1. Micah 3. The Book of Micah with Brit-Am/Hebrew Awareness Commentary
https://hebrewnations.com/articles/bible/micah/micah3.html
Extracts:
The Sages (Midrash Torat Cohanim,"BeChukotai 26:17) said that the worst enemies of the Hebrews come from their own people.
So too, in World War-2 there were Jews who helped the Germans. Dr Hilell Ziedman has an article on this in an anthology of Torah articles concerning the Holocaust ("HaShoah" - Auraita, 21, 5771, p. 518).
Those Jews who helped the Germans came mostly from the Secular Intellectual and Criminal classes.
According to Ziedman, no Religious Jews cooperated in the oppression of other Jews.
The Sages said that when the Judges are corrupt disasters comes upon the community.
They also said that the Divine Presence will not return to Israel until they remove the bad Judges and Policemen from ruling over them (Talmud, Shabat, 139;a).
Midrash Tanchuma opines that Zion symbolizes Joseph.
The Prophecies may therefore be pertinent not only to Judah but also to the Lost Ten Tribes in their places of Exile.

2. Proof a Day, Here to Stay, the Brit-Am Way. Separate from Judah
https://hebrewnations.com/articles/biblical-proof/attributes/roleseparate.html
:
The Lost Ten Tribes will not be part of Judah. Only in the Last days just before or during the Messianic Era will Judah and Joseph re-unite. Until that time they will be separate.
The Lost Ten Tribes must therefore be sought for amongst an entity that is not part of Judah and not recognized by Judah. In the End Times recognition will come but it will not be easy.
Judah has prejudices and historical hang-ups to overcome and so does Joseph. A lot of dislike of Judah and wrong thoughts concerning Judah are still to be found amongst Joseph. We deal with people from Joseph everyday and meet every extreme. On the whole these experiences serve to strengthen our conviction of Brit-Am truth though at the same time quite a few exceptions are encountered.
In the census figures of Ezra and Nechamia none of the Ten Tribes are mentioned but only people from Judah, Benjamin, and Levi.
All of the Prophets spoke of the Ten Tribes remaining separate and lost until the End Times.
Ezekiel 37 speaks of the re-union of Judah and Joseph in the end times. Isaiah (ch. 11) also spoke of the future re-union of Joseph and Judah. Isaiah in this passage implies that not only will the true halves have been separate until the end times but also a certain amount of antagonism may have existed between them on occasion.
Isaiah 11:
12 AND HE SHALL SET UP AN ENSIGN FOR THE NATIONS, AND SHALL ASSEMBLE THE OUTCASTS OF ISRAEL, AND GATHER TOGETHER THE DISPERSED OF JUDAH FROM THE FOUR CORNERS OF THE EARTH. "
13 "THE ENVY ALSO OF EPHRAIM SHALL DEPART, AND THE ADVERSARIES OF JUDAH SHALL BE CUT OFF: EPHRAIM SHALL NOT ENVY JUDAH, AND JUDAH SHALL NOT VEX EPHRAIM. "Each side will not envy or vex the other AFTER the re-union. This implies that before the re-union there were occasions when elements amongst one side or the other were antagonistic to their brothers.
Nachmanides (1194-1270) spoke of these issues in his "Book of Redemption:"
# Concerning whom did Isaiah pronounce this prophecy. He was speaking only concerning Judah and Joseph. Said Rabbi Shmuel son of Nachman in the name of Rabbi Yonathan, when Joseph and Judah were arguing the Holy Angels said to each other, Let us go down and see what is happening. Usually when a bull and a lion confront each other the bull retreats before the lion. In this case a bull (Joseph) and a lion (Judah) are arguing and there is a standoff. Jealousy will continue to abide between these two until the Messiah comes....
# In the past Jeroboam the son of Nebat who was from Ephraim hated King Rehoboam who was from Judah. There was a controversy between them. In the future there will be peace between the two anointed leaders. They will not be jealous of each other. Concerning them, it says:
Isaiah 11:
13 "THE ENVY ALSO OF EPHRAIM SHALL DEPART, AND THE ADVERSARIES OF JUDAH SHALL BE CUT OFF: EPHRAIM SHALL NOT ENVY JUDAH, AND JUDAH SHALL NOT VEX EPHRAIM ." Everywhere you find these two tribes (Judah and Joseph) hating each other and antagonistic to each other, etc. May we infer from this that even the future Anointed Captain of War who will arise from Joseph and the Anointed Messiah who will arise from Judah will (Heaven forbid) be jealous of each other? No.... [Midrash]

Why are some people so critical towards Israel?
https://www.quora.com/Why-are-some-people-so-critical-towards-Israel/answer/Yair-Davidiy
Extracts:
Israel is the Jewish State. People are critical of Israel because they hate Jews. Some of them claim to be against Israel because Israel allegedly is/or has been unjust towards the Palestinians. Most of these allegations are untrue or grossly exaggerated. Even if there were some truth to them (and there is not) it would be nothing compared to what happens elsewhere.
Israel however is important because Jews live there!
Criticism of Israel is criticism of the Jews and it can be done under the veneer of genuine concern for others. If such is not the case, why are the critics of Israel saying nothing in other, far more serious, cases?
Why then do people hate Jews?
Jews are hated because of the Torah. The Torah was given on Mount Sinai.
Exodus (ESV) 31: 18 And he gave to Moses, when he had finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, the two tablets of the testimony, tablets of stone, written with the finger of God.
# Why was it called Sinai ? because from there came hatred (Hebrew "Sinah") of the Gentiles for Jews (Talmud, Shabat 89;a).
Without the Bible there is no Divine Authority and everything is relevant and all restraints are expendable. The Jews are witnesses to the existence of the Bible. Without the Jews the Bible could be relegated to an honorable place in some libraries alongside other works of forgotten civilizations. The Jews bear living testimony to the existence of Biblical Moral Imperative. Even Jews who are not religious and do not believe in the Bible still bear testimony to it.
That is why People Hate the Jews and that is why they hate Israel.
