Israeli and Zionist influence in the USA is a purposeful choice of the American government. It allows the American government to circumvent many domestic and international laws by allowing Israeli firms to do the spying and dirty work for them. Israel is essentially a rogue state that is entirely controlled by the American intelligence apparatus (and therefore, American capital). This has created a feedback loop of constantly reinforcing settler colonialism and American economic extraction of the Middle East. If America withdrew support to Israel, this feedback loop would cease and Israel would be greatly diminished or completely collapse.

Saying Israel controls America is simply wrong, stop saying this. I will remove your post. ✌️

this is just bad analysis and it's an incredibly uncharitable interpretation of a better analysis. israel commits genocide because it's in america's interest. america just recently pulled the leash because they started messing with trump jr's business partners. it's not often you get such an obvious show of any underlying power dynamic, which is why it confuses me that this is the issue hexbear chooses to have a struggle session over

Did you willfully ignore everything you knew about Zionism when you wrote that?

sorry, let me clarify. the zionists are allowed to commit genocide because it's in america's interest. they are accorded the resources necessary to exterminate an entire population, to spread propaganda, and to educate new zionists specifically because it is in the material interest of the imperial bourgeoisie. ideology doesn't arise in a vacuum, especially the more fascist ones like zionism
