Why Seth Rogen’s Anti-Israel Rant Matters

Seth Rogan told Marc Maron that support for Israel is outdated thinking. His opinion rests on a deep ignorance of the history of Israel and the Jewish people.

Seth Rogan’s total ignorance is typical of what results form the typical non-religious Jewish “education” in the United States. I know that because I grew up in that world. To put it in secular terms, it would be like if we took the comments of someone who has a kindergarten education seriously who was speaking about physics. Rogan (obviously) knows NOTHING. Which explains the entire generation of American, progressive, millennials with similar views about Israel. They know even less than even my anemically Jewishly educated generation.

This article makes that case incredibly well.

Why Anti-Semitism Is The New Social Justice

All the cool kids are busy fighting against the movement for Jewish indigenous rights

“Zionism is the support for and affirmation of the Jewish right to self-determination in their indigenous homeland of Israel. It’s the Jewish Civil Rights Movement. It is the struggle of a native people who have been oppressed for thousands of years, expelled from their land, killed and persecuted wherever in the world they went. It is the celebration of victory, of the return home after millennia of diaspora, of surviving and flourishing against all odds.

That sounds like something the Left would wholeheartedly support, right? Not anymore.“

Yes, Anti-Zionism Is The Same As Anti-Semitism

For progressive Jews, it’s easy to demand that Israelis adhere to their progressive notions. In the real-world, however, anti-Zionism is disaster for Jews.

“...opposing “Zionism” itself — the movement for a Jewish homeland — is to deny the validity of a Jewish claim to a nation altogether. It puts you in league with Hamas and Hezbollah and the mullahs of Iran. The Palestinian Liberation Organization’s 1968 charter states that “Judaism, being a religion, is not an independent nationality. Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with an identity of its own; they are citizens of the states to which they belong.” This, it seems, is now also the position of a number of Democrats.”

'Anti-Zionist' Protesters Harass, Vandalize Jewish-Owned Leftist Cafe In San Francisco

Last month, The Daily Wire brought you the story of a leftist-owned cafe called "Manny's," that was targeted by other leftists for it's "pro-Israel" owner.

The ONLY issue with the owner is that he’s Jewish. Th entire BDS movement is designed to legitimize antisemitism. Incidents like this prove that case.

“The amassed protesters "painted a Star of David on Manny’s exterior along with the words “F*** Zionism.” A window was broken."

The owner, Mr. Yekutiel, is about as far from a right-wing, MAGA hat-wearing conservative as humanly possible. As The Daily Wire reported last month, Yekutiel is a member of the LGBT community, worked in the Obama White House as an intern, and volunteered on both Barack Obama's and Hillary Clinton's presidential campaigns. Manny's Cafe has hosted a number of decidedly Democratic events, including fundraisers for "incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, San Francisco Mayor London Breed, and activists with Black Lives Matter."
