Just for historical accuracy, there actually were Jews in the Nazi party. Cryptojews of course, but still.

That’s a rather unfair comparison tbh. The main reason why the Arab List is an impossible coalition partner for Likud is that they’re – obviously – antizionist and pro-Palestinian, not that they’re Arabs.

Yeah, because pre-war Germany was the epitome of evil colonialism lol

Jews don’t control Hollywood. There just happen to be lots of Jews there.

I don’t know how they’re going to transform, but the point is that, contrary to your assertion, Muslims in American are not responsible for the actions of Muslims elsewhere in the world.

I already said they’re not responsible. So what? Life is unfair, so you better get used to it.

The point is, that crying about Islamophobia and policing people with thought crime laws is not going to make these Muslims any friends. Quite to the contrary, even if Islamophobia would be policed as rigidly as anti-semitism, then people might keep their mouth shut, but behind the surface they’d hate them even more for messing with their right to free speech. This is what’s currently happening with Jews after all.

1. Overwhelming support is not unanimous support.

Semantics.

2. It’s interesting that you are agreeing with JeffB that all Jews are responsible for the actions of some Jews. I, on the other hand, cannot accept that Jewish people in, say, a Jewish grocery store in Paris are legitimate targets for murder because of the actions of a supremacist “Jewish State”.

No. What you don’t seem to understand is that I’m not making a moral judgment, I’m simply stating what will happen. No matter what you and I think about it, Jews WILL get targeted because of zionist policies. End of story. So if they want to protect themselves, they’d better do something to make muslims stop hating them. Like abandoning zionism and denouncing Israel.

Let’s call it what it is. These “donations” are nothing else than open bribery.

And are there any billionaires (of any religion or ethnicity) who are involved in the presidential race who are anti-Zionist, who want Israel to become a state of its citizens, all its citizens, rather than just the Jewish ones?

Billionnaires seldom donate money out of the good of their heart. So, cui bono? What does a non-Palestinian billionnaire gain from bribing a politician to support a pro-Palestinian foreign agenda? Right, nothing.

So, how many billionnaires of Palestinian descent are there in America? To be frank, I don’t know any. In contrast, there are dozens of Jewish billionnaires who are only too eager to spend money to advance the “shared Jewish enterprise” of Israel.

So, there you have it. In the end, everything boils down to money. Jews have it, Palestinians don’t. This is why the situation is like this in the first place.

Islamophobic Joe Six-Pack isn’t going to give two sh*ts that Mooslims in Amurrika fund moderate mosques “back where they came from” or founded some other type of Islam. If it were as simple as that, you wouldn’t be making the assertion I quoted below.

Ok but they’re going to magically transform into muslim lovers if you just cry loud enough about Islamophobia, or how should I take this?

Thing is, Jews don’t collectively support Israel.

Please. All kinds of studies show that diaspora Jews overwhelmingly support Israel. Besides, can you even name one influential Jewish organization that is explicitly anti-zionist?

Everyone is entitled to fear or hate anyone. And this is the crux of the problem. Being liked by people is not a basic right. So if you want to stop people from hating you, then the common sense response would be to suck up to them. I.e. to show them you mean no harm and to distance yourself from people who do want to harm them.

But instead, people like the author complain about Islamophobia on the internet and simply demand that people like them. Is it really a wonder that this does not exactly improve their relations?

how are Muslim Americans in Arizona they supposed to stop Muslims elsewhere in the world from doing bad things?

Good question. Considering most of them are recent immigrants, maybe they could use their assets to fund moderate mosques in their home countries.

Or even break away from mainstream Islam and found some kind of reform Islam, analog to those of Judaism and Christianity.

If anything, the bad behaviour of Israeli Jews should trigger reactions against Israelis or Zio-supremacists, not against random Jewish citizens of countries around the world.

I don’t disagree, but as long as Jews collectively support Israel, they’re just asking for repercussions.

This really only sounds baffling if you assume these people to have a universal morality. Once you realize that everything they say or do is guided by the question “Is it good for the Jews?”, then their behavior really is completely logical.
