David Ben-Gurion. He was the leader of the Zionist movement from the 1930s onwards &amp; was the first Prime Minister of Israel, chiefly responsible for expelling ~750,000 Palestinians from their homes in 1948. David Ben Gurion \u201cregularly\u201d liked Menachem Begin to Hitler, thus rendering him an antisemite according to the IHRA definition of antisemitism (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/srzTsxy6gN\"  rel=\"\">https:\/\/jstor.org\/stable\/30245767<\/a><\/p>\n<p>) 2. Albert Einstein. In 1948, he described the Israeli political party Herut as a \u201cpolitical party closely akin in its organization, methods, political philosophy &amp; social appeal to Nazi and fascist parties.\u201d According to the IHRA definition, that makes him an antisemite.

Chaim Weizmann. He was the leader of the Zionist movement in the 1910s, 1920s and 1930s.

Max Nordau. He was Herzl\u2019s right-hand man. He wrote many best-selling works in the 1880s (Conventional Lies of Our Civilization and Paradoxes) that are replete with antisemitic portrayals of the body of \u201cthe Jew\u201d as circumcised &amp; diseased, especially with leprosy. He also believed Jews were a race and different races had different inherent abilities (Jews apparently excelled at politics because of their realistic shrewdness). His ideas resurfaced among one of the most virulent American white supremacists and antisemites of his era, Madison Grant. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/g6XAFQhXOM\"  rel=\"\">https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/fordham-scholarship-online\/book\/22258\/chapter-abstract\/182458673?redirectedFrom=fulltext&amp;utm_source=palestine.beehiiv.com&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=a-brief-history-of-zionist-anti-semitism&amp;login=false<\/a><\/p>\n<p>and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/R9nKmqZYaW\"  rel=\"\">https:\/\/books.google.com.mx\/books?hl=en&amp;lr=&amp;id=AGZIDgAAQBAJ&amp;oi=fnd&amp;pg=PT7&amp;dq=The+Making+of+Modern+Zionism:+The+Intellectual+Origins+of+the+Jewish+State+Paperback+%E2%80%93+April+4,+2017&amp;ots=TeGN_0xEPE&amp;sig=blPAp2y7e93uogfg4jJ_Pf9r_tE&amp;redir_esc=y#v=onepage&amp;q&amp;f=false<\/a><\/p>\n<p>8.
