:::::::Geopolitician, thanks for your links, where Massie does say that "Antisemitism is deplorable, but expanding it to include criticism of Israel is not helpful." Your other link is to a cartoon posted by Massie that I frankly do not understand. Massie's vote was against foreign aid to Israel, which I think he generally opposes. Massie is a courageous conservative and was honored here with [[Conservative of the Year 2022]]. I think saying that he is anti-Zionist would go further than what he's said himself. Thanks for your insights.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] ([[User talk:Aschlafly|talk]]) 01:21, January 1, 2024 (EST)

::::::::The second link is a meme which essentially states that Congress stands for Zionism rather than American patriotism. Many people (both Zionist and anti-Zionist) see this meme as saying that Congress is "Israel first", or even saying that support for Israel is inherently anti-American. Both ideas are commonplace in anti-Zionist circles, which is why Massie is now being accused of being an anti-Zionist.--[[User:Geopolitician|Geopolitician]] ([[User talk:Geopolitician|talk]]) 21:45, January 1, 2024 (EST)
