Biblical Primitivism and Religious Extremism in Israeli Perspectives

Delving into the deeply religious and biblical perspectives of certain Jewish communities in Israel, this chapter examines the Talmud and interpretations of the Bible, particularly focusing on the conquest of Canaan as detailed in Deuteronomy and the Book of Joshua. It highlights the disturbing trend of advocating for violence against Palestinians based on literal interpretation of religious texts, the fear of criticizing Israel labeled as anti-Semitic, and the complex comparison of violence interpretations in Islam, the Bible, and the Talmud.
