In this episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, Jacob Winograd takes aim at James Lindsay’s recent comments on Israel’s war in Gaza and challenges him for doing the very thing he criticizes in others: abandoning principle for political tribe. While Lindsay often warns about the “woke right” using moral language to mask power grabs, Jacob argues that Lindsay falls into the same trap when he demands moral clarity from Hamas but gives Israel a pass. That’s not justice—it’s moral convenience.
Drawing from the historic Christian tradition of Just War Theory, Jacob lays out what a truly consistent application looks like: one that measures all sides—friend or enemy—by the same standards. He defends Israel’s right to self-defense, but insists that Christians must not confuse vengeance for virtue. This is a call to reject tribalism, to stop weaponizing theology, and to remember that justice without consistency isn’t justice at all.
