As the West dies, Israel’s future lies with rising Asia

By Robert Besser

Since its founding, Israel believed it could develop alliances with western countries because we shared the ancient values of our Judeo-Christian heritage. We also believed such alliances were natural joinings, since we Jews had much in common with Western Civilization.

But the 77-year history of Israel’s diplomatic alliances with the West appears to be ending, and increasingly we see that we have disturbingly little in common with the dying West.

Indeed, today’s totalitarian leftist and progressive ideas prevalent in the West have resulted in an undiluted hatred of Israel and the Jews.

For Israel is everything the western left hates. We are nationalistic, we are patriotic, we believe in the distinctiveness of our culture, we revel in our history, we are religious, we celebrate marriage and having children, and we believe in serving our country in uniform.

The West, however, no longer believes in any of these foundational virtues. In conversations with today’s young adults in the West, they repeat their mantra about seeking “quality of life,” rather than assuming the responsibilities of both adulthood and nationhood.

And because the long history of the Jews always repeats itself, the West hates the religion of Judaism for the same reason so many empires and dictators did. Which is because we will never bow down before the West’s leftist religion, this new paganism, but instead cling to our 3,500 year old faith.

In his frustration, the Russian butcher Joseph Stalin said this about the Jews: “I can’t swallow them, I can’t spit them out….They are the only group that is completely unassimilable.”

Still, Israel must have alliances with other nations, as this is crucial to the survival of countries, particularly small ones.

The question is, with what countries should Israel join?

For this brief moment, many countries in Eastern Europe are seeking deeper relations with Israel, motivated by their fears of being overrun by Vladimir Putin’s Russia. However, when the 72 year-old Putin is gone from the scene, Russia’s next dictator might work to eliminate the tensions with its border countries, which will quickly dilute their attraction to Israel.

And I have never met an Israeli who believed peace with any Arab Moslem country is anything but temporary, and exclusively based upon the money the Arabs can make through signing treaties with Israel.

So, with what countries can Israel make sincere, substantial and long lasting alliances?

Simply put, the countries that need Israel, and we need them, are…
