Absolutely, criticism of Israel is not antisemitism per se. Criticizing Israel for something they do is perfectly reasonable. However, criticizing Israel for existing or being Jewish is antisemitism. Generally, most criticism of what Israel does, especially in the meeting rooms of the UN and in the US political arena is based on propaganda and thus, antisemitic.

But the intifada continues on perpetuity and those people that are killed or injured are considered Heroes and martyrs as well as every single rocket that gets through the Iron Dome. Upwards of two to four thousand Rockets been fired at Israel from the Gaza Strip in The Last 5 Years. The UN and most of the Free World Turns a blind eye to this. Well BDS wants to strangle Israel, the US military was buying the Iron Dome systems from Israel and Rafael Industries . Now the world's buying the trophy vehicle defense against RPGs and other anti-tank systems..The BDS movement is crapping their pants and they have to go to Costco to buy more depends.

There was talk that even Saudi Arabia made by some of these systems. Maybe they'll be sold through a third party. The US military is testing out some of them. So the Bravo Delta Sierra movement can pound salt!

Lot's of things Israel does that I don't like but I'm not saying that they don't have a right to exist. If they weren't such d!cks when it came to expanding their settlements I'd have a lot more sympathy for them.

Arabs and Iran want the Jews dead...Iran wants to wipe Israel off the map. That is why Israel used the stuxnet to damage their nuke program 10 years ago.

LTC (Join to see) - I don't have a problem with them defending themselves. They have a pretty impressive record when it comes to that surrounded by a lot of very unfriendly nations.

It's really them continuing to expand settlements that I have a problem with. As long as they continue to do that there is no way the Palestinians can ever agree to a peaceful resolution, even if they wanted to.

I'm also not a fan of their religious extremists, but that exists in a lot of countries and isn't really something that I see as a unique problem to them.

Interesting how the author uses Israelites and Israel in the same sentence when the Jews in the State of Israel are not Israelites but Israeli's- Under the heading of “A brief History of the Terms for Jew” in the 1980 Jewish Almanac is the following: “Strictly speaking it is incorrect to call an Ancient Israelite a ‘Jew’ or to call a contemporary Jew an Israelite or a Hebrew.” (1980 Jewish Almanac, p. 3).
So as you can see by their own admission in their own Almanac they are telling you that they are not the Israelites.

Thanks for something that would have gone over my head.
