Cenk UygurGUEST
If you say Israel, you must mean all Jews, right? all jews because i guess in their mind we're not making that jump but they're making that logical jump because in their mind uh all jews are actually loyal to israel now the numbers showed that's actually a lie it's not true at all it's empirically incorrect right But in their anti-Semitic minds, they have the dual loyalty trope.
Cenk UygurGUEST
Since there are diehard Zionists loyal only to Israel, they assume all other Jews in America are.
Cenk UygurGUEST
And that's just, again, objectively incorrect.
Cenk UygurGUEST
So if anyone's being anti-Semitic, it's definitely the CNN hosts and pundits.

Cenk UygurGUEST
So what's funny is that people are like, is he going to distance himself from the ad? I'm like, if he didn't distance himself, it would be illegal, right? And what's interesting about that is, wait, is everybody else coordinating? Because look at us.
Cenk UygurGUEST
When we actually did it the legal way and did not coordinate at all, everybody flipped out.
Cenk UygurGUEST
So which makes you go, hmm, about all the other super PACs, right? So, okay, but the consultant class was, of course, was like, no, no, oh, the poor Zionists, they'll yell at us, right? And so I get it.
Cenk UygurGUEST
I get it.
Mohammad MarandiGUEST
And they've been doing the same to Gaza.
Mohammad MarandiGUEST
I was on Piers Morgan's show a couple of nights ago with his Zionists.
Mohammad MarandiGUEST
I don't do interviews with Zionists from Israel.
Mohammad MarandiGUEST
But I forgot to ask the producer, and it was too late.
Mohammad MarandiGUEST
So on the show, I said, I'm not going to direct myself.
Mohammad MarandiGUEST
principled young Jewish man.
Mohammad MarandiGUEST
And it shows how, and it destroys the myth that Zionism and Judaism are the same.
Mohammad MarandiGUEST
After all, most Zionists are not even Jews, they're Christians.
Murtaza HussainGUEST
He gave all these reasons.
Murtaza HussainGUEST
He said they don't accept the nature of the state of Israel, not Zionist, et cetera, et cetera.
Murtaza HussainGUEST
Although they have sat in government before.
Murtaza HussainGUEST
So now the opposition, which has different diverse segments, but for the most part is also pretty right wing, they kind of basically accepted Netanyahu's presence, a pretense, sorry.
Haviv Rettig GurHOST
They tend to be right-wingers.
Haviv Rettig GurHOST
That's true because of higher birth rates among Haredi Israelis and religious Zionist Israelis, and because young people tended to move to the right after October 7.
Haviv Rettig GurHOST
About 600,000 new voters joined the roll since 2022.
Haviv Rettig GurHOST
Just cohort replacement should have given Likud maybe 100,000 new votes over what it got in 2022.
6 MINS LATER
Haviv Rettig GurHOST
The Haredim who feel it the most when their fellow Israelis, including fellow right-wing religious Israelis, serve hundreds of days of reserve duty, sacrifice so much, while their community insists on not serving in principle.
Haviv Rettig GurHOST
The ones who feel it the most are the ones who have family members who do serve.
Haviv Rettig GurHOST
who have families that cross the divide from kind of traditional, all the way to religious Zionist, all the way to ultra-Orthodox.
Haviv Rettig GurHOST
And the families that cross those divides tend to be Sephardi.
Thomas777GUEST
I mean, otherwi- otherwise what, otherwise what was the percentage in those days? You know, I mean, it wasn't...
Thomas777GUEST
Despite the way people characterize things, even in, even in basically progressive corridors, um, it's not like there's some like love for Zionism or some like love for Jewish people, you know.
Thomas777GUEST
Um, and certainly, um, I mean, somebody like Churchill, I know people make a lot of the fact of like, oh, you know, Churchill was, was, was writing anti-Semitic editorials.
Thomas777GUEST
You know, it's like, okay, you gotta take with a grain of salt anything Churchill said at any given time, you know, kind of depended on, on, on whose patronage he needed.
Benzi SiouniHOST
It's a great book.
Benzi SiouniHOST
And it could really, it like from all the way from the beginnings of Zionism until today.
Benzi SiouniHOST
And he has a whole chapter on how after, not directly after the six day war, but certain consequences that, that, that, that came out of that war.
Benzi SiouniHOST
You saw that like in the nineties, two thousands, all of a sudden the, Zionism started purely politically, and it did.
Benzi SiouniHOST
And it wanted, not for everyone, of course.
Benzi SiouniHOST
There was many different voices in Zionism.
Benzi SiouniHOST
But let's say the most powerful voices, right? They wanted to create a new Jew, as they say.
Benzi SiouniHOST
They wanted to kind of do away with tradition being our connection, right? to being Jews and to create like, you know, a new, you know, military, militaristic Jew and all that, which is okay.
BlackmanHOST
You have to try to perceive that, where that's going.
BlackmanHOST
So it's not simple to have the responsibility of making it suck, right? But in principle, you would end up saying that it seems that where we are today, that it's become, let's call it, somewhat mainstream, especially in the religious Zionist centrist Orthodox circles.
BlackmanHOST
And in the more official circles, the chief rabbinate of Israel, I don't think there's a hitter from their side, at least under Rabbi Lau.
BlackmanHOST
And I don't know, I haven't heard a psak now, but I think now everybody accepts that there are people who say, yes, if you do it, you know, what's the point of making a fight over something that great people have allowed? But if you walk into various communities over here, like we are a lot more conservative with a small sea, you know, you've got to ask what's going on.
Aya LabaniehGUEST
And we saw the same thing with the Arab Spring, right? Everybody was crying Mu'ammara.
Aya LabaniehGUEST
It was suddenly, you know, it was a Zionist plot.
Aya LabaniehGUEST
It was an American plot.
Aya LabaniehGUEST
It was an Iranian plot.
16 MINS LATER
Aya LabaniehGUEST
And that's why we've been seeing a lot of pressure on platforms like TikTok, for example.
Mohamed HassanHOST
This isn't a conspiracy theory because a lot of US officials have said this pretty publicly.
Aya LabaniehGUEST
Yeah, a lot of US officials have explicitly made TikTok an enemy because it has been circulating a lot of anti-Zionist or pro-Palestinian content.
Aya LabaniehGUEST
And activists are constantly in this back and forth with these companies, trying to outsmart them.
David PennHOST
It's very difficult for Jewish people to talk about.
David PennHOST
Because I think, of course, it all leads to Zionism.
David PennHOST
We're going back into, I was just reading you the thing from Alexander Dugan.
David PennHOST
Oh, God.
6 MINS LATER
David PennHOST
And then these people jumped up and they said, wow, we have the Industrial Revolution.
David PennHOST
We can change our reality with science.
David PennHOST
And once that idea worked its way into people's minds, what popped up? Christian Zionism, Jewish Zionism, and socialism and Marxism And my question I'm asking you, and the thing I'm trying to work through, and I was reading on my show Thursday, I was reading The Merchant of Venice, which has got the character Shylock.
David PennHOST
And Shylock says, if you hurt me, am I not just like you to revenge upon you? So we had all these expulsions of the Jews from all these European countries.
ThomasGUEST
That was the, that was the understanding.
ThomasGUEST
I mean, otherwi- otherwise what, otherwise what was the percentage in those days? You know, I mean, it wasn't-- Despite the way people characterize things, even in, even in basically progressive corridors, um, it's not like there's some, like, love for Zionism or some, like, love for Jewish people, you know.
ThomasGUEST
Um, and certainly, um, I mean, somebody like Churchill, I know people make a lot of the fact of like, oh, you know, Churchill was, was, was writing anti-Semitic editorials.
ThomasGUEST
You know, it's like, okay, you gotta take with a grain of salt anything Churchill said at any given time, you know, kind of depended on, on, on whose patronage he needed.
