'[The author's] laudable book notably abstains from any moral indignation or anti-Zionist posturing.' Journal of Central European History
'University of Vermont historian Francis R. Nicosia has presented an impressive study of the relationship between Zionism and anti-Semitism in the Third Reich … Nicosia vehemently rejects the argument that Zionists collaborated with the Nazis. The necessary contact and the level of cooperation of the German Zionists with the Nazi regime from 1933 to 1941 can in no way be construed as a secret arrangement or collaboration.' Jüdische Allgemeine
'Nicosia has analyzed an impressive number of documents from German and Zionist archives … In [the] important … chapter [on] the cooperation between Zionists and National Socialists, Nicosia emphasizes that in no way was it about equal parties, but rather about the persecutors and those they persecuted - and that the latter were sent to their deaths as soon as the Nazi state no longer had any use for them.' translated from Frankfürter Allgemeine Zeitung
