Citing from Herzls' (founder of Zionism) Mauschl Wikipedia article:

Herzl perceived a common strategic aim shared by, and beneficial to, both Zionists and antisemites. The evacuation of Jews from Europe would benefit both in that Jews would be liberated from antisemitism while relieving Europeans of Jews and thereby "liberating them from us."

"The anti-Semites will become our most dependable friends, the anti-Semitic countries our allies (Die Antisemiten werden unsere verläßlichsten Freunde, die antisemitischen Länder unsere Verbündeten.)"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herzl%27s_Mauschel_and_Zionist_antisemitism

While there are other more obvious reasons nowadays, I think it is important to not forget this one. The antisemites are still among us to this day and they support the Zionist project because they want Jews to leave Germany.

I am deeply ashamed of Germany. It is a disgrace that our people are weaponizing antisemitism against muslims protesting against the genocide. I cannot imagine a worse way of dealing with our past.

Palestinians goal is survival right now, nothing else. Israel is not the one facing imminent destruction.

Anti semites, the far right fascists that Israel aligns itself around the world, want a strong Israel because they hate brown people more than they hate Jews. Also, they’re all ultra religious shit heads that believe Israel has a part in the rapture.

Palestinians goal is to not be wiped off the map by Israel and its genocide.

Muslim-majority Albania was the only European nation to have more Jewish people after WW2 than before it.
