ABSTRACT
The originators and leaders of Brichah, and behind them the leaders of the Zionist movement, were duty-bound to help their brethren, fleeing panic-stricken from Eastern Europe. What they did was to channel this flow intelligently into a reservoir that would turn the very misery of the people into a powerful weapon that would lead them to a new and better life, and thus achieve a basic humanitarian aim by political and national means. 1
