I agree, but you have to remember that the Israeli state wants it this way. They want the world to conflate Jewish and Israeli in order to hide their own fascism. And they will drag every Jewish person to their pit if allowed to. Just like Hamas wants to tangle every Muslim into their warped worldview with their holy war bullshit excuse for violence.

It doesn't help that the pro-Israel factions accuses anyone criticizing Israel an anti-semite, even other Semitic people.

It seems that Jews are the only people that can criticize Israel without being called anti-semite. They get the self-hating Jew label instead.

Tbf that's probably by Israel's design.

The more people are bullied into associating with Israel by antisemites, the more likely they are to hop on the right of return bandwagon.

This is partially because they want their own version of america's demographic life support, partially because they want more settlers, and partially because they still have a SERIOUS chip on the shoulder over how American jews flatly rejected Zionism and the creation of Israel at the outset.

What anti-Semitic things were said at this particular rally? Do you know? Maybe I missed something, but the article seems rather sparse on details.

Politico is owned by Axel Springer SE who also own the Bild, a german tabloid that regularly spreads hate about minorities and anything left of center right. Axel Springer also got funded by the CIA in exchange for promoting a pro american mindset.

This reminds me of the accusations of antisemitism that Jeremy Corbyn attracted during the last election in the UK. I kept asking for evidence of his antisemitism but nobody attacking him could provide anything of substance.

Don't you know? The Zionist definition of "antisemitism" includes "literally any criticism of their genocidal apartheid ethnostate, including pointing out that it is, in fact, a genocidal apartheid ethnostate."

In general, yes, but not based on this.

Not really. She is an idealist and visionary. She has an idea for what the future of the country should be, but, from what I have seen, she never gets too deep in the details of how to achieve it. We need people like her to say that we should not be using fossil fuels to power our transportation, but we also need people who can determine how much funding the government needs to provide to put more chargers on public parking, what the fine would be for hogging the parking spot, how many parking enforcement officers we will need to patrol them all, how much the power grid will need to be updated to provide power to the chargers…

Yes, many of the details fall to the executive branch to execute, but Congress needs to allocate funding for it, remove legal barriers, decide on penalties for non-compliance, etc.

In my experience it strongly depends on the organizers. The latest pro-palestine rally i attended was organized by some leftist organizations in coalition with local palestinians and that rally worked out very well. Some conspiracy nuts with signs how Jews rule the world were told to fuck off by some Antifa guys and everything else went very well. Also no national flags besides palestinian ones were allowed, i appreciated that a lot.

The group did not organize Sunday’s rally, its leadership said Monday. But several lawmakers with DSA ties are distancing themselves from what was said at the event.

Sure ya were, bud. Or, shittttt, maybe you were and just not mature enough not to let perfection be the enemy of good.
