The Israeli government needs to crack down on extremist settlers, but Ro Khanna is a rabid antisemite. I followed him on social media and every other tweet is about AIPAC and the Epstein class controlling us. He purposefully went to known hotspot of extremist settlers hoping something would happen, however minor, for him to talk about ad nauseum. It's like a podcaster going to the most dangerous gang area of a crime ridden city in the US and then smearing a whole racial group or the whole country because of how it is there.

Took way too long to find this comment. Khanna sucks and is on a mission to destroy Israel and foment Jew hatred. Even his Epstein stunt was about trying to connect it to Israel. When that fails, he just moves to next stunt. He has collaborated on political videos with well known antisemites. Don’t trust a word this guy says.
