    Ideology

    Revisionist Zionism

    Anti-imperialism

    Anti-British sentiment

    From 1944: National Bolshevism

    So liberals like fantasizing about “tankies” being nazbols when one of the most prominent nazbols were Israeli Zionists

    Also, “anti imperialism” lol

    I really wonder why mainstream news sources run inadvertent apologia for Nazi sympathizers…

    the positions of the west are the positions of the nazis with a tattered veneer of civility so it follows that the folks alive and in combat during world war 2 alive today that supports their policy goals almost always has some unsavory history involving the third reich think-about-it

    Lehi were a bunch of fucking assholes but they weren’t Nazi sympathizers as such. It was an “enemy of my enemy” deal - They’d fight the British in Palestine if the Nazis provided support. I think they knocked it off after word got out about the Holocaust.

      There is a fairly grim side to the holocaust and these sorts of Zionists, that has become tainted by revisionist history and people with various intentions trying to expose or bury a sordid history, but many prominent Zionists saw the tragedy as a small price to pay to get what they wanted.

      You might pick up that this sort of ruthless sacrifice really sets the tone as far as explaining the atrocities of the next 80+ years.
