In its coverage of Jewish Voice for Peace’s Trump Tower protest, Fox News obscured the Jewish identity of protesters—while echoing antisemitic conspiracy theories and racist tropes.

Being anti-Semitic and pro-Israel is already a cognitive dissonance overload. Finding out that actual Jewish people don’t like war and genocide is way too much to process.
I’d argue that most anti-Semites are probably fine with a Jewish ethnostate if it means no Jews in whatever country they’re from.
The inconsistency lies with their application of who is “ethnic” and needs to “go back where they came from.” They ignore the fact that white people are not indigenous to North America.
Obligatory Sartre quote regarding anti-Semites:
Not really. Anti semites want Jews to go away. Israel is away. There is no inherent contradiction in them supporting Israel. In fact, there is significant ideological alignment between anti-Semitism and Zionism, as both tend towards ethnononationalism.
