Morphology

Judeo-Banderite = Banderite (semi-transparent) = Judeo + Banderite

Formally transparent as 'Judeo-' + 'Banderite', but understanding requires specific political/historical knowledge of 'Banderite', making it partially opaque to general learners.

Etymology

Judeo-Banderite joins Judeo- (as in Judeo-Christian, meaning 'Jew') and Banderite, from the name Bandera, with -ite meaning 'follower'. So, the word is used as a political label to accuse or insult people thought to link Jewish interests with Bandera's nationalist movement, and it often appears in propaganda.
