Israeli being Israeli. You know, for being persecuted throughout history, I would think that Jews would want to stay on the right side of history.
I can’t trust any Jews in my community now. They might look at my skin and think badly of me. Maybe they might hurt me. I’m not Palestinian but dark skin is dark skin to these racists.
Zionism goes against the actual teachings of Judaism, it’s very revisionist. Jewish opposition to Israel is as old as Zionism itself. Hasidic Jewish people, while small in number, are still the largest Anti-zionist group in Israel. Jewish people have been at the forefront of Anti-zionist activism for a long time, including Jewish Voice for Peace. Palestinians too of course.
Zionism uses Judaism as a shield, deflecting criticism against it’s fascist actions as anti-semitic, which in-turn raises the amount of genuine anti-semitism experienced by Jewish people worldwide, due to that false conflation of Judaism and Zionism. That’s why it’s critical to detangle that false conflation.
Adi Callai, an Israeli, does a great analysis of how Antisemitism has been weaponized by Zionism during its history.
There is many Jews who oppose Israel and want nothing to do with it.
You should not alienate them. Answering Israels racism with discrimination against Jews isn’t better and only serves the interests of the Zionist ideologues that often cooperate with Antisemites as they have the same goals.
I’m definitely avoiding them in my hometown. I can’t look at homes with Israel flags and be like “yay we should get along”. Sorry, if you fly that flag in America, we all know what kind of person you are.
Also, where are these Jewish people that are against the genocide? Why are they so quite in my town?

The voice of Zionism is so loud and strong.
