Warily broaching polpsych of ID threat for some Jewish Americans. Want Israel to be essentially good, empower/embody Jews, provide safety. Israel is self-destructing (& betraying) that cultivated image, incl w/ them, but US Jews are still hurt when allies decry it (& ofc many don't feel conflicted).

I haven't seen it put together quite like this, but I may not be privy to those discussions. Of course, I welcome thoughts on this, online or off, and I also understand if people don't want to discuss it here or with me at all, or may just dislike it.
