I haven't finished the episode yet, but the main point seems beyond obvious. It's shocking that anyone can miss it.
What's shocking to me is how, still (especially among the older crowd that identify as conservative) Israel is still completely, 100%, the underdog hero.
And any skepticism of Israel is immediately antisemitic.
I had 3 individuals come up to me a couple months back, when allegations were first made that Israel was behind the assassination of Charlie Kirk. These were people that I know, conservative, and either Jewish or married to Jewish people. They all said, "isn't it crazy how much antisemitism there is now?".
I thought it was strange at the time, but then I realized - it was probably a letter from the ADL that they all got, telling them to ask people this question.
Because I got a letter not long after that from Prager University, along the same lines. Before the Charlie Kirk assassination, I had no idea that Prager University was mostly funded by, and probably founded by, pro-Israel groups.

I'm really curious how the Boomers almost all fell for the "Israel is our greatest ally" line.
It's so obviously false and none of them have an answer for what we get out of the arrangement that comes anywhere close to the importance of our relationships with Canada or the UK, say.
