| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Loyalty to Israel and criticism of it by the World Jewry is an important issue, and is more complex than usually thought. This issue is not limited to public or secretive statements of harsh or mild criticism of Israeli governments and their policies. Loyalty and criticism are closely linked to many aspects of events and changes taking place in the Diaspora and in Israel. In this context, there is no doubt that Diaspora Jews and Jews from Israel are now experiencing fundamental and significant changes and face basic problems which affect mutual loyalty and criticism between Diaspora Jews and Israelis. Since the origins and nature of these changes which affect loyalty and criticism is complex, these must be thoroughly examined. Below is a brief discussion of these changes followed by an analysis of their impact on loyalty and criticism in the current relations between World Jewry and Israel. |
