    This is probably a dumbass question, but why do so many Israeli people I see look like generic Californian white people? Is it just cosmetic trends or what?

      Americans are European and many Israeli Jews are also just Europeans. Three hundred years back both their ancestors were all living in Poland.

      the zionism that ended up creating isreal was originally created by europeans who wanted the jews to leave europe by creating a homeland for them to go to.

      it had morphed into prominent european jews into wanting it for themselves and jewish people everywhere becomes part of the cutlures they originate from – like everyone else does – and that includes white people style racism.

      They are first and foremost an ideology, a white supremacist one that emerged in the late 1800s and had direct ties to Nazi Germany itself.

      Judaism is just another shield. They even tried to sterilise other non-white Jews they hated just because.

      Let no one fool you, they are as secularist as you can get, with plenty of cultism stuffed in too.
