state of israel, n.All

The State of Israel (n.) brings ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the Messiah no closer by being a State, but only because its inhabitants try to resist the temptations of politics.

The State of Israel (n.) annuls ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the hypocrisy of those who judge History from outside while benefiting from it: denying reason to reality is permissible only if one confronts History's dangers.
