And then I'll finally snap and just start going ham on anyone who so much as utters the word Zionist within my hearing.
This is pure ignorance. And the worst blend you can have in any culture is a blend of ignorance, racism, and an unerring sense of moral righteousness about it.

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
