Then you are basically implying the state of Israel can't exist without genocide, ethnic cleansing and apartheid.

Most of these protesters want a one state solution that doesn't discriminate between people based on religion or ethnicity.

Or they want a two state solution where a Palestinian army can protect Palestinians against Israel stealing their land, denying them health care and imprisoning their families.

I don't think that's what I'm implying though. I'm all for signs that say "end the genocide" or "equality for Palestinians."

I think my question is, does the sign in the thumbnail imply that the state of Israel can't exist without genocide?

I think it absolutely can, and that's why I was questioning the message on the sign, as it seems to oppose what you claim most of the protestors want.

If that's what you believe, then you don't actually disagree with the sign.

You only disagree with the narrative that the sign must be anti-Semitic.

Welcome to our world.
