Igor Muradyan, political scientist, shared his thoughts on the possible
participation of Israel in the plans of revival of the USSR
A veteran of the Soviet diplomacy was ambassador of the USSR to Arab
states, told me that Golda Mayer told diplomats from Romania that in
case Israel is posed to danger, and the United States prefers Arabs
as primary partners, "we will raise the red flag and become the 16th
soviet republic."
In the memoirs of Golda Mayer and in more fundamental studies of her
life and work, there is no such pronouncement by the prime minister
of Israel, but there is not even a hint on such a passage. But in
some circles Golda Mayer's pronouncement is still commented. Igor
Rostislavovich Shafarevich told me what he offered to his Jewish
friends even before the collapse of the USSR, "solve all the problems
of Israel through joining the Soviet Union in the role of an associated
republic".
It would be nonsensical to remember the given stories with suspicious
content had I not received a message not a long time ago. My classmates
Igor Bukhman (he had this surname earlier) and Alexander Rogozin
(maternal surname Hendelsman) working for a famous consulting company
in the United States informed me that the Jewish social circles
are quite seriously discussing the possibility to support the ideas
aimed at the restoration of the Soviet Union. The purpose of this new
"project" is to accept Israel in this proposed state. Igor Bukhman
(I went to school with him for 10 years) and Alexander Rogozin
(I played water polo with him in the same team) are deprived of
excessive fantasy and prefer distinct initiatives, they say that
having become professional analysts, the active participants of
various discussions on the post-Soviet space have extended a number of
futuristic suggestions on the perspectives of Russia and its neighbors.
However, all would be a folk discussion had there not been for
the non-public state doctrine of Israel on the "Eurasian project"
which evaluates that besides the United States and Canada, the
most comfortable social and cultural and political space for the
Jews worldwide is Eurasia at the basis of which is Russia where
anti-Semitism and racism are too strong. In addition, it is possible
that the most interesting of all is that the "doctrine" points that
the most preferable political and administrative format for Eurasia
is authoritarianism as a guarantee of stability and security.
Perhaps the extravagant idea of Golda Mayer is still urgent. 30 years
ago I witnessed the talk of the rabbi of the synagogue in Moscow,
Adolf Fishman, with those on the leave. He said, "Remember my words,
you are going to return" to which an imposing lady responded,
"A good person wouldn't be named Adolf."
