When I lived in Israel a friend's father told me that in prewar Germany there had been a German-Jewish, nationalist party that picketed the Reichstag with posters saying "heraus mit uns!" (out with us).

He already had a Neocon/American Jabotinskian among his advisors in the form of R. Baruch Korf, who gets significant mention in Militant Zionism in America by Medoff.
