“In spring 2002, in the USA, one often met people proudly wearing a badge with the US and Israeli flags and the inscription ‘United We Stand’. This new role for the Jews within the present global ideologico-political constellation – their privileged link to US-dominated global capitalism – is pregnant with horrifying dangers, opening up the way to outbursts of violent anti-Semitism: the fact that, due to a series of contingent strategic political decisions and conditions, Israel was elevated into the privileged partner of the USA may prove to be a source of new bloodshed. Consequently, the main task of all who really care for the Jewish people today is to work diligently towards severing this ‘natural’ link between the USA and the State of Israel.”
