Understanding Jewish and Israeli Identities

Many people don't know the difference between Hebrew, Jewish, Israeli,

and Zionist,

and confusing them is one of the world's biggest identity

misconceptions.

First, Hebrew. It referred to the descendants of Abraham,

the ancient Semitic

people of the Middle East. This is a historical and ethnic term.

Hebrew is the official language of Israel, revived in the 19th century after nearly

1,700 years of being used only in prayer and scripture.

Second, Jewish. This is an ethno-religious identity.

You can be Jewish by religion, practicing Judaism,

or you can be Jewish by

ancestry, regardless of whether you believe it

or not.

And here is what shocks most people.

There are Black, Ethiopian, Indian, and Chinese Jews. Third, Israeli.

This is a nationality, a citizen of the state of Israel.

And here is the fact that surprises most people.

20% of Israeli citizens are Arab, Muslim, Christian, and Druze Arabs.

Fourth, Zionist. Zionism is a political ideology.

It emerged in 1890s in Europe as a movement that Jewish people,

after centuries of

persecution, deserve their own homeland.

1890s, that's about the time the Rothschilds

started to fund

settlements in Palestine, by the way.

Here's what makes this complicated.

Not all Jews are Zionists, and not all Zionists are Jewish.

We need to be clear on who we need to hold accountable in this world,

and the reality is this. The people that are in power are not really

Jews. They've hijacked the Jewish religion.

They hide behind all religions, not just the Jewish religion.

'Cause you can be a Christian Zionist, you can be a Catholic Zionist,

you can be a

Buddhist Zionist. It doesn't matter your religion.

What matters is that they have control over all of these regions.

They control Israel. They control the United States.

They control all of these countries.

Jesus called them out in the Bible directly, saying,

"Beware of those who claim

to be Jews but aren't Jews, but are in fact a part of the synagogue of

Satan." What we're really seeing is the exposure of these people that

are part of

the synagogue of Satan, and now what we're seeing

is a lot of Jewish people and a

lot of Israelis waking up to the fact that their government doesn't have their

best

interest in mind, and that their religious leaders really don't

have their best

interest in mind.
