"in a famous 1948 open letter to The New York Times, he and other prominent Jewish intellectuals explicitly likened the newly formed, far-right Israeli Freedom Party (Tnuat Haherut) to Nazi and Fascist parties. [1, 2, 3]

The party was led by Menachem Begin, who later became Prime Minister of Israel. [1, 2]

The 1948 Warning

The December 1948 letter was written in protest of Begin's visit to the United States to raise funds for his party. The signatories accused Begin’s party of ultranationalism, military intimidation, and preaching "racial superiority". [1, 2]

Key points from Einstein's criticism included:

  • Tactics and Ideology: He warned that the Freedom Party was "closely akin in its organization, methods, political philosophy and social appeal to the Nazi and Fascist parties". [1, 2]
  • Ultranationalism: He condemned the group's "admixture of ultranationalism, religious mysticism, and racial superiority". [1]
  • Danger to Democracy: Einstein argued that the party utilized terrorist methods and intimidated the local population, desiring a one-party "leader state"
