Walter Lehn, Uri Davis. «The Jewish National Fund»(en inglés). Consultado el 7 de marzo de 2009. «We must expropriate gently the private property on the state assigned to us. We shall try to spirit the penniless population across the border by procuring employment for it in the transit countries, while denying it employment in our country. The property owners will come over to our side. Both the process of expropriation and the removal of the poor must be carried out discretely and circumspectly. Let the owners of the immoveable property believe that they are cheating us, selling us things for more than they are worth. But we are not going to sell them anything back. We shall sell only to Jews, and all real estate will be traded only among Jews.» citando el diario de Herzl (Diaries, 88-89), el 12 de junio de 1895.
Efraim Karsh. «Benny Morris's Reign of Error, Revisited. The Post-Zionist Critique»(en inglés). Consultado el 7 de marzo de 2009. «When we occupy the land, we shall bring immediate benefits to the state that receives us. We must expropriate gently the private property on the estates assigned to us. We shall try to spirit the penniless population across the border by procuring employment for it in the transit countries, while denying it any employment in our country. The property owners will come over to our side. Both the process of expropriation and the removal of the poor must be carried out discretely and circumspectly … It goes without saying that we shall respectfully tolerate persons of other faiths and protect their property, their honor, and their freedom with the harshest means of coercion. This is another area in which we shall set the entire world a wonderful example … Should there be many such immovable owners in individual areas [who would not sell their property to us], we shall simply leave them there and develop our commerce in the direction of other areas which belong to us.(en cursiva los pasajes omitidos)». citando el diario de Herzl (Diaries, 88-89), el 12 de junio de 1895.
