hitler. That i t would right no wrongs would not inaugurate a Happy Era of peace and truth and righteousness he concedes quite frankly. Such a result appeared beaten most unlikely a Mere Chance. Yet he supported the conflict and urged others to do so because Quot the taking up of arms though never righteous is inevitable at this Hitler the embodiment of satan had to be Over thrown if humanity and even a vestige of any spiritual religious or ethical values were to survive. In these dark Days of disillusion when British imperialism is laying the groundwork for another War when we jews Are being double crossed As we have never been in history and by so called friends this conviction remains valid and timely. Even in our dismay and helplessness we dare not forget that had Hitler triumphed humanity would have been utterly doomed. Quot moral issues in democracy Quot excoriated the private profit motive in our capitalistic Economy the pauper nation and enslavement of the masses War profiteering and other evils of our social system. Quot can such dreadful inequality be called democracy Quot asks or. Magnes. Even in Palestine profiteering raised its ugly head and yet the religious leaders and institutions remained silent. Sarcastically does he ask Quot do the synagogues Burn with indignation and drive the profiteers out on the contrary these Are relied upon to be among the synagogues main props. Do the professors write books and the teachers raise up disciples in support of a Freer Juster world almost Complete silence in the pulpit and in the chair. It it simpler to immune oneself in an Ivory Tower and to give the profiteer free reign for the accumulation of his economic and political while addressed to Palestine jewry Are these words not As equally applicable and More so to american Israel to american rabbis and synagogue leaders another application of democracy is Quot the end of colonial solemnly does or. Magnes warn that democracy cannot tolerate the perpetuation of that kind of imperialism which has countenanced the degraded poverty of hundreds of millions of human beings in different parts of the Empire while at the same time the coffers of the conquerors were would that Bevin and Atlee would learn this great truth Quot for thy Sake Are we killed All the Day Long psalm 44 23 is very Likely the most poignant and touching address of the volume. The author searched for a meaning if there be any of the wholesale Slaughter of six million jews in the Gas Chambers and crematories of Europe. Quot is it possible that this can happen under gods heaven a or. Magnes struggles manfully with his problem of human suffering. He finds Solace in Faith and closes with the prayer that god should Quot teach us Only this does Man suffer for thy Sake o lord Quot the graduates of april 1939, heard a message entitled a servants a in which they were Bidden to go Forth into the world not in quest of Fame Power or wealth not in search of a career As the world understands it but As servants of Israel and humanity. What Sublime yet eternally necessary admonition that Quot what is called Success among men is often a lie and deceit and what is called failure is often the result of generosity and self sacrifice. Success among both individuals and nations is All too often achieved through betrayal. Failure All too often comes because a Man will not lie or kill or betray his friends or steal the widows would that All graduates of our american institutions of learning were similarly instructed by their mentors. As the Leader of the so called thud movement or. Magnes is in perpetual and bitter conflict with practically the entire Palestine jewish Community. In an address entitled Quot rebellion a he openly approves the so called Quot illegal immigration into Palestine but opposes the use of arms except in self defense. He relies exclusively on Quot moral claims and Public Opin ion Quot to win for the jew his Palestine rights and he fervently reiterates Zechariah a Quot not by might the Sharp contradiction of this belief with the authors attitude on the War with Hitler is not Only obvious but striking. If Force was not Only permissible but necessary to destroy Hitler Why should it not be equally so in the Battle against the British who Are As determined to destroy jewish Palestine As was Hitler to annihilate the jews the tactics of the British against the a Shuv a the searching looting and pillaging of colonies the military Rule under the anti semitic general Barker the quartering of troops in the land for no military reason the blockade of Palestine Waters by the British Navy and above and beyond All the brutal removal of refugees from Bretz Israel to Cyprus do not these crimes drive us to the unhappy conclusion that Quot the taking up of arms though never righteous is inevitable at this juncture a precisely As it was against Hitler that or. Magne does not raise his voice in bitter denunciation of the present British government a group of faithless men who Only a year or two ago As leaders of the labor party were ardent supporters of a jewish Palestine is one of he ineffable jewish tragedies of our Day. Instead of visiting his Wrath upon Bevin and Attlee who Are emulating Titus and Vespasian instead of summoning the British to abandon their criminal and wicked imperialism he pathetically and obstinately clings to an idealism which against British treachery and Power is about As effective As the gospel of no resistance would have been against Hitler. His own lengthy letter to Gandhi one of the Best chapters in the Book in which he indicates the fallacies of Gandhi a doctrine is the Best and most potent argument against his own position. The efforts to Quot United arabs and jews serve directly British imperialistic interests in the Middle East which must perpetuate the poverty and wretchedness and ignorance of the Arab masses. The arabs and jews would promptly unite if the British armies would depart from Palestine if the sly and dishonest and treacherous British colonial officials who deliberately stir up Arab against jew would leave the holy land which they desecrate daily and hourly. The whole Quot in Udo business is fallacious because the Basic problem of Palestine is not the Arab either native or foreign but the British who instead of giving Palestine to the jews Are wickedly determined in violation of their pledged word and the mandate to incorporate the country in the British Empire and what is worse to make it the Keystone of Imperial defense. That or. Magnes deliberately closes his eyes to this evil and criminal British diplomacy is intellectual blindness of an unpardonable character. His thud is a Mirage because the exclusive obstacle to it is the British government which jubilantly exploits the movement to encourage the falsehood that Arab opposition alone precludes a jewish state. This is a downright lie since the British control lock Stock and barrel every Arab land ruler and chieftain who like marionettes dance to British music which is Poison to the jews to the Arab masses and to humanity at Large. However in spite of this Peculiar myopia the Book is a Noble presentation of jewish ideals a defense of god torah and Israel.

There Are no records of jewish settlement in Michigan prior to 1848, when about a dozen families of bavarian jews settled in Detroit. Within a desert. 22, Cade some of the or-1850 Ginal settlers had travelled to the so called Quot Copper country Quot in the upper Peninsula of Michigan where not a few Laid the foundation of a comfortable Fortune by peddling in the mining districts.
