The person who bought Mojo instead of Coca-Cola as a boycott is the same person who is now buying Argentina's flags and jerseys. Arguing, and some are even having fierce fights.
Yet Argentina is the main center of J/e/w/s in Latin America. About two hundred thousand J/e/w/s still live there. Who live in the country's capital and hold many important positions in Argentina. It can be said that they belong to the elite class of Argentina.
Argentina's relationship with Israel is quite old. At one time, Argentina was one of the countries considered as an alternative settlement for European J/e/w/s. And among Latin American countries, Argentina was the first to recognize Israel.
However, Argentina's relationship with Israel has become stronger during the time of Argentina's current president, Javier Milei, who chose Israel as his first foreign visit after being elected.
About whom The New York Times wrote, "The Catholic President Who’s ‘Almost’ Jewish".
Milei has claimed that he is of Jewish descent on his mother's side. They discovered his grandfather was Jewish before he died. Milei himself is also fond of the Jewish religion. Now it is difficult to understand whether that is his political stunt or entirely true.
He said that the Jewish religion might provide the answer to solving Argentina's economic crisis.
As the president of Catholic-majority Argentina and despite growing up in a Catholic family, he had labeled Pope Francis as "stupid" and a "filthy leftist". Later, of course, he apologized.
Again, while visiting the Vatican, Milei told an Italian television station, "I am Catholic, although I am almost a follower of the Jewish religion."
A few days ago, while visiting Israel, he made an Isaac Accord agreement like the Abraham Accords. At the same time, he moved the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
All in all, as a state, Argentina is a close friend of Israel. We, as M/u/s/l/i/m/s, are fighting for that country. Even after being unemployed, we are hoisting huge flags by spending money from our own pockets. We forget everything, very quickly. Because our protest is just following the trend.
