\maketitle
Even the choice term, shoah or holocaust, reveals something about one's orientation to Hebrew and the post-WWII state of which it is the official language. This essay seeks to find attitudes about the holocaust in readings assigned as exemplary of American Jews' attitudes towards Israel at the Ben-Gurion University in 2016.
\rule{\linewidth}{0.5pt}
The corpus studied included ten authors, some of which had multiple chapters from the same book or multiple works from different time periods assigned as course readings.
The only class readings with no explicit mention of the Holocaust were Herberg and Karp.
The course began with a reading from Amos Oz in which he invokes the holocaust twice.
"And, yes, there is always the unthinkable-the subterranean fear that if, yes, worst comes to worst, the unthinkable, and Israel is destroyed . . . this time American Jewry would not fail the test given a second chance, it would pass the test that it failed during the Hitler years." He goes on to describe passing the test, "an enormous airlift, a rescue." \autocite[][117]{Sofer1993}
"[If] there would be a catastrope in Israel, it would not be caused by Cossacks or Polish . . . or the Nazis. A catastrophe in Israel might be caused by ourselves out of folly, arrogance, or shortsightedness. . . . But part of our freedom, which we Israeli Jews enjoy and Diaspora Jews do not, is the freedom to avoid catastrophe or to head right into it. \footcite[][118]{Sofer1993}
"We American Jews, after the destruction of the six million who were the main body of Jewry and the immediate source of our traditions, remain as the major part of all the Jews in the Diaspora." \footcite[][11]{Halpern1956}
"America is different-because no Hitler calamity is going to happen here."\footcite[][12]{Halpern1956}
"So overwhelming were the changes in the Jewish situation caused by Nazism, the Second World War . . . that we rarely consider the radical transformation . . . removed from Exile and resettled practically intact in Israel. The refugees in the German DP camps or the broken communities of such countries as Bulgaria and Yugoslavia came to Israel \emph{en masse}.\footcite[][124]{Halpern1956}
"We recall the statistical picture of Jewish-Gentile intermarriage in Central Europe between the Wars which (together with low reproduction rates) led Jewish sociologists to conclude that, before Hitler appeared, these Jewries were already well on the way to biological submergence.\footcite[][131]{Halpern1956}
"As long as the Jewish \emph{massif} of Eastern Europe was in existence," writes Jacob Lestchinsky, "it, from time to time, introduced into Central Europe fresh groups of Jews with their traditions and heritage of Jewish stiffneckedness. These served as an auxiliary factor delaying the process of assimilation and preventing it from becoming complete."\footcite[][36]{Kaplan1959}
"We must remember that, except for the occasional mass massacres perpetrated against our Jewish People, the most tragic experience which it has undergone has been the one of being disillusioned [by a] pseudo-Messiah."\footcite[][180]{Kaplan1959}

IL Supreme Court Justice Aharon Barak, "My life has been threatened by ultra-Orthodox Jewish extremists ever since I made a ruling in favor of Reform Jews. . . . Here was a man who had survived the Nazis by hiding in a crevice in a wall in Kovno now being threatened by Jewish fundamentalists. It was heartbreaking and infuriating."\footcite[][221-222]{Dershowitz1998}
"Two Jews had a plan to assassinate Hitler. . . . "I hope nothing's happened to him!"\footcite[][227]{Dershowitz1998}
"Author Moshe Shamir went on the radio to accuse Rabin of 'collaborating with Nazis.'"\footcite[][230]{Dershowitz1998}
"The tragic history of the first half-centure following the publication of \emph{The Jewish State} - the emergence of Nazism and Communism . . . . The Holocaust, which even Herzl could not have foreseen, conclusively proved that there was no Jewish future in many parts of Europe. The creation of the State of Israel, on the ashes of the Holocaust . . . fulfilled Herzl's prophecy.\footcite[][245]{Dershowitz1998}
"We do believe that America \emph{is} different from Poland, Germany, the former Soviet Union, Egypt, and even France."\footcite[][250]{Dershowitz1998}
