Progressive Democrats warn of antisemitism threat as Israel's democratic leanings become major test

Israel's growing Democratic leanings have raised concerns among Jewish progressives, who warn that the shift may lead to an increased tilt towards antisemitism. Rep. Becca Balint and Sen. Bernie Sanders are leading efforts to cut US arms sales to Israel, while others have spoken out against the country's war in Gaza as a genocide. The warning comes from a group of progressive Jewish Americans who fear their voices will be silenced by the party's increasing leftward shift. As a result, they're calling for greater representation and inclusivity within the Democratic Party.
