Let’s stop pretending the 1930s make Isreal’s genocidal tendancies acceptable behavior. 

 

Israel must be really bad at the whole genocide given the population of Palestinians continues growing.

Steve King of the left :|

 

WHAT. IN. POO. PERFECT. FUCK. :|

But sure, it's anti-Semitism we should be worried about, not anti-Islamic rhetoric in this country. Let's not forget it was the alt-right that shot up a synagogue, and that Steve King, being a neo-Nazi, actually hates Jews, versus Illhan Omar, who just wants to do something about Israel, not Jews. But okay.

Omar is just not particularly bright, Tlaib is the actual one state solutioner.

Not that I expect a whole lot from congresspersons, let alone freshman, but it's clear that at least the left has hitched it's horse on the brightest of the bunch in AOC (not that she's infallible or right all the time by any means)

 

 

 

Unrelated:

64% say he committed crimes, but 59% say "nah, no impeachment (yet)"

 

I saw that the vast majority of every education, race, gender, income, whatever breakdown you care to use think Trump broke the law before coming into office (not even a majority of Republicans disagree with that!) But I wonder how that breakdown is in terms of R/R-lean/I/D-lean/D

Even this dumbass resistance grifter knows this isn’t about anti-semitism

 

Omar is being targeted because she’s challenging the American foreign policy consensus.  Those attacking her know they can get away with it because she is a Muslim woc.

 

Yup.

 

GOP reps will continue to get away with all kinds of racism.

As someone that is largely uneducated on what terms and double speak constitutes antisemitism, is “allegiance to another country” really antisemitic?

 

"Dual loyalties," is absolutely a trope used by racists and often aimed at Jewish people. That's not what this is, though. The dual loyalties trope means to suggest that a Jewish person CAN'T be loyal to anything but Israel/other Jewish people.

 

Not for nothing but Catholics also used to be accused of dual loyalties.

The idea that the Jews are ultimately disloyal to their nation because of their loyalty to Judaism has been the justification for all manner of evil done against them. There is just no need to wade into those waters.

We don't have to speak of Jewish people though, there are plenty of non-Jewish politicians that seem to put the interests of Israel over the interests of America. It can't be anti-Semitic to point this out. It's not even anti-Israel. 

 

It absolutely can be if the insulation is that American Jews are paying off non-Jewish politicians to be disloyal to America. Which people routinely do, even though we know the genesis of American support of Israel is Christian Zionism, not the Jew gold.
