My privilege as a white Jewish American in Israel is a major factor in getting me so much access to the key institutions of the Jewish state.

There's still massive racism in the United States today that is rooted in sexual fears, but it's at least considered unacceptable. In Israel it's a mainstream phenomenon that's encouraged and supported by the state because it supports Israel's demographic imperative in its ethnocratic political structure.

After a few months you stop noticing every incarnation of radicalism and violence. It is so saturated into your reality that it practically fades into the scenery.

I think we need to draw a contextual distinction between what the neo-fascists of Europe would like to do and what the state of Israel has done.

You can be a bigot in the US, but you can't come out and openly declare your support for racial nationalism.

If we don't kill, we will cease to exist

There will be no Palestinian state
