While the post in question may meet the criteria for "good" propaganda in the test of the "merit of the cause", fails to do so in the sense of "correctness of information. The claim that there are 4 sitting judges on the Supreme Court is false, as is the claim that Jews are elevated to the position of SCOTUS at a rate of 40 times more than non Jews. By spinning flagrant canards to give your cause merit, you actually damage your cause by forcing it to be seen in the light of dishonesty and bigotry as opposed to the underlying issue, separation of church and state" and the meting out of the principle in equitable doses. I am not Jewish nor am I a Christian Zionist. By invoking Christian Zionism into an argument that was void of it in the initial post, what you seem to be claiming is that the six sitting Roman Catholic judges are Christian Zionists, and thus are the same as Jews and should be counted as such.

Shlomi Cohen, 31, was shot and killed while driving in a military vehicle close to the border, midnight, Israeli forces were patrolling the area where the shooting had taken place and identified “suspicious movements,” said Lt.

She added that “due to the perceived threat” that they posed, the Israeli soldiers had fired “precise shots” at two suspects, members of the Lebanese armed forces and that one was apparently killed who were believed to have been involved in the earlier shooting, in nobody’s interest for things to escalate but it is our right to defend our border, Last week, shots were fired toward an Israeli patrol from across the border, but the Israeli military said it may have been errant fire from Lebanese hunters, 2006, Israel fought a 34-day war with Hezbollah, the Lebanese Shiite organization.

Abbas’ dream will evaporate. Israel will become stronger than ever, Will this be the legacy of Israel’s Left? wtoped?-Violins and Gas Chambers, 1892, cofounder of the World Zionist Organization and social critic Max Nordau wrote his most famous work, Degeneration, which presented a scathing critique of European society as it devolved into what he described as a “horrible train of murder, incendiarism, rapine, [and] torture.” Nordau systematically analyzed and dismantled theories put forth by elite thinkers in his time, such as Nietzsche and Tolstoy. Specifically, Nietzsche’s premise, that, ‘there is no good and there is no evil,’ and his praise of sin as man’s ‘great consolation,’ was what Nordau found repugnant. The explicit approval of such notions was visible in European art and literature. In French society, for example, the “contempt for traditional views and customs of morality” led to conspicuous consumption and a devaluation of moral virtue, and by extent, a deterioration of societal structures which had till then promoted social cohesion. This was illustrated by the French’s inclination to imitate art which was inherently unrestrained and subject to fleeting passions as opposed to principles of decency. Nordau found the praise of such ideas and pseudo-intellectuals by elite society to be doubly offensive. In addition to advocating for morally bankrupt principles, calling such principles ‘enlightened‘ was a gross inversion of objective norms and values, a reflection of the degenerate state into which European society became immersed, within these two historical contexts, ‘Enlightened’ evil and Stockholm Syndrome-that the conundrum of the so called post  Zionist movement can perhaps be better comprehended. Post Zionism posits that the Zionist era has passed and is at best a historical era which had its run but is no longer in session. Generally Jews who belong to this camp are of the left wing progressive persuasion who also fail to understand what Zionism is. They usually understand Zionism to be merely a response to anti Semitism and thus no longer necessary. They are largely ignorant of the emancipatory nature of Zionism, which, must like the civil rights movement in America, was rooted in ethnic and cultural pride. Zionism, while it was indeed reactionary, was also proactive in its advancement of an indigenous people’s rights. The Jewish right to settle in its ancient homeland is not simply due to the spread of anti Semitism; It is a matter of fact, regardless of whatever political climate Jews find themselves in, in the Diaspora. Post Zionists also do not grasp the scope of anti Semitism, not in the Middle East nor its growth in Europe. Indeed, they often, through Stockholm Syndrome, contribute to it, this is a very hard pill to swallow. Nevertheless the symptom must be properly diagnosed if the patient is to heal. Perhaps no greater example of such a festering sore on the heart of the Jewish people can be found then in that of the political organization, J Street. Claiming to be pro Israel and pro peace, J Street is neither and advances no such policies. Founded in 2008, its major pronouncement is that a two state solution to the Arab Jewish conflict is what must be advanced both for the sake of Israeli security and American stability in the region. This of course precludes a detailed analysis of the situation, and a study into all possible prognosis to the problem. This premature announcement of an end, rather then examining the complexity of the situation and then coming to an educated conclusion reflective of those same complex factors, epitomizes J Street’s creed: The end justifies the means. while the prisoners were “the hardest of the hardcore,” it certainly was worth releasing them as they represent the “center of the sense of Palestinian dignity and respect.” Tracy presses him further, asking how can Jstreet support this and simultaneously claim it is pro-Israel security iapb/
