"Progressives should not make the same mistake that Ernst Thälmann made in 1932. The leader of the German Communist Party, Thälmann saw mainstream liberals as his enemies, and so the center and left never joined forces against the Nazis. Thälmann famously said that ‘some Nazi trees must not be allowed to overshadow a forest’ of social democrats, whom he sneeringly called ‘social fascists.’
After Adolf Hitler gained power in 1933, Thälmann was arrested. He was shot on Hitler’s orders in Buchenwald concentration camp in 1944."
The current system in the US represents White Christians and Jews. Everyone else can get fucked. The fact US citizen aid worker have been killed in Israel with presidential oversight exemplifies the racial and religious exemptions to human rights.
US citizens have been killed by our nominal ally with no repercussions.
I don’t think that the state being Zionist means that it actually represents the views of American Jews. The state has a 0% tolerance for anti-zionism, but a significant portion of the Jewish population is anti-zionist (“not in our name” and all that).
