It’s not anti-Semitism when you’re lying down with lepers
Unqualified supporters of Israel would do better to question some Jews’ identification with Europe’s most nationalist, xenophobic and Islamophobic groups.

“This war has advantages; Europe is emptying out,” an important yet
superficial public figure told me, expressing her brand of Zionist
satisfaction. “Once again it has been proved that Israel is the only
solution,” she said, patting Israelis on the back and hurting me in the
process.
My colleague Anshel Pfeffer confirmed what I’m talking about in a wise and accurate piece. He quoted Jewish Agency head Natan Sharansky, who prophesied in Zionist fashion: “We are seeing the beginning of the end of Jewish history in Europe.” Save for the typical hysteria, accepted demagogy and Zionist opportunism, I can’t understand how some people can’t understand that this equation has very few variables, and all are known.
