      According to Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) - which describes itself as the largest progressive Jewish anti-Zionist organisation in the world - more Jewish Americans, both young and old, “are anti-Zionist (more) than ever before”.

      “Jewish Voice for Peace is an anti-Zionist organisation (and has been since 2019) and we’re very public about that,” Sonya Meyerson-Knox, the communications director at JVP, told Middle East Eye.

      Knox explained that across the board since 7 October, JVP has doubled or more in terms of membership, supporters, followers, and people simply signing up to take action. src
