“The resolution suggests that all anti-Zionism—it states—is antisemitism. That’s either intellectually disingenuous or just factually wrong,” said New York Representative Jerry Nadler, who voted present. “The authors if they were at all familiar with Jewish history & culture should know about Jewish anti-Zionism that was and is expressly not antisemitic. This resolution ignores the fact that even today, certain Orthodox Hasidic Jewish communities … have held views that are at odds with the modern Zionist conception.”

    The fuck are you talking about? Did the US topple the Taliban? Last I checked, Afghanistan is still a country, and it’s still run by the Taliban. How is that in any way analogous to Israel? Also, not for nothing, but the US has indiscriminately killed a lot of people in the Middle East, but nothing I would categorize as a genocide.

      And Palestine will still exist when the white supremacist settler-colonialist state squatting on it is dismantled. You know… Palestine? That place that has been home to Jewish people since before Jesus?

      So, again, Clyde - do have something other than white supremacism apologetics to offer?

        You’ve lost me. How is Palestine analogous to Palestine? The Israeli leadership will literally die before they cede control of the nation to the Palestinian Authority.

        I don’t know who the fuck Clyde is, or why you seem to think anything I’ve said is white supremacy, but it makes me doubt your grasp on reality and wonder if I’m wasting my time on you.
