At least 206 Jewish anti-Israel protesters were arrested Monday after hundreds rushed the New York Stock Exchange and staged a sit-in outside the Manhattan landmark, police said.
Scores of pro-Palestinian protesters wearing red shirts stormed toward the building on Broad Street in Lower Manhattan — then chained themselves to the doors just before the stock market’s opening bell at 9:30 a.m., footage shows.
A handful of demonstrators, who hail from the Jewish Voices for Peace group, could be seen removing their jackets as they set up shop outside the building — jackets they wore in a possible bid to conceal their anti-Israel attire and thwart any attempt to stop them ahead of time.
But someone told me they are sending weapons to Israel for Jewish voters.
Demographic groups aren’t monolithic, for what it’s worth. There is definitely a large pro-Israel contingent of Jewish Americans, too. Not that they deserve to be pandered to, but just that no one is able to represent an entire demographic.
It’s less about Jewish voters and more about pro-Israel campaign dollars.
Folks just have no clue how powerful the pro-Israel lobby is here. Combined with the zionist Christians it’s kind of a nightmare.

And their organization against progressive causes wasn’t limited to the national level either, they interfered in LOCAL elections too.

Who elected you to speak on behalf of Jews?
This survey shows a majority of American Jews are Zionists. The percentage of Zionists is much higher among Jews living in Israel. That gives you a solid majority for Zionism among Jews.
Mods won’t like this post and delete it, just like the one you answered to. They might even ban me.

Let’s embrace Palestinian ultranationalist Islamist blood and soil ideology and demand ethnic cleansing of the Jews back to Europe instead.

It’s also not an either/or situation. It’s not either the Palestinians have the land or the Israelis have the land.
The land can be shared. So can the government. And that government can be 100% secular.

The highest result for the NSDAP in elections was 43%.
Comparing Jews to Nazis is Antisemitic.
They were comparing Jews to Germans, not Nazis; they were comparing Zionists to Nazis.
Also antisemtic
No. Comparing Zionists to Nazis is not antisemitic. I am a Jew and not a Zionist. Many Zionists are Christians. Zionist does not equal Jew or vice versa.

That survey says the opposite of what you think it does. Zionism now is essentially the Jewish version of white supremacy. It’s radical. It’s dangerous.
But when the survey you link to states quite clearly:
“And most Jewish adults took the position that God “did not literally give” the land of Israel to the Jewish people (42%) or said they do not believe in God or a higher power at all (24%).”
That’s not Zionism as currently defined.
Zionism is independent of being religious or secular.
America and Israel. The only two countries in the world with Jews.
FACT.
Together they contain more than 80% of Jews.
I see. So based on your “evidence,” 60% of the percentage of the 80% of Jews that live in America in that combined 80% total of Israel and the U.S. are “Zionists” (even though that’s not what your poll said).
This is what the poll said:
“Somewhat emotionally attached to Israel” is not Zionism by any stretch of the imagination.
Emotionally attached means they want it to continue existing. That’s Zionism.
No. No it does not. I live in Indiana. I was born here. I have an emotional attachment to it.
If Canada decided to invade and turn this into Upper Ontario, because Canadian names are weird, I not only wouldn’t give a shit, I’d welcome the universal healthcare.
