Get off my land

 



Shortly before I moved to Israel an American Zionist living in the New York area told me that I'd find the most idealistic Jews in Israel. He was referring to olim. I have found quite the opposite, that the olim aren't really even Orthodox Jews. All they care about is living on the land. If their kids are killed in Gaza, no matter they are living on the land. If their kids go off the derech, no matter they are living on the land. The land, the land. It all reminds me of Westerns and stories of shotgun bearing hicks from Appalachia declaring "Get off my land." "You are on my land sheriff. I suggest you leave."

It's all one big macho, gentile ego trip. At least the shotgun carrier in West Virginia is a farmer. He actually has some connection to the land. With the so-called olim it's conceptual. That's why it's a false religion. It's a worship of a notion about a thing. Could have been JC. Could have been a stone. It is a stone. That's why they'll violate the entire Torah to keep it. Torah is irrelevant to Zionists, even so-called Religious Zionists. They are attached to an idol.
