520 |a Israel is simultaneously a post-colonial political entity and a colonial state. This paradox stems from the complex realities that have shaped its creation. While Zionism is a result of the nineteenth-century national emancipation movements, Israel is also a state born of out the ashes of the death camps, rooting Israeli Jewish identity in a psychology of victimhood, characteristic of post-colonial states. Conversely, Jewish settlement spoiled the Palestinians of their land. Thus, Israel became a colonial state. Undoubtedly, these two realities clash. How has Jewish religious thinking shaped the ideological stands that define this paradoxical reality of Israel? This paper aims at exploring the religious arguments advocated by Israeli Jews, heirs of the double faceted foundations of the state. It also attempts at formulating a possible alternative theological perspective that could infuse the political reality of the state of Israel.
