Numbers wise it would be generous to say that Neturei Karta represent less than 0.3% of Jews. Their outlook is pure eschatological fundamentalism and they are extremists who have lent support to Islamists and Holocaust deniers. /1
They do however look very Jewish, especially if you only know about Jews from antisemitic propaganda. So they are marvellous Token Jews for anyone wishing to deflect claims of antisemitism. /2
This would be a bit like if Tommy Robinson found an imam that was prepared to smile in photos with him and thereby be protected from claims of anti-Muslim bigotry./3
Jewish opinion spans a massive range but let& #39;s stop pretending that outlying views are representative. /4
Given the recent shout out to Neturei Karta let me add that they are religious fundamentalists whose opposition to Israel is based on opposition to a secular state. They are waiting for the Messiah to come and give them a religious state based on Scriptural borders. /5
There is absolutely nothing progressive about them. /7
Case in point, imagine posting this and thinking it lets Farrakhan off the hook for antisemitism, rather than understanding what it means about the ideology of Neturei Karta.
