Avi Shlaim, professor at Oxford University, exposes the Zionists:

There is no denying that from time to time anti-Semitism raises its ugly head in the UK, as it does in many other countries.
What is striking, however, about contemporary Britain is the use of anti-Semitism as a political tool to silence legitimate criticism of the policies and practices of the Israeli government and the collusion of members of the political establishment in this process.

A word on definitions is in order.

The Jewish philosopher Isaiah Berlin defined an anti-Semite as someone who hates Jews more than is strictly necessary.
This definition has its humorous side but it does not take us very far. A simpler definition of an anti-Semite is someone who hates Jews as Jews.

An anti-Zionist, on the other hand, is someone who opposes Israel as an exclusively Jewish state or challenges the Zionist colonial project on the West Bank.

Israeli propagandists deliberately, yes deliberately, conflate anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism in order to discredit, bully, and muzzle critics of Israel; in order to suppress free speech; and in order to divert attention from the real issues: Israeli colonialism, Israel's apartheid, its systematic violation of the human rights of Palestinians, and its denial of their right to independence and statehood. The propagandists persistently present an anti-racist movement (anti-Zionism) as a racist one (anti-Semitism).

No such thing.

Zionists forgave Steve Bannon's antiSemitism because he supports Israel. Bannon wants to fuse white Nazi types with Jews to fight Muslims, just like Ihor Kolomoyskyi wants in the Ukraine. He is dual Israel citizen. I guess you approve of this doctrine coming out of Israel to fuse White Supremacist with Zionist Supremacists to fight Muslims? Is that right Strategist?

Fuck your Paleban. Looks like their latest Death Worship fad is to ram cars. Before it was random stabbings. Before that it was suicide bombings.

"What will those little assholes think of next."

You still didn't answer my question, Strategist. You want to fuse with the Nazi's? You say you are a Zionist.
