I apologize for my ignorance, but I don’t understand your response. Would you please explain? (I believe that the Israeli structure is socialist) Who are the usual suspects?

You are correct Israel had a lot of socialist founders.

And its Deep State and courts are profoundly leftists.

But the Israeli people managed to largely free themselves of those shackles and are slowly ripping it out.

Obama and Biden struggled mightily and boldly tried to interfere with the Israelis ridding themselves of socialism, including direct intervention in their elections.

Well, I read Netanyahu as trying to shore up and expand his Jewish and Israel with Christian and USA alliance. It smells like very good international relations, as well as truly a fundamental defense of Western Civilization. I’m in favor of all of that, but I see its several utilitarian bits as advantageous for most everybody.

Except, here on FR we have some folks I affectionately refer to as The Allahu Akhbar Chorus, who, when presented anything that has a Jew within spitting distance find a way to Blame Tha Jooooos (TM), Israel or Netanyahu. Reasonable, metered and occasional opposition to Israeli policy is fair enough. I have mine, certainly. But among “the usual suspects”, you can get anti-Jew posts at rates like 88% of everything they post. The guy who was at 90% eventually caught the Zot when he sided with the Mullahs against Trump. We still have guys here who have rated up to 88% anti-Jew posts.

So, I knew in advance that this topic would attract a few of them. Indeed, I’ll go look to confirm, but I think one did show up as predicted.

Anyhow, AM YISRAEL CHAI!!!

;-)
