    How do these idiots reconcile their now open antisemitism with their rabid love of Israel?

      They think supporting Israel means they can’t be antisemitic, no matter what.

      Multiple choice:

      1. Israel is something of an ethnostate that antisemites want to mimic.
      2. Israel existing is a precondition for the rapture, or something.
      3. They don’t like Jews, so they want them to have somewhere to go that’s not here.
      4. They’re just dumb shits.
      5. All of the above.

      I’d argue that they’re far more racist and Christian-Nationalist than they are anti-semitic, so killing brown muslims is more important than supporting a Jewish state. Also Israel is a Jewish Nationalist state, so it’s analogous to the Nazi’s allying with Japan — fascists ally with other fascists.

      They need Israel to bring about the end times. The Jews themselves will all burn in hell, that is unless they convert to Christianity. That is conservative Christians end goal.

      Many of these anti-semites love having Israel as a Jewish state. They imagine that it means there’s someplace for them to send us American Jews off to when they take over. Nevermind that most American Jews were born in America, have never been to Israel, and don’t want to go. The anti-semites think that’s where we belong and they’ll ship us all “back” there as soon as they can.

      Western support for Israel has always been an antisemitic thing - Christian Zionism has always been based on the virulently antisemitic idea that Jewish people “do not belong” in “western civilization” and should be “sent back where they came from.”

      Virulent antisemitism and rabid support of Israel goes together like horse and carriage.

        There’s also the delayed anti-semitism of evangelical Christians. They think that Jesus will come back when a Jewish-controlled Israel suffers a huge attack. Then, as Jesus pulls them all to heaven, he’ll toss all of us Jews into hell for all eternity. By “supporting Israel,” the evangelicals think they are setting Jews up to burn in hell as soon as possible.

        This is also why evangelicals are big supporters of groups like the settlers. After all, they need a big attack on Israel and peace in the region would reduce the chances of this happening. If they added a few gallons of gas to the raging fire there, though, they might be able to get things so bad that the “Jesus Returns Attack” happens.

        Omg, it’s so obvious now, I don’t know why I didn’t put this together before.

        “We better defend Israel because we don’t want em here.”

          It should be obvious, but it’s like ole’ Malcom X said - the purpose of the media is to make you love the oppressor and hate the oppressed. Nowhere is that more true than the brain-warping propaganda we have been fed in regards to Israel for decades.

          If you take a look at all the countries that have always been in support of the very idea of Israel - Canada, the UK, Germany, France, Australia, Apartheid-era South Africa and, of course, the US - it becomes patently clear that the most rabidly pro-Israel countries are all countries with deep histories of white supremacism, antisemitism and, very importantly, colonialism.

          It is no coincidence - the people who created Israel and runs it to this very day learned their “westernism” from the best in the genocidal colonialism business.

    “I know it’s antisemitic but in his defense the Jews deserve it”

    Fuck both those antisemitic pieces of shit. If they don’t like our Jewish neighbors then they can leave the country.

    Dall-e prompt for image : “Sad right wing commentator doing a video podcast with news style banner from mothers basement, walls with posters featuring eagles with guns drawn, American coloured lighting illuminating the basement brickwork, world globe painted completely solid with no countries discernible reflecting commentators own understanding of the real world, generic suit with tie, a clump of hair awkwardly placed on head resembling the marrying of both Bert and Ernie’s hairstyles in the same cut , facial features inspired by a failed NBA 2K face scan.”

        I have been cracking up at all the details in the pic. The massive teddy bear is hilarious, there appears to be a lute in the background, he is surrounded by weapon magazines, and directly behind him, is that the fake Barbasol shaving cream can from Jurassic Park?

          All it needs now is a massive neon “2A” sign and a “no step on snek” flag.

          The prompt and the picture were really good though.

    I know Republicans are LITERALLY blaming Jews for everything bad in the world but remember Republicans are definitely totally not Nazis! They also refuse to condemn any form of Nazi behavior but they are NOT NOT Nazis! They also literally elect KKK members but are LEGIT not Nazis! They also wine and dine with proudly self proclaimed Nazis like Nick Fuentes but trust me they AREN’T actually Nazis! They also made it illegal to teach Hitler was ONLY bad but Republicans are not Nazis!

    Israel had always played both sides of American politics. Proof: AIPAC is supposedly non-partisan and candidates of both parties openly kowtow to them. This is the gamble that is biting Israel in the ass. The Left abhors apartheid while the Right are straight up Nazis wanting Holocaust 1.0 (they believe the previous one is fake). The long term support of Israel is gone once the Boomers die out.
