In the framework of Evolutionary Anthropodynamics, Dr. Pronab K. Chowdhury defines Judea Samaria syndrome as a specific “cultural evolutionary symptom” that drove the expansion of the Zionist state based on religious and historical
sentiment rather than evolutionary stability 1, 2.
The author justifies and explains this syndrome through the following points:
- Origins in Religious Sentiment
The syndrome is rooted in the deep religious emotion and ancient connection that the Jewish diaspora feels toward the territories of Judea and Samaria (known today as the West
Bank) 1, 2. The author argues that this historical attachment to the “sacred mounts” overrode practical considerations for the long-term survival of the state 3, 1. - Historical Context: The 1967 Six-Day War
The author identifies the 1967 Six-Day War as the primary manifestation of this syndrome 1. He characterizes the resulting occupation and expansion into the West Bank as a “terminal act of recklessness” driven by the desire to reclaim ancestral lands 1. - Impact on Evolutionary Stability
Within the author’s scientific framework, a stable state requires a high degree of “evolutionary homogeneity” in its cultural and genetic maps (referred to as the 3-map and 6-map) 1. He argues that Judea Samaria syndrome shattered this stability by:
● Integrating a Rival Population: The expansion added over one million indigenous Palestinian Arabs to the state’s population, which already included 400,000 Israeli Arab
citizens 1.
● Decreasing Homogeneity: This mass integration of a “rival” cultural group reduced the state’s internal consistency, which the author claims is a violation of natural evolutionary
laws for a “volkish” or ethnic state 1. - Connection to Geopolitical Crisis
The author views this syndrome as a key driver of the ongoing Middle East crisis. By
prioritizing religious expansion (Judea Samaria syndrome) over the “evolutionary truth” of
population stability, the state effectively created an “evolutionary bomb” 4, 1. Following his
“75-year rule,” the author suggests that the instability introduced by these anti-evolutionary
processes (beginning with the state’s founding in 1948 and its expansion in 1967) reached a
critical breaking point by 2023 1, 5.
In summary, the author portrays Judea Samaria syndrome as a form of ideological blindness where religious and tribal longing for territory (Judea and Samaria) leads to actions that
undermine the fundamental evolutionary stability and long-term survival of the cultural population 1, 2.
