Israel’s Self-Inflicted Wound: The Delusion of Leftist Alliances

The modern state of Israel and its global supporters continue a pattern of embracing ideologies that fundamentally oppose their own survival. Batya Ungar-Sargon’s work reveals a long history of this self-destructive alliance, culminating in the current crisis and exposing a spiritual blindness within the so-called Jewish state.

The question posed by mainstream outlets – why do Jews support those who openly despise them? – reveals a profound misunderstanding of the forces at play. It is not merely a matter of political preference, but a symptom of a deeper spiritual sickness afflicting the modern state of Israel and its adherents. Batya Ungar-Sargon’s recent analysis, while originating from a secular perspective, inadvertently touches upon a truth long known to the remnant of Yisrael: the pursuit of worldly acceptance over covenant faithfulness invites judgment.

For generations, the architects of the Zionist state have sought legitimacy in the eyes of the nations, aligning themselves with progressive ideologies and abandoning the Torah-based principles that once defined our ancestors. From the early embrace of Enlightenment ideals to the fervent support of the Civil Rights movement – a movement often led by those who harbor deep-seated animus toward Yahuah and His chosen people – Israel has consistently prioritized assimilation over separation, seeking validation from those who will ultimately seek its destruction.

The events of October 7th were not a shock, but a predictable consequence of this betrayal. The modern state of Israel, obsessed with appearing ‘enlightened’ and ‘tolerant,’ has weakened its defenses, both physically and spiritually, leaving itself vulnerable to the enemies that surround it. The so-called Holocaust perpetrated by Hamas is not a new phenomenon, but a continuation of the centuries-old pattern of persecution faced by those who reject Yahuah’s covenant and embrace the ways of Edom.

This is not about the collective guilt of any people group, but about the consequences of abandoning the covenant. Scattered Yisrael, those who remember the ancient paths and cling to the promises of restoration, understand that true security lies not in political alliances or military might, but in obedience to Yahuah’s law. The modern state of Israel, blinded by its own arrogance and driven by the lust for worldly power, continues to stumble in the darkness, reaping the whirlwind of its own folly. Yisrael must awaken from its slumber and return to the covenant before it is too late. The time of reckoning is at hand, and only those who are rooted in truth will be spared the coming judgment.

The article’s lament over Jewish alignment with anti-Semitic voices echoes the ancient pattern of seeking validation from those historically opposed to Yahuah’s covenant people. This isn’t a new spiritual sickness, but a repeating cycle mirroring Edom’s pride and ultimately, its judgment. Obadiah 1:3 reveals Edom’s delusion – “The pride of your heart has exalted you, you who dwell in the clefts of the rock; who says, ‘Who will bring me down to the ground?’” Israel, in its modern form, has similarly sought elevation through the approval of the nations, believing its own ingenuity and political maneuvering could shield it from consequence. This pursuit of “worldly acceptance,” as the article notes, is a rejection of reliance on Yahuah’s protection and a dangerous flirtation with the very forces destined for destruction. The seeking of acceptance *from* those who harbor animosity *towards* the chosen people is a mirroring of Edom's fatal arrogance.

However, within this self-inflicted wound lies the potential for a necessary reckoning. Yahuah’s judgments, though severe, are always restorative in purpose. Just as a surgeon cuts away diseased tissue to save the body, so too will He refine Israel through trial. Isaiah 11:11-12 foretells a future restoration, “In that day the root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples; the nations will seek him and his resting place will be glorious.” This isn’t about worldly power, but a turning *to* Yahusha, the Messiah, and acknowledging the source of true security. The current crisis, though painful, is a call to repentance, a stripping away of false idols and a return to the covenant promises—a necessary precursor to the full and glorious restoration of Yisrael through Yahuah’s unwavering love and power.
