The TRUTH Comes Out
I wonder, since Gideon Levy’s article is exposing much of what I have been writing about, will he be added to the list of “racists” and “anti Semites” by the Jewish anti Zionist “supporters”
Jewish people are just that, people, and far from chosenThe idea that grosse bague argent femme originale we are members of the chosen people is deeply ingrained, not only in the Jewish bracelet argent ancre tradition, but also among modern and ostensibly secular Israelis.

By Gideon Levy
On Saturday, the prayer was once again read in the synagogues. “You have chosen us from among all the nations” was once again heard all over the land. The idea that we are a special nation was once again specifically bracelet argent gravure expressed, as is often the case in prayers and in the Torah, and not bague argent 925 coeur only on Yom Kippur.
But the idea that we are members of the chosen people is planted far deeper, and bracelet argent egypte not only in Jewish tradition and among those who observe it modern and ostensibly secular Israel believes in it with all its heart. There are not many other ancient Jewish ideas as deeply implanted in the contemporary Israeli experience as the idea that the “Jewish people,” however it is interpreted, is better than any other nation. If you scratch beneath the skin of almost bague argent homme soldes any Israeli, you’ll discover that he really is convinced of that: We’re the best; the “Jewish genius” is the most successful; the Israel Defense Forces is large bracelet argent the most moral. Nobody will tell them different, we’re simply the best in the world.
This is not only unnecessary and groundless arrogance, it’s bracelet argent topaze bleu also an extremely dangerous idea that enables Israel to behave as it does, with blatant disregard of the world’s feelings. Nor does it lack benighted ultra nationalist and racist foundations. It’s good and well that a nation considers itself successful. bracelet argent tete de loup The Jewish people have many reasons for that, of course, and many accomplishments of which to boast, as does the State of Israel, which is a kind of wonder, almost a miracle. But among all bague argent taille 43 these, prominent in its absence is an equally important national trait: modesty. It is hard to accuse the Israelis of having it.
At the basis of Israeli arrogance lies the idea that this really is a special nation with special traits that are shared by no other nation. You can see that among Israeli travelers abroad; you can hear it from anyone who comes into contact with foreigners; you can sense it in the deeper currents of Israeli policy. The Americans are “foolish,” the Indians are “primitive,” the Germans are “square,” the Chinese are “strange,” the Scandinavians are “naive,” the Italians are “clowns” and the Arabs are . Arabs.
Only we know what’s good for us, and not only for us but for the entire world. There is nothing like Israeli ingenuity, there is nothing similar to Jewish intelligence, the Jewish brain invents new ideas for us like no other brain, because we’re the best, bro.
There are many opportunities to see this idea in action. The latest example not only erupted from the synagogues on Yom Kippur, but was observed on the eve of the holiday, when we heard the very happy news that another Israeli scientist had won the Nobel Prize. And it really was heartwarming: Prof. Dan Shechtman certainly deserves the prize, but Israel does not bracelet argent symbole infini deserve the sentimental national celebration that immediately erupted. In a society where blunders and failures are always the responsibility of the bracelet argent femme maille palmier individual, achievements are nationalized and belong to us, all of us.
We were all together on April 8, 1982, in Shechtman’s laboratory in Maryland when he first observed bracelet argent avec initiales his quasicrystal; we’re all with him now, on the way to Stockholm.
The achievement of the individual immediately becomes a communal achievement, the communal achievement immediately becomes more irrefutable proof of Israel’s superiority. “The bijoux bague argent pas cher crystal is ours;” “The secret of our existence;” “National pride;” and the bracelet argent triangle “Israeli brain” screamed the headlines in a tasteless and unfounded display at the news of the individual prize.
In order to confirm the baseless notion that we are all partners to Shechtman’s impressive achievement, they immediately come with the calculations: how many Nobel Prizes “we” have won, and where that places us relative to the size of the population. The list of bracelet argent à la mode Jewish Nobel laureates throughout the generations bracelet argent avec pierre bleu is immediately put on display, as though saying that they won because they were Jewish. Every prize that is added to the collection immediately reinforces the idea that it’s a matter of clear genetic superiority. That is the bracelet argent ancien ebay other side of racism on the one hand, trampling the other; on the other, we praise and exalt the “chosen people” above everyone else. Two sides of the same coin: unconscionable racism.
We should, of course, continue to read the prayer “You have chosen us.” It is part of the Jewish heritage. But Israel should long since have freed itself from its contemporary and practical meaning. No, we are not a special nation we haven’t been for a long bracelet argent femme maille alternée time. Nor are we chosen, certainly not above other nations. Every summer for two months for 10 formative years during my childhood and adolescence I attended Jewish summer camp. There, each morning, I saluted a foreign flag, bracelet argent ceramique femme dressed in a uniform reflecting its colors, sang a foreign national anthem, learned a foreign language, learned foreign folk songs and dances, and was taught that Israel was the true homeland. Emigration to Israel was considered the highest virtue, and, like many other Jewish teens of my generation, I spent two summers working in Israel bracelet argent livre on a collective farm while I contemplated that possibility. More tacitly and subconsciously, I was taught the superiority of my people to the gentiles bague argent pour ado fille who had oppressed us. We were taught to view non Jews as untrustworthy outsiders, people from whom sudden gusts of hatred might be anticipated, people less sensitive, intelligent, and moral than ourselves. We were also taught that the lesson of our dark history is that we could rely on bracelet argent rigide gucci no one.”Truth Counts: DON COUNT ON GETTING IT
