    What you mean back on the menu?

    Pretty much genocide is what Israelis were doing the entire time. Now it’s gonna be under the guise of a war. I feel bad for Palestinian civilians.

    As opposed to previously, when Israel respected Palestinians and their borders.

    This is a geopolitical version of “I’m not touching you” that involves sniping the limbs off of children.

      I just read it. Which part exactly (please quote) do you think supports what you claimed?

      Here’s the link to the definition, which includes some examples: What is antisemitism? About the IHRA non-legally binding working definition of antisemitism

      I’ll make it even easier. Here is the full text of the definition:

      Antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifestations of antisemitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities.

      I think we can still point out israeli war crimes without being called antisemitic under that definition.

        Being critical of the Israeli State and IDF is actually a very mainstream, well-accepted opinions in my experience. For instance Netanyahu’s fascistic bullshit is widely criticized, even within Israel.

        However, Hamas apology or antisemitic remarks are not acceptable; so whenever someone says “we can’t even criticize Israel!! Freedom of speech!!1!!”, I strongly suspect that they’ve done either of these things and got a righteous clapback.
