Putting aside your usual toxic polemics and the disinformation you disseminate, your argument defeats itself.

You are saying that Zionism, the Jewish national movement and expression, should be defined not by what the Jewish people mean by it, but by how Arab Palestinians experience its consequences. Fine. But then apply that bizarre standard consistently.

To a large majority of Jews and Israeli citizens of all backgrounds, Arab Palestinian nationalism is not experienced as an abstract struggle for dignity and self-determination.

It is associated with a century of rejection of Jewish national, religious and cultural rights; riots and massacres; wars launched to prevent Jewish sovereignty; expulsions and destruction of Jewish communities; terrorism against civilians; suicide bombings; rocket attacks; hostage-taking; and repeated movements and factions that have explicitly sought Israel’s elimination instead of coexistence with it. Oh yes, it also includes the deliberate murder of tens of thousands of Jewish and non-Jewish Israeli citizens, as well as Jews worldwide. You have yourself celebrated, legitimised and parroted the narratives of some of those factions, including in response to the atrocities of 7 October.

That does not mean Arab Palestinian national identity is inherently murderous, nor does it erase Arab Palestinian dispossession, suffering or legitimate national aspirations. But if your personal and collective experience gives you the right to redefine Zionism entirely through its worst consequences for Arab Palestinians, then Jews and Israelis are equally entitled to define Arab Palestinian nationalism entirely through its worst consequences for Jews and Israelis.

Presumably, you would reject that as reductive and dehumanising. You would argue that Arab Palestinian nationalism means more than the PLO, PFLP, PIJ and Hamas, more than massacres and terrorism, more than rejectionism, and that Arab Palestinians themselves have some authority to explain what their national movement means to them, right?If so, that is the fundamental flaw in your argument.

Zionism, at its core, is the Jewish national movement for self-determination and national expression in the Jewish people’s historic homeland. Like every national movement, it has produced competing political traditions, policies, wars and injustices that can and should be debated. It has also produced extraordinary outcomes and enabled the Jewish people to reassert national sovereignty in part of the Land of Israel after centuries of statelessness, persecution and exclusion from national self-determination.

Telling Jews that what Zionism means to them is “irrelevant”, while insisting that Arab Palestinians retain the right to define their own national aspirations, is not a coherent principle. It is a double standard.

You do not have to embrace Zionism. But if you recognise the right of other peoples to national self-determination while uniquely rejecting that right for Jews, then your position is discriminatory.

And if you expect Arab Palestinians to be treated as authors of their own national identity, including the maximalist version of it that you represent, albeit with a smile instead of the typical sword, and not have that identity defined exclusively through Jewish trauma, then Jews are entitled to precisely the same courtesy.

RIP Dolly Parton.
An American original who treated talent like a tool and generosity like a full-time job.
She didn’t just sing about the working class — she built libraries, funded public health centers, and kept showing up long after the applause faded.
As philanthropic and dedicated to public service as she was gifted.
We won’t see another like her.💗

A concerning conversation with the Deputy Foreign Minister of Norway Andreas Kravik @akravik79, about Norway’s proposed trade ban singling out Jews. He wouldn’t answer the direct question about whether Jewish-run businesses employing local Arabs would be exempt, but he was clear that the intention was to target the Jews, whom he considers to be “illegal” in areas including Judea and Jerusalem.

The fact that the political rhetoric underpinning this initiative is intended to lead to criminal sanctions is mind-blowing. Far more also needs to be done to educate Norwegians about the potential serious implications for Norway of breaching international trade law and US anti-boycott law arising from these disgraceful proposals.

Thank you @Henrikbeckheim for hosting this conversation.

“Blaming Jewish Americans for the violence and hate they’re facing is not just wrong, it provides an excuse to those perpetuating these anti-Jewish hate crimes,” Rosen said. “Let me be absolutely clear: crimes against Jews for being Jews is antisemitism plain and simple. There’s no excuse for it.”

"More Democrats speak out against El-Sayed’s relationship with Hasan Piker
Rep. Brad Schneider (D-IL): ‘It is disingenuous for El-Sayed to try to distance himself from Piker without specifically condemning, refuting, or even just rejecting Piker’s hateful rhetoric’

By Marc Rod August 25, 2026

As more Democratic lawmakers join the chorus calling out influencer Hasan Piker over his comments that Jews’ support for Israel invites antisemitic violence, a growing number of moderate Democratic lawmakers said that Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed’s efforts to distance himself from Piker, a campaign surrogate, haven’t gone far enough.

“Hasan Piker’s recent ‘victim-blaming’ comments inciting violence against American Jews reflect one of the oldest strategies long deployed by bigots and tyrants alike. His most recent diatribe is consistent with his history of antisemitic statements,”

Photo: Rep. Brad Schnieder (D-IL), a co-chair of the Congressional Jewish Caucus and chair of the centrist New Democrat Coalition, said in a statement.

Schneider said that El-Sayed had “so-far refused to condemn the words of Hasan Piker, his friend and frequent campaign surrogate.”

“It is disingenuous for El-Sayed to try to distance himself from Piker without specifically condemning, refuting, or even just rejecting Piker’s hateful rhetoric,” Schneider continued. “Claiming that no one speaks for him except himself and his team is not enough. The Jewish community in Michigan deserves outright condemnation of rhetoric that threatens their safety and very identity.”

Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) expressed similar sentiments.

"El-Sayed’s response was pathetic and it did not answer the call,” Gottheimer  said on Fox News. “He did not condemn Piker. He didn’t even mention Piker. He didn’t condemn what Piker said. He didn’t say I will never campaign with this guy again. … Frankly, he should not only condemn him, but no Democratic members should allow Piker anywhere near them on the campaign trail, they should have nothing to do with this guy. And anybody who does and has not condemned him bears responsibility for some of these comments like that.”

Gottheimer also urged House Republican leadership to call up his resolution with Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) condemning both Piker and far-right antisemitic influencer Candace Owens for a vote when the House returns to session next week — a move to force progressive lawmakers who have allied and associated with Piker to take a clear stance on the record about Piker’s history of antisemitism.

El-Sayed did not respond to a request for comment.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) also reiterated his previous condemnations of Piker’s comments in an appearance on CNN, confirming that he had been referring to Piker in a statement the day prior, which did not name the influencer specifically.

“Those comments were dangerous, malicious and antisemitic and should not be tolerated by anyone in the public square,” Jeffries said. “Everybody, regardless of ideological perspective, should be willing to denounce this rise of antisemitic rhetoric, hate crimes and bigotry, and actually try to move us to a society where we embrace everyone — even where there are differences on issues, be they foreign or domestic. The notion that people should be targeted because of their religious beliefs or ethnicity or race, whatever the case may be, that’s fundamentally inconsistent with who we are in this country.”

Piker dismissed the criticism from various Democrats as the result of an “aipac boss call.”

“they are unanimous in their hatred of me, and i welcome their hatred. if you’re a defender of israel’s genocide, of its occupation, of its child killing spree – then your boos mean nothing to me,” Piker wrote on X.

Other Democrats joined Jeffries in condemning Piker.

Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV), a co-chair of the bipartisan Senate antisemitism task force, called the comments a “new low,” even for someone who “has been trafficking in antisemitic tropes for a while.”

“Blaming Jewish Americans for the violence and hate they’re facing is not just wrong, it provides an excuse to those perpetuating these anti-Jewish hate crimes,” Rosen said. “Let me be absolutely clear: crimes against Jews for being Jews is antisemitism plain and simple. There’s no excuse for it.”

Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) said, “This shouldn’t be hard: no community should face the threat of violence for their political views.”

“In a time where political violence and anti-semitism has been spiking— and where just 6 months ago Michigan had a nearly deadly event of anti-semitic mass violence at Temple Israel — no one should causally be suggesting that anyone, Jews or otherwise, are to blame for being targeted,” Slotkin said.

Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) emphasized the pattern of “the extremes of American politics” of blaming Jews for antisemitism.

“Let me put it plainly: there is absolutely no justification for antisemitism. There never has been, and there never will be,” Torres said. “No amount of victim-blaming or gaslighting by Hasan Piker can shift moral responsibility away from where it belongs: the antisemites who commit acts of violence and terror against Jews.”

Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) said that “Piker’s dangerous and hateful language targeting Jewish Americans has no place in our civic discourse. Suggesting that Jewish Americans bear responsibility for hatred or violence directed against them is wrong, dangerous, and antisemitic” and that his commentary goes well beyond debate over Israeli or American policy.

“No American should be told that their political beliefs make them responsible for hatred or violence directed against them,” Booker continued. “There is a bright line between vigorous debate and rhetoric that stokes hatred toward our neighbors. Mr. Piker has crossed that line, repeatedly and unmistakably.”

Rep. Greg Stanton (D-AZ), who chairs the campaign arm of the New Democrat Coalition, said,  “Framing violence against Jewish Americans as something they brought on themselves shifts the blame from the perpetrators onto the very people they want to harm.”

Meanwhile, at least one progressive House Democrat is taking a different approach, calling out the growing number of Democrats who are condemning Piker.

“When the head of a major left-leaning DC think tank regularly gets in fights with the Dem base and progressive influencers on social media, almost in an irrational and uncontrollable way, does that ultimately hurt the think tank?” left-wing Rep. Mark Pocan (D-WI) said, an apparent reference to Center for American Progress CEO Neera Tanden, a vocal Piker critic on social media."
