Thanks, Al for the Intercept articles. In particular, the article about the ADL's attacks on Jewish peace groups provides some much-needed context for the discussion here.
As I'm sure many people are aware, there is actually a long history going back to the early 20th century of Jewish opposition to the dispossession of the Palestinian people. On that history, I highly recommend this interview from 2020 with scholar Benjamin Balthaser about the history of Jewish, working-class anti-Zionism in the 1930s and 1940s, the Cold War erasure of that history, and how the past can be a cultural resource we can use today:
