Very sharp writing here. Sometimes I also feel like we are in a "weird version of the Matrix", so to speak, when I see the Nth western news report about how the meany, muscly, manly "fascist" Zionists are doing again what they are best at to advance the interests of their nation with all the zeal and violence that it takes. It's exactly as you say, a weird inversion of the roles.
The historical relationship of the leftists with Jews/Zionism is most eloquent. When the jews were a homeless, battered people who could do nothing but propagate the dissolution of millennia-old identities, borders and nations (they had to in order to justify their very existence), they were the "daddy's girl" of most international worker's associations. They were the quintessential "proletarian" for them, the personification of the ideal of an international classless humanity that "shared" (some'd say steal) all the fruits of international labor. But when the Jews turned tribal, manly and warrior-like... well, we can see the results indeed. Very interesting article all around!
1) The term 'connected to soil' is rather vague, and usually deliberately so. One can say that Israelis are connected to soil in the sense that they are willing to kill and. to a somewhat lesser extent, die for it in a way Jews historically have not been. But they are not connected to soil in the sense of being connected to it any ordinary sense. About 1% of Israel's economy is agriculture, and most of the physical work is done by guest workers from Thailand. The truth is, as you say, because of technological change, being attached to the soil in the way that human beings were for most of their history is not really feasible. The only way it cold be done is either massive technological regression, or massive technological advance that allows us to outsource post-industrial civilization to machines so we can engage in agriculture as a form of recreation. Either case would entail the extinction of something like 9/10 of the human species. I think, on the whole, if you want to be connected to the soil, you should get an allotment.
2) The mercurialness of East European Jewry circa 1900 is rather exaggerated. They had been through 200 years of massive population growth combined with downward economic mobility. The rise of general literacy had taken away many of their traditional niches, even as they became too numerous to be employed in them. For this reason, and not any higher spiritual ideals, it made sense to get them somewhere else. It just turns out that America did that job perfectly well.
3) I agree that the uniqueness of historical 'antisemitism' is typically over-stated. Indeed, I have gone further than this and argued that the term should be retired entirely for anything before about 1830 (https://nonzionism.com/p/what-is-antisemitism). However, I think antisemitism as it developed and snowballed from the 1880s is quite distinct from anti-mercurialism in general, much in the same sense that Marxism-Leninism is distinct from generic 'kill rich people and take their stuff' politics.
Thank you. This was a fascinating read and will certainly make it easier to make sense some of the things going on over there (or even here in Hungary) to this day.
The rhetoric used against the ultra orthodox jews (who are from the Pale of Settlement mostly) is basically the same to this day.
It is also hard to not notice that the conclusion is really similar to what Marx said in the Zur Judenfrage. The capitalism will make everyone Jewish but that will never emancipate the Jews themself.
“Zionism is anti-Semitic, in that it is fundamentally at odds with Jewish identity. For almost two thousand years, Jewishness was defined by homelessness.”
The rub is that homelessness, or Mercurianism, is not actually essential to Jewish identity. (Is the Torah really a story of merchants trying to strike a deal?) Jews consistently mourned their lost homeland and interpreted exile as divine punishment. When the false messiah Sabbatai Zevi appeared in the 17th century, many Jews sold their possessions in anticipation of a return to Zion. Political Zionism was a response to a benighted condition that the mass of Jews sought to overcome. Only a minority of modern (and postmodern) thinkers have tried to turn a historical misfortune into some positive Jewish essence.
The Jew womb recollects the Posidon false god for it to become Mars. The manifest Cronus for it be Mercury the finished one is the same principality as Apollo the rapist or the fire of Jupiter by Thales of Ptahhotep. Karma of the God of Hades by Saturn unseen raped boy.

Interesting article. As a Christian, I believe the only way for Jewish people to reconcile with humanity is to reconcile themselves to Christ. But, those are just my thoughts.

Except the Holocaust is fake, so

Great Writing and thinking.
Writing on this topic is incredibly difficult because Google and Palantir shadow games make research incredibly difficult. Amazing work.

I was thinking today about how Israel owes its existence to Hitler.

Fascinating article, thanks for writing it.
