I am an American. I am also the IDF. And I stand with Israel.

Well, this well and truly pisses me off. You accuse the Diaspora community of doing nothing and yet you supply no evidence of that. I live in the Bay Area, which as the entire world knows, is a hotbed of antisemitic, anti-Zionist hate. I have had a front row seat to that hate and have fought with many others to change hearts and minds, to prevent--with some success, with some losses--hateful resolutions from going forward. Much of that will not be public because it is a slow accretion of one little act after another and/or because it is not deemed newsworthy. So i am not surprised that you do not know the extent of the work being done. That does not excuse you for making accusations without knowledge and without (apparently) attempting to get that knowledge.

Many of us have seen this coming and having been working on this since well before October 7. We have been working nonstop to stem the hate. An apology for your sweeping accusation is in order.
