[A] Jewishstate in part [of Palestine] is not an end, but a beginning … Our possessionis important not only for itself ... through this we increase our power,and every increase in power facilitates getting hold of the country in itsentirety. Establishing a [small] state … will serve as a very potent lever inour historical effort to redeem the whole country.”
