One has three syllables the other has one (unless she dragged it out to feel "dirty"). The two words don't sound alike but to people like Hajiag, they mean the same thing. No doubt well meaning "as-a-Jews" will gladly accept her pseudo-apology and from there antiracists everywhere will be expected to do so -- because that's what everyone, especially antisemites like Hajaiag and their apologists expect from us. Meanwhile no one expects anything but the lamest excuses form them. Well if she meant to say “Zionists” then why did she say “Jews”?

Zionist control means Jewish control.

So she meant to say:

“The control of America, just like the control of most Western countries, is in the hands of Zionist money and if Zionist money controls their country then you cannot expect anything else.”

This is an improvement?
