Foto: Vindiktatoren er klar til at udfylde Jewish News Syndicate’s År 5786-quiz! 22.september 2025. Billede taget af Vindiktatoren. Jeg gengiver indhold fra Jewish News Syndicate her i artiklen og opfordrer læserne af Vindiktatorens Avis til at gå ind på JNS’ hjemmeside og udfylde udfordringen.
Jewish News Syndicate har udgivet en År 5786-quiz, hvor man udfordres til at gætte med om, hvad der sker- og ikke sker- i det jødiske År 5786. Jeg har udfyldt udfordringen her på siden og har gennemgået alle spørgsmålene; man kan også selv udfylde JNS-quizzen ved at gå ind på nedenstående link:
Get out your crystal ball! Take the 5786 Jewish pundit quiz – JNS.org
Spørgsmål 1:
1. By Rosh Hashanah 5787, the prime minister of Israel will be:
A: Benjamin Netanyahu, who will be preparing to run for re-election later in the fall of 2026.
B: Naftali Bennett, who will lead a center-left coalition to victory over the Likud in the first post-Oct. 7 Knesset election.
C: Israel Katz, who will succeed Netanyahu, who retires after declaring victory in Gaza.
D: Gideon Sa’ar, who will succeed Netanyahu, who will retire for health reasons.
E: Ron Dermer, who will have been anointed as his successor by the prime minister.
Man kan forresten kun vælge 1 mulighed pr spørgsmål i denne quiz. Jeg tror faktisk, det mest sandsynlige er at Netanyahu stadig er premierminister, men alligevel vil jeg nok vælge: D – Gideon Sa’ar, der har gjort det fremragende. Nu tror jeg ikke, Netanyahu trækker sig af helbredsårsager, men fordi krigen(e) er blevet vundet (som nævnt i mulighed C) og han føler, han har brug for en lang pause.
Spørgsmål 2:
2. By Rosh Hashanah 5787, the war in Gaza will:
A: Still be dragging on with Hamas guerrilla forces continuing to fight.
B: Have concluded with the complete eradication of Hamas and Israeli military rule having been implemented in the Strip.
C: Be about to start up again after a U.S. and international effort to replace Hamas with a Palestinian Authority-type entity after an Israeli victory allows the revival of Hamas.
D: Have concluded after Palestinians who want peace rebelled against Hamas.
Jeg håber på B- eller en endnu bedre løsning. Men er bange for at C kan blive en særdeles realistisk mulighed, hvis Vesten bliver ved med at dumme sig igen og igen og igen, med vores dumstædige insisteren på “tostatsløsning” uden betingelser. Men mit gæt er B.
Spørgsmål 3:
3. By Rosh Hashanah 5787, a Palestinian state will:
A: Still not exist.
B: Still not exist but will still have been recognized by all but the United States and a handful of allies, including Hungary and the Czech Republic.
C: Exist in all but name in Gaza under Hamas rule after Israel signs a ceasefire accord that brings the release of all of the hostages.
D: Be recognized by the U.N. Security Council after a break between the Trump administration and Israel.
Her gætter jeg på B.
Spørgsmål 4:
4. By Rosh Hashanah 5787, the Abraham Accords will:
A: Have been abandoned by its original Arab signatories because of their outrage over the war in Gaza.
B: Be expanded to include Syria and Saudi Arabia.
C: Be expanded to include all Arab states except Qatar, Yemen and Saudi Arabia.
D: Remain as it was a year earlier, with no states added or subtracted.
Det ville være fint hvis der var endnu en mulighed her, nemlig “Have been abandoned by some of the signatories”. Men den findes ikke. Så jeg gætter i stedet på: A.
Jeg tror ikke på at de aftaler kan holde i længden, især ikke når de muslimske lande indser, hvor stor støtte, de har i Vesten og hvor vellykket den islamiske infiltration er i Vesteuropa. Så går man formentlig tilbage til krigsmentaliteten, selvom det vil være katastrofalt.
Spørgsmål 5:
5. By the start of the 2026-27 academic year, antisemitism on U.S. college campuses will:
A: Be a dead issue as Trump administration threats will have forced all schools to abandon DEI and to discipline and/or expel pro-Hamas mobs.
B: Intensify as general acceptance of Hamas blood libels about Israeli “genocide” causes successive waves of encampments and violent demonstrations at many schools.
C: Continue to be a problem after Trump abandons efforts to stop it following losses in court cases.
D: Have resulted in an exodus of Jewish students from Ivy League schools to those in the Southeastern Conference of college football.
Her tror jeg desværre mest på: B.
Spørgsmål 6:
6. At the 2026 Oscars ceremony, how many winners will declare their support for a “Free Palestine?”
A: Zero after the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences strictly enforces a rule against political speeches.
B: All of them, after the Academy requires all nominees to pledge to boycott Israel.
C: None except for those Jews who win awards.
D: At least six, including two of the major acting categories
Det ville være fint med flere valgmuligheder. Jeg tror mest på muligheden “Nogle enkelte”, hvis den var der. Man kunne også vælge den humoristisk-sarkastiske mulighed C, hvilket ikke ville undre mig. Men jeg vælger: D. som i “desværre”.
Spørgsmål 7:
7. How many acts of political violence will occur in the United States in 5786?
A: At least 50 as the nation goes to the brink of civil war.
B: None as worries about the issue fade.
C: Between five and 10, as civil strife continues with more assassination attempts against both Republicans and Democrats.
D: Less than five
Det må blive mulighed C. Afhænger meget af den politiske udvikling og om det lykkes Trump-administration at skabe god stemning, reel økonomisk- og især mental- fremgang og mere forståelse for sin politik. I så fald ender vi i mulighed D eller ligefrem B. Jeg tror desværre bare at det mest sandsynlige er mulighed C, for USA er i en situation, hvor der er brug for nærmest mirakuløse positive hændelser, for at lette den trykkede stemning.
Spørgsmål 8:
8. The winner of the 2025 New York mayoral election will be:
A: Eric Adams
B: Andrew Cuomo
C: Zohran Mamdani
D: Curtis Sliwa
En muslimsk, Israel-hadende borgmester i New York? Ja, hvorfor ikke? Hele verden hader Israel og den muslimske kandidat Mamdani har et program, der tiltaler alle Israel-haderne- og lidt til. Men da jeg rent faktisk er optimist af natur, så gætter jeg på mulighed D- Curtis Sliwa!
Spørgsmål 9:
9. By Rosh Hashanah 5787, will there be any more late-night comedy show hosts who are anti-Trump?
A: All of them, except for Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld, will continue to provide daily in-kind contributions to the Democrats.
B: Only Jon Stewart on Comedy Central will still be anti-Trump.
C: None as Trump quashes freedom of speech.
D: The shows on ABC and NBC will continue to be anti-Trump, while CBS hires Ben Shapiro to give nightly lectures about conservatism in their late-night spot.
Jeg gætter på mulighed A.
Spørgsmål 10:
10. The following event will not happen in 5786:
A: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) will already have become the frontrunner for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination.
B: Netflix will drop the upcoming season of “Fauda” from its platform because of the pressure to boycott Israel.
C: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be convicted on corruption charges.
D: Illegal immigration will continue to decline as Trump’s closure of the border and mass deportations are sustained by the courts.
E: Support for Israel in the United States will continue to decline
Her gætter jeg på C. Jeg tror ikke, anklagerne mod Netanyahu holder.
Det er altid interessant at se, hvad JNS-chefredaktør Jonathan S Tobin gætter på. Jeg gengiver hans svar herunder og så kan man jo se næste Rosh Hashanah, hvordan verden ser ud der- hvis den stadig står..
Tobin’s gæt:
1. A; 2. B; 3. B; 4. D; 5. B; 6. D; 7. D; 8. C; 9. A; 10. C
