The article "Sobre el nacional-judaísmo – Rafael Poch de Feliu" presents a critical analysis of the relationship between Zionism and Judaism, arguing that Israel's actions are not a deviation from Jewish morality but rather a manifestation of European ethnic nationalism. The author, Yakov Rabkin, a professor emeritus of History from the University of Montreal, challenges the common perception that Israel violates Jewish ethical principles. Instead, he asserts that the founders of Israel, primarily from the Russian Empire, deliberately rejected Jewish morality and tradition to create a new society for a new type of Jew: strong, fearless, and free from religious and moral constraints. David Ben-Gurion, Israel's first prime minister, explicitly stated that the Zionist movement was revolutionary, a rebellion against centuries of Jewish tradition. The article cites Ben-Gurion's admiration for Lenin and the October Revolution, as well as his view of Judaism as a historical burden. Vladimir Jabotinsky, a key Zionist figure, similarly argued that victims of persecution should not expect moral restraint from their oppressors, citing the biblical injunction against oppressing foreigners as outdated. The author notes that the current Israeli government, including figures like Bezalel Smotrich, continues this ideology, with the nationalist Judaism movement (dati-leumi) providing religious justification for actions against Palestinians. The article also references historical parallels, comparing Israeli nationalists to radical European nationalists of the early 20th century who participated in pogroms and genocide. The author concludes that Israel should be viewed not as a deviation from Jewish morality but as the embodiment of European ethnic nationalism, and only by recognizing this can Israel's exceptional impunity be ended. The article is based on academic research and historical analysis, drawing from sources such as the works of Yeshayahu Leibovich and Eli Barnavi, and references the author's own publications on Jewish opposition to Zionism.
