I wonder what definition of antisemitism they use
Just to give an orientation: denying Israel's right to exist, i.e. antizionism, including the Slogan: 'From the river to the sea β Palestina shall be free', counts as antisemitism, while criticising the Israeli government for killing civilians does not. Cheering Hamas killing Israeli civilians counts as appreciation of terror and antisemitism.
Ok whoever the fuck came up with this definition is
a) an absolute moron, b) a supporter of fascist ideology and
c) against free speech
Yes, if you accept the definition of antisemitism preferred by the Israeli government, that's true.
It doesn't make it true in the real world.
As it should, this phrase and it's Israeli counterpart "between the sea and the Jordan there will be only Israeli sovereignty" are often accompanied by calls for mass deportation at best and genocide at worst.
These sentences are not bad on their own, but the parties from which they originate (Hamas and Likud) have transparent desires for war crimes and genocide.
I am unsure whether the Israeli counterpart is counted as incitement of popular hatred (Volksverhetzung) in Germany yet, specifically if it has been classified as such by a court.
It's not. Israel is an Apartheid state and can't exist as anything but an Apartheid state.
