Yea, I guess i just don’t have the same optimism about public sentiment.

I’ll chalk it up to how the US elections went and how much more common/accepted Zionism is becoming in many circles. It’s certainly becoming more polarized - many liberals and progressives have been recognizing the Palestinian resistance , but conservatives and even many center and center-right liberals have become more ardently supportive of Israel, even openly islamophobic.

My sense is that the zionist movement is even more pronounced in Germany, but I’ll admit that I’m pretty distant from german culture so I am by no means an authority on the topic.
