      Lol! Except she’s clearly not a Zionist. Saying that we should be engaging this issue from a leftist perspective isn’t some endorsement of Zionism. It’s the opposite.

          Mentioning Zionism isn’t an endorsement of Zionism. She specifically talks about her “progressive vision” of how to address this conflict. When has it ever been a “progressive” position to endorse or support Zionism?

          In order to make what she’s saying, mean what you think it means, you have to assume all the words she’s using mean the opposite of what they usually mean. It makes no sense.

          Is she trying to use nuanced language, in order to avoid giving this right-wing interviewer some kind of sound-bite that can be used against her…and us? Yes. But she’s also not saying anything close to what everyone here seems to be criticizing her for.
