The strange phenomenon of Jews fighting… other Jews

The great struggle of our time – against your cousin from Bnei Brak.

Once upon a time, Jews fought for their survival.
Today, they fight for the right to blame themselves.
And preferably while wearing a clever English slogan T-shirt at a protest in Kaplan or Rothschild Boulevard.

Welcome to “Jews Against the Occupation” – the movement where Jews, often sporting hipster beards and bead bracelets with a touch of “authentic Judaica,” battle the Zionist enterprise as if it were a neo-colonial East German outpost.

And no, they’re not just “against.”
They’re “against, out of love.”
Love for the Palestinian people. Love for pluralism. Love for… well, everything but their own people.

Who are these Jews – and why do they all look like anthropology majors?

The “Jews Against the Occupation” crowd is a small but very loud group of activists — essentially the Jewish version of what might be called “a support group for people allergic to themselves.”

They draw inspiration from Freud, Marx, and the dean of their humanities faculty, and they genuinely believe that Jewish redemption lies through a process of self-examination, national scolding, and the removal of every Zionist symbol that reminds them of a grandpa in a bucket hat.

They sit on UN committees, take selfies with former terrorists, and quote Hanoch Levin while refusing to identify themselves at an IDF checkpoint.

Every morning they wake up and ask:
“Have I done enough today to prove I’m one of the good Jews?”

“But they’re Jews!” – the left’s favorite argument

Whenever someone on the right points out how absurd these protests are, the immediate retort comes:
“But they’re Jews themselves! How can you call them antisemitic?”

Simple.
A man can theoretically spit in his own face.
Being Jewish is an ethnicity; self-hatred is a political hobby.

And what could be more poetic than an organization that screams “IDF murderers!” — then insists they’re only doing it to “save the true soul of Zionism,” which, conveniently, never actually existed.

Guilt culture marinated in politics

Let’s be honest — the “Jew Against the Occupation” is the ultimate product of a Western progressive education where:

• The occupation is always your fault.

• Violence is always a “natural response.”

• Borders are colonial.

• And your own people? Mostly a historical inconvenience.

In this worldview, Jews living in Hebron are “extremist settlers,” while Palestinians throwing concrete blocks at them are “traumatized post-colonial youth.”

It’s a hard mindset to crack — until you realize they simply see themselves as guests in their own country.
Not pleasant guests, mind you. More like the ones who bring terrible wine to dinner and complain that the wallpaper feels fascist.

Sheikh Jarrah: a democratic carnival – as long as it’s against you

To understand the heart of the phenomenon, visit Sheikh Jarrah on a Friday.
A small street, a big protest, and plenty of signs explaining why you are the problem.

You’ll see banners like:
“Eviction = War Crime”
“End the Occupation”
“Zionism is Racism” (in Hebrew and French)
And, of course, heart-shaped balloons — because aesthetics matter.

And there, under the minaret’s shadow, you’ll find Danny from Kfar Warburg, a philosophy graduate with glowing eyes, telling a Scandinavian journalist:
“We’re here to resist oppression, even if we’re part of it. It’s not easy, but someone has to take responsibility.”

Sure, Danny. You’re basically Gandhi — just with SPF 50 and orthopedic sandals.

But why do they really do it?

Truthfully, the reasons vary.
Some genuinely believe they’re saving Israel from itself.
Others act out of guilt, academic pressure, or a deep need to feel like “the enlightened exception among their people.”

Being a Jew against the occupation is like being a vegan at a barbecue lecturing everyone about ethics — it’s a heady mix of moral superiority, missionary zeal, and a secret craving to be hated just a little.

And yes — there’s money, too. The New Israel Fund isn’t exactly known for penny-pinching.

So what do we do with them?

The worst thing you can do with “Jews Against the Occupation” is take them seriously.
At the end of the day, they’re just a group of people who honestly believe that if we surrender enough — we’ll win.
If we take down the flags — peace will come.
If we give up Hebron — we’ll get a hug.
If we stop fighting — they’ll stop shooting.

They’ve never understood that to fight for peace, you must first believe you deserve to be here.
Not as a guest. Not as a tourist. Not as an eternal apologist.
As a people — with history, rights, and the memory of what it means to have no home at all.

Jews against the occupation — and mostly, against themselves

So yes, they’re Jews.
And yes, they’re against the occupation.
But in truth, their greatest struggle is against everything that defines Judaism itself:
– A people.
– An identity.
– A homeland.
– A backbone.

Whether out of clean conscience or chronic self-doubt, the result is the same:
They strengthen our enemies, weaken our faith, and create the illusion of internal dissent — when in reality, they’re just a vocal minority desperate for global approval.

Because when terrorists burst into your home, they don’t ask if you’re “against the occupation.”
They just ask if you’re Jewish.

And in that moment, all the signs, slogans, and heart-shaped balloons —
evaporate.
Like ideology dissolving in the acid of reality.
With plenty of blood.
And very few balloons left.
