Abstract

This article discusses three new books that explore different aspects of Zionism and its relationship with the American Jewish community. The books examine the historical attitudes of American Jews towards Zionism, the role of emotion in diasporic Zionism, and the power dynamics between American Jewish philanthropy and Israel. The article also highlights the changing support for Israel among American Jews, with older generations being more attached to Israel compared to younger generations. Overall, these books provide valuable insights into the complex relationship between American Jews and Zionism. [Extracted from the article]
