Israel & many Israelis, (of course not all) appear to think this history of biases gives it/them carte blanche to commit horrific crimes against the Palestinian population of the Levant

Something to be remedied!

Also the kind of leadership that has flourished since neoliberalism took hold in the ‘80s - a dictatorial macho style of leadership (in which psychopaths & malignant narcissists excel) - is causing worse class, gender & racial disadvantage, & increasingly authoritarian governments everywhere

But we have learned old fashioned “party political leaders” let us down badly.
In their responses to climate change, arms trade, illegal wars, genocide, human rights, inequality, & so on.
I don’t know what are workable alternatives but I’m glad people are exploring them
Cynics change nothing

No.
I think when Farage uses the term “Israel lobby” he means “world Jewry lobby”
That ought to have been obvious to you in what I said above. I don’t know how to say it more clearly

Supporters of the rapture are not prominent in the EDL!
Interesting perspective on the philosemitism/antisemitism dimension here - the good Jews/bad Jews division
(I don’t agree with all of it
Eg I don’t object to illegal settlers because they are “bad Jews”, but because of the bad things they do)

The right’s philosemitism is expressed through their elevation of Israel, as a Jewish state, above all others.
The religious right’s support for Israel is of course something entirely separate, rooted as it is in a literal biblical interpretation of “the rapture”
It is fundamentally antisemitic

…. It is conflating Israel with all Jewry, which is itself antisemitism.
It seems important to me the language we use when we discuss antisemitism needs to be precise and clear.
This isn’t merely semantics.

I don’t agree.
Just because Farage intends to be antisemitic when he employs the term “Israel lobby” does not make the phrase “Israel lobby” antisemitic.
Whereas conflating“Jewish lobby” with “Israel lobby”, whether it is done by Farage or someone criticising him, seems extremely problematic to me….

Objecting to the wording of a post critiquing Farage is not defending Farage
It’s not defending Farage.
I was responding to a post which implied the two phrases add up to much the same thing
Farage is a Nazi sympathiser
I’ve just been canvassing in the Caerphillyby election to keep Reform out of the Welsh Senedd.
What have you done beyond misconstruing my posts?

In fact he is a strong supporter of Israel despite being a lifelong antisemite
