We discuss the historical roots of anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism within progressive circles, and on the right, examining these phenomena through the psychological lens of projection. We trace the transformative journey of Israel from its origins as a socialist state to its current status as a key ally of the United States. This transition has sparked a variety of responses, including resentment towards Jews. Benjamin explores the nuances of this resentment and the challenges Jewish communities face in maintaining their identity amidst shifting political landscapes. Join us as we navigate the intricate interplay between ideology, identity, and international politics, offering insights into one of the most contentious issues of our time.
