More information on Medinat Weimar‘s goals and principles: www.medinatweimar.org
10. Medinat Weimar believes that Thuringia with its important place in German culture,
history of anti-Semitism and German nationalism, legacy of Jewish life and culture
as well as its shrinking population and a weak economy is the optimal place for a new
Jewish state. A Jewish state in Thuringia will not only provide a resolution to the plight
of world Jewry, but also an economic and cultural resolution to Thuringia’s plight as a
struggling former East German province.
11. Medinat Weimar is a sober and anti-fascist solution to many problems that the state
of Thuringia is facing as a former East German province and will foster the development
of the country for the benefit of all its inhabitants. A Jewish state is not a punishment but
a prize. Through Thuringia we offer all German people an opportunity for redemption as
well as liberation from the ghosts of their past.
12. Medinat Weimar wants to question and explore the rise of nationalism versus the
reality of globalization and migration and the re-emergence of religion as a cultural
identifier versus the secular globalization of capital.
13. Medinat Weimar is not a realistic movement, but rather one that seeks to agitate and
provoke by taking anti-Semitic, neo-liberal, nationalistic, Zionist arguments to their
unreasonable conclusions illustrating their inner logic and absurdity.
We extend our hand to all the peoples of Thuringia in an offer of peace and good neighbourliness,
and appeal to them to establish bonds of cooperation and mutual help with our movement and to
the future sovereign Jewish people settled in the land. Medinat Weimar is prepared to do its share
in a common effort for the advancement of the entire region.
