Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I am so tired of this bullshit and of Isreal's bullshit. I don't care if people think I am antisemitic because technically I am. I am in the same way I'm anti Christian, Muslim, Buddhism, Odinism and every other religion. Can we please stop using superstition as a reason to kill and hate eachother when there are plenty of good reasons to already do that or better yet just stop doing it all together.
Then you're anti-judaism, not antisemitic
Hey thanks for teaching me something new! I appreciate it.
given that almost all jews support zionism, I don't really get why people stress making this huge distinction.
Evidence, please.
Well you see, if they don’t support Zionism they’re not real Jews!
— That guy, probably
I'm guessing the opposite. I'm guessing it's "Jews are evil and they all support genocide."
And considering, as Nadler pointed out, that there are Orthodox communities in the U.S. which are and always have been staunchly anti-Zionist, that's not even true from Israel's inception.
Not only that, but a huge contingent of Zionists are not Jewish, and are pretty damn anti-semetic. There's a strain of it that wanted to kick Jews out of all other countries.
Religion isnt the reason, it's just the excuse.
The reason is money and power. It always has been.
I think the best term is "anti theocracy" and while Israel is in theory a democracy they are first and foremost a theocracy because the democracy is a right only reserved for those inside the theocratic construct.
No they are a secular democracy. Their laws are not based on Judaism. Judaism prohibits most things they do.
Israelis hate black black Jews as well. It's just a racist white ethno-state.
If they are an apartheid state with tiers of citizens, they aren't a democracy.
What are their tiers of citizens?
