It should be noted, that they want that isolation- and they also want people to hate ashkenazi Jews so that maybe they “come home”.
Nothing breeds internal unity like external threats. Cults- and the vast majority of religions use this all the time, to scare people into not leaving.
Amazing that people saw this coming so long ago actually. Although they're currently on reasonably good terms with Egypt.
Is that really notable today? I'd like to read some sources on that. It seems the diaspora keeps supporting them. For example, the big donors who threatened to stop funding USA universities if they don't censor the protests.
In EU, I also frequently read about organizations against anti-Semitism amalgamate pro-Palestinian sentiments with anti-Semitism.
Support for the Palestinian cause amongst Jewish-Americans, at least, was considerably higher than the general population of Americans, and certainly higher than it is in Israel.

Thank you, I'll read it.
