The Jewish Mask provides the elites with three important advantages that allow it to perpetuate their control:
1. The great majority of Israel's public wants a Jewish state. It is good to give the masses a steady dose of Jewish opium.
2.
The State of Israel justifies its existence by citing the persecution
of Jews throughout the long years of exile, culminating in the
Holocaust. This, of course, is a very dismal justification. It leaves Ahmadinejad's question "So why on my account? Let the Germans establish
a state for you!" hanging in the air. Nevertheless, without our ties to
Judaism, even Shulamit Aloni cannot explain why we insist on inserting
ourselves under the fingernails of over a billion Moslems.
3.
Money: A lot of money flows to Israel from Jews throughout the
Diaspora. There are a lot of people in the "inner circle" who live well
from these funds. They are in no hurry to dry up the cash flow that
reinforces their power by negating the Jewish character of the State.
Thus,
the Jewish Mask remains snugly on Israel's face. Even the symbol of the
State of Israel that proudly hangs in all government offices is the
ritual menorah from the Holy Temple. But for decades, the powers that be
have worked behind the mask to neuter Israel's Jewish identity of all
significance.
If not for the
Arabs, it may have worked. But the identity-less Israeli needs the Arab
to allow him to forget that he is a Jew. For example, Israel's Supreme
Court performed amazing contortions to authorize Azmi Bashara's
candidacy for the Knesset. It didn't help the Knesset lawmakers to argue
that Bashara had broken Israeli law by holding traitorous meetings with
Israel's enemies. Despite his meetings and anti-Israel declarations,
the judicial establishment worked frantically to find a solution that
would allow him to be a Knesset member. Why? Because an Arab in the
Knesset proves that you do not have to be a Jew to be an Israeli. An
Arab can also share the dubious distinction. And if you do not have to
be a Jew to be an Israeli, Israel is not a Jewish state.
It
took a long time for the Arabs to realize that their special status
affords them immunity from prosecution. But today they understand it
well: Currently, 20% of Israel's residents are above the law. The
resulting plague of Arab theft, robbery, arson, rape and rioting has
become a chronic Israeli fact of life. Israel allowed Azmi Bashara to
escape the country even though he had passed critical security
information to the Hizbollah so that it would not have to put him on
trial. Israel's first Arab minister explained last week that the laws of
Islam are more important to him than the laws of the State of Israel.
That was an important lesson for all of us to hear. But the most
important lesson is being provided to us today by the wall to wall Arab
refusal to recognize Israel as a Jewish state. They are so sure of their
immunity that they fearlessly undermine the founding ethos of the State
of Israel. Their refusal to recognize Israel as a Jewish state forces
the elites to defend its Jewish mask. What is their alternative? To
forgo the Jewish mask perks that perpetuate their control?
