A Middle Eastern melting pot

g religious and political freedom. Israel is, in every sense, a Middle Eastern melting pot.

The claim that Israel is a ‘white’ coloniser nation is a myth cooked up by identity politics. The only way that the average keffiyeh-wearing student protester is able to understand the Israel-Palestine conflict is through this identitarian lens. Because whiteness has become shorthand for privileged oppressors, the Israelis must be ‘white’ in contrast to the ‘brown’ Palestinians – thus making Israel an acceptable target of woke vitriol. This simplistic fantasy is just another attempt to delegitimise and demonise the Jewish State.

The toxic mix of leftist identity politics and Islamic antisemitism is defining the current moment for Jews – in Israel and in the West.
