A column that recently appeared in the Wall Street Journal online entitled, "Saving Civilization from Itself", was written by Arthur Herman, the author of the book called "Churchill and the Jews". In the article, Herman discusses the high esteem that Winston Churchill felt for the Jewish people and his support for the homeland that would later be know as Israel. The article includes this passage:
"A student of history, Churchill came to feel that Judaism was the bedrock of traditional Western moral and political principles--and Churchill was of a generation that preferred to talk about principles instead of "values." For Europeans to turn against the Jew, he argued, was for them to strike at their own roots and reject an essential part of their civilization--"that corporate strength, that personal and special driving power" that Jews had brought for hundreds of years to Europe's arts, sciences and institutions."
