“The resolution suggests that all anti-Zionism—it states—is antisemitism. That’s either intellectually disingenuous or just factually wrong,” said New York Representative Jerry Nadler, who voted present. “The authors if they were at all familiar with Jewish history & culture should know about Jewish anti-Zionism that was and is expressly not antisemitic. This resolution ignores the fact that even today, certain Orthodox Hasidic Jewish communities … have held views that are at odds with the modern Zionist conception.”

    Well you see, if they don’t support Zionism they’re not real Jews!

    — That guy, probably

      I’m guessing the opposite. I’m guessing it’s “Jews are evil and they all support genocide.”

      And considering, as Nadler pointed out, that there are Orthodox communities in the U.S. which are and always have been staunchly anti-Zionist, that’s not even true from Israel’s inception.

        Not only that, but a huge contingent of Zionists are not Jewish, and are pretty damn anti-semetic. There’s a strain of it that wanted to kick Jews out of all other countries.
