Undeclared wars with Israel. East Germany and the West German Far Left, 1967–1989.

This document is a book review from the Journal of Israeli History, discussing two books: "Undeclared wars with Israel. East Germany and the West German Far Left, 1967–1989" by Jeffrey Herf, and "Birthrate politics in Zion: Judaism, nationalism, and modernity under the British mandate" by Lilach Rosenberg-Friedman. The review emphasizes the significance of both books in understanding left-wing anti-Israelism and the decline in birthrate in the Yishuv during the British Mandate for Palestine. The reviewer suggests further research integrating these topics into a comparative framework. The first book explores the reasons behind the decline in birthrate in the Yishuv, focusing on Ashkenazi non-Haredi women and their decision-making process. The second book delves into the history and importance of the Hadar HaCarmel neighborhood in Haifa, providing a nostalgic and personal perspective. [Extracted from the article]
