instrumentalization

Cynically using a minority group as an instrument to attack one's political rivals. Commonly done by the right, which has zero concern for Jews (as evidenced by their entire politics) but likes to use us as a weapon.

If you thought the instrumentalization of Jews to attack Ilhan Omar was bad, watch as the utterly unscrupulous GOP tries to instrumentalize Jews to attack... Bernie... Sanders?!?!
