well if the students who were protesting genocide were actually marching around with swastikas and tiki torches, then No they would Not have the fucking right. but if you think the existence of an anti-war anti-genocide sit-in is antisemitic you are brainwashed beyond repair. get real
and if you think calling to fight against a rogue ethno-state which has displaced MILLIONS and murdered untold #s is antisemitic, you are also still brainwashed into exactly what the (christian) zionists who support the state of israel want you to believe. israel does Not represent the jewish people
Israel isn’t rogue. It’s a state legally recognized by the UN and most countries. Jordan ethnically cleansed all its Jews in 1921 and again from the West Bank and Jerusalem in 1948. Is it rogue?
Antisemitism is not just tiki torches. Antisemitism is blood libel and Holocaust inversion, which you are doing alongside everybody else accusing Israel of genocide
you are absolutely wrong. an entire religion suffered an immense, cataclysmic, horrendous trauma. but it is not that same entire religion that is committing an ethnic cleansing. christian racism/racism has co-opted the name of judaism for political ends. read about evangelicals, why they support it
Sorry, you're right. They’re just doing ethnic cleansing, indiscriminate bombing, and illegally settling in Palestine. You're right, that's so much better...
israel itself treats its holocaust survivors like GARBAGE. israel USED THEM and kicked them to the curb, homeless and in poverty. they scrounge on the floor for food. you are pathetic to use them as a a shield just like israel does.
Having been victims does not immunize you from being able to become an offender.
When the accusations is based on verified evidence then it's justified, for example based on the admissions of IDF that they allow dozens of civilians deaths per each low level *suspected* Hamas member
If you want actual cases of antisemitism to be taken seriously, it's best not to use it as a cudgel against opinions on Israeli actions you merely disagree with. It cheapens the charge.
Swastikas and tiki torches are protected by the first amendment. They were doing that they would still have the right to protest.
That's not what they're doing. They're protesting the genocide that Israel is carrying out. Criticizing Israel is not inherently anti-semitic
The people who did that weren't part of the students protesting, all evidence points to them being outsiders. But the students who protested peacefully is being punished for what random outsiders did.
A lot of people here doesn't see the irony of applying collective punishment
He said "Zionists don't deserve to live," which is not something I think he should have said, BUT it should not be equated with "terrorizing U.S. Jewish students." Naomi Klein recently denounced the false idol of Zionism, and she is certainly not trying to terrorize Jews. She is one.
I don't like or agree w. his comments, except 4 his equating of Zionist goals with that of White Supremacists,but I haven't seen any that targeted Jews rather than Zionists. Since every Jew I know despises Zionism,I don't equate the two as the Republicans,the main stream media and apparently you do.
probably losing the election with genocide, austerity and eugenics isn’t enough, i need to do kent state 2 electric boogaloo so i definitely lose the election
It's incredible that the Israel/Palestine issue has such a Trumpian effect on the mainstream liberal establishment, in that it serves as the focus for abandonment of basic principles (or exposing they were never quite real in the first place).
