Breaking the Chains of Legacy Zionism
The upcoming World Zionist Congress (WZC) election, scheduled from March 10 to May 5, 2025, is a pivotal moment for the global Jewish community. As highlighted in a recent article, this election will determine the allocation of over $1 billion annually to Jewish institutions for the next five years. The piece emphasizes the traditional tug-of-war between Orthodox and liberal factions, suggesting a binary choice for voters. However, this perspective overlooks the emergence of dynamic new movements that transcend outdated dichotomies.
Enter Israel365 Action, a bold initiative redefining Zionist leadership in our post-October 7th world. Our platform is not confined by the old frameworks of ideas that have run their course; instead, we champion a holistic vision rooted in unwavering commitment to the entirety of the Land of Israel and the pursuit of a stronger, safer, sovereign Israel.
The article underscores the significance of the WZC as a “parliament of the Jewish people,” a sentiment we wholeheartedly embrace. Yet, it fails to acknowledge the surge of innovative parties like Israel365 Action that are reshaping the Zionist discourse.
The article sceptically reported about us that: “A controversy arose recently when accusations were made that one of the new slates, Israel365 Action, may have a hidden Christian agenda.” Nothing could be further from the truth. We have no hidden agenda and we are happy to present our full and unabashed relationships with truest friends – faith-based Christians who stand with Israel because of their biblical values.
Israel’s truest friends are not found in the old halls of legacy institutions clinging to outdated paradigms but in the faith-based Christian communities who stand with Israel because of our shared values. These allies are not bound by fleeting political trends; their support is unwavering and deeply rooted in faith. Their influence extends to the highest levels of American policymaking, shaping the American administration’s stance on Israel.
This was evident just last week when Prime Minister Netanyahu’s first meeting in the U.S. was not with legacy Jewish organizations but with evangelical leaders—the backbone of Israel’s strongest support in America. Israel365 Action embodies this bold, unapologetic approach to Zionism. We reject the empty nostalgia of organizations stuck in a so-called “golden age” that never was, just as we dismiss their utopian fantasies that will never be. Our movement is about real, strategic leadership—leveraging authentic alliances, not chasing outdated illusions.
Israel365 Action offers a new path forward. We driven by a vision of a united, strong, and prosperous Israel. As the WZC election approaches, we urge voters to look beyond the usual suspects and consider the transformative potential of new leadership and innovative problem-solving. The future of Zionism depends on it.
