If Judaism stresses involvement, nonconformity, resistance to oppression and injustice why are Jews annexing?

Question

so much land in the Middle East and packing the original inhabitants off to refuge camps? Is the idea of murdering and abducting those who contest your claim on the land part of your resistance to oppression? Sure the current conflict can be blamed on the abduction of 2 Israeli soldiers. Are you saying Jews have never abducted any Arabs and aren't holding hundreds of them in jails?

Interestingly, none of this would be a problem, if Jews did not claim Palestine as their homeland and stayed in Europe.

Answer 1

Mainly because most Zionists are not Jews. Neither are Israelis.

Israelis are mostly atheists, former Stalinists or German Nazis, or their descendants. Zionism is equivalent to Nazism and is based on "national socialism" not "Judaism."

Answer 2

Here's a counter question:
"Where in Judaism does it stress involvement, nonconformity, resistance to oppression and injustice?"
Also, isn't involvement and non-conformity sort of contradictory? (In other words, if you are a non conformist, how does one get invovled? Would that require some sort of conformity?)
But I digress.

The truth of the matter is that this current war in Lebanon is not about land at all. Israel is not trying to conquer Lebanon nor has it expressed any desire to do so.
Nor did Israel place any Arabs at any time in any refugee camp, forcibly or otherwise. That was the UN. And it is that organization plus the unwillingness of any other country to absorb those people who bear the responsibility for letting them remain there.
And you are correct.
This conflict is not simply about the abduction of two soldiers.
It is about Hezbollah.
Hezbollah, after Israel withdrew from the south part of Lebanon, did not disarm like was supposed to happen. They instead armed themselves even more. The UNIFIL forces did nothing. Iran was sending and still sends millions of dollars in funding, intelligence, and weapons.
Thus, the kidnapping of the two soldiers was merely the so called straw that broke the camel's back.
Hezbollah is an existential threat to Israel. For them NOT to go after Hezbollah would be irresponsible at best.

Answer 3

please tell me exactly what land in the middle east are you referring to?

give me a city the exact area the parcels of land something concrete than just all of Israel.

I would strongly suggest you do a little research on how the Israeli government acquired the land that it has in Israel instead of making assumptions based on nothing

Answer 4

Good question! I've notice that no one has answered the question yet even though it's been here for a while...
