In 1896 a book called "The Jewish State" written by an agnostic Jew, who didn't attend synagogue nor have his sons circumcised, became the foundations of a political movement called Zionism. The ideology was the founding of a country purely for the Jews.
1899: The "Father of Zionism" proposed the 'Final Solution of the Jewish question' & proposed liquidation of Jewish wealth.
“It is essential that the sufferings of Jews.. . become worse. . . this will assist in realization of our plans. . .I have an excellent idea. . . I shall induce anti-Semites to liquidate Jewish wealth. . . The anti-Semites will assist us thereby in that they will strengthen the persecution and oppression of Jews. The anti-Semites shall be our best friends”. (From his Diary, Part I, pp. 16)
