Netanyahu is hiding behind the shield of discrimination , all the while discriminating to the extreme against another group.

He's a pathetic coward, and he's dishonoring the memories of all those victims of actual antisemitism over the centuries. And all so he and his cronies can conduct genocide on the Palestinians and steal their land.

I've met plenty of wonderful Jewish people. And while I'm not a religious man, I respect their faith and their culture. But there's a chasm between Judaism and the shitty authoritarianism that too many (but not all) Israelis have endorsed. What happened on October 7th was disgraceful and horrible. And those who did it should be punished to the extreme. But fuck the Israeli government and all their supporters for what they are doing now.

Naomi Klein called Zionism a false idol for Jews and that really made a lot of sense.

Netanyahu and his Zionist crownies are actively using antisemitism. Jewish protestors who stand against the genocide are beaten up, arrested, thrown out of their jobs or denied public funding. They are defamed as "alledgedely jewish" in Germany and other places, even though their grandparents and great grandparents had to life through the Holocaust.

Zionism is a fascist ideology that is happy to use antisemitism to silence any jewish dissident.
