In several of his feuilletons Vladimir Jabotinsky described his disgust and disdain for Jim Crow in the United States. He condemned racism of that kind, viewing the Jim Crow system as unacceptable in human society because of bigotry, denial of rights based on skin color, and institutionalized violence. However, he did not see any connection between his horror about inequality in the American South and ideas he expressed in "The Iron Wall" or even with fundraising for Revisionist Zionism in South Africa. This leads us to infer (based on other sources) that at once Jabotinsky stood by principles, but at the same time he was a political activist in need of moral compromise. The two dimensions sometimes clashed.
