      If they were given their own settler colony and started being treated as an equal by all the other white countries? Yes.

      I wouldn’t consider a European Jew before the formation of Israel to be white, but they’re sure as fuck white now.

        If someone of white European heritage burns down a synagogue frequented by what you consider people of white European heritage, would you still consider that racist given they’re the same race? Or would you consider that less racist than someone burning down a church frequented by black people?

          It is almost like Jewish people have a conditional relationship with whiteness. The idf soldiers bombing children’s hospitals certainly are capital W White.
