Please explain the media and political hate from the US regarding Israel

Remember what all journalists are taught:
'Comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.'

The Palestinians are the poor, oppressed 'other'.
The Jews in Israel are the comfortable oppressors.

I understand the historical context of the land they control, but why is their a BDS movement some of our Congressional members support? Also why is the EU backing groups that support BDS?

Just trying to better understand all of the Israel hate. If it's too long for a post, then I'd appreciate a well explained link to read. Thanks!

The Left and Islamists have one major thing in common... They believe western culture is an unfair and oppressive product of white-dominated colonialism and must be brought to heel or destroyed.

Islamists want us destroyed while the Left wants us to become some egalitarian utopia, and this is where the two diverge. BUT, the Left is so full of hate and rage they don't care about using a monster to reach their goal. They believe they can control the monster once the monster realizes how awesome egalitarianism is.

Well Israel is simply another product of unfair oppressive western culture, and Palestinians can be useful by exploiting their victimhood, just as the Left does with every other "identity" they can turn into a victim.

It's weaponized victimhood.

Now why precisely do Omar and Tlaib hate Israel? Because they're massive Islamists. That's simple fact.

Why is the EU backing BDS groups? Because they want to see the US brought down. They think it's unfair that the US has the power it does and they don't. And Israel, by proxy, is merely a reflection of powerful western culture, and the biggest ally of the US.

There isn't much "Western" about Israel, if you know anything about Israel. Israel doesn't like the West.

and the left is just as beholden to Israel as the right.

41 Democrats went on an AIPAC-sponsored trip to Israel

Looks Westernized to me

Israel hate

Disagreeing with someone’s actions isn’t hate.

And WW2 is a shopworn excuse at this point.

Eastern European Marxists, which were predominantly Jewish. Migrated to the US, before and after WW2. Theyve become ensconced in Media and Finance.

Google the USS Liberty, that’s a good start. Israel is not our ally, we are their military R&D suppliers and nothing more.

Honestly, I am shocked and amazed at the hate toward Israel. From members of congress and members of this board.

Israel is an apartheid state, and very far from the Democracy they claim to be. Our elected leaders are all well paid by pro-Israel supporters, and effectively try to convince us Americans otherwise.

18 of the 120 members of the Israeli Knesset (i.e. Parliament) are Arab. Arabs serve on the Israeli Supreme Court. 20% of the population in Israel is Arab. Show me where the Apartheid is because the over 2 million arabs in Israel have full voting rights, can serve in government, and own their own land, serve in the military, and own businesses.

The Palestinians want to kill the Israeli Arabs perhaps some research or visiting the country will shed some light into the crap you are espousing.
