- Against all odds, and amid heated and widespread protests, Israel's first Prime Minister, David Ben Gurion, managed to drag his government, his coalition to reconcile Israel with the Federal Republic of Germany, only a few years after the holocaust. Besides putting massive pressure, using economic, moral and political arguments, he found three unexpected allies: First, the West German Chancellor, Konrad Adenauer – who proved to be a steady and friendly ally all the thorny way. In Israel there were leading German-Jewish Israelis, who held senior posts in the Israeli foreign office, the economy, in cultural life and the press. Many of them had never ceased to believe in "the other Germany" and rejected the pervasive mood in Israel assigning "collective guilt" to all Germans. They were joined by Israeli writers and Journalists who actually travelled to Germany and reported to the Israeli media the "new" story of the Federal republic: a country emerging from ruins. They changed Israeli public discourse on Germany into a story framed by the present of the "New" Germany and the cold war – that, ironically, soon pushed both countries firmly into the western alliance.
