THE ARAB-ISRAELI WAR THROUGH THE LENS OF CONSCIOUSNESS

“We cannot solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them” ― Albert Einstein

I’ve started and stopped this essay many times. The programming inside my Jewish mind, my Brandeis-educated vernacular, and my holocaust DNA often prevents me from seeing the conflict clearly. Mainly it’s because there’s so much to say, and none of it is good. 

Growing up in the shadow of the Holocaust, as the child of two survivors, Israel is the holy grail. It is perceived to be the answer to thousands of years of persecution. The more I look at it, the more it seems like a set-up for the Jewish people. Here’s your Holy Land, now be our human shields while you fight our bloody oil wars. It was shocking to hear Gabor Mate, Canadian psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor himself, speak about his anguish regarding the plight of the Palestinians in this interview. That is not generally an acceptable position among Western Jews.  Are we allowed to feel empathy?  Without empathy, who are we? We are the worst versions of ourselves. Hasidic Jews spend their days arguing over the Talmud. They question everything that’s ever been written from morning till night. Shouldn’t we? 

It’s clear we need to dismantle our current global political system because it has become too inhuman for life on earth to survive it.  Perhaps we need a council of spiritual leaders, wise men and women, who are evolved enough to guide us into an era predicated on the consciousness of HEALING and high frequencies. Love. Peace. Forgiveness. Unity. Those words seem too airy fairy for most “responsible” and “educated” people. I disagree. We are being asked to take radical responsibility for our own role in what’s going on around us. 

The devastatingly sub-human nature of governments, all of whom are tyrannical (yes I said all) is center stage right now.   It is also a reflection of our choices. A normal person of any faith or persuasion would call for an immediate cease-fire and the end to murder from all sides. If for no other reason than to avoid near certain persecution in the future. Each minute that slides by with rockets and maniacal calls for turning Gaza into a parking lot, makes every Jewish person walking planet earth a target. It also makes the children in Gaza orphans and trauma victims who will never recover. 

Israel, with their obvious stand-down orders, allowed one of the most savage attacks on Israel in history to take place on October 7th, launching them into a scripted war (like all wars) in the Middle East.  It appears clear that Israel and Hamas are using their own people as human shields, to play out some pre-conceived drama that was planned years ago by a multitude of scummy global players. Netanyahu will probably play the patsy role, and resign. Someone has to take the fall. Might as well be him. That would be a win for the Israelis. 

This WAS Israel’s 9/11. But not for the reasons you and I were told it was. The bitter betrayal of a government who vowed to always protect its citizens reeks of the same fairy tale cover up that 9/11 still shamefully hides behind. The notion that Israel (the most powerful army in the world, with the most advanced surveillance technology) was taken off guard by terrorists in para-glides and a beat up tractor feels a bit like deja vu. Oh the histrionic tales of government outrage as they lace up their running shoes and bolt for the defense stocks. (LOCKHEED MARTIN is flying high in the market this week). Spare us your moral outrage.

“I served in the IDF 25 years ago in the intelligence forces.. there’s no way, in my view, that Israel did not know what’s coming…Something is very wrong here”

—Efrat Fenigson, Former IDF Soldier/Journalist

This clip of Efrat Fenigson Israeli journalist and former member of the IDF details the impossibility of a “surprise” attack. In her words “this war and every war is a horrible thing for everyone involved except for those who get rich from it right?” She goes on to say that she cannot understand why there was zero response to the border and fence breaching. It’s as if Israel suddenly forgot what their only job is. Until the truth is revealed, the victims won’t heal. For their sake, I pray for transparency.

“Something really bad happened and it had to have happened high up on the ranks” Shai Danon (Israeli Peace activist) laments. He describes in this interview the technology used to detect any movement near the border, “If there is movement there is automatic shooting. No questions asked” that is how Israeli defense works. But not this time?” 

“I’m saying this with great sadness. We’ve been betrayed. I don’t trust the army and I don’t trust the police force”

- Shai Danon

We are once again witnessing the unraveling of humanity. It happens in big waves every 75-80 years, and can only occur because our sense of humanness erodes every day, minute by minute. Every time a lie is told, humanity melts away. Western democracy as we knew it fell apart on 9/11 because the lies were too big to hold our naive ideas of liberty. It unraveled in a bigger more permanent way when martial law (lockdowns) went into effect in March 2020 in response to what many consider to be a bioweapon that was unleashed against the American people called SARS-COV-2.  

We, the sane ones, remain. We, the humans holding our truths up high, observe once again. The onus is now entirely on us to turn this around. So many writers and activists here on Substack are doing it. They get up every day and reflect back to us our true identity. We are children of God, and we do not murder other children. No we don’t. 

The Israeli government is bringing shame and danger to the Jewish people. Hamas is bringing shame and danger to the Palestinian people. Both governments need to be dismantled. The US government has been bringing Americans shame for 60 years, and they too need to be dismantled. End times are here and the fraudulent system needs to be ripped open at the seams.  Re-birth is upon us. It is also within us.

The Arab Israeli conflict is like the Rubik’s cube of politics. It’s clear you can spend your life studying the history, and the minutia of that war-torn Holy land, and never really know it at all.  

This is a clip of Moses Yousef (son of Hamas founder) railing against the people protesting in Western cities in support of Palestine. He reminds them they are clueless about this conflict. This seems a shocking stance for a Palestinian but his story of being captured by the IDF and becoming an Israeli spy reminds me that nothing is what it seems. 

WHAT IS THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF SICK?

The two warring factions right now can be characterized by "THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF SICK" and "THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF HEALING." Yes, I have the luxury of being an armchair philosopher while real people die in the streets but sane thoughts during a vicious spiritual war can’t hurt. 

The blood from the non-stop killing on all sides of the border in Israel flows into the Mediterranean Sea, and before long, the unsuspecting peace-loving surfer in Mexico finds himself swimming in it. He doesn't know why but feels he is being drawn under by an evil rip tide. We are all connected through the earth and the water, and we do have a common enemy.  Do you know who that enemy is? 

I feel it when I’m in the bank. It's the cold rush of air that silently warns us as we walk through the thick steel doors. Does your skin crawl when you pay taxes; mine does. There is a chilly darkness that envelops the unsuspecting churchgoer from time to time. Something grim lives in fake places of worship. It also curls up inside the temples where devoted congregants were thrown out on high holy days for not wearing a “mask.” Brainwashing is the key component of “THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF SICK” and it often lurks in places where people go to be vulnerable.  

In a schoolroom?

YES.

In the hospital?

DEFINITELY

You might feel it as soon as the doctor walks into the examining room. It's the vibration of abuse, and it makes you want to run. People often carry it in their energy field without being aware. It is a dissonant frequency that is harsh on the ears and the soul. It's the frequency of SICK. That is the true enemy. All governments operate on the frequency of SICK at the highest levels. 

The Temple gets attacked.

We mourn the dead.

Rinse and Repeat.

Children get shot.

We mourn the dead.

Rinse and Repeat.

Mysterious wildfires erupt.

We mourn the dead.

Rinse and Repeat.

The people get a baffling disease.

We mourn the dead.

Rinse and Repeat. 

These tragic events will repeat until the collective chooses something different. We are in a holding pattern; anxiously waiting for those in positions of power — the people who consistently do the wrong thing to suddenly wake up and do the right thing. There is genuine insanity in this line of thinking.

“They” bang the drum incessantly, demanding we CHOOSE A SIDE.

I choose the Consciousness of Healing. I choose sanity.
