--Minor punctuation/grammar changes added by me // During this whole video he makes a chart about it, but it ends up being a scribbly mess, so I won’t add what it looks like lol.

The creator is responding to a comment that’s says: Man folks need to learn the difference between Jews and Zionist.

Jersey.noah: That’s true, so let’s do a little lesson on Zionism shall we? So, for every 1 Jewish Zionist, there are about 30 Christian Zionists, making this the dominant group of Zionists.

Now, in the US alone, there are 10 million Christian members of Christian United for Israel – the Zionist group. There are 7.5 million American Jews alive; and they’re about 30 million Christian Zionists across the world, which is double the Jewish population across the world.

Now, this might be confusing, because Israel uses this symbol [draws the Star of David] and so do Jews, but while Israel claims to represent, and care for, and support this group [circles 7.5 mil American Jews group], the really have the interest of this group [circled 30 mil Christian Zionists], and that is who they represent.

Just in case you would like a closer look! [shows off scribbles] /id]

With the arrival of Mike Johnson as speaker, End-of-Days crazies are now openly dominant in the congressional GOP, creating another acute danger to American democracy and American institutions. Johnson's politics and his adherence to this group was essentially not reported upon by America's media, in a massive failure of their ability to comprehend their own politics.

Edward Luce: It is hard to know where to begin with Mike Johnson, avatar of biblical conservatism, and the new Republican Speaker of the House. But let’s get the basic facts out of the way. Johnson won the gavel for three reasons. The most important was exhaustion. Republicans spent three increasingly embarrassing weeks flailing around for a consensus figure in a party held hostage by extremists over a decision requiring near unanimity. What I call the kamikaze caucus, led by Matt Gaetz, defenestrated Kevin McCarthy with the single member “motion to vacate” on October 3. They then blocked Steve Scalise, McCarthy’s number two, as insufficiently firebrand. Jim Jordan, who was the hardliners’ fantasy choice, was then duly upended in three consecutive votes by a group of so-called moderate Republicans, though that word has virtually no meaning any longer. Finally, an exhausted caucus voted without dissent to make Johnson speaker on Wednesday as the last man standing. The second reason was that Johnson had Donald Trump’s enthusiastic support. Jordan enjoyed Trump’s backing too but that was before the fatigue set in. The third, which builds on the first two, is that Johnson is liked by his colleagues. His demeanour is sunny and collegiate. From a temperamental point of view, Johnson is as far from the Gaetzs, Jordans, Marjorie Taylor Greenes and Lauren Boeberts as you get nowadays.

Yet on substance, Johnson is more than a match for his most shameless controversy-seeking colleagues. He is the most extreme figure to become US Speaker since the civil war. It was Johnson who rallied the 147 Republican members of the House to vote against certification of the election on January 6, 2021. Rather than chant “fraud!” or “stolen election!”, which were the Gaetz-Trump-Jordan (and so on) battle cries, Johnson got more than 100 of his colleagues to sign on to a Texas federal court amicus brief alleging the “constitutional infirmity” of the elections. Johnson had the tactical nous and temperament to dress exactly the same cause in a legal figleaf, which was that the early voting and mail-in ballot pandemic voting options provided by the swing states were unconstitutional. His goal was the same. But he made it seem respectable. The courts treated Johnson’s brief with the short shrift that it deserved. But without Johnson, Trump’s bid to overturn the electoral college would have attracted far fewer votes. No wonder Trump is a Johnson fan.

For a fascinating breakdown of his January 6 role, read this New York Times account. The result is that we now have a Speaker who is capable of being far smarter than Trump’s growing roll-call of plea-bargaining lawyers in finding ways to overturn a democratic election. If Johnson survives the next 13 months — a big conditional given the party’s kamikaze frame of mind — he will be Speaker when the next presidential certification happens in January 2025. I don’t need to spell out what Trump will want Johnson to do for him if he loses again. It is a safe bet that Johnson would do what he could to oblige. That is the most sobering fact about America’s new second in line to be president. But we cannot overlook Johnson’s Christian fundamentalism. He is a sincere biblical literalist. As an active legal ally of the Southern Baptist Convention, and also as a Louisiana and now Washington legislator, Johnson has a 25-year record of Christian extremism. He believes homosexuality is unnatural and should be illegal, he supports a federal outlawing of abortion in any circumstances (as co-author of the “life begins at conception” bill before this Congress), he believes the US is a Christian nation founded on biblical principles, and he is a “Christian Zionist” supporter of the politically philo-Semitic and theologically antisemitic view that the Book of Revelation will be fulfilled in modern-day Israel. Remember, that involves the second coming of Jesus in a prophesied rapture in which the righteous will ascend to heaven and the rest, including the Jews, will be slaughtered.

Some people would call Johnson a Christian nationalist. I prefer the term “end-of-days Republican”. At any rate, a triumphant Johnson on Wednesday told the house that God had ordained this moment and that his wife had spent the past two weeks “on her knees”. I confess to being puzzled by that last reference. Literally nobody anticipated Johnson would be Speaker until Tuesday of this week. Yet apparently his wife had been praying for it all along. Rana, don’t worry, I am not planning to quiz you about American far-right theology. My question is whether this GOP extremism, albeit in lamb’s clothing, will destroy the Republican party or the US republic. It has to be one or the other.

Im not Jewish but i love my Jews. Like only thing stopping a conversion is i cant believe in one god.

Still anti zionist. Unless you are an israeli citizen and a zionist you are almost certainly a white christian

just say you fucking hate Jewish people you fucking insensitive piece of shit. god

Some of the bravest people i know personally and some of the bravest people in the United States are the anti-zionist jews marching in the tens of thousands in cities all over the country against Israel's barbaric bombing of Gaza right now. You live in an extremist right wing echo chamber that inexorably ties Judaism to Zionism and the Israeli state.

[papirouge]

what's with people saying that "jews killed Jesus" is antisemitic or a false statement?

Read the Bible. The pharisees attempted for quite some time to kill Jesus and when they realized doing this themselves would damage their image, they resorted to campaigning at the roman authorities to arrest Jesus

Even in today's legislation this would be deemded like a proxy killing. Stop letting your fear of being called an antisemite turn your into denialism. Get real.

As someone who is formerly Christian, I will concur with @inklingm8. If none or BARELY any of the protestors are attacking the mega churches (like that incident at Lakewood in Houston, Texas), are these Christian Zionists really for Israel? And when they are attacked who receives the most attention - Christians or Jews? I guarantee you the attention will be on the Christian so they can validate their faith in G-d if that were to happen.

Let me explain why a Christian would be Zionist: Jesus' Second Coming and converting Jews to Christianity. That's it.

A giant trojan horse.

I will also clarify based on experience: There is no respect for the culture, only pure butchering and nit picking for the sake of impressionism and favouring doctrine; apologetics, basically. They don't know the significance of the cedar, Purim, or even why Jews observe Hanukkah. They don't even know the Maccabean revolt existed because "If it's not in the Bible then I'm not obligated to believe it!" excuse. (I'm not kidding.)

On top of that, they don't even talk about Judaism's sages, prophets or even prominent historical figures UNLESS it involves their Messiah/favours their doctrines! (Pastor John Hagee of Cornerstone Church San Antonio, Texas is and excellent example of such!)

They talk about Paul because he talked about Jesus.

They talk about Isaiah because they assume he's talking about Jesus.

They talk about R. Kaduri because they assume he encountered Jesus.

They talk about P.M. Netanyahu, because he's tolerant towards Western Christianity.

They would rather talk more to Messianic rabbis (such as R. Schneider of Toledo, Ohio) rather than Orthodox rabbis from Israel (example R. Moshe Dror).

Heck, Holy Land Experience's main attraction is Jesus...

So long as the Jew is tolerable to ONE SINGLE REBBE from the first century, they are worth the sacrifice/love of a Christian. Alas, I guarantee you if you do otherwise, you're casted to the wayside. I have seen very few Christians rebuke anti-zionist Christians for saying awful things such as: "You deserved it, ever since the second temple collapsed!" or "See what happen when you reject Jesus!" when October 7th happened. Had this group of Zionist Christians been more active at the forefront, there wouldn't be a sharp divide between Christians and Jews right now.

Now, does this speak for every Christian Zionist? Absolutely not. There are some Christians who genuinely love Israel for Israel and allow G-d to have the final say (I've spoken to a handful of them). However, what am I saying is that they can do better at being involved with the Zionist wave if they wish to be there for their friends in the Holy Land.

TLDR: Just because they call themselves "Friends of Israel" doesn't mean they'll act like real friends. If you really care for Israel/ Zion, put your religion aside or on the altar and LISTEN to the Jew with impartial ears! I did it... and now I have a family because of it. Jesus shouldn't be your only reason to care about Israel.

Most Christian Zionists are Evangelical & Fundamentalist Christians; however, the ideology has adherents within all Christian denominations [including Mormonism]. 

They exist globally; this is not solely an American phenomenon. 

The largest Zionist organization in America is a Christian organization. 

The largest Zionist organization has more Christian members than there are Jewish Americans alive.

As of 2021, there are roughly 7.5 million American Jews. Christians United for Israel alone has over 10 million Christian members.

 There more than 30 million Christian Zionists in the United States alone. That’s double the population of Jews worldwide.

Antisemitism is the lifeblood of the Christian Zionist. Substituting care for Jews with nationalism [based in belief in the coming Rapture], Christian Zionists wield antisemitism as a tool.T

They use antisemitism in the Diaspora to entice Jews to move under the guise of ‘safety’, propelling & furthering their agenda of gathering all Jews in the Holy Land.

Christian Zionists are happy to promote antisemitic propaganda, misinformation, & legislation in order to achieve this goal.

I know I'm gonna regret posting this, but I just can't not say something: I'm so sick of people who are actively contributing to the ongoing oppression of and violence against Palestinians calling themselves "pro-Palestinian."

In the same way that so many people in the anti-abortion movement are actually pro forced birth rather than pro-child, there are a lot of you who aren't pro-Palestinian, you're just violently antisemitic or in it for yourselves.

If you aren't:

Also angry with the other countries that abuse their Palestinian populations, refuse them citizenship, keep them in displaced person camps under horrific conditions, and/or close their borders entirely to them;

In support of genuine grassroots movements that aim to create some kind of stability, peace, and safety through diplomatic relationships and community building, because that's ""normalization"";

Willing to condemn antisemitism in the diaspora, which helps fuels right-wing rhetoric in Israel;

Willing to shut down lies, propaganda, and disinformation even if it "supports" Palestinians in theory, because lying repeatedly associates the Palestinian movement with lying and makes it harder for survivors to tell their actual stories and be believed outside of the far left movements (and also the truth is bad enough - there's no need to lie);

Willing to focus on practical problem solving over political posturing, especially when it will save Palestinian lives;

Willing to condemn Hamas, which started this most recent disaster, steals aid meant for civilians, uses civilians as human shields, and has been torturing dissenters for years;

Willing to work with Israeli leftists who hate their current government and want peace and full equality for Arab Israelis and their Palestinian neighbors, and also have the best shot at making that change happen; and/or,

Willing to learn about Palestinians as living human beings and value their lives over using them as a political cudgel, whatever that looks like on the ground;

.............then maybe you're more interested in looking radical and jerking off to some fantastical version of The Revolution, and/or hurting Jews than you are in promoting peace, safety, dignity, and self-determination for Palestinians.

Like seriously with "friends" like these, do they even need enemies??

Anyway you should call out the Israeli government for its very real abuses of Palestinians and nothing in this post should be construed otherwise. But if you genuinely care and aren't just in it for internet cool points or leftist cred or feeding your Jew-hate boner or whatever, you gotta prioritize solutions that have a realistic shot at short-term relief and long-term possibility over whatever fits some idealistic goal that will only ever end with more dead Palestinians.

If people could stop reblogging from trad fascists like Greater-than-the-sword or Prolifeproliberty that’d be a huge improvement.

hi jumblr, I'm looking for good resources on intersectionality in the conext of pro-Palestine and pro-peace spaces, specifically on being inclusive of Jewish activists and avoiding antisemitism and antisemitic dogwhistles.

I've found some promising stuff, but also a frustrating amount of things framed as "protecting yourself from accusations of antisemitism" that don't have any examples of actual antisemitism for activists and teachers to educate about and avoid.

[kelluinox]

I "love" how leftists are saying "but this time, this time for sure jews are evil! This time for sure!" And think they're any different from every single other group that has tried to exterminate us over the course of history

[beskad]

i'm not gonna hold your hand when I say this

if you still think Donald Trump is a good candidate for US president (much less the best possible candidate), you are either unbelievably ignorant and have been living under a fucking rock, or you simply have chosen not to care about the batshit insane shit he says and harm he does.

I've seen it said before and I wholeheartedly agree:

maybe individual Trump voters aren't all, themselves, raging white supremacists, misogynists, and queerphobic bigots.

but they've all decided that those things aren't a dealbreaker for them, and that's just as bad

and I don't want to hear "well, both sides are bad"

that's like saying "well, both of those things are a weapon" when one person is pointing a bb gun at you and the other person has a fucking nuke

Even funnier than the tweet is the seething cope in the replies at the fact that Jesus was a Jew from West Bank. 💀

[handweavers]

zionists claiming arabs destroyed the temple vs antisemitic christians claiming jewish people killed jesus when both things were done by the roman empire lol
