Where I most part ways with Ehud is in his stark, somewhat disturbing conclusion:

There is only one, and that is that the Jews must immigrate to Israel, the one and only true safe haven for Jews. If they leave the US under duress, then decent Gentiles must do all in their power to mitigate their hardships and suffering. For example, by paying fair prices for homes and businesses left behind. Helping the Jews pack their belongings. Subsidizing Jews of little means. Israel can absorb them all, even on short notice. At this stage decent Gentiles will be able to hold off the Antisemites by convincing them that they have won, and that soon America will be rid of her Jews, so they do not need to kill them. Hallelujah! Happy days!

This whole essay by David...how wonderful! Pleading the case for Jews to remain in the Diaspora. In this he takes a stand as a Righteous Gentile. I can only salute him. He will be disappointed in this wish, because all Jews are on their way to Israel whether they know it or not. This is the destiny of the Jewish people and is moving swiftly now.

And besides, this is very much worth saying: moving to Israel will not protect you from antisemitism at all.

Jews in the Land of Israel, connected to the God of Israel, are protected. It is a divine promise. This Arab hatred of Jews is coming to an end. It will end quickly and totally and be forgotten. We are on the cusp of a middle eastern golden age. Wait and see.
