So this is a thing that's been happening in "the Holy Land" of late. While the dude quoted above is an extremist dillweed, the "custom" he's referring to is quite real for some Haredi men during Sukkot. Yes, it's a minority & no, it in no way reflects the customs or feelings of all Jews or Israelis, but it bears sharing because Western media is on a virtual blackout about this kind of thing when promoting their 24/7 support-Israel/obliterate Palestine tour. Two minutes after seeing it, this popped up in my feed:

First of all: The Trumps don't look all that stoked to be honorary members of the "chosen people," being that they're Nazis and whatnot. Check out their uncomfortable mugs ffs. Secondly, imagine going this hard in the paint for a country where it's literally a tradition to SPIT on people for merely having a different faith. I'll refer you to my previous article about Israel's war crimes driving antisemitism worldwide but let's just say things like this don't help. And then when their leaders do speak out about it, what's foremost on their minds?

"Acceptable" & "horrible" are antonyms, bud. Gonna have to pick one. |
Tourism. Fucking tourism. Money. Protecting an "image." Not the denigration & violation of a people existing peacefully & minding their business, no. The concern that it might take a few bucks out of the country's pockets overshadows that. Methinks their real concern lies with who is funding their little genocide: so-called Christian nations like the U.S. and UK. Can't have incidents like this drawing too much backlash lest the tide turn against their slaughter of Palestinians & we tighten the purse strings. They've got a sweet deal now as it is with our nation of brainwashed Evangelicals gobbling up their pastor's ramblings every Sunday about some mythical Christian-Jewish alliance. "Israel is for the Jews and the Jews are for Israel because the Bible says so." Well here's what these folks think of your Bible, patriots. {Spitting noises}
This, as the U.S. is literally deporting law-abiding immigrants for peacefully protesting Israel's actions and our government monitors their social media (and everyone's, I'm sure) for "antisemitic" views... whatever tf that entails. Because apparently we learned nothing from our 20+ years in Afghanistan after which the Taliban took back over the second we left, reverting it right back into the cesspit it was when we arrived. The U.S. just has to keep poking its nose in Middle Eastern affairs despite the open contempt shown for us by everyone from our enemies to our so-called allies. And we really, REALLY can't afford it as evidenced by our homeless addict problem and people with college degrees living in their cars.
Again I reiterate that the vile acts of this minority of extremists do not reflect the majority of Jews, be they conservative or liberal, Zionist or not. (Boy I bet you normal sane Jews are getting sick of apologizing for your extremist, evil countrymen lately, eh? Relatable as a white American from the South who is sick to death of just about everything to do with this country, from our rotten 2-party system to our violent, warlike nature to our glorification of greed & stupidity. Maybe it's time to retire tribalism and evolve already?)
