But, again, one could have negative attitudes towards Jews in general and still value the alliance with Israel. Or the explanation may lie less in the breadth of his hostility to Jews and more in the shallowness of his love of America. It characterizes Jews, particularly successful in America, as therefore particularly unfair beneficiaries of white privilege. And he construes the Jew-hatred as aimed at countering the integrationist, meritocratic agenda of the mid-twentieth century American Black leadership and their followers, smearing them – and their aspirations – for their connections to American Jews. It is ultimately, as originally suggested, a politics built on hating Jews more than loving America.
