6. I Have No "Allegiance To Israel"

It's kind of a shock to me that I'm supposed to have one -- I don't like their leadership, I don't like what they're doing. If any of that makes me "anti" anything, sorry, it's just my genuine feelings.

I have an "allegiance" to PEACE AND JUSTICE, as much for Israel as for anybody -- but I don't like either US or Israeli "exceptionalist" thinking, (ie, WMD is OK for us, not them; ignoring the UN is OK for us, not them) nor am I convinced that Gawd cares where anybody lives.

It annoys me that over and over again anything other than a 100% blank check to Israeli aggression is "anti-Jewish."
