I just want to point out an interesting phenomenon in Israeli Society right now if anyone suggests anything that's beyond the conventional wisdom or anything beyond the myopic vision of the Israeli establishment immediately he's labeled as a delusional Messianic that's what he's called now the new curse word in Israel is you you're just delusional and I'm think like that's really interesting that that's happening now like oh this really wasn't about um the judicial reform or legal activism or even a Palestinian State like it's finally rising up to the surface the actual complication here in the state of Israel because the founding fathers of the modern state of Israel they just wanted a night shelter they wanted a safe haven for the Jews and all the Sun comes October 7th and we realize the foundations of the greatest Jewish Enterprise in 2,000 years was built on a false Foundation but what is a foundation that can actually hold the light that we are receiving now what is that Foundation it's the dream that our fathers had and that our ancestors had and we're saying we haven't given up on that dream we're not saying it's not enough to just have peace now no Israel can be the safest country in the world the most prosperous country in the world this can be an amazing country I'm not giving up on that dream and if giving up on that dream is calling me a delusional Messianic then we should be honored to be guilty of that charge
