HERE’S WHAT DONALD TRUMP REALLY THINKS ABOUT ISRAEL AND THE JEWS
In betrayal of his gross ignorance of simple 8th grade civics,
Trump tweeted, "It would show great weakness if Israel allowed
Rep. Omar and Rep.Tlaib to visit. They hate Israel & all Jewish people,
& there is nothing that can be said or done to change their minds.
Minnesota and Michigan will have a hard time putting them back in office. They
are a disgrace!"
.
In response, the state of Israel - the United States' number one recipient of foreign aid - has denied two members of the United States Congress entry into the country as part of a congressional fact-finding delegation. The Democrats should cancel the trip entirely in response.
.
The only thing these two members of congress were guilty of was speaking out in accordance with American ideals, but Trump neither knows, nor care, anything about such "nonsense"; all he knows about is what's in the best interest of Donald Trump - and what's so ironic about it is, a large part of his most enthusiastic supporters have a passionate hatred of not only Zionists and Israel, but ALL Jews as a people. Yet, Trump says these bigots are "very good people".
.
Glaring evidence of both Trump's views, and the views of the base he reaches out to towards Jews was clearly demonstrated during his 2016 campaign against Hillary Clinton, where he posted a picture of Hillary next to a Jewish symbol and a pile of money, suggesting that Hillary was in collusion with the Jews to takeover America. Thus, Trump cares absolutely nothing about either Israel, or Jews as a whole. All he cares about – as usual - is how they can benefit him personally.
.
Trump will turn on anything or anybody - even American democracy - to promote his short-term advantage. So the only reason he's currently supporting the Israeli Zionists is because they're at war with Muslims (or non-White people), and as far as he's concerned, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. But Trump tends to go whichever way the wind blows in his favor, so when his bigoted base runs out of foes of color, they'll begin to focus on the Jews, and Trump will be leading the charge.
.
So Natanyahu is making a serious error in hitching his wagon to this self-serving demagogue. When Trump goes down - and he's definitely going down, and if he loses the next election, even to prison - America's not going to forget this unholy alliance.
.
Israel's close connection with a fascist like Trump is causing it to be viewed in a much different light by many Americans. How could such an association be remotely possible considering Jewish history? The Zionists are betraying their own convictions, and based on the very same argument that Hitler used - "to insure the security of the nation".
.
Thus, Netanyahu is causing the state of Israel to be irreversibly tarnished by its dance with the Devil - and ironically, a Devil who has absolutely no genuine respect for either the state of Israel, or the Jewish diaspora anywhere in the world. He's also allowing Israel to be used to satisfy Donald's short-term interest, and causing the state to take on the baggage of the world's passionate antipathy towards Trump in the process.
