New piece on A Jewish Voice: Western commentary on Israel-Palestine keeps getting it wrong — not for lack of moral seriousness, but because it applies rational-actor frameworks to actors operating in an eschatological register.
I write about what religious extremism actually feels like from the inside, Scott Atran's Devoted Actor research, and how this conflict is being theologized from both sides.

@statsguy By rights, the #uk should make noise about how the US administration, which claims to be "Christian", wholeheartedly believes they are initiating this war to bring about biblical Armageddon.
Is in lockstep with Israel which orchestrated #iran war and genocide in Gaza in order to bring about Greater Israel, coming of their Messiah, aim to build the 3rd temple, usher in End Times.
This is #religiousextremism to the point of insanity by US-Israel.
How many Brits are apocalypticists? 0?

“If your god loves the way you hate, then expect the same love back. A god shaped by hate is no god — only a mirror of extremism.”
Faith must empower, not enslave. Leadership must serve, not dominate.
