Summary
In this important message, Avi Abelow exposes the deeper story behind the recent controversy surrounding an IDF soldier punished for wearing a “Mashiach” patch on his uniform. Was this really about military regulations and uniform policy or does it reveal a much larger battle over the Jewish identity and future direction of the State of Israel?As Jew-hating antisemitism and anti-Israel propaganda explode around the world, including shocking modern blood libels in major international media outlets, something very different is happening inside Israel itself. A new generation of proud Jewish Israelis is rising. Young soldiers are openly embracing Jewish identity, Jewish destiny, and the spiritual mission of the Jewish people in our ancestral homeland. Across Israel today, young people wave Temple flags, wear shirts depicting a rebuilt Temple in Jerusalem, and proudly display Mashiach patches as symbols of Jewish pride and redemption.
