…Maariv this morning couldn’t help but cover the latest Wikileaks dump of diplomatic cables in which US Ambassador James Cunningham in Tel-Aviv reported back home on the Associate Director of the New Israel Fund in Israel, Hedva Radovanitz, telling him, in regard to future Knesset legislation on transparency in the matter of NGO funding, that she believed Israel would eventually, after a hundred years, become a majority Arab state and really disappear as a Jewish state but that was okay because it would be a more democratic state.

And there you have it. This is the New Israel Fund. This is what they stand for. You know the idea that today’s liberal American, non-observant Jew thinks Judaism and the platform of the Democratic Party are one and the same? Well, here is that idea incarnate. Here is a Jewess for whom democracy trumps Judaism as her ideal ideology.

Everything I know of the New Israel Fund tells me that its directors are hardcore assimilationists for whom Jewishness should be indistinguishable for other Enlightened Gentile cultures and societies. Multiculturalism trumps the particularity of Jews wishing to preserve their unique identity: a national identity rooted in a metaphysical belief.

Other peoples define their nationality by their real estate, by their cuisine, by their language. And when someone moves away and forgets the language and eats like the nation he lives in, he has lost his earlier national identity and joins the other national group.

But not the Jews. Jewish identity is above all the Torah, above even the Land. Most of Jewish history has been spent outside the Land. The Torah was given outside the land, and then carried around from encampment to encampment, over 40 years, 42 different camp sites, kind of a rehearsal (I imagine it to have been) for the great Diaspora when all the Jew had of their national identity was their Book and its metaphysic basis which they carried from country to country.

This exposure of the New Israel Fund was delightful. We found that this very person is in charge here of doling out 11 million dollars a year to 350 NGOs the overwhelming majority of them I’ll bet anti-Jew in outlook is prepared to see Israel disappear.

For sure the New Israel Fund funds some pro-Israel efforts, but that is just camouflage. The Fund really funds hundreds of anti-Israel outfits, and here is their local fund distributor, a Jewess, dreaming of a time when Jewish Israel disappears.

Yuk…
