Never would have found that. Poked around, interesting:

Thanks, apparently others didn't appreciate or understand it, heh

All of the lyrics that reference it are talking about the country, the government and its president. If them being pictured as making a financial trade with the US president is an "anti-semitic trope", it becomes impossible to satirize these real-world events. Is there a different real trope that I missed?

"The Jews are secretly running things to the detriment of the common person" has been a right-wing conspiracy theory for a long time, going well before even the invention of modern politics.

With that said, I think the video, looked at as a propaganda piece, threads the needle about as well as possible - it sticks strictly to referring to Israel as a country, but also just as importantly frames Trump as the primary actor rather than taking direction from Israel.


Equating the government and its president to Jews in general is a massive disservice, and truly antisemitic, towards the hundreds of thousands of Jews[0] who directly oppose them. The video showed the former. I realize that the second part of your comment means you're not doing so, but the person saying that the video at that timestamp showed an anti-semitic trope, was doing so.
