Parallax Views w/ J.G. Michael
Society & Culture
On this edition of Parallax Views, we return to discussion of the rise of the far-right in Israel and the simultaneous spike in antisemitism happening in the U.S. In the first segment, journalist Abe Silberstein offers a progressive Jewish-American perspective on Israeli politics, Palestine, Netanyahu, the Religious Zionism Coalition, Yehudit Otzma and Itamar Ben-Gvir, J Street, non- and anti-Zionism, Peter Beinart and cultural Zionism, the Zionist Organization of America's (ZOA) Morton Klein and the Jewish-American fringe right-wing, gadfly Israeli journalist Gideon Levy and the Israeli left, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), racist and supremacist ideologies on the Israeli right, the ideology of Rabbi Meier Kahane and post-Kahane fa-right ideology in Israel, U.S. support for Israel, human rights, and much, much more.
In the second segment of the show, Dr. Stephen Zunes returns to discuss the recent spikes in antisemitism and how to combat it while also combating the rise of the Israeli far-right and human rights abuses in Israel/Palestine. Zunes, who has also written about the human rights issues related to the Moroccan occupation of Western Sahara, argues we need to take a human rights-centric approach to Israel/Palestine and that we should be wary of antisemitic tropes that blame all U.S. foreign policy on the state of Israel.
