Mehdi Hasan's Zeteo just published a blatantly pro-Zionist article

So called "Leftist anti-Zionist" Mehdi Hasan's media company Zeteo just published a blatantly pro-Zionist article by Dov Waxman two days ago titled "Conflating Jews with Israel Is Dangerous – Whether by Antisemites, U.S. Politicians, or the Israeli State".

Several blatant issues and glaring errors from this article have been debunked and addressed by Tariq Acknickulous in this article here: Debunking Zeteo’s Article “Conflating Jews with Israel Is Dangerous”

The article includes a number of terrible takes and even lies about Jewish opinion on Israel including false claims that most American Jews don't support Israel despite poll after poll after poll proving otherwise. Overall, it's just another chapter in Jewish exceptionalism, protecting the feelings of Jews, and rehabilitating their image, almost painting Jews as somehow victims of Zionism. The article blatantly states

"I am not advocating, as Hasan Piker recently did, that Jews living outside Israel should disassociate themselves from Israel in order to be safe. Jews are entitled to have an attachment to Israel."

The author, Dov Waxman, is a Jewish American-British "Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Foundation" Professor of Israel Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). The foundation is an openly Zionist organization that literally donates millions of dollars every year to pro-Israel organizations including AIPAC, Jewish National Fund, Magen David Adom, United Hatzalah, American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, Israel Democracy Institute, RAND Corporation, to name a few.

Waxman was a self-admitted genocide denier up until August 2025 in which he wrote an article saying it was a "long and emotionally difficult process over the past 22 months of horrific violence and heartbreaking suffering in Gaza for me to conclude that Israel is guilty of genocide." In this same article, he still blames HAMAS for destruction and genocide in Gaza, saying "I also blame Hamas for causing so much death and destruction in Gaza."

This is a new low even for shitlib zio-rat Mehdi Hasan

Compilation of polling of Jews around the world regarding Zionism from the past year

Tariq Acknickulous, who BE has cited a bunch of times, has posted a new Substack article where he compiled the latest available polling data regarding the opinion of Jews in the US, UK, Canada and Israel regarding Israel and Zionism from the past year.

The results may (not) shock you. One must ask themselves, why are so many people in the west who self-identity as pro-Palestine so focused on running defence for Jews, doing free PR for a factually largely Zionist democraphic? Why are we speaking up for Jews, lying on their behalf, always making sure to mention the token anti-Zionists among them despite being very fringe?
