This is, indeed, something I absolutely wish more people knew, but I think part of it is the trajectory of binationalism, from a vision that was well within the aegis of Zionism for many decades, to a vision that gets you labeled an anti-Zionist today if you express.

If anti-Zionists admitted this, they would have to admit that Zionism is a rich intellectual tradition which once had many adherents among leftists. If Zionists admitted this, they’d have to stop labeling today’s binationalists as anti-Zionist and anti-Israel.

If only you or someone you worked closely with had the power to do something about this beyond just sternly worded messages.

Like so many right-minded people on this platform, I'm trying to migrate my social media use over to Bluesky. Find me at: bsky.app/profile/joelhs…

I'm not on here much these days (find me at Bluesky bsky.app/profile/joelhs…) but I have a new piece in Religion Dispatches about JD Vance's trip to Dachau, and the Christianization of Holocaust memorial sites: religiondispatches.org/jd-vance-is-me…
