Israelis’ Psychology Difficulties
defthaa
As a Holocaust survivor, Israelis have many issues regarding the capability to address aftermath the horrific tragedy in Europe. Ego compounding is the biggest one of the conflicts which has been preventing them to look back and turning their perspective towards Palestinians suffer. Matter of fact, Israel’s civilians’ ego has been ingraining and rooting in themselves way before the establishment of the State of Israel. It is difficult for Israelis to embark the empathies to another human-beings outside Jews or Israelis category because their ego has been highly built up. Furthermore, they have been made the ego way more complicated to even start separating between reality and imagination. Israelis knew domino effect will occur if they are realizing the same value of other ethnics or religions. The foundation of their arguments will collapse entirely if they could find themselves in Palestinian shoes as a victim of another Holocaust. Nevertheless, the establishment of their ego is based on propaganda whereby they need lie after lies in order maintain their previous wall of falsehood. Beside of that, I personally belief regarding the cure of ego compounding is looking on the other side of fence. Unfortunately, Israelis have not even had the willingness to see what happen inside the fence of Gaza and West Bank’s wall. However, the cycle breaker of ego compounding can and only be devastated by the individual itself because they cannot capable to see their relatives’ truth and they will assume the correlation does not meet Zionism’s pragmatic stage. Especially if their family members have inherent bond and emotional engagement with Zionism. Nonetheless, spreading generational traumas by telling stories regarding the outside world’s view towards Jews can be one of the reasons Israelis have been compounding their ego and tied it tightly with emotional connection.
Great grandparents’ stories have been top priority nor priceless heritages for their descendants especially as a survivor of frightening historic event. Israelis’ ascendants have been subconsciously planting constant fear to their children in order to preserving Zionism ideology by telling them unpleasant narratives. Furthermore, the memories from the past are still brought up by Israel’s civilians in order to justify massive murder towards non-Jew people because they were afraid one day those people will annihilate Jews entirely. However, the way Israelis see and perceive the world is totally different in compare to normal person. Israelis scared and imagined about outside world will turn against them because of their faith. The implication of generational trauma among Israel society is overreaction such as perceiving Free Palestine rally as a threat for “chosen” people because they thought people in Palestine rally want total cleanse for Jews in general. Israelis’ perception is not correlate with the reality since people view Israel as an embodiment of destruction. It is not as simple as their religion is the top reason why majority of people abhor towards Israelis right now. Instead, it was because the damage has been causing since the first establishment of Israel by Zionism more incomprehensible to even compete with Nazi. Nevertheless, Israelis and their parents are living in the contrast circumstances but with the same state of mind; Thereby, the previous old-fashioned point of views should not have been brought in order to solve current issues since it was already irrelevant. Nonetheless, Israelis are presently living in the past as a result of constant indoctrination from their parents’ reality. Despite Israelis are breathing the same air from the age of Holocaust, their parents’ self-defense mechanism was also intentionally passed down through generations.
Israelis are still activating their own defense mechanism by abusing antisemitism term as one of the weapons in order to control somebody’s voices. Furthermore, Israelis are need to convincing themselves regarding the criticizes Israel got through attack and mute people who are against the idea of Zionism as a shape of self-defense. Insecurity has become virus among Israeli society as a result of continuous self-preservation. For instance, Israel’s civilians need to bring heavy gun inside of their own country in order to avoid Hamas surprise strike. In addition, Israel’s folks are not merely carrying their gun near Gaza strips, but illegal settlements take their firearms’ whilst walking with their children in West Bank as well. On the other hand, Israel has Holocaust Museum for cheering or motivating Israelis when their self-defenses are reaching lower level. Furthermore, the museum establishment could be sustaining and frequently triggering Israelis traumas in order to manipulate the dynamics of fear they have. Consequently, self-defense has been providing comfortability for Israelis to stay in the same state of emotion.
It is easy for Zionist to keep with their parents’ belief because of the comfortability they have been created since their youth. In fact, they just need to stay in the same position as their relatives nor prevent themselves and others to try move one step ahead towards improvement path. As a representation, Israelis for now are settling inside of bubble which made them in vulnerable circumstances. Moreover, the bubble itself has been designed carefully by their ancestors due to cease further questions about the cruelty of Zionism. The impact of comfortability living inside of the bubble is the risen of antisemitism slogan. The role of antisemitic is meant to be iron dome which can silent somebody who was trying to poke their bubble’s. In spite of Israel’s folks never taking step outside their cozy zone, the only thing Israelis have stepped outside their comfortability is downgrading themselves from the victim of Holocaust to perpetrator of another Holocaust as a shape of their own projection.
All accusations have been thrown towards Hamas are the embodiment of Israel’s projection. Back in 2023, Israel has alleged Hamas for sexual harassing women during October 7 War although legit evidence never showed to the public, yet Israel is the same one who was allowing IDF to rape Palestinian detainees. Moreover, Israelis were giving permit to IDF in order to annihilate Palestine because they were believed Palestinians will murder Jews if Israel’s troops are not killing them first. In the reality, Israel is also the one who was initiating massive murder and displacement for indigenous people in 1948. Beside of that, projection has turned Israelis from victims to bullies. German or Nazi has successfully transferred the same values but viler than Hitler era such as apartheid, genocide, stealing properties, discrimination, ethnic cleanse, and so on. In other words, Israelis have been injected with bullies’ infection and diagnosed with bully syndrome. The way Israelis heal themselves is more likely through projection because they will feel relief from suffer and miserable state.
Israelis’ ancestors and descendants have been gone through horrible world event, but it cannot be a validation for them to causing another Holocaust. Israel’s civilians have been built their ego from the first establishment of the State of Israel till this day in order to maintain the idea of Zionism. Moreover, their ego comes out as a form of generational traumas from their parents’ lifetime experience as Holocaust survivors. Israelis’ parents are also subconsciously injecting generational traumas whilst simultaneously planting their own self-defense mechanism towards their offspring’s. Israel’s folks currently have been being hunted by the fear of annihilation of Jews; Thereby, self-defense talking point appears in order to keep silencing any critics towards Zionism such as abusing antisemitic label. However, Zionists are already felt comfortable with their believes because they have been sticking with Zionism since youth. In addition, emotional engagement with Zionism through their parents’ is influencing them way further. Nevertheless, due to sustain the comfortability they had, Israelis need to project their negative behaviors to other ethnics or religions such as accusing rape towards Hamas even though Israel’s citizens were the one who supported IDF soldiers to rape Palestinians detainees. The essential question for Zionist recently is, until when Israelis are playing with hypocrisy and sustaining Holocaust memory.
