[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The younger generation is much less pro Israel than the oldies. It will be interesting to see what happens to US foreign policy towards Israel once the boomers are gone [/quote]

It will indeed.

Will also be interesting to see how the younger generation’s views change as they age.

Remember that today’s conservative Boomers were blowing up college campuses 50 years ago to protest Vietnam.[/quote]

yes and Israel was the underdog then- made up of people who'd been abused in Europe or driven out of their homelands in Iran, Iraq, Morocco and Egypt.  also we knew nothing about the nakba, the truth of what happened in Europe created a deep swell of sympathy for Israelis but we have seen what our vengeance wrought in Afghanistan and Iraq. I know young men who served in Iraq whose parents are very conservative, right wing GOP, pro-life st. jude's graduates who came home saying that Bush should be had up for war crimes only to be hushed by their parents. you can only hush your kids for so long. .at some point they'll be in teh 40's and you'll be weak and at their mercy, they won't have to listen to you then and gen z is even less likely to put up with BS than these coddled millennials who saw how Biden , Pelosi, bush & trump et the entirety of grifter congress has mishandled their lives and livelihoods. there is rage at the status quo bottled up, not just Gaza.
