      To Stop Marx, They Made Zion. Theodore Herzl, one of the founding Zionists, once wrote “We want to let respectable antisemites participate in our project, respecting their independence which is valuable to us as a sort of people’s control authority.” In 1895 he wrote, “It would be an excellent idea to call in respectable, accredited anti-Semites as liquidators of [Jewish] property. To the people they would vouch for the fact that we do not want to bring about the impoverishment of the countries we leave. The anti-Semites will become our most dependable friends, the anti-Semitic countries our allies.”
