Are we abandoning Israel?

[Anonymous]

But if we banded all those Ahkenazis, then they won’t be able to create their ultimate dreamscape, which is Eretz Israel.

I read Kamala Harris’ book and the paragraphs and paragraphs she spends snivelling and grovelling over Israel, talking about how she has “loved” Israel even as a SMALL CHILD, it was really something.

I didn’t read the book, but not surprising. She was raised in a Baptist church. I am Harris’s age, and as a former Baptist myself, I can tell you that we were indoctrinated to love Israel at all cost. You couldn’t get your heaven if you were against God’s chosen people. As I got older and began to question, I asked if they’re chosen, what am I, mincemeat? Am I too not worthy. Some people don’t do introspection when it comes to indoctrinated religion.

Chuck Schumer was one of 7 Senate Democrats to vote to send bulldozers to Israel. 40 Democratic Senators voted no.

Mr. Schumer, you are out of touch with our base and the nation.

Step aside.

Senator Schumer says God made him a guardian of Israel

Can somebody please primary Chuck Schumer and win. He’s gotta go. We already know Fetterman is a lost cause and must go. Combs surprised me with his vote, and I don’t know anything about the two Nevada senators who voted to give Israel genocidal weapons in our name.

Any Senator that continues to support Israel needs to be primaried and taken out of office. America needs to look out after its own people, not a bunch of disgusting racist genocidal creeps half a world away.

American jews need to get on the right side of history and actively speak out against war crimes. Pro-Israel people are starting to say the quiet parts out loud, knowing that it's probably too late, but hoping to salvage some future relationship between America and Israel.

They're starting to acknowledge that it's Israel's fault, or at least they're trying to limit the damage by finding a fall guy in Netanyahu.

Possible off-ramps for American sentiment to ameliorate are disappearing rather quickly, and still there remains this wall of silence.

Here's an editorial from the pro-zionist South Florida Sun Sentinel

The close relationship between the U.S. and Israel has become foreboding for both nations.

That’s evident in a Pew Research Center poll, a month into President Trump’s unprovoked war in alliance with Israel, which has led to an alarming shift in U.S. public opinion.

Sixty percent of U.S. adults view Israel unfavorably, compared to 53% last year. Almost as many have no confidence in Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Eight in 10 Democrats and independents now disapprove of Israel, leaving Republicans, Jewish Americans and white evangelical Protestants as the only blocs still in support.

Republicans under age 50 disfavor Israel by 57%, compared to 50% last year.

[blah blah insert obligatory anti-semitism fatalism here blah blah]

This can’t be said enough: There are legitimate reasons having nothing to do with antisemitism to object to Israel’s conduct.

As in Gaza, the recent bombing of Lebanon has been indiscriminate, with unforgivable civilian casualties. Its creeping annexation of the West Bank is a massive affront to human rights.

The Knesset recently legalized the death penalty for Arabs who murder Jews, but not for the hoodlum Israeli settlers who have been killing West Bank residents to seize their land.

Even among Jews in America, the Pew poll found lukewarm 64% approval of Israel.

Yet Netanyahu shows no concern for how Israel’s excesses are fueling antisemitism in what has been Israel’s only dependable ally.

He counts on U.S. support for his warfare with heavy ordnance in Gaza and Lebanon, American forces in Iran and a reliable UN veto. The one nation that could restrain his worst impulses — us — enables them instead.

Netanyahu tempted Trump with fantastical visions of regime change in Iran if our two nations could just do enough damage there. That’s no way to win hearts and minds, and besides, it is failing.

I hope Trump can make us more conservative here in Oceania. I love MAGA!

you are missing the generational shift.

Key Trends in Perceptions

Widespread Unfavorability: Roughly 63% of young voters (18–34) now hold a negative opinion of Israel, while only 13% view it favorably.

Sympathy Shift: For the first time since 2001, a majority of Americans aged 18–34 (53%) say they sympathize more with Palestinians, compared to only 23% who sympathize more with Israelis.

just like cannabis. I am old enough to remember when most of the adults viewed pot as hard core drug. Now it is legal for recreational use .

same thing is happening with Israel . In a decade, Israel will be on its own without US support.

My mom married into a very conservative Jewish family (while I was from 3x christian denominations, more or less) and I definitely recognize the difference between decades ago and now.

Kamala Harris didn't "love" Israel as a small child, she's my age and that was not a thing in Sunday school, but you did over time learn a refrains of "let my people go" and "the chosen people" and an overdeveloped martyr complex (imho) where lots of Christians bent over backwards for decades to pretend they weren't anti-semitic even as they existed in exclusionary country clubs, college admissions.

Now everyone's against "the Muslims" in pretty much exactly the same way.

No one who claims to be "against islam" even knows what they are talking about.

Hah, good luck trying to abandon Israel

Money doesn’t buy popularity

[Anonymous]

I feel pretty bad about this, but in NY the bigger money politicians are pretty much shored up for their elections by money aligned with Jewish causes.

I was seriously disappointed by Sen. Gillibrand when she made those noises about trigger words. I absolutely understand it was because she was representing her "interests" as a politician but ... I was disappointed. It pretty much outed her to me.

I get it. I GET IT.

But it doesn't make me admire her any longer.

She's trying to do good ... but she's also taking the money.

I HOPE SO.
We have to abandon Israel. 70% are upset about the ceasefire. Let them do their own thing.

Hence the push to engage militarily with Iran. Israel is going to push all strategies secretly planned these past decades.

WTH does that have to do with anything? Plastic surgery makeup and hair dye does not make a person. In fact I would argue that vanity is a fools errand.
