Is the Iran War causing MAGA to turn on the Jews?
Amidst all the unpredictable factors which define the uncertain days in which we live, the one thing that never seems to change is the ongoing need of some to find a reason to blame Jews for something.
In this case, it is the Trump administration’s latest decision to take on the Islamic regime of Iran which, against all U.S. warnings and even after having endured devastating strikes last summer, continued to pursue their nuclear weapons’ ambitions.
It doesn’t matter that the looming threat to both America and Israel would have become a reality, very quickly, as their pace to achieve those goals had been greatly accelerated. There appears to be a growing segment of MAGA supporters, who have been provided with a new premise to harshly criticize Jews, as they view this unwanted war as being their fault.
What else is new? Without Jews, anti-Israel groups would have to come up with another scapegoat to make sure that someone else is the reason for their misery. But why search when the Jews are so obvious?
For now, anti-Israel groups are “urging their supporters to mobilize and resist the ‘Zionist’ oppression of Iran.” The Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, an international group of activists, is just one example of those quick to condemn the joint efforts of Israel and the U.S. against the Iranian terror regime.
Calling for “demonstrations in cities, communities and campuses around the world, their goal is to spread the brain virus of Jew-hatred and culpability as the plausible connection to the reason a Middle-East war is being waged.
For them, it is irrelevant that a cruel despot, now eliminated, was giving orders to systematically massacre tens of thousands of citizens in his country for courageously took to the streets to protest the ruthless leaders who had brought intolerable oppression, abject poverty and an iron-fist rule to their nation over the course of 47 insufferable years.
Of course, it’s easy for pampered, latte-drinking students or bored, unemployed young people to join a cause against freeing a tyrannized people who have never had the luxury of making their own choices or the ability to freely express themselves without fear of being brutally slaughtered.
These pathetic “protesters-for-hire” are all too willing to robotically heed the call, fulfilling the role of a heartless sub-class of humans, who feel no pain or sympathy for the extreme suffering of those they consider to be expendable victims.
Only their select, chosen terrorist-sympathizers, whom they see as oppressed, are deserving of compassion and empathy. Everyone else can rot in the hell that others have made for them.
How very fortuitous that a self-absorbed generation, devoid of all ethics and moral conscience, has risen up at a time when they can be so useful to these demonic organizations, that would have virtually no impact without their invaluable help.
Laughably, they’re calling on these snowflakes to “defend Iran’s sovereignty and break the Zionist war machine.” Are they even aware that ordinary Iranian citizens are euphoric, dancing in the streets, eternally grateful to both the U.S. and Israel, knowing that their decades of bondage are finally coming to an end?
Naïve and senseless young people, who have no skin in this game, are being asked to come to the defense of the worst of humanity – those under whose tyrannical rule they wouldn’t last for a minute!
Would they agree to wearing a hijab or even a full burqa, never permitted to feel a cool breeze on their faces? Would young men happily be recruited, agreeing to torture, dismember and rape those who refuse to be completely subservient to the wicked regime. Clearly none of these protesters have ever internalized what they are being asked to support!
They are just mindlessly willing to be part of a sub-human class of monsters who take pleasure in callous and sadistic behavior towards helpless people who have the misfortune to live under tormenters.
But what of everyday citizens who voted for Trump, believing in his appealing stance of “no more wars,” as he promised to focus all of his energies on “Making America Great Again?” That was the basis for the “America First” agenda where nothing mattered more than tending to the many problems plaguing the superpower.
How are they reacting to Trump’s decision to engage in a war, just a year after taking office? It’s tempting to look for a fall guy upon which to blame what seems to be an unexpected change of direction, and that’s where the Jews come in.
Naturally, the accusation of undue influence is being floated as Trump’s cause for change. Perhaps a Svengali spell, instigated by Bibi. That’s what the “Aryan Freedom Network/White Power organization must think since they’ve called for “all White Nationalists in America to start preparing and organizing.”
Their contention is that “the Jews have destroyed the America First agenda and that MAGA has been controlled by Jewish Satanic pedophiles.” How long will it take MAGA followers to adopt that way of thinking, especially as hatred and loathing for Jews is rapidly becoming more mainstream and accepted?
Will the MAGA crowd now join forces with the Woke Progressives who needed no pretext to hate Jews? And if so, how will that play out for the Trump administration who, up until now, could do no wrong in the sight of their followers?
Although Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, Vice-President J.D. Vance and Trump, himself, have all made a cogent and impassioned case, outlining why this war is in the best interest of all Americans, that doesn’t help to further a narrative that Jews are to blame. Because they must be looked upon as the real villains in a world that is becoming darker by the day.
In the end, who will remain untouched by these forces that are coming against Jews and their ancient homeland? It will have to be courageous Americans, whose biblical faith and clear thinking serve as the vital tools that preserve their ability to remain loyal to the people God calls His chosen!
If MAGA supporters go in the opposite direction, there will surely be grave consequences - both for the party and for the country, as a whole, because the decision to curse the Jews has never sat well with the Almighty!
