It’s not a paradox to them. They’re supporting Israel going to war not because they like Jews, but because they think it’s going to trigger the second coming of Christ.

Always fun to see how many people don’t realize “zionists” and “Jews” are not synonyms, and that many zionists are only “supporting the Jewish state” because they think all the Jews need to be there to trigger the second coming
Fun times
Let’s be fair, some of them just like fascism.
Let’s be fair some of them are just fucking moron Americans who fall for any propaganda that comes their way
I think the proper term is American Idiot /s
They don’t give a fuck about Christ, he’s just a mascot for them to moralize fascism.
We’re overthinking the far right’s support for Israel: they just hate Muslims more than they hate Jews.
They don’t give a fuck about Christ
Yeah, but they do, in their supreme selfishness, want to get Raptured.
…and also because, in their minds, the point of Zionism is not only to get the Jews to Israel, but also away from everywhere else (if I understand their doomsday cult bullshit correctly, all the Jews are supposed to return there before Armageddon is triggered). But yeah, that’s just a secondary bonus compared to getting Raptured.
My parents believe this, which is why I feel clueless when it comes to the Israel-Palestinian conflict. I don’t know the truth, beyond what they expect me to be spoon fed from them.
The far right also supports Israel because that means they can send Jews there. It fits their worldview of every race/ethnicity having their own land. There is no paradox. Besides, Jews and Muslims are killing each other over there. This is why all these far-right politicians are so very Zionist.
It fits their worldview of every race/ethnicity having their own land.
This is disgusting and, as a result, totally believable.
But the real reason is that Zionism is a prerequisite for the christian end of days prophecy.
Can’t get raptured if they don’t keep as many Jews in Israel as possible.
Religion is such a cancer.
There is a great benefit to having a strong US-backed military presence in the middle East for the general security of the US. That’s the long and short of it for Republicans.

And the radical left supports an islamist organization.
It’s all just a fucking circus 🤡
The radical left hates Jews almost as much as the radical right. Look up “horseshoe theory”.
ye, because the woke left isn’t living in a paradox at all
