This is particularly rich coming from people whose Democratic Party is currently thinking of making a Farrakhanite, BDS-supporting, Jew-hating, pro-Muslim Brotherhood, racist the chair of the Democratic National Committee.

While Bannon, and Breibart before him have been staunchly pro Israel.....

Only liberals can choose not to go down the road to widespread, systematic violence.

The line that pro-Israel is pro-Jew while opposition to Likud's expansion policies is a form of anti-Semitism is a bit of rationalization that deceives the uninformed. The alt-right guys chanting "Jew-S-A" are expressing opposition to the current role of Jews in American life -- including American Jewish support for Israel. This is classic anti-Semitism, pure and simple.

The jingoist support for Likud's illegal expansion is driven more by hatred of Arabs than love of Jews. It also clashes with the Trump foreign policy principle of making allies pay for their own defense. We are currently spending five million dollars a day on military aid to the Jewish state, a far bigger welfare client than South Korea or Japan, countries which Trump has already suggested need to look to their own resources.

The kind of argument which consists entirely of name calling ("Farrakhanite, BDS-supporting, Jew-hating, pro-Muslim Brotherhood") personal attack without any element of policy analysis is a big part of why thoughtful Americans have concluded that the alt-right and its supporters in the GOP ranks simply haven't thought things through.
