Before turning in (early blood work preparing for tomorrow's chemo), every day is a revelation on this platform. The self-assurance that accompanies the most blatant, ridiculous displays of ignorance and mendacity here is extraordinary. Still, let's review:
1. Zionism is the ideological movement of Jewish national revival. Jews have not been zionists for 2500 years. In fact, zionism has never even demonstrably been the largest political movement among world Jewry.
2. Zionism has been weaponized by Israel, most egregiously over the past two years, as the generator of Jewish supremacy (from Israel's nationality law to settler violence in the WB to the genocide). The basic assumption is that if Jewish supremacy in Israel is not guaranteed (and Jewish exceptionalism outside Israel), Jews will be slaughtered en masse. While antisemitism is on the rise, there is no basis for this assumption other than the guarantee of Jewish supremacism or exceptionalism.
3. Israel and its supporters have set about accusing (and "monitoring") any and all critics of Jewish supremacy of antisemitism. Lately this has grown to encapsulate antizionist Jews. Antizionism is not devoted to the destruction of Israel. It demands that Israel reject Jewish supremacy as its raison d'etre and stop the illegal occupation of the Palestinian Territories (ICJ decision). Any other interpretation is an intentional manipulation.
Pretty simple, right?
