MidEast American

I post religious, philosophical, and sociopolitical content with a focus on Israel, the Middle East, and American politics from an intersectional perspective: gay conservative libertarian Jewish convert immigrant and racial minority for most of my life.  I keep dancing when hypocritical ignoranuses laughably call me homophobe or Nazi, projecting their own bigotry onto the object of their zenophobia.

* studied in Jewish seminary (yeshiva) for 8 years; 
* fluent in Hebrew, working knowledge of Aramaic, basic Arabic; 
* lived in Israel since 2003 - nearly half my life.

I don't claim Jewish ancestry and yet so-called 'racist' Israel granted me full citizenship (ie: I have Middle Eastern nationality).

My first significant exposure to Jews was from staunchly anti-Semitic sources, outside of my family.
Now that I'm fluent in Hebrew and have studied Talmudic literature in depth, I know that most anti-Jewish claims are laughable.
