Let me start by saying that I am in no way trying to be racist or anti-Semitic. I truly do not understand the mental gymnastics that these people are doing. I’ve been wondering for quite a while is how can America have so many white christian nationalists, and people who are completely freaking racist about EVERYONE not white christians, but all the while they seem to support Israel which is a Jewish state. Which goes completely against the white christian nationalist movement. How do these people reconciliate those two things? Are they just complete hypocrites in their beliefs?
Besides the other answers here; Israel and USA also share a colonialist history.
Both are nations established on other peoples land, after genociding said people.
Manifest Destiny is the belief that you are not just entitled to steal the land of “inferior people”, but it is going to happen no matter what. Doesn’t this sound a lot like zionism?
Israel is the only country, except for the US, that is build on racial chauvanism, genocide and expansionism.
