JVL Introduction
Republican supporters of Donald Trump’s call for Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ayanna Pressley to “go back” to the “places from which they came”, all focus on the fact that these people are “anti-Israel”.
Republicans, as Peter Beinart points out, can no longer able to distinguish the USA from Israel. Why ever not?

Great analysis of the openly racist vile rhetoric of Trump and the Republican Party who are making inciting violence and hostility normal discourse and encouraging white supremacists to be embolded. Very alarming and dangerous times.
I never thought that we would ever see in our lifetimes the widespread erosion of our civil liberties, freedom of speech and rights coming from the unbelievably bad toxic combination of the disgusting far right wing fascists in power in the USA and Israel who are behaving like ethnic cleansing immigant hating genocide manics from history while the mainstream media trash good people on the left and try to muzzle any criticism. I honestly fear where all this will eventually end.
The whole enterprise of the USA was to ethnically cleanse Native Americans & take their land and replace them with white settlers.
Some might call this a racist enterprise. Its also why they have guns.
We should all know by now where the road of “ethnic democracy” leads to. That is why the Palestinian cause must be everyone’s cause.
Mark Francis is right, which is why the US elite does not criticise Ashkenazim or European Jews ethnically cleansing Palestinians from historic Palestine.
European settlers ethnically cleansed native indigenous Americans and now European settlers are ethnically cleansing the native indigenous Palestinians.
How can the US criticise Israel for doing what the US has already done?
