The Butterfly Effect ... "In the degradation of Dreyfus, the crowd massed outside the gates shouting" Death! Death to Jews! " The Paris correspondent of the Neue Freie Presse Vienna, a Jew, was so upset that he returned to his country and wrote the first sentences of his treatise, The Jewish State , which was affirmed the need for Jews to get their own state. His name was Theodor Herzl. The very first seeds for the formation of the State of Israel are there in the Dreyfus Affair. " (Geert Mak, a European Tour through twentieth century , p. 31)
Much the temporal version of the butterfly effect, right?
