Tel-Chai Nation: What's wrong with Moshe Feiglin

I often thought in past years Feiglin was a shady character who wasn't as altruistic as one wished. And in this election, he's not doing much better:

New Right leader Naftali Bennett issued a fierce attack on the Zehut Party of former Likud MK Moshe Feiglin on Wednesday at a Hebrew language conference in Tel Aviv that was sponsored by The Jerusalem Post Group, the parent company of the Maariv newspaper and the Post.

Bennett's attack came after Zehut started obtaining a similar amount of seats in polls as the New Right, taking votes away from the party of Bennett and Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked. He used the speech and his answers to questions from Maariv columnists to reach out to Feiglin's young voters in the religious Zionist movement.

"I say to each of them - Feiglin is a man with good intentions, but behind him are people on the Left as well as on the Right, and that is exactly the incident we had with [former Tzomet Party leader Raphael] Eitan in 1992. The people he brought in dismantled our house. Every vote that goes to Feiglin brings the bulldozers closer to your houses. Do not vote to destroy your house." Bennett accused Feiglin of being "almost a phenomenon of messianism." He said that Feiglin wrote two months before the 2005 Gaza disengagement that it would not happen.

"A new generation has grown who do not know the old Feiglin, but this is the same book in a different cover," Bennett said.

Mocking Blue and White leaders' experience dealing with the Gaza Strip, Bennett said that, "generations of defense ministers and generals with 117 and 217 years of experience have been explaining to us that there is no solution."

He vowed that if appointed defense minister, he would restore quiet to the South in what he called "a very sophisticated air operation, in which we will not enter soldiers if there is no need."

I don't think Bennett is a perfect politician, but then neither is Feiglin, and certainly not if he supports legalizing cannabis, which is a very disgusting platform to go by. Anybody thinking of supporting Feiglin would do well to ponder the leftists he's running with, and the potential damage they could end up doing like 3 of Eitan's former MKs did when they betrayed the party. I'd like to think Feiglin's offering an interesting platform leftists could support, but unfortunately, it's all bound to be coming at the expense of the right. That's why he's just not a reliable candidate, and not one to vote for.

FINALLY!

The REAL reasons why the Leftists hate Israel:

“If the occupation [of the West Bank] ended
tomorrow, Israel would still have a nationalist
and religious identity at odds with the Left’s
broadly post-nationalist and post-religious vision.”

James Kirchick (a Brookings Institution fellow) said:

“For a growing number of progressives,
anti-Semitism has become an ideological
obligation, as central to their political
identity as the Universal Basic Income,
Green New Deal, a 70-percent marginal
tax rate, and free higher education.

These progressives, of course, cannot o
penly say this. Anti-Semitism is bad.
Some of their best friends are Jews.
The Holocaust happened.

So they need to redefine anti-Semitism out of existence…”

“Reading the many progressive identity-based
defenses of [Democratic congresswoman Ilhan] Omar,
which repeatedly and pointlessly invoke
the fact that she is a hijabi-wearing black refugee
being criticized by a white native-born
American woman, one gets the impression that
this particular legislator can pretty much say
whatever she wants and expect to be absolved for it:

Her canonization as a left-wing
hero is necessary, and irrevocable.”

“[Congresswoman Ilhan] Omar cannnot
be an anti-Semite because members of
‘marginalized’ groups are inherently virtuous.

This is the ultimate logic of identity politics.”

“The thing is, too many (goyim) Western
Leftists want to see everything as
black and white, oppressed vs. oppressor.

Many do not understand the nuance of
the Israel/Palestine conflict.

And what’s worse, many don’t care
to understand the full story.

I was actually blocked by a feminist page
for trying to explain why comparing
Israel’s military tactics to full-on
genocide is a slippery slope.

Despite saying numerous times that
I’m critical of the Israeli government’s
policies, I was banned and had all
my comments deleted.

When other Jews on the thread asked
why I was banned, the admin entirely
misconstrued everything I said.”
