A Jewish bloke who is an acquaintance through cycling, rather than a close friend, and who I consider to be level-headed. He is clearly outraged - through what I have seen him post on socials - that there isn’t more western support for Israel (as a state). I’ll cite the Wembley arch FA decision as something he was livid about.
My inference - and some will probably tell you I’m wrong - is that he sees criticism of Israel as criticism of Jewish people. Which couldn’t be further from the truth, in any right-thinking hive mind.
I know some Jewish people I'd regard as very smart and level headed. One has even referring to eating meat as basically a holocaust. They have unwavering support for Israel and their govt.
Interesting post, this.
