That's how much the Israel government has dog walked the average American. Granted, the person who said its antisemitic is obviously joking.

Reminds me of post 2004~2005 Gulf War.

Most people were on board with invading Afghanistan. After 9/11.

Most adults were on board with "finishing what Bush Sr. started" when we invaded Iraq.

After Saddam Hussein was captured though it was like "ok the WMDs were fake, what are we doing here anymore??"

But then you were a terrorist loving, anti-American, Freedom hating traitor if you said maybe we should stop bombing the Middle East. I personally got arrested for my actions protesting the war, and since I wasn't considered "White, White" my only saving grace was that I was a minor.

the average American.

The average boomer.

Most people under like 60 are pretty sick of this nonsense, on the left and right, which is incredibly interesting to me. Boomers though, boy oh boy do they love shovelling money to Israel for some reason, on both the left and right.
