They all give off a strange vibe, very uneasy to look at them, even sinister dare I say so.

This guy was one of the few who looked cool https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Rothschild,_2nd_Baron_Rothschild

I was reading and found this "In 1917, he co-founded the anti-Zionist League of British Jews." which is kind of mind-blowing but probably just spearheading the opposition and a way to rebel against his dad super pro-Zionist dad. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lionel_de_Rothschild_(born_1882)

Then there's this guy who looks like a damn mobster, I am scared of that guy just looking at him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Rothschild,_3rd_Baron_Rothschild

Then the new guy on the other side looks like a musician and he's an environmentalist but still worth $10B because he was Evelyn's kid and Evelyn died in 2022 and was the most powerful in modern day other than Jacob: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Mayer_de_Rothschild

Huh so some of them do look like humans, especially the first two.

Some hardcore orthodox Jews oppose Israel very hard.

I think the inbreeding has gotten bad on Jacob's side of the family in the later generations and it affects their appearance badly. Like a habsberg jaw situation

Yup there are lots of anti-zionist jewish people. Some estimates say 50% of american jews are anti-zionist. It's just amazing to see a rothschild publicly hold that position for decades, as they're basically the reason zionism is known or cared about at all in modern times. They promoted zionism in the 1800s in london so they could make israel with the balfour declaration
