It isn't anti-Semitism to criticize israel, it's just noticing the obvious.
There are criticisms that are antisemitic. This isn't one of them, though.
The only one I can think of is the idea that the Jews made up the Holocaust to guilt the West into giving up Israel...... Which is indeed antisemetic, and asburd
My favorite was when Bernie Sanders was called antisemitic for criticizing Israel. His response was something along the lines of "It isn't antisemitic to criticize a right-wing government in Israel." It must've taken all the patience in the world to not add "you fucking toolbags".
I'm not a Christian, but if Bernie was the second coming...
I'd be only slightly surprised
Amen, who was it who said that the way to find out what group is getting away with too much bullshit is to look at what group you're not allowed to criticize in any Circle?
