Tel Aviv was indeed founded in 1909, but the Jewish population in Israel at that time was not much more than 50,000. Between the rise of Mussolini in 1922 and the full implementation of the Nuremberg Laws in 1936 the Jewish population of Israel grew almost 500% to over 420,000 from about 90,000.

And the rise of fascism can arguably be dated to before 1909, with national socialistic and anti-Semitic movements in France during the time of the Dreyfus affair.

Arguably, maybe. But it's a weak argument; and it's not what you meant.
