Moses Hess - Father of Zionism and Communism

*** It seems that these guys are all connected at some level***

Before Marx, and Before Herzel

Rome-and-Jerulalem

Hess was probably responsible for several "Marxian" slogans and ideas, including "religion is the opium of the people.

He also is "credited" with Marx's notion that Jews were in love with money.  However, Hess became  reluctant to base all history on economic causes and class struggle, and he came to see the struggle of races, or nationalities, as the prime factor of past history.

From 1861 to 1863 he lived in Germany, where he became acquainted with the rising tide of German anti-Semitism and the assimilationist Jewish movement.

He changed his name to Moses in protest against assimilationism.  In this period he apparently returned to religion in the form of Spinoza's pantheism, which he somehow did not find incompatible with orthodoxy. . He published "Rome and Jerusalem " in 1862.  Hess contemplated the rise of Italian nationalism and the German reaction to it, and from this he arrived at the idea of Jewish national revival, and at his prescient understanding that the Germans would not be tolerant of the national aspirations of others and would be particularly intolerant of the Jews.

Hess's Rome and Jerusalem went unnoticed in his time, along with the rest of this writings. German Jews were bent on assimilation and did not heed Hess's unfashionable warnings. His work did not stimulate any political activity or discussion. Hess's contribution, became important only in retrospect, as the Zionist movement began to crystallize and to generate an audience.

Moses Hess was born in Bonn to an orthodox Jewish family.
He adopted the name "Moritz," but subsequently reverted to his birthname "Moses", thus re-claiming his Jewish identity.
***Name Change***

He received a traditional Jewish education but as an autodidact learnt German and French as a means to secular learning. Initially, Hess was a utopian socialist but following his acquaintance with Marx he moved toward a more scientific determinist understanding. Hess contributed toward Marx's "Communist Manifesto" written in 1848 in particular the term "religion as the opium of the masses."Following the unification of Italy, the rise of nationalism in that country and the emergence of German antisemitism, Hess returned to his Jewish roots. His booklet Rome and Jerusalem; The Last National Question, written in 1862 is evidence of this change. However, his proposed Jewish State was to be socialist in nature. Hess died in Paris although at his request was buried in the Jewish cemetery in Cologne. However, in 1961 his remains were transferred to Israel where they were buried in the Kinneret cemetery alongside other Socialist-Zionists such as Nahum Syrkin, Ber Borochov, and Berl Katznelson.

Spinoza was born in Amsterdam in 1632, into a family of Jewish emigrants fleeing persecution in Portugal.

You will notice the Nautilus which seems to have importance in Masonry because of the sacred geometry, but I am sure there might be other reasons as well.

QuoteHis communistic activity, however, was soon curtailed. Hess, coming more and
more under the influence of Marx, adopted his views and began to preach the gospel
of Economic Socialism. In his articles published in the subsequent year 1846 in
Marx's Jahrbuecher, he advocated class struggle and declares himself a champion of
the proletariat. Marx, however, could not forgive Hess for his enthusiasm and
warmth, and often denounced him. Even in the Communist Manifesto, he directed
some bitter shafts at him, calling him a dreamer and phantasist.

QuoteThe fundamental principle of Hess's thought is what he terms "the genetic view."
It is based on the teaching of Spinoza, of which he was a devoted follower. Hess,
though influenced greatly by Hegel and the post-Hegelian philosophy, especially by
that of Feuerbach, always remained a Spinozist, yet his teaching extends far beyond
that of Spinoza, and is more adaptable to life, and more fruitful as a social factor.
According to his view, the world, in spite of its multiplicity and variety of phases, is
a unity. There is no place in it for a dualism of matter and spirit, or other divisions;
it is all one,

It seems to me that this Hess Document supports the statements made by Jim Condit's Final Solution to Adolf Hitler.

Mr Waxman also restates the info as well in the intro.

I also find the name Hess interesting.

Good post John :)  Hess plays an important role in the development of Zionism and indeed communism.  Additional info on Hess:

Yes it does appear Bjerknes is correct in stating the liberation from the ghettos of the Jews by Napoleon and his fallout with the dominating Jewish powers.

Just wanted to add this.  Interesting how nature has mathematical principles in it.  Beauty at work ;)

The last time I heard the name Hess it was connected with a town in Germany.
A Holocaust Museum is situated there.
Oh yeah, the town is suspected of hiding out Hitler and Eva.
This after we lost the war.
The big timers always survive.
Apparently they are running America now.
Any one think Hitler said Nam si, JFK no.
I mean if Hitler were alive in the 60s.

People don't see the big picture, or back far enough to see it.
A simple story on the greedy people at NASA forgets all the
beginnings that have kept on going in that rats nest of rocket scientists.

A perfect chance for me to bring up history.
So I get accused of tying in the biggest conspiracies of all time.
His thread was dead from the start and no new info to be added thats for sure.

Referring to the jobs  at NASA:

The biggest Iluminazi job going even since Truman let them in in a
SECRET not so unconditional surrender of the Nazis.
Did you know?
Here:
Q: How did Truman knock out this plan?
A: Using Nazi radio communications.
Its all a big secret.
There are suspicions that Hitler called for JFK's death.
Well besides having NASA and cronies living on the space gravy train.
Toot toot.
Just try and take those CCs away.
What about the Post Office using limos for lunch, did that stop.
Life is not like the Moon that comes to a permanent stop and never
shows its backside.

And Hess might have saved us from all this if he gave up Hitler.
