AAJ "Ask A Jew" Wednesday

It's everyone's favorite day of the week, "Ask A (Anti-Zionist) Jew" Wednesday! Ask whatever you want to know, within the sub rules, notably that this is not a debate sub and do not import drama from other subreddits. That aside, have fun! We love to dialogue with our non-Jewish siblings.

Please remember to pick an appropriate user-flair in order to participate! Thanks!

Thoughts on the result of the US election? ( Rants, loathe or expression also can)

The possibility of a swift end to the war, let alone a genuine peace process, was a faint enough hope under Kamala, but is almost totally extinguished with Trump as president. I’m very worried about how this will embolden Israel. Also, I get enormously uncomfortable when I think of how many Jews in my community are celebrating Trump’s win. Feels like I’m watching the older generation become MAGA in real time.

Consider Netanyahu and Trump clash egos. Very likely for them to hate each other viscerally within a few months.

Biden responded to Bibi by doing anything Bibi wanted.

It is not certain that Trump will react to humiliation by a foreign leader in the same way Biden did.
