Oh I am fully aware of the US Right Wing Accelerationist's eschatologically opportunistic attitude towards Jews, and how they so easily reconcile their support for the right-wing Israeli government with their support for Trump's anti-semitic words, beliefs, behavior, policies, advisors, supporters, friends, thanksgiving dinner guests, and all those "very fine people on both sides".
Eschatologically Opportunistic: Relates to the belief in using current events and people, in this case, Jews, to hasten the end times or Armageddon.
Utilitarian: Reflects the view of seeing Jews as a means to an end rather than as individuals with their own intrinsic value.
Instrumental: Suggests the idea of using Jews as tools to achieve a specific prophecy or outcome.
Prophetically Convenient: Indicates that their role in the prophecy makes them important, but not necessarily valued for who they are.
Selective Zeal: Reflects a passionate support for the role Jews play in their eschatological beliefs, but a disregard for their spiritual well-being.
Conditional Support: Implies that the support for Jews is based not on a genuine concern for them as a people, but on the role they are perceived to play in a prophetic scenario.
End-Times Focused: Shows an overwhelming concern with the apocalyptic narrative in which Jews are key players, rather than with their current real-world circumstances or spiritual fate.
Armageddon-Centric: Revolves around the belief in an impending cataclysmic event, with Jews playing a pivotal role in its onset.
Apocalyptic Utilization: The attitude of using Jews and their situation as a means to fulfill apocalyptic prophecies.
Soteriologically Indifferent: Indicates indifference to the salvation or spiritual fate of the Jewish people, focusing instead on their role in eschatological events.
Selective Interpretation: Adhering to certain aspects of an ideology or belief system while disregarding or rationalizing others that might be contradictory.
Ideological Compartmentalization: The ability to maintain conflicting beliefs or attitudes by separating them into distinct 'compartments' in one's mind.
Pragmatic Alliance: Forming alliances based on specific goals or interests, despite underlying ideological differences or conflicts.
Ends Justify the Means: A belief that the desired end result (such as a political or prophetic goal) can justify the means used to achieve it, even if those means conflict with other aspects of their beliefs or values.
Cognitive Dissonance: The mental discomfort experienced when holding two or more contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values, which can lead to rationalizing or justifying these contradictions.
Instrumentalization of Israel for Non-Jewish Goals: If support for Israel is based solely on using the state or its policies as a means to achieve non-Jewish goals (such as hastening a religious prophecy), this could be seen as disregarding the actual well-being and rights of Jewish people. Such support can be problematic if it views Jews and Israel merely as tools for an agenda, rather than as a people with their own rights and interests.
Support Accompanied by Anti-Semitic Beliefs: If support for Israel coexists with anti-Semitic stereotypes, conspiracy theories, or rhetoric, this would be a case where the support might be considered problematic in terms of its relationship to anti-Semitism.
