The uneasy marriage between secular nationalism and religious orthodoxy in 1970s Israel created a paradoxical alliance that would reshape the nation's territorial politics. When Menachem Begin's Likud party joined forces with the National Religious Party under Rabbi Zvi Yehudah Kook's spiritual leadership, both groups arrived at identical positions on Israel's territorial non-negotiability through radically different justifications. Through analysis of religious flyers and political documents, a pattern emerges: Begin championed historical and geopolitical arguments while Rabbi Kook wielded biblical, Talmudic, and halakhic sources - yet both reached the same inflexible conclusions. This ideological convergence manifested in concrete political actions, from organized protests during Henry Kissinger's diplomatic missions to unauthorized settlement construction near Nablus. The religious proof-texting employed by both parties generated a "mythic thought-world" disconnected from political realities, eerily echoing previous moments in Jewish history when messianic thinking led to disaster. While myths have occasionally shaped reality in Jewish history, the exploitation of sacred texts to resolve complex geopolitical challenges represents a dangerous departure from rational governance that risks repeating historical catastrophes.
