The Jewish People Policy Institute Israel Index survey found that 8 out of 10 Jewish Israelis agreed with Trump’s proposal of expelling Palestinians from Gaza.

Forty-three percent of all Israelis said that the expulsion plan was “practical” and should be implemented, while 30 percent said the plan was “desirable” but not practical.

A minority of 13 percent - made of up 54 percent of Palestinian respondents and just three percent of Jewish Israelis - described the Trump plan as “immoral”.

    Religion still does enable violence. Just because you’re citing a specific example where it arguably did not does not falsify that.

    I thought I made it pretty clear I talking specifically about fascism and its offshoots like Zionism, Nazism and MAGA.

      Zionism is complicated, because “Jewish” can be a religion, nationality, culture, or ethnicity/race, or any combination of the above, depending on who is using the term and in what context.

      MAGA is absolutely strongly correlated with evangelical Christianity in the US.

        “Jewish” can be any of those things, but Zionism pretty explicitly treats Jews as an ethnicity/nationality. This is why even liberal/atheist Jews are considered Jews by Zionists.

        MAGA is absolutely strongly correlated with evangelical Christianity in the US.

        Yes, but did that materially contribute to their fascist rhetoric or actions? From what I know their rhetoric is mostly race and nationality-based, which is why they’re going after immigrants and non-whites rather than atheists and other sects of Christianity. In fact while MAGA is correlated with evangelical Christianity it doesn’t exactly reject atheists, with 27% of voters not affiliated with any religious group being Republican..
