Since 1967, Israel has not won a single war.<\/h2>\n 50 years ago Israel barely survived the October \u201973, Yom Kippur War.<\/em><\/p>\n Over the past five decades the only victors in the endless military operations, skirmishes, conflicts, bombings, rockets, missiles, suicide missions, hijackings, kidnappings, targeted assassinations and murders between Israel and Hamas, Hezbollah, and other terrorists, are the international public relations condemnation of Israel and snowballing global antisemitism.<\/p>\n

For almost 30 years, Netanyahu has successfully brainwashed (most) Israelis into believing the only way to thrive financially and survive militarily is by keeping him in power.<\/strong><\/h2>\n His masterful manipulation through lies, illusions and broken promises results in the abusive control of Israel\u2019s new recruits, young soldiers, border police and security services.<\/p>\n Overt or cleverly disguised, Netanyahu\u2019s anti-Arab policies call to suppress, oppress, injure, spill the blood of Arab Israelis and shoot to kill Palestinians living in the West Bank. A genius at whipping up fear and anger, Bibi\u2019s final solution is to cleanse East Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria of all Christians and Muslims.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n "" In the occupied West Bank territory near Nablus, Israeli soldiers watch Jewish criminals from the Yitzhar settlement\u00a0<\/em>throw rocks and stones at Palestinian farmers.

Born in Jersey City, growing up two hours north of New York City the heart of the 'Borscht Belt,' from the age of eight I received a wonderful, intense education in the world of music, theatre, art, ballet and creative writing. My first spiritual mentor was the larger-than-life, Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach who, with his passion and songs instilled in me the joy of loving God. My second spiritual mentor is the mystical, magical Siddha Master, Jivanmukta Swami Ganapati. He has been my guide, my teacher, my focus for 33 years. Parallel to my spiritual journey, my art (with great amusement) often intersects with my worldly life. While living in London, employed by the budding Walker Books Children's Book Publishing Company, my watercolors were invited to over a dozen competitions and two solo exhibitions. Having transitioned to the world of digital art, I created my techniques that resemble watercolor subtlety. Between 2021-2022 a selection of my digital paintings participated in 60 international exhibitions, competitions and publications \u2013 recipient of 39 awards and citations.

Born in Jersey City, growing up two hours north of New York City the heart of the 'Borscht Belt,' from the age of eight I received a wonderful, intense education in the world of music, theatre, art, ballet and creative writing. My first spiritual mentor was the larger-than-life, Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach who, with his passion and songs instilled in me the joy of loving God. My second spiritual mentor is the mystical, magical Siddha Master, Jivanmukta Swami Ganapati. He has been my guide, my teacher, my focus for 33 years. Parallel to my spiritual journey, my art (with great amusement) often intersects with my worldly life. While living in London, employed by the budding Walker Books Children's Book Publishing Company, my watercolors were invited to over a dozen competitions and two solo exhibitions. Having transitioned to the world of digital art, I created my techniques that resemble watercolor subtlety. Between 2021-2022 a selection of my digital paintings participated in 60 international exhibitions, competitions and publications \u2013 recipient of 39 awards and citations. A citizen of Israel for over 4 decades, I was a volunteer on Kibbutz Hulda, founding member of Kibbutz Samar, served in the IDF\/NAHAL, and I'm the former Festival Coordinator\/Guest Hospitality for the Jerusalem Film Festival & Cinematheque.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/judithlungen9238\/","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/judithlungen9238","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/judith-lungen-9367941b9\/"],"url":"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/thecommonalityofhumanity\/author\/jlungen\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/thecommonalityofhumanity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1925","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/thecommonalityofhumanity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/thecommonalityofhumanity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/thecommonalityofhumanity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4896"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/thecommonalityofhumanity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1925"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/thecommonalityofhumanity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1925\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/thecommonalityofhumanity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2198"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/thecommonalityofhumanity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1925"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/thecommonalityofhumanity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1925"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/thecommonalityofhumanity\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1925"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
