"The 1949 establishment of the State of Israel, 75 years ago, is the third attempt to create a sovereign state of Israel. This is what some call the “curse of the eighth decade,” which took down the previous governments. There are devoted Jews who look at this and indeed fear the fall of Israel is just ahead.
"Rahat points out that other nations have also experienced the “curse of the eighth decade,” referring to the American Civil War, which broke out 86 years after the adoption of the Constitution, Italy became fascist, and Germany became a Nazi state in their eighth decade after each nation’s unification. The Third Republic of France, founded in 1871, surrendered to the Nazi boot in 1940, in its eighth decade. Even communism in Russia, which was born in the 1917 Revolution, collapsed by 1991."

"Scientia potentia est" is a Latin aphorism that can be translated as "knowledge is
power" and is often attributed to Sir Francis Bacon.
In the Biblical Book of Proverbs, a proverb in a very similar wording can be found in Hebrew and is translated as:
“A wise man is strong, a
man of knowledge increaseth strength."
This sentence became more widespread around 1000 AD as it's seen in the Persian poet's Ferdowsi's Shanme, translated into English as "one who has wisdom is powerful".
The first known reference of the exact phrase appeared in the Latin edition of Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan published in 1668.
