Religious Zionism's "Phantom Limb" Syndrome: A Political Identity Crisis

Segments of the Religious Zionist public are experiencing a political identity crisis, struggling to reconcile their historical alliance with the left, which has undergone a significant ideological transformation. This confusion, exacerbated by effective propaganda, leads to difficulties in voting choices during critical elections. The article traces this issue from the founding Zionist generation through the Yom Kippur War and the rise of secular anti-Zionist ideologies, contrasting it with the emergence of a new, confident Religious Zionist leadership. It urges voters to make pragmatic choices, framing the current election as a stark choice between the right and Palestinian interests.
