On this edition of Parallax Views, The Nation magazine's National Affairs correspondent Jeet Heer joins the show to discuss the Gaza War and his article "Why the Anti-Defamation League Loves Certain Bigots". Recently, the ADL's Jonathan Greenblat embraced Twitter/X's Elon Musk, despite Musk's spreading of antisemitic conspiracy theories, because Musk said that words and phrases like "decolonization" and "from the river to the sea" would result in banning from the platform. We will discuss that as well as the more checkered elements of the Anti-Defamation League's history such as the Roy Bullock spying scanadal involving the South African apartheid regime and the case of the Los Angeles 8 (7 Muslim men and one Kenyan woman). We'll also talk about the Gaza war, insurgencies and how counter-insurgency wars are fought, the parallels between the rise of the far-right in the U.S. and the far-right in Israel, and much, much more!
