Just to conflate all on the left or far left with antisemitism of the worst form? really, Mossfern?

There is no denying that there are some on the left who also hate Jews. To ignore that is disingenuous.
It's like a doting parent who believes that their angel can do no wrong.

Zionist” as an epithet, a sneaky smuggle-through-customs trick of saying “Jew” without saying “Jew,” mirrors the neo-Nazi nomenclature of the 1970s and ‘80s. Back then, violent supremacists hosted hate rallies and plotted terrorist attacks to fight “ZOG,” meaning “Zionist Occupied Government.” Now the progressive left is likeliest to utter “Zionist”

I could research further, but I think what I posted will suffice.
I NEVER said all on the left - did I?

call out those on the left. It was quite noticeable, whether you meant to focus only on them or not.

Some people are just looking for controversy. I believe I implied that that ZOG is mostly right wing. That doesn't mean that it doesn't exist among the radical left. I never said that it was a general belief among the radical left.

Look back at my posts.
Read the paragraph from the article that I posted.

I doubt I am not the only one who has never heard of that acronym or its implications and associated meanings. I did google it but you should explain what this is and the context.

And no, the acronym does not explain it alone. So those giving that answer alone are not helping most.

They might be posted by people on my "Hide All" list.

It does appear that MFer was persuaded by Netanyahu to attack Iran. But he also appears persuaded by Xi, Putin, and Stephen Miller, Elon Musk...

Trump is an idiot.

Bonus points if it's a big, burly man with tears in his eyes who addresses Trump as "sir".

did I see anyone implying that members of DU believe in ZOG.
Not all of us are radical left, and there has been no one whose beliefs may be far left has expressed this.
That doesn't mean that it doesn't exist.

Repeatedly claiming that Israel controls Trump is the same thing without the use of ZOG. It's all the same.

than an Israel/USA thing.

Trump will make a deal with anyone if he gets what he thinks is an advantage.... or $$$
Netanyahu is not Israel. The US has interest in Israel as a democratic nation that has been our ally.
That does not mean that in any way, shape or form Israel controls the US, and by inference by many, "Jews."

To wear blinders and say that no one on the left side of the political spectrum believes that "Zionists" control our government, is naive at best.

AND NO, I AM NOT ACCUSING PEOPLE HERE OF BEING ANTISEMITIC.

AIPAC s not the only lobbing group - they come in all colors and flavors.
