How should the Jewish world respond to the nightmarish onslaught that we’re living through? What’s happening is unprecedented. We’re not merely dealing with antisemitism roaring out of control across the west. Antizionism is being deployed as an obscene moral prism through which society is being reframed. It’s redefining lies as truth, casting victims as oppressors and defaming Israel’s defensive war against genocidal extermination as a genocide itself. It’s attempting to erase the heritage of the Jews in their ancestral homeland, erase the victimisation of Jews in the State of Israel, and even erase the attempt to erase the Jews from the face of the earth in the Holocaust. Antizionism is being deployed to erase reason itself.
