so, lots of Jewish people do think this way. I think it's extremely dangerous, because I think Jewish ppl in the US telling themselves that Israel will save them if things go sideways are deluding themselves badly.https://twitter.com/Yair_Rosenberg/status/1211361401714946048 …

If Trump starts to put left Jews who speak out against Israel in prison, for example (not a crazy scenario!) would Israel demand their release? offer them asylum?

Israel's right wing government is going to offer asylum to Democratic-voting American Jews en masse? really?

are there situations in which Israel might be a refuge for certain Jews? sure! is Israel more likely to offer me refuge than, say, Canada? I am very skeptical!

seeing Israel as a refuge leads many Jewish people to make some (imo) bad decisions in the name of safeguarding themselves and their future

we live here. our future is here. if things collapse here, we are fucked. Israel is unlikely to save us, and we shouldn't pretend it will, because doing so puts us more at risk.

It’s such a dark vision for those of us who aren’t Jewish. I don’t want to live in post ethnic cleaning/white ethnostate (even if I weren’t part of multiple groups that would make me a target). Don’t leave us to our fate, fight with us! We need you- we need everyone.
