August 17, 2020The Chilean anti-Semitic balloon burst
…
We Israeli Chileans are left with the satisfaction of seeing the anti-Semitic balloon burst in the face of those parliamentarians who invested time paid for by resources of all Chileans in seeking to harm a democratic state 13,000 kilometers away, based on media rumors, rumors that they became conditions for a peace agreement.
We hope that the new Chile, post-social outbreak and post-pandemic, knows how to monitor its political representatives, those who seek political warfare as a payment currency before some local extremist factions, instead of cooperation and the advancement of the peoples. The United Arab Emirates chose a path, let’s hope that Chilean parliamentarians know how to choose a similar one.

If Palestinian-Chileans are happy that the Chilean government is considering a boycott of West Bank (Judea and Samaria) products (Click Here), then Jewish-Chileans are countering with the success of the recent Israel-UAE diplomatic embrace, which they see as the more important development.
What is clear is that while Palestinians have influence in Chile, there is still a small “remnant” of Jews in Chile who have some say, even if they are outnumbered by Palestinians (about 30 to 1).
The writer of the opinion piece, Gabriel Colodro, is taking a stab at those Chilean parliamentarians who have supported BDS.
