What has caused the spontaneous combustion of Jew hatred worldwide? Part 2
Just to recap, in Part 1 of this article, I concentrated on the social aspects of what has caused the spontaneous combustion of Jew-hatred worldwide, which we are seeing these days, following the Hamas massacre of Oct. 7, which was perpetrated upon over a thousand innocents in Israel.
Pointing out that most of the Gaza sympathizers are young people between the ages of 18-30, this is the age group that is particularly connected to social media which often provides a certain skewed slant in order to serve a specific agenda. Coupled with their ignorance of truth, based on history, facts and context, their proclivity is to accept what is trending by influencers, celebrities and the media. TikTok has played a great role in this.
It was also mentioned that their tendency is to rely upon unsubstantiated sound bites with false accusations that tend to be nothing more than empty slogans that they are happy to repeat, not just because they are too lazy or disinterested to check for themselves, but also because they like being part of a pack.
It is this need to copy others that has brought about another spontaneous combustion, in recent years, in the form of gender dysphoria. One kid questioned their birth gender, and suddenly whole classes were struggling with the bizarre phenomenon. If you think about it, it’s not much different, because these two issues, although very different, emerged suddenly, gathering greater support as they took hold.
Finally, there are the years of Woke indoctrination that young people have received, placing everyone into the category of either oppressed or oppressor. What started with white oppressors toward people of color has now been replaced by Jewish oppressors toward the people of Gaza (who somehow came to represent all of Palestine, the oppressed).
This newfangled narrative has served to bring meaning to these champions of the downtrodden, empowering them with the feeling that they are making the world a better place.
All of these variables have converged at a time when Israel, although having to have fought its way to the top, despite its many enemies and unjustified hatred, is still perceived to be mighty, powerful and indifferent to the plight of the weak.
Nothing is mentioned about the 22 other Arab nations that could have, on many occasions, absorbed these people into their societies to help them improve their lives. Yet, no one cared enough, preferring to let Israel deal with the problem and the blame.
It has been a deliberate burden, bequeathed to Israel by an apathetic world to the plight of those for whom they supposedly “weep and support.”
But there is yet another, even more dynamic, dimension to this, and it is the spiritual one.
It stands to reason that if there is a force of good, there is also a force of evil, both diabolically opposed to one another. The force of evil, in spiritual terms, is defined as Satan, who became the enemy of God when he rebelled against Him.
Ever since that time, he has done everything within his power to continue his plan to usurp God’s ultimate authority over all things. His first order of business was to attack God’s creation, which resulted in sin (another word for rebellion against God) entering the world.
From there, violence, murder and chaos ensued, but Satan’s greatest aspiration was to destroy the very people God created for Himself – the ones through whom world redemption would come. If he could pull that off, then he would inflict the most pain and the greatest coup upon the Almighty.
Although that could never be, he has, nonetheless, tried to annihilate and eradicate the Chosen People from the face of the earth. The problem is that he didn’t succeed throughout 2,000 years of dispersion, nor did it happen by man’s attempt, throughout millennia, to bring about “the final solution.” Whether it was the Inquisition, bloody massacres, exile within their host nations or the Holocaust, a Judenrein (Jew-free) world did not happen.
While his plan got a bit sidelined, once Israel became a nation and the Jews were able to return to their ancestral home, as predicted by the Biblical prophets, he tried to use every surrounding nation to, once again, destroy God’s people.
Time was of the essence, because Satan wanted, more than anything, to be assured that world redemption could not occur. In order to do that, he, first, had to make sure to destroy the people from whom it would come, and that is why he continues, against all odds, in order to prevent humanity from ever being fully reconciled to their Creator.
This explains why the Jewish people will have no shalom (peace) without the Sar Shalom (Prince of Peace) as foretold by the prophet Isaiah (9:6).
In his great zeal to finish off the Jewish people, Satan has found a new generation of helpers who are useful tools in order to point an accusing finger and say that God’s chosen are nothing more than oppressors, overlords, tyrants and the tormentors of a persecuted people who owe their misery solely to the Jewish nation.
Of course, nothing could be further from the truth, and Oct. 7 stands as evidence that had Israel not opened its doors to offer employment and opportunity to the citizens of Gaza, many of whom worked in the local kibbutzim that bordered their homes, Hamas terrorists would not have been able to amass the kind of detailed information, which aided them in their attack, but which was provided to them by those who were enveloped with kindness by kibbutz members. Their naivete and belief in the goodness of mankind deceived them into believing that there was worth and value in these Gazans who so cruelly betrayed them in the end.
Now, after yet another attempt to destroy Israel, with endless rocket attacks and threats of annihilation, we must continue to fight for the land that God gave us, and faithfully promised as our inheritance.
The spontaneous combustion of Jew-hatred, at its core, is the Satanic plan to put an end to us, and Satan has found willing instruments to do the work. The Woke philosophy which has become so much a part of the psyche of these young people is nothing more than a demonic byproduct of the destroyer who found a clever way to appeal to this generation.
It’s truly heartbreaking to see these young people so deceived and so eager to accomplish this evil plan, but by rejecting Israel, they have also rejected the God of Israel, and the tragic irony is that they are most in need of redemption!
May they find true deliverance from the loving God who has preserved us as a nation before Him throughout the centuries despite those who have risen up against us but never succeeded in triumphing over the Eternal Lord of Heaven and Earth!
