A 1948 account recalls Albert Einstein and 19 scholars issuing an urgent statement about a rising party in Israel linked to fascist tactics. The New York Times published a rebuttal by the leader four days later, who defended his movement as fighters for freedom. The piece notes the clash over Einstein's foray into politics and the gravity of labeling a movement fascist.
