In your OP you mention archetypes and possession and an entity (implied evil) that persists and displays itself again and again through thousands of years. The cauldron in which this is precipitated is a mix of drugs, psychosis and Godlessness or as the archetype: anti-God. Iran is not Godless. Israel is not Godless. From a New Testament perspective, mine, the Old Testament God is harsh and exacting and the God of Islam is strict and suffocating. It doesn't make any of us wrong and certainly doesn't make any of us villians.
The governments today mixing this cauldron and "mak[ing] a place for things and things will come," (Gremlins II) are the U.S. (waterboarding and pain drug hypnosis), Russia (the Siberian gulag) and China (the Manchurian candidate.) These techniques actively create a place for the archetype of the Amalek to manifest. That is to say, our tax dollars at work.
If the Amalekites existed before the Judeo Christian God created Abraham, then can we assume they are not thought to be created by Abraham's God or the scriptures would read God of Abraham... and the Amalekites. It also mentions Amalek may have been taller than normal, a part of their name means "tall."
a member of the Israeli Knesset indicated in 2003 that Jewish children in Israel were being taught in religious schools that Palestinians were Amalek, and that therefore total genocide was a religious obligation
You like telling me theyre sufferring from a psychosis, dont you?

Be careful that the hatred you say you oppose is not countered with hatred of your own. Thats what happened to Stalin. He opposed hatred so much, that he became...hatred.

Please. Im saying please because id like you and everyone else to get a superior understanding of the dynamics of the Jewish people. The leftist, secular Jews, are regarded as heretics by religious Jews; not because they want Israel (which by definition is a belief and maxim of Judaism) but because theyve betrayed the values and morality of Judaism.

According to tradition, there are new Amalekites in every epoch. Last epoch it was Nazi Germany. This epoch it is the Hamas/Hezbollah faction. Thats what some Jews secretly believe. Palestinians on the other hand, have their own ancient beliefs about the Jews. Thats why its not likely that the MidEast conflict will be resolved anytime soon.

Thanks for your contribution. "Exterminate all Amalek" certainly produces bad karma. However, my understanding is that most religious Jews dont see it this way. They say that they can be safe from Amalekites not by exterminating them, but by being more devoted to their Religion. Those are the ones with a more friendly attitude.edit on 7-6-2011 by Skyfloating because: (no reason given)
Didnt the leftist/atheist Jews become so because they were traumatized by the discrimination experienced under Hitler and said "Never again will we dare claim we are the chosen ones. Lets push this equality thing from now on" or some such idea?

I would take that with a grain of salt.
But even if it is something taught...Think about it.
Palestinians in Gaza are taught MUCH WORSE.
I recently asked one of his advisers to gauge for me the depth of Mr. Netanyahu’s anxiety about Iran. His answer: “Think Amalek.”
But the story of Amalek is an unfortunate one for Netanyahu. It is unfortunate because the bulk of the literature in the Jewish scriptures points to massive Jewish over-reaction to the Amalekites - to the point of religiously commanded genocide. In fact, the existential threat in legend is from the Israelites against the Amalekites, not the other way round.www.theatlantic.com...
