Chabadniks aren't explicitly Zionist and run the gambit from supporting Israel to denouncing it. They're crazy for their own reasons, but lumping them in with Israel just because they're Jews is a bad look.

I'm pretty old to never have been corrected on that before, thanks.

The Hasdic community in Brooklyn is notoriously right wing, and even have their own "police" who harras anyone from outside the community who comes into the area...

If they disagree with Israel on anything, it's probably because they think Israel isn't going far enough or aren't acting fast enough. If you have any source of them condemning Israel for the right reasons, by all means teach me something.

As far as I'm concerned, far right Abrahamic extremists are all the same, they're all doing terrible shit in the name of the exact same god, usually against each other, but tons of Innocents get caught in the crossfire.

I don't care which prophet they follow

Edit:

Might as well throw some links about this community
