Show Notes
Jews against Israel have been front and centre in the antizionist movement, their voices featured regularly in media coverage about the conflict.
Their very existence lends credibility to the assertion that antizionism is not antisemitic.

But how representative are they of the Jewish community as a whole? Is their presence being weaponized against Jewish institutions, or are they willingly weaponizing their own Jewishness? And what do these individuals have to say about the presence of antisemitism in their movement?
Dave Meslin is a self-described antizionist Jew. He sits down for an in-depth interview.
CORRECTION (November 27, 2025): an earlier version of this episode mistakenly reported that a group of protesters shouted racist slogans while marching with Palestine Youth Movement at their October 4th, 2025 demonstration. While these protesters were demonstrating on October 4th at the advertised site of the PYM event, they did not in fact participate in the march.
