Leon Trotsky (right) and Bela Kun (Wikipedia)

The results of the Los Angeles Jewish Journal survey were rather predictable: 49% of American Jews support the agreement with Iran. Almost double than the majority of Americans - 28%. Ironically, the survey was conducted during Tisha B'Av, when Jews mourn the destruction of two Temples. It seems that nowadays Jews are ready to single-handedly destroy the "Third Temple"– Israel.

The significant part of Jewish community in the US suffers from severe, chronic, and, I fear, incurable disease named – "Tikkun Olam" ("Repairing the World"), a current messianic ideology, a modern version of the secular religion of salvation "here and now", a successor to the bankrupt communism.

… One hundred years ago Jews rushed at full speed to the World Revolution. They believed that it would lead the world to universal happiness for the next one or two generations. The consequences were horrific.

In Central and Eastern Europe Jewish Messianism strengthened and legitimated most disgusting and vile instincts of the crowds. Leaders of Bavarian Council Republic Kurt Eisner, Gustav Landauer, Ernst Toller and Eugen Levine played a significant role in the awakening of the monster, dormant in the depths of the German soul. The leaders of the German Communists - Arkadi Maslow, Werner Scholem, Arthur Rosenberg, Heinz Neumann -were extremely active in the struggle against shaky Weimar government and against Zionism. Ruth Fischer fervently urged to destroy "Jewish capitalists" and ... to cooperate with German nationalists.

The leader of Hungarian Soviet Republic and one of the organizers of "Red Revolutionary Terror" Bela Kun together with Tibor Szamuely and György Lukacs contributed profoundly to the ascension of Admiral Miklos Horthy.

There were no doubts that Germany and other Eastern European nations had been strongly infested by deadly virus of anti-Semitism. However, by destroying national customs and traditions of their countries, Jewish Communists were the ones to unfasten the valves of hatred and finally gave it legitimacy. The consequences are too well known...

The Russian Revolution was also characterized by disproportionately high participation of Jews. Trotsky, Kamenev, Zinoviev, Radek, Kaganovich, director of the NKVD Genrikh Yagoda, main organizer of Gulag Naftaly Frenkel, head of the GULAG Soviet prison camp system Matvei Berman, leader of the League of the Militant Godless organization Yemelyan Yaroslavsky and many, countless other Jews built "New World", simultaneously destroying the world of Jewry. "Yevsektsiya"’s battle with "Jewish class enemy" resulted in the persecution of Judaism, Hebrew and national culture.

It did not save the Jews from the Stalinist terror, which began with the battle against "rootless cosmopolitan" and "The Doctors' Plot" and was supposed to end with the deportation of Jews to Siberia and desolate steppes of Kazakhstan (according to Stalin’s plan half of Soviet Jews were doomed to die on the road due to hunger, diseases and pogroms). The Divine Power have liberated the Jews – the tyrant made his last gasp of his life on Purim.

The Jews in the US did not even attempt to rescue their brothers and sisters in Europe, but too many of them were communists who kept supporting Stalin, including Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, David Greenglass and Harry Gold which passed information about the atomic bomb to despot. Jews very passionately rushed to protect blacks. Blacks didn’t appreciate their effort too much. The Jews are still perceived by a mass of Afro-Americans with a mixture of hostility and suspicion; there are still popular speculations about the insidious Jewish moneylenders and slavers in this environment, not to mention the "Nation of Islam" leader Louis Farrakhan which at one time was close to the world's most progressive president.

A Moscow rabbi once said that "trotskies make the revolution and bronsteins pay their bills" (Bronstein was Trotsky's real name). But for creators of the "New World" it doesn’t make sense. They continue to believe to Thomas More’s "Utopia". They believe that "Tikkun Olam" is possible: not by means of "World Revolution" but by same-sex marriages, legalization of cannabis, mass emigration from Mexica and above all, universal peace with all enemies - the Palestinians, Iran, "Muslim brothers", HAMAS, etc.

Israel doesn’t match this formula of universal salvation of "here and now" for people who twice elected Obama. Represented by endless structures and endless leaders; by The J Street, New Israel Fund, The Jewish Communal Fund, JCRC-NY, American Jewish Committee (AJC), UJA-Federation; by Peter Beinart, Thomas Friedman, Jeffrey Goldberg, Max Blumenthal, Marcia Freedman, Hedva Radovanitz, Eve Ensler, Lotty Cottin Pogrebin; by "Angry 58 signatories"; by many Reform and Conservative Rabies, they don’t care about neither Israel nor future generations. Their idee fixe is "Repairing the World".

It’s a messianic ideology, absolutely extraneous to reality.

"Tikkun Olam" envisages establishment of "Peace Now" – "Shalom Achshav". History is lacking examples of eternal peace. Moreover, no one heard of "Peace Now" between two worst enemies. Peace was achieved by total defeat of one of the enemies - it ceased to exist at all, as it occurred with Carthage, the Byzantine Empire, the Caliphate of Cordoba and the kingdom of Crusaders, or capitulated. If USA and USSR hadn’t crushed Germany and Japan, the peace in Europe and the Far East, even fragile, would’ve been impossible. The "Peace Now" is achievable only in case of minor border conflicts or scuffle for sphere of influence, and only if both parties recognize and respect each other. How to achieve "Peace Now" if the Palestinians indisputably refuse to recognize the legitimacy of the Jewish state, the Jewish people and their history? Preachers of "Tikkun Olam" don’t have an answer.

Jews, followers of a new "religion of salvation", live with a consistent guilt complex. Israel expelled fellah from their lands in 1948. It is building settlements, killing children in Gaza and occupies Palestinian lands. They know that "occupation" was result of Arab wars that aimed to "push Israel to the sea". They know the consequences of Israel’s complete withdrawal from Gaza. They must know that Mahmoud Abbas does not recognize the State of Israel as a Jewish one and blatantly proclaims a policy of "Judenrein" in Judea and Samaria. It’s well-known that deadly terror pursued Jews even before any hint of settlements. They know that the goal of Hamas, like Nazi Germany, is genocide of the Jews. It is a common routine, and it raises two questions.

The first - should people have guilt towards those who hate them? The second - do other nations have any guilt complex for not fictional but real atrocities?

A century ago Turks massacred 1.5 million Armenians, nearly a million Greeks and half a million Christian Assyrians. Have you heard any laments of Turkish intellectuals? Russians destroyed tens of millions people - from the Circassians in the 19th century to 6-8 million Ukrainians, who died in The Holodomor, to Kalmyks, Tatars, Koreans, Chechens, Baltic people and Poles, deported to Siberia by Stalin. Had anyone in Russia expressed any regrets for these atrocities? These nations didn’t threaten Russia - they were just in the wrong place, at the wrong time. Were carpet-bombing of Dresden and Hamburg by British army justified? Bombs didn’t fall on military targets, they fell on refugees, children and women - it was a cold-blooded and cruel act of revenge. Did the British feel guilty for these crimes? Hardly.

Sudeten Germans and Silesia Germans deported by Czechs and Poles because of their collaboration with the Nazis, while Bulgarians deported 150 thousand Turks. Do they have any qualms of conscience?

Congo, as far as I know, didn’t threaten Belgium. This didn’t prevent Belgians to murder millions of Congolese by slave labor, cutting off hands and whipping to death. Belgians should dust their heads with ashes, instead they educate Israel and the US how to respect human rights. It’s an example of a totally healthy nation...

Post-Zionism wants Israel to turn into the "State for all citizens" since the only Jewish nation state has outlived itself. Then it would be a triumph of democracy. Indeed! In the end, the history of the Middle East is a permanent triumph of democracy. What would the Yazidis, Kurds, Druze, Christians in Iraq and Syria, homosexuals, Zoroastrians, and Baha'is in Iran say about democracy and human rights in their countries, when you are buried alive, hanging on cranes or raped by a hundred supporters of pluralism?

There is no doubt that the followers of messianic utopia will not hear any arguments of reasoning. They live according to Tertullian's famous formula, "It is certain because it is impossible". They will continue to support Obama, peace with Iran, Palestinian state and Democracy "in One Country" (Bukharin) - Israel.

Obviously, they will not change the world. As Goethe said: "If God had wanted me otherwise, he would have created me otherwise".

But supported by army of Jews – self-haters, like Soros, Chomsky, Richard Falk, Norman Finkelstein, Michael Sfard, Ilan Pappe, they are quite capable of destroying «Third Temple» and releasing the demons of hatred that will ricochet and destroy them.
