Israel's Moment is a major new account of how a Jewish state came
to be forged in the shadow of World War Two and the Holocaust and
the onset of the Cold War. Drawing on new research in government,
public and private archives, Jeffrey Herf exposes the political
realities that underpinned support for and opposition to Zionist
aspirations in Palestine. In an unprecedented international
account, he explores the role of the United States, the Arab
States, the Palestine Arabs, the Zionists, and key European
governments from Britain and France to the Soviet Union,
Czechoslovakia and Poland. His findings reveal a spectrum of
support and opposition that stood in sharp contrast to the
political coordinates that emerged during the Cold War, shedding
new light on how and why the state of Israel was established in
1948 and challenging conventional associations of left and right,
imperialism and anti-imperialism, and racism and anti-racism.
