SATISH SHARMA - not just Rotigraphy.: “In a lot of campuses, Israel is in the same moral bucket as the KKK and the Nazis, right?

NEW | Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz describes her post–October 7 campus intervention tour to save Jewish students who reject Zionism. She describes college students who separate antisemitism from antizionism as “irrational” and confused, and in need of realignment, so they can accept their love for Israel once again.

Here’s what Sarah says she learned: “In a lot of campuses, Israel is in the same moral bucket as the KKK and the Nazis, right? So if I said to you, Jonah, look, I’m a Nazi, sure, but I’m a liberal Nazi. That’s insane, right? Or, oh, I’m in the KKK, but I don’t hate minorities. Like, that’s monstrous. Like, come on. We’re not gonna have a conversation about that. And that’s what I think a lot of students on campus hear when a Jewish student says, well, look, ‘I’m a Zionist.’ ‘I’m a liberal Zionist. I care about Palestinian rights.’ It’s like Israel is now so evil, so untouchable, that there’s no point of contact you can have with it, just like there’s no point of contact you can have with the KKK or Nazis. And once you’re in that level of irrationality, there’s no conversation to be had.” (
