Let’s not conflate. I am against the current policies of the crazy Netanyahu government, not against “Israel” or the Israeli people or “Jews” (I am partly Jewish myself and have relatives who survived the Holocaust)

Judaism is a multi-thousand year old anti-fragile religion, and Netanyahu’s crazy war is only two years old. Judaism will outlive this madness. And neither Netanyahu nor the ultra religious crazies that are part of his government have a claim to Judaism.

I am also pro Palestine, but anti Hamas and anti Islamic extremism. Maybe these don’t square for you but they square for me and plenty of others.
