    The GOP openly courts antisemites while also supporting Israel. They make sure to have all the awful bases covered.

      They need all the Jews to return to Israel and the temple to be rebuilt so Jesus can come back. Of course, that does mean expelling all Jews from every other country Jews are in, but they leave that part out.

        Zionism fits neatly into the view that every country should be ethically homogenous.

            And yet so is hating Jews. Ordinarily a quandary, but the GOP lives for hypocrisy.

              Hating Jews “over here”.

              “Over there” is fine, which is why American Racism dovetails so neatly with Zionism: both desire the same, just from different directions.

              PS: I was going to say “Fascism” instead of “American Racism”, but frankly if there is one thing this whole situation has made clear is that Liberals are also all about different treatment depending on a person’s etnicity - as made so puignantly clear in their reaction to recent university demonstrations as well as by the very different language used in the Liberal Press when it comes to Palestinians and Israelis - so it’s really just both variants of Racism in the US.

        I knew that sounded wrong and reading your word brought the correct one to mind. Fixed!
