Sin of Modern Israel

In this modern era, I have have seen the most troubling issue of Israel and its place in Judaism and the world. I do have to admit my bais first, in my early years as a Jew, I always been quite critical of Israel, which has put criticism onto me. I will argue that there is significance reason as Jews we should not support Zionism in a Jewish content.

For what I think may be the first arguement to come into one's mind is from Talmund thought. Ketubot 111a.4 tells the idea of the three oaths. It tells the Jews "... not ascend to Eretz Yisrael as a wall" and "should not rebel against the rule of the nations of the world", it also tells the gentiles of the world "should not subjugate the Jews excessively". The verse after that reinforces the idea by saying "... prohibition against Jews immigrating to Eretz Yisrael".

Now for the arguments against this. One may agrue this is a one time commandment, which I respond with it is not, rather it is a generational oath we take on as Jews. What makes us different from Gentiles is our observing of YHWH as the highest god deserving of worship who we take his word upon generations. Another argument is Jews are just settling the land, which I claim falsehood to. Jews are not going little by little as the verse says onto the land just to settle, Jews came in by massive amounts, took over land, and wage war against the people of Palestine.

There have been many other Jews who argue for anti-zionism. Notably the Yevsektsia, a section of the Communist Party of the USSR, who opposed "Jewish bourgeois nationalism". This is a fair point to make, what is Israel but a bourgeois state made with nationalistic pride. I must also send praises to the Neturei Karta who beliefs sum up mine. We must wait for the Messiah and we can't self-determinly take the land back.

What I demand is to stop the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and return the land back to the people of Palestine. We Jews must stay in exile, for that is where we were placed. We must learn to live among the gentiles of the world and their nations. The Muslims are our siblings like another other human.

As Micah 4 put it best: "Though all the peoples walk each in the names of its gods, we will walk in the name of the eternal our God". I take this as we should not take the offensive side of war and let the people of other gods be, for we have ours. Let the Palestinians go, don't take their land, force Judaism, or push futher, resulting in more war.

If you are Jewish, I plead with you to not take the side of terrorist or Israel, but take side of the people. Don't hate the Israeli, only the ones who support this war and sin. Don't hate the Palestinians, they are humans like us who deserve all, only hate the ones who attack the citizens of Israel, but remember the condictions that put them in that place. I speak to the gentiles not to hate Jews nor support Israel. Also to the Christian, stop supporting Israel because you believe Jesus will come down and kill all of us, shut it, if you think that you are evil itself and reflect on oneself.
