As S. Ansky said ca. 1900 in his poem In Zaltsikyn Yam, [translated] “We (Jews) have heard this story before from our enemies, ‘A ghetto for the eternal kyke.’”
Israel is pretty great for anti-Semites; it’s a “somewhere else” to send all the Jews (with much better optics than Auschwitz) and it’s also pure fucking evil, and has its fingers all through many other governments, making their nutjob conspiracy theories actually look plausible sometimes.
Yeah, the actions of Israel are the number one cause of antisemitism in the world.
People who don’t know better start at accurate descriptions and righteous outrage over the atrocities committed by the IOF and the Knesset and the rage bait algorithms of social media take them down rabbit holes that lead to the actually antisemitic nonsense.
Hell, even if you know enough to avoid that, it’s sometimes hard to not be instinctively prejudiced against all Israeli people even if you’re not an antisemite.
Given that the vast majority of the population has been successfully brainwashed by decades of government indoctrination into thinking of all Palestinians as subhuman threats to their lives and thus are in favor of the oppression as long as the Israeli casualties are kept to a minimum, I must admit that I sometimes struggle with it myself…
Israel is required to exist for some interpretations of Armageddon in the Bible. They hate them, but they need Israel to exist because it’s central to moving forward with the end of the world and their gods cleansing of the forces of evil and the ushering in of a new world order.
So keep that fun fact in mind when you hear Christians being really pro Israel.
Christianity - A doomsday cult so committed to fulfilling prophecy that they’ll kill all of us for the chance to prove their interpretation of God has a bigger dick than every other deity ever conceived. /s
To make it even more WTF, the religions they have the most issue with don’t even have a different diety, just different people saying he told them an updated message on the rules of life.
Which is super weird because anti-jew but also like super pro- Israel
Because if there’s one thing they hate more than Jews, it’s Arabic people.
