In a series of Jerusalem Post articles, Gol Kalev shows how Israel-bashing has become today’s existential to Judaism.
It has both a populous retail component: Occupationalsim, and institutional destruction mechanisms that deploy Modern day blood libels.
In such dogmatic circumstances, Hasbara (Israeli PR) is nearly futile. Yet a broad global recognition that Judaism has transformed to Judaism 3.0, and Zionism is now its anchor, would dramatically mitigate the existential threat.
Applying Herzl’s frameworks, such recognition could turn threats to Judaism into enablers of its survivability, and could pave the path to peace
