Things don’t seem to be breaking for Israel like they hoped it would after the 10/7 butchery. They are responding with their own butchery, and much of the world is not down with it, except for the “Israel can do no wrong” crowd here in the USA. Short term thinking by Israel. I do like that a number of commentators are warning Israel not to respond in the hysterical way America responded to 9/11.

What are the chances I wonder that this is the beginning of the end for Israel? Yet they still have nukes. Meanwhile. America is their enabler. Personally, I don’t give a shite who owns that sh#thole.

What the Israelis don’t seem to understand is that you can be completely justified in your actions but that they still can be counterproductive.

From the NYT: “ Gazan Civilians, Under Israeli Barrage, Are Being Killed at Historic Pace.” Once again, I’m not going to debate Israel’s justification, just the unintended consequences of its tactics. America thought it was justified in taking out the Taliban in 2001, and look how that ended. By the way, when the pro Israel Neocon NYT posts a story like that, it says a lot.

From the NYT: “ A Fraught Question for the Moment: Is Anti-Zionism Always Antisemitic?”. This is only a question because the Zionists made it so to smear anyone who questions the establishment of a Jewish state on Palestinian land. It was the reason I started this thread, because I worried about Judaism being brought down by anti-Zionism. Fortunately I think Judaism will survive the end of Israel.

Is there a rise in anti-semitism among the young? This is what the Zionist scheme to equate Zionism with Judaism is reaping.

Some commentator got in “trouble” comparing what is happening in Gaza to the Warsaw Ghetto uprising in 1943. Not nearly the same but there are some similarities.

I realize this is a touchy subject but I think it must be discussed. Certainly with all the criticism of Islam, other religions should not be off limits. My point is, if criticism of Israel is considered anti-Semitic, then the fate of Judaism may be being tied too closely to the fate of Israel, and they are not the same from my perspective. Not even Jews were unanimous on the wisdom of a Jewish state. Anyone want to venture an opinion? This was 15 years ago, and what I was worried about may have started. Zionism may be dragging down Judaism.
