theodore roosevelt, constant reading. he would be up all night long.e had insomnia and pore through books. t.r. wrote like 35 books and 150,000 letters. he read. the book that i think influenced him a lot was charles darwin's "on the origins of species" which came out in 1859, right when his father was creating the american museum of natural history. we probably take for granted what a revolution darwin's book was on evolution and species. theodore roosevelt spoke multiple languages and could read books in french or german. jefferson, that classic line of john f. kennedy, there was a dinner at the white house that there were never that many william people as there were that night except when jefferson dined alone. those two in my mind are the ones. sometimes a writer can help a president along. harry truman was not a great writer. he never graduated from high school. his memoirs are solid. he was living in independence, missouri without a lot going on with the vietnam war and civil rights and there was truman at his home admiral miller the filmmaker ca

at the end of the 19th century, when the austrian journalist theodor hertzel wrote these sentences in the book the jewish state, perhaps even his most optimistic zionist supporters did not imagine that they would have a state in palestine 50 years later. herzl he was born a jew, but he did not believe in the holy things of the jewish religion. he grew up in europe , and he got his enlightened ideas more from the european enlightenment period. herzl was interested in separating religion from politics and mentioned democracy as his main goal. jewish law in a state that perpetuates. in his mind, he had no place and his emphasis was only on ethnic group. at the beginning of its formation, zionism, in fact , looked at the jews more as a discussion as a nationality rather than a religion wanting to take it into account. now, of course, over time , different groups and groups have formed, some of them have their own views. it was cultural. emphasizing the issue of cultural zionism and enriching their own people in terms of cultural resources and the so-called production of civilization and s

leaders led them, and now these people are facing an identity crisis that was caused by a zionist like theodor hertzel, who pushed the jews from all over the world to the historical land of palestine because they do not belong to palestine as their main source. one of the most important issues that always bothers me is that we live in the middle east , but we refuse to accept its dominant culture . this issue has exacerbated the identity crisis in israel. it is painful for me, but the identity crisis shows how much protection from israel, zionism project and jewish identity israel is important for our government today, we struggle to preserve the jewish identity and zionism project. from the beginning of the establishment of this regime until today, the zionist leaders have tried to promote the palestinian arabs as the innate enemies of the jews and to justify the inhumane actions and unwarranted wars against the palestinian people for the survival of themselves and their regime, but this political trick in recent years and with existence of an extremist like benjamin netanyahu at work is the

theodor herzl dreams of the zionist regime from zanil to the euphrates. at the time of the announcement of the existence of the zionist regime, egypt was the first arab country that turned the egyptian government from israel's staunch enemy into its ally after the death of gamal abdel nasser and the rise of anwar sadat. after the peace negotiations , egypt was the first arab country to normalize its relations it started with the zionists. the united states bureau of land reforms has designed a project to build 100 dams in ethiopia. it is decided that the karadubi dams, mabil , mandia and al-nahzeh will be built in ethiopia within a 10-year period. the client of the dam construction project in ethiopia is building a hundred excuses to start relations between the zionist regime and the ethiopians. ethiopia is the source of the nile river. in july 2016, benjamin netanyahu said in front of the ethiopian parliament: we use ethiopian technology to use its water resources. we support . simultaneously with netanyahu's visit to ethiopia, the first phase of the con

at the end of the 19th century, when theodor hertzel, an austrian journalist , wrote these sentences in the book the jewish state: he also did not imagine that they would have a state in palestine 50 years later. herzl was born jewish, but he did not believe in the sacredness of the jewish religion. he had grown up in europe and his enlightened thoughts were more than the period europe had become enlightened. herzl to separation. dean was interested in politics and mentioned democracy as his main goal. the jewish sharia had no place in the government that hertzel had in mind, and the emphasis was only on ethnicity. at the beginning of its formation, zionism, in fact, looked at jews more as a discussion as a nationality than a religion wants to consider it. now, of course, over time, nahle and different groups were formed, some of them had a cultural point of view, emphasizing the issue of cultural zionism and... enriching their own people in terms of cultural resources and so-called production of civilization. and such issues, but the thing is that from the very beginning zionism did
