The Right’s Civil War Over Israel
*Become a patron to get Francesca's exclusive postscript* MAGA rarely disagrees. But blind support and billions of dollars to Israel is becoming a wedge issue on the right, just as it is on the left. Only very very different. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Candace Owens, and Tucker Carlson are all openly speaking out against Israel much to the chagrin of conservative and Christian Zionists. Francesca explains the rift between neoconservatives and the growing chorus of “groypers” who are actually antisemitic. Republicans have rarely questioned supporting military aggression abroad. But after two years of a genocide the public opinion around Israel among the conservative base is shifting rapidly. And politicians and podcasters are fanning the flames. It all came to a head when Tucker Carlson interviewed Holocaust denying white nationalist Nick Fuentes and had very little pushback. That somehow was a bridge too far for some conservatives and now people like Ben Shapiro are trying to put the hateful cat back in the bag. One they have let out over and over again. While the left and students protesting against war have been called antisemitic by the media, or detained for speaking out, there is real antisemitism growing unabated on the right.

The Right’s Civil War Over Israel
Summary
*Become a patron to get Francesca's exclusive postscript*
MAGA rarely disagrees. But blind support and billions of dollars to Israel is becoming a wedge issue on the right, just as it is on the left. Only very very different. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Candace Owens, and Tucker Carlson are all openly speaking out against Israel much to the chagrin of conservative and Christian Zionists. Francesca explains the rift between neoconservatives and the growing chorus of “groypers” who are actually antisemitic.
Republicans have rarely questioned supporting military aggression abroad. But after two years of a genocide the public opinion around Israel among the conservative base is shifting rapidly. And politicians and podcasters are fanning the flames.
It all came to a head when Tucker Carlson interviewed Holocaust denying white nationalist Nick Fuentes and had very little pushback. That somehow was a bridge too far for some conservatives and now people like Ben Shapiro are trying to put the hateful cat back in the bag. One they have let out over and over again.
