WEST BANK (Dispatches) – With growing numbers of American Jews turning their backs on the Zionist regime and progressive movements like Black Lives Matter (BLM) and the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign on the ascendency, the occupying regime’s Diaspora Affairs Minister Nachman Shai issued a stark warning over the regime’s future.
Shai sounded the alarm over the growing unity of American Jews, who are predominantly liberal, with groups like BLM and BDS in a podcast with the pro-Zionist advocacy group the American Jewish Committee.
“The other day, I briefed the cabinet and said: ‘If we see more of the radical left and progressive liberal Jews continuing to support BDS and Black Lives Matter, and similar to the Palestinians they relate to Israel as a genocide regime or an apartheid regime, we may lose America,’” Shai told the American Jewish Committee according to the Haaretz.
“The bridge to the Democratic Party and the Republican Party goes through the American Jewish community, and that’s the only bridge I believe in,” Shai explained, warning that the occupying regime is in danger of losing bi-partisan support in Washington; a position it has enjoyed for decades.
It is not clear what prompted Shai to issue this warning now as the growing split between American Jews and the Zionist regime is not a new phenomenon. Sometimes referred to as a “messy breakup” the wedge between the two communities is said to be getting wider by the year.
American Jews are by and large liberals who vote overwhelmingly for the Democratic party. The Zionist regime however has been in an inevitable decline towards apartheid and other forms of structural racism which liberal’s claim to abhor vehemently.
The occupying regime’s growing reputation as a pariah regime, alongside the fact that it was founded on the ethnic cleansing of indigenous Palestinians and its subsequent military occupation – which is far and away the longest in modern history – have made it impossible for American Jews to reconcile their liberal values with support for a regime accused of committing crimes against humanity by imposing an apartheid regime on Palestine.
In April, human rights organization Human Rights Watch (HRW) joined a host of other prominent groups to declare that the occupying regime is committing the crimes of apartheid and persecution.
Prior to HRW’s report, Israeli human rights group B’Tselem branded the regime an “apartheid” regime that “promotes and perpetuates Jewish supremacy between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River.” Echoing the UN’s 2017 report which concluded that the Zionist regime was practicing apartheid, B’Tselem dismissed the popular misconception that it is a democracy within the Green (1949 Armistice) Line.
In an article two months ago, two former envoys of the occupying regime to South Africa also denounced the Zionist regime as an apartheid regime by drawing parallels with the system of racial segregation in South Africa which ended in 1994.
