Way to easy to paint any criticism about Israel as hatred towards Jews. Lobby groups with big money define the limits of the discourse.
This article is about Jews who aren't Israeli. Stop derailing the conversation.
It is also about conflating legitimate antisemitic hatred with anti-Zionist sentiments. look at how EU countries are banning Pro Palestine Protest under the pretext that those protesting are systematically anti-Jews. look at how UK's Suella Braveman is trying to quash any criticism of Israel actions under the banner of antisemitism and is working on passing lopsided authoritarian laws to imprison any critics of Israel's genocidal records.
can you point out where the article is about the things youre saying its about
saying "anti-Semitism is on the rise" is not equal to saying "anti zionism is anti-semitism", and recognising that anti-semitism is on the rise says nothing about someones stance on israel, palestine or the genocide going on there
Yes, but we're the comments made while they were protesting with regard to these events? We're they actually anti-semitic, or anti-zionist or anti-Israeli? Those are all different things. Israel would say anyone who expresses the latter two opinions is the former, but that just isn't the case.
Literally saw a comment here the other day saying that Jews think it’s their turn to commit genocide because of the holocaust
You just painted any hatred towards Jews as criticism of Israel and blamed rich lobbyists.
Let's not make the same mistake, but in reverse.
