  1. I think you are pretty much on the right path. There's all sorts of factors in racism.. There's a few things in this rant (for want of a better word) where Noura Erakat is pretty incredulous. Particularly for a university professor in International Relations (at Rutgers). She seems to not understand some basic concepts. 1) She paints racism as a white only problem. Yes White Supremacists are a blight on human society, but they are far from the only racists in human society. Its actually sourced from inter-tribalism and has been around since the dawn if history. Anytime you get a tribe or cultural group (for whatever reason) victimising in any way people of another tribe or cultural group you have basic racism. Anyone who's done even a basic sociology course learns that. 2) She repeatedly referred to Christian Zionists. Then in the transcript at 4;26 she says _"I don't even know what to call them."_ I find that utterly incredulous because the vast majority of Trump's Evangelical base are "Christian Nationalists" and in fact people like Marjorie Taylor Greene have openly declared themselves as "Christian Nationalists." How is it that an American University Professor with here resume NOT know this? Other than that I do think she's raised 2 really interesting questions: 1) What's the real political motivation for America's unflinching support for Israel? 2) What's the real motivation FOR SOME (not all) of the American Christian Fundamentalist support for Israel?
