Someone who disagrees with our current actions in the middle east but is (to an unknown degree) buying into the idea that Israel is controlling the USA.

    There’s a world of difference between “Israel is vital the US’s plans in the middle east and is given a lot more leeway than their other more spineless (and less useful) vassals” and “Israel are the sinister puppet masters behind the curtain controlling everything bad in the world ever and the only solution is that the untermensch Juden must be destroyed.”

    To a layperson with no historical or material understanding, ideas of “Israel gets away with things because they control the US, not the other way around.” will just convince them that the Nazis were right all along. Our goal is to educate, not to provide more ammo for fascists.
