Not expecting a miracle. Gonna take push back from the United States for Israel to get in line. Labor ed up and needs a better leader.

Maybe I'm wrong, but hasn't Labor been in slow decline since Rabin? If so, then the blame is better directed towards the inability of a new left party to rise from it's ashes.

It wasn't a slow decline, it was a fast decline due to the failure of Ehud Barak to get the Intifada under control. Labor lost the public's trust on security issues and never got it back.

It's not even a good take. Lots of white nationalists find common cause with anti-zionists. Ahed Tamimi's white-presenting features were a huge clarion call for David Duke in particular. Tying Zionism/anti-Zionism to other forms of racism doesn't quite work, because anti-semitism has always very much been its own thing and functioned differently from other bigotries.
