U.S. and ISRAEL IMPERIALISM - FOLLOW THE MONEY

Caitlin Johnstone

U.S. public opinion is turning hard against Israel as both parties bend over backward to send it expensive weapons and silence its critics... and U.S. public opinion is seldom good at making subtle distinctions.

A new Pew survey has found that a majority of Americans now have a negative view of Israel, with 53 percent of respondents now holding an unfavorable view of the Zionist state, up from 42 percent just three years ago.

Those of us who oppose the criminality of Israel and its western allies from the left will do all we can to keep the far right’s arguments from gaining traction, but it won’t be our fault when we fail. It will be the fault of the western governments who’ve spent all this time stomping out the civil liberties of their citizenry in the name of fighting “antisemitism” while raining military explosives on the middle east and backing the slaughter of tens of thousands of children under a Star of David flag.
