Today is the holiday of Purim.
And it is no accident that Benjamin Netanyahu referenced this Jewish
holiday when delivering his powerful address to the U.S. Senate in his
unsuccessful bid to curb Obama’s embrace of a nuclear Iran.
Purim is an old ( 5th century B.C.E.) but agonizingly familiar
story: A Jew-hater named Haman hatches a plan to annihilate the Jewish
people in the ancient kingdom of Persia.
That Genocide Thing. Again.
Most of the Jews in this multicultural Persian kingdom have been
enlightened to the point where they enthusiastically attend royal feasts
and gorge themselves off the golden plates and cups looted from the
holy Jewish Temple in Jerusalem.
These court Jews have evolved past that old, tired Judaism.
They’re all new-agey, progressive. They know with arrogant certainty
that Jewish history has moved beyond the old paradigms. It’s kumbaya
time, Persian style.
