The defeat of Andrew Cuomo by Zohran Mamdani has sparked claims of antisemitism in response to his campaign. There are renewed calls to scrutinize statements by supporters that could be deemed antisemitic. The narrative suggests focusing less on Israel itself and more on US military and political support of Israel, portraying the US as complicit in actions against Palestinians. Additionally, the rise of Christian Zionism within the GOP is presented as a powerful bloc influencing US policy making.
The contention that the US is in the driver's seat with Israel as the 'cop on the beat' is an old and musty one from the 1990s that has not aged well.
The malignant growth of end-times Christian Zionism has metastasized within the GOP over the last 15 years, becoming central to decision making in foreign and domestic policy.
