    To an American, none of these people (Israelis, Iranians, Palestinians) are white. I don’t know why it even got brought up alongside select headlines of the day.

        Yeah not in most of America.

        I’ve also not yet personally met a person that equates an American Jew with an Israeli.

        In all honesty, every American Jew I know has always made fun of Israelis as a kind of “other”. Like how Americans make fun of the British. There’s a relationship there but you’re not the same.

        Israelis are middle easterners, and no middle easterners are white to an American. That doesn’t mean we don’t pick sides like we did with Saddam… twice.

          What the fuck did I say about american Jews?

          Kapo trash have invested a lot of media and capital in the idea that they are white. The original settlers were Europeans. They do white supremacist shit like sterilizing Ethiopian Jews who come in. They’re very invested in the concept of whiteness. Kind of a conscious national project emulating what irish-americans did a century or so ago.

          Yeah my experience with American Jews relating to those fuckers is that reactions range from embarrassment to outrage.

          You’re the only one equating the two. Please stop. You’re going to get someone killed by an idiot who doesn’t understand the difference and thinks they’re doing a good thing. What the fuck is wrong with you?
