Israel Shahak predicted this.. I suppose from your POV it really is like how the most insufferable resistance liberals turned out to be 100% correct about Trump by his 2nd term.

Good to know how the far right religious zionists are corrupting Judaism. We've been saying that for years!

I absolutely love how you dump a massive bucket of ice-cold water on anyone who may have felt a bit of hope and inspiration from those two songs. And in the most British way possible as well.

I think, now that I have learned the history of the Al Tira song that I will never sing it again, and protest whenever I hear it. The Mi Shemaamin song, I actually like, and I still find the lyrics meaningful. I guess I will be too cringed out to play it anymore, especially if this becomes associated with Ben Gvirs election campaign, as it seems destined to do.

Surprisingly I have quite a bit of sympathy for your viewpoint, but I think you pushed the envelope too far which is one of your big problems in your writing. You just chucked in Aryeh Deri for no good reason, and confused your message. Now this is not me being a holy chareidi and jumping up to defending a dedicated and tireless askan blah, blah blah. Far from that, but Deri, for all the faults he may possess is clearly a million times better then the empty headed arsim you just eviscerated.
