Sechster Nahostkrieg

[Nightwatch]

Zu Rosch Haschana - dem jüdischen Neujahrsfest. das heute mit dem Sonnenuntergang beginnt und mit Einbruch der Dunkelheit am 24. September endet, hätte ich den jüdischen Bewohnern Israels etwas besseres gewünscht, als die selbst verursachte zunehmende Isolierung in der Völkergemeinschaft.
Aber vielleicht helfen die folgenden 10 Bußtage ja etwas ...

So in etwa?

What would happen if, mid-performance at Madison Square Garden, a pop star began asking God to forgive them and the audience for their sins? I think it’s fair to say that a few people in the crowd would be confused, to say the least.

In Israel, however, Judaism is infused in the national culture — even for those who wouldn’t identify as religious in the traditional sense of the word.

Few moments have captured this cultural intertwining as beautifully as a recent Osher Cohen concert. Cohen, who does not wear a yarmulke, was singing one of his breakup songs — par for the course for a pop star.

And then, without warning, he broke into Adon HaSelichot (Master of Forgiveness) a liturgical poem sung in the lead up to the Jewish New Year, which praises God’s many aspects while asking for forgiveness for our sins.

And how did the audience, which was by no means a religious crowd, respond? They sang along with Cohen as if it was one of his hit songs.

And in that moment, it wasn’t just a concert — it was a reminder of what makes Israel unique: a place where tradition and modern life blend so seamlessly that even a centuries-old prayer can turn into a pop song loved by the religious and secular alike.

Nach Meinung der Macrons, Starmers und Carneys dieser Welt steht die Klagemauer übrigens in diesem Fiktivgebilde Palästina. Gott sei Dank sind die Zeit in denen irgendwelche traurigen Gestalten das Schicksal des jüdischen Volkes diktieren konnten vorbei.
