Wait ... let me get this right.

A Nazi supporting Israel!?

Israel is an ethnostate, for some fascists that makes it cool despite being full of Jewish people. Don't think too hard about it, they certainly don't

Nazis want jews "somewhere else" and so do zionists

The whole point of the Balfour Declaration was to get Jews out of Britain because Balfour was an antisemite. The alliance of zionists and antisemites goes way back.

Most likely there to sow discord between two groups he hates.

This isn't weird at all. Israel is an ethnostate. Nazis also famously love concentrating Jews in one place.

The love goes both ways, BTW. Netanyahu has defended Hitler, saying that the Holocaust wasn't his idea.

“Hitler didn’t want to exterminate the Jews at the time, he wanted to expel the Jews,” Netanyahu said Tuesday at the 37th Zionist Congress, according to a transcript on his website. “And Haj Amin al-Husseini went to Hitler and said, ‘If you expel them, they’ll all come here.’

“‘So what should I do with them?’ (Hitler) asked. (Husseini) said, ‘Burn them.’”

(source)

And he's palled around with other far-right European dictators.

It's more likely than you think! Zionists were the only sanctioned Jewish organizations in Nazi Germany and even had a trade/population transfer agreement with mandatory Palestine, evading the international boycott of Germany that was supported by most of the Jewish diaspora.

Yeah they want all races to be separate, so, supporting Israel is up their alley. The next step in their logic is to have all Jews go to Israel and stay there. Black people go to Africa, various Asians go to their respective Asian countries, etc., etc. The only exception, of course, is that white people get to keep the Americas. Of course. They’re also just fine with other races warring and killing each other, as you could imagine.

It is internally consistent. It's disingenuous support to further a growing global anti-Semitic sentiment. Hurting some brown people in the process is just a bonus.

Anyone who supports the Netanyahu regime should take a long hard look at the other groups on the same side (sorta like the conservatives who say that those same neo-Nazis don't represent them....) They think they're making Israel safe, but they're really just eroding international support. It's not great when fucking Nazis have a clearer long-term view of the consequences of your actions than you do.
