This post is meant to serve as a jumping off point. Those citations exist for a reason and we encourage you to read further. This post can only address so much.

There was so much that simply couldn’t be covered in such a short post; not to mention a breadth of research that feels like it should be must read material for this topic.

A huge thank you to willatheewisps and a.hearth.witch (on instagram) for going over this prior to posting.

Let us know in the comments if you’re interested in a post going over the origins of the Christian Zionist movement, as well as how it inspired Jewish Zionism.

Did you know that it was a “proto-Christian Zionist” Church of Scotland clergyman & author Alexander Keith who coined the phrase, “land without a people and a people without a land” in his 1843 book?

#op thank you so much for the time and energy you put into this#is there any way you could include alt text or share a link to a doc or something as well#because as many people as possible need to see this

We’ve gone ahead and put it in blog post form, though this post should have had alt text available, just as our Instagram does!

This all makes me think of another aspect of the relationship between criticism of Israel and antisemitism:

By conflating criticism of Israel with antisemitism, this situation created a reality where showing support to Israel can be seen as absolving you of antisemitism.

You’ll see it in Ben Shapiro’s judgment of who’s antisemitic or not. He’ll see someone being antisemitic, and when asked why he associates with them, he’ll say he’s not worried about their antisemitism because they support Israel. It happened with Ann Coulter. His response was “Sure, her tweets were bad, but she’s pro-Israel, so that doesn’t really matter.” This is so dangerous.

Ben Shapiro is always an extreme, but it’s not an attitude unique to him. Here in Israel I still remember right wingers treating the election of Trump as a win for Jews because they felt it’s better for the relationship between the US and Israel. Completely disregarding the horrible influence he had on the lives of Jewish people in the US and tbh even in other countries. Think how much antisemitism they had to disregard to have this attitude.

Conflating Israel with all Jews is antisemitic.

Can’t reblog this enough.

Not the way I figured it would turn out, but I learned something here.

This is called Trophic Cascade in ecology.

This was controversial when they released the wolves, as I recall. There were complaints about the wolves being dangerous to tourists, that they would actually damage the park and kill so much wildlife no one would want to go anymore.
