[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really hope most Jews will agree with Peter Beinart.

I don't know about Jews in the US but  the overall majority of Israeli's are perfectly fine with the ongoing atrocities, this problematic nature of Zionism is deeply ingrained into Israeli society.[/quote]

Zionism is the belief that Jews should be able to live in peace in their homeland - the one Jewish homeland in the world. If anything, as a Jew, I feel more supportive of Israel and Zionism in the wake of 10/7 and the unbridled hatred it unleashed for Jews all over the world. The only thing “problematic” about Zionism is Jew haters don’t want Jews to live anywhere in peace, especially not the Arab Muslims who invaded the Levant and thought they’d suppressed / gotten rid the Jews who lived there for millennia only to find Jews returning after WWII. I don’t like Netanyahu or his government, but I’m ever more committed to Israel. [/quote]

That seems like a seriously over-simplified history of Israel, considering all the invaders over the centuries you've left out.

I'm a non-Jew and along with other non-Jews I know who oppose what Netanyahu is doing are not and never have been "Jew haters." And I'm not clear what you mean by suggesting that there has been this simmering hatred for Jews "all over the word" that has been unleashed--who specifically are you talking about? MTG? [/quote]
