The money quote and one worth printing and saving:

the quasi-religious belief of these groups (the left) that “the world will only be “liberated” by the downfall of America and the defeat of the Jews. This chiliastic fantasy has today emerged as a notable point of fusion between the radical anti-Zionist left in the West and the global jihad. Revolutionary anti-Semitism has become an increasingly important factor in cementing the anti-capitalist populism much as it was during the birth pangs of modern socialism over 150 years ago.”

" It also relates to the extraordinarily disproportionate number of socialist thinkers and leaders who were of Jewish origin and seeks to explain what motivated so many of them, in the course of their utopian and futile efforts to ‘repair the world’, to abandon their people and their heritage and frenetically seek to deny their kinsmen the right to self-determination.

A most interesting connection between the Jewish tenet of "tikkun olam" (repairing the world), the persistence of Jewish adherence to the left perhaps influenced by this doctrine, and the destructive efforts of radical leftists to re-engineer society, either through their own efforts, or through agents like Hussein Obama.

Wistrich demonstrates the extent to which today’s radical anti-Zionists, despite purporting to represent the left, often share the identical obsessions and delusions concerning the alleged malignant influence of the Jews in the modern world as classical fascist anti-Semites.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Why the confusion? Why say, “..**despite**purporting to represent the left...”

The reason is quite clear! Those on the left are collectivists. They are ride the same collectivist train that communists, fascists, progressives, and liberals are riding. The final destination? Answer: Tyranny!
