What's it called when Christians explain to their Jewish neighbors that any criticism of the Israeli government is actually anti-Semitism?
Not The Onion
Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!
It's antisemitism. Christian Zionism is pure antisemitism and always have been.
It's not just Christians. I've been called anti semetic by some right wing extened family at holiday meals; and by some teachers at the Jewish day school I attended.

I had my money on the “we’re supporting Israel because it’s safer” article
Me too, but that's mainly because I read it just last night so it's fresh in my mind 😁
One of my favourite things about it isn't even in the article text itself:
I, for one, fully support Israel because it seems like you get in less trouble for that.
Some may call me a coward for this decision. To this, I can only say the following: If a coward is a person who avoids taking a difficult stance on topics for personal expediency, then “coward” is a badge I will gladly wear, again and again and again.

Never heard of Lara Urban (badass name btw!) before, but I love her act of defiant solidarity! ✊️❤️
