Is this: http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/
a reasonably reliable source for information?

(31,849 posts)I found it on-line; but, wanted to have folks that know far more than me on Zionism, vet it before getting too deeply into, or placing too much stock in it.
I'll wait for a couple more response, though.

(3,385 posts)JVL is reliable, but it does present the pro-Israel point of view (which I happen to agree with). It's always good to check out multiple sources.

(31,849 posts)I generally triple source things I am not intimately familiar with. But I need a solid base to start with.

(937 posts)It comes from a pro Israel viewpoint but it is accurate and reliable. One thing I like is that its artticles cite many of its sources and provides the links to many of them.
This section "Myths and Facts" provides a lot of info in an organized manner with many citations and links for further study.
