    Israel does not give a single shit about warnings from Europe as they were smart enough to not make their existence dependent on us.

        It is antisemitism when people cannot separate Israel from “jews” and keep screaming “death to the jews” while trying to protest against Israel. And there are many people who criticize Israel’s way of handling this without it being made illegal. So I suspect you belong to that group that just cannot help themselves when trying to protest Israel.

          It cuts both ways, on the one hand you have legit antisemites hiding behind the fig leaf of Israel critique, on the other Israeli rightoids to fascists deliberately confusing being against them with being antisemitic. It shouldn’t be particularly surprising that Kahanites and the like call anything they don’t like antisemitic same as Nazis call anything they don’t like anti-German, they are, after all, the same shit with a different coat of paint.

          But there’s generally an easy solution to that: Be precise. Both sides of the conflict aren’t uniform hive-minds and pretty much whatever position you hold, you’ll find it reflected in either or (preferably!) both, somewhere. Worst thing that could happen is that you do some research and learn something about the local politics :)
