This isn’t new, either. Countless Americans have opposed Israel for many, many years.
Unfortunately, a very countable amount. The number of Americans who have been more than vaguely aware of Israel’s existence was dominated by Doomsday-craving fundies until very recently, not foreign policy nerds. This is probably the first time in my lifetime that public opinion has turned anti-Israel in any appreciable amount.
What’s that Churchill said? Americans will always do the right thing, after having tried everything else?
God, let this year be the turning point. Let it be the last, shameful time we’ve been complicit in Israel’s crimes. We have enough of our own to deal with.
