Written by a Jewish Woman, I suggest that you might find the following information of great interest.
From the book … Sipping from the Nile … My exodus from Egypt … author … Jean Naggar
Despite that understanding that her efforts could permanently undermine the way of life she had always known, Auntie Helen, accompanied by her distinctive cane, traveled alone again and again to Suez and Ismailia after the end of the Second World War to supervise and expedite the loading of Jews emigrating to Palestine onto makeshift boats in the dead of night.
Certainly, the formation of the State of Israel changed the dynamic between Arab and Jew in the Middle East. It became a polarizing magnet, leading to huge rifts in the standing social structure, cutting through generations of tradition and peaceable interaction.
While most Jews world-wide rejoiced that Jews would at last have a homeland, those in Arab countries cast a wary eye at the chasm that was opening beside them, threatening irrevocably their safety and their way of life.
While I thought of my aunt as a fascinating person, I had no concept of the seismic shift that her activities were helping to produce in the internal psychological geography of the Arab countries, which were never again to accept their Jewish neighbors as brothers.
With the creation of the State of Israel, militant Islam was granted a voice and a cause.
