During the course of The First Intifada (in Arabic literally, (“throwing off) that began in late 1987, Palestinian children throwing rocks at IDF tanks was reported in the turned backward, upside down, inside out distortion machine of US corporate media as acts of terrorism, while IDF soldiers gunning down rock-bearing children was reported as acts of self-defense.
At the time, the majority of US Jews took the reports to be credible. We had, since birth, been propagandized that all Arabs had been raised, since birth, to act as a Goliath vanguard of genocidal maniacs, determined to crush to extinction little, besieged Israel David into the soil of the Levant.
A new order of the Third Reich had risen and they wore keffiyehs; as opposed to the reality: a genocidally prone death cult brooded within the darkness of the tormented soul of the Zionist enterprise. To wit, the calculated slaughter and planned starvation of Palestinian children in the (ongoing) Gaza genocidal campaign. Hence, the unfolding imperial overreach of the Greater Israel agenda…that includes the present war of choice being waged against the people of Iran and Lebanon.
Outside of highly insular (circling the drain of history) Israel, yet way too slowly, we Jews are coming to grips with the reality: the conflation of Zionism and Judaism, given Israel's perpetual crimes against humanity, in combination with the insidious control that the Zionist lobby exerts over the Western political class, not only foments anti-semitism -- but the system of belief is, in itself, inherently anti-semitic.
In short, it is not a good look for we Jews to be associated with, both the crackbrained notion of Jewish supremacy that is honeycombed throughout the psychical architecture of the Zionist state.
We Jews must embrace a psychical Intifada and throw off the litany of lies that enable the abomination of the Zionist state’s perpetual reign of terror.

For every Jewish person who is "anti-Israel", there are at least 10 Muslims who are pro-Israel. Why? Because Muslims outnumber Jews in this world by 133/1.
The most important questions are routinely disregarded by the anti-Israelites (including the Jewish ones). 1. If the allegation of Israeli "genocide" were based in reality (rather than political convenience) how is it explained that Israeli Arabs are still voluntarily enlisting in the IDF? 2. What makes the United Nations immune from bias? There are after all, 57 Islamic nations as UN members, with about another 50 with Muslims as their largest minority. 3. Since when has political thought among Jewish people been consistent? (If there were no conflict of opinion among Jews, THAT would be odd). 4. Perhaps most importantly, how would the Jewish nation remain viable without defending itself (or alternatively without surrendering / extinguish-ment)?

AuthorIsidor Farash, that is utter bullshit, even by the standards of hasabara-reeking Zionist trolls. Give it up, Israel is in the process of imploding and non-asshole Jews regard your Zionist assholosity to be utter repugnant to Judaism.

Isidor Farash because becoming a Muslim or a Christian is much easier due to the anti tribal mentality these religions have! They proclaim a universal lineage rather than a blood lineage. You can easily be accepted into Christianity and Islam. Therefore, become a Muslim or a christian, problem solved since you are not really a practicing jew!

There is a lot of weight to many of the things you say in your post.
However, one angle is missing, which is that "identity" or cultural association or allegiance as we are discussing it is not a "natural" or "biological" "reality," it is cultural and, in that way, an inner or internalized psycho-social reality.
Compared to many Arab states Israel is strong (in various ways, levels) - just that influences sensibilities and involuntary reactions, including subconsciously. (This type of phenomenon is more pronounced in obvious ways when you consider how Piaget's "stages of development" might still apply in a modified way for adult outcomes.)
Funny that we are talking about "Israel" as a "non-Arab" state - because it is a European occupation of Palestine, where previously Muslims, Christians and Arab Jews were living in relative harmony prior to occupation by Europeans.
Also, living side-by-side with virtually any identity group offers a view that is partial to the group - they cease to be "monstrous," but are just everyday "normal people." Daily convivence and proximity breads familiarity. Many Israeli Arabs are assimilated to popular Israeli culture. (Another related psychological effect is called the Stockholm Syndrome, which is a short-term exposure-type of reaction, which makes it very obvious, while long-term exposure has a subtler process, while still having a surprising outcome when considered in an isolated manner.)
Question: Why were some Third Reich military personnel (from the lowest to the highest ranks) secretly Jewish?
There is even a probability that Hitler himself was one quarter Rothschild - of course the Rothschilds being a very prominent European Jewish family; especially the British line was instrumental in the Balfour Declaration.

My fear is that anti-semitism will be the inevitable result of exempting the Zionist regime from every rule of human decency. Netanyahu is using Jews as human shields for his aggressive Greater Israel expansion aims and we need more to say "not in our name" in extremely visible ways. This is the best defense I know. What I don't know how to fix is the nutty 'Christian' Zionists. Most Zionists are not Jews. They just want Jews to bring about the end of the world thinking this is how to make Jesus return.

Névine Salvadé those voices have been there but they’ve been suppressed in media because they don’t fit the Zionist agenda, and they are considered a major threat to it for obvious reasons.

Névine Salvadé Tragically true. 78 years. Three generations of torturous suffocation of an entire nation of people. A people that have been, for the last 3,000 years, the dutiful and loyal caretakers of the places of the utmost religious and spiritual value to the three largest and widest faiths of the world. Whether one is conservative or secular, deeply religious or completely agnostic, one cannot but accept that affiliation with religion is an essential facet of human consciousness as far back as we know of. The beautiful land and the denizens of Palestine, so cherished by us all, have never suffered more than right here, right now, in OUR lifetime. Shame on us!

As with all populations, sentiments swing over time based on reality and propaganda, with religious messaging and justifications being one of the more forceful genres of propaganda.

The image appears to be a screenshot of an article from the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, published on March 26, 2026.
The article features an interview with Arielle Angel, the editor-in-chief of the American magazine Jewish Currents.
Key points mentioned in the visible text include:
- Arielle Angel's Stance: She expresses a belief that Israelis have committed genocide and aims to "spur the divorce" between U.S. Jews and Israel.
- Anti-Zionist Movement: The article discusses her role in a growing anti-Zionist movement seeking to rebuild the Jewish-American establishment.
- Background: Angel grew up in a "very Zionist" household in Miami before becoming the editor of Jewish Currents in 2018, leading the publication toward more critical coverage of Israeli politics.
