Bronze Age Pervert has praised Israel for being "[[national socialist]] through and through" while arguing that Western nationalists should be indifferent to it.<ref name=baz>{{cite web|url=https://religiondispatches.org/meet-the-bronze-age-zionists-far-right-jews-embracing-fascism-in-the-wake-of-10-7/|title=MEET THE 'BRONZE AGE ZIONISTS' — FAR-RIGHT JEWS EMBRACING FASCISM IN THE WAKE OF OCTOBER 7|date=February 12, 2024 }}</ref>
