Still not gone away.

I am becoming more confused with both "Racism and Anti-Semitism".

If someone criticises the state of Israel, how is that deemed as Anti-Semitic, but if they criticises the all religion of Judaism then that is definately anti-semitism that is what I understand.

Surely the United Nations were not being anti-semitic when they criticised Israel's war in Gaza. or were they ?

it was reported yesterday the President Biden had allegedly refered to Benjamin Netanyahu as an a***hole, was he being anti-semitic or just telling the the truth as he sees it.

I suppose it depends on which side of the conflict you fall on.

We are back in the "Freedom of Speech" maelstrom V_C. Azhar Ali the former Labour candidate for Rochdale said something along the lines of "Israel had allowed the October 7 Hamas attack to take place in order to invade Gaza."

I thought exactly the same. The Israeli hard right have waited 20 years for an excuse to level Gaza and occupy the West Bank with even more illegal settlers. Netanyahu's blind eye to the Hamas carnage provided just such an excuse.

I'm at a loss how even thinking this can be labelled as "anti-Semitic".

I opined on this forum the IDF reprisal would be catastrophic for Gaza. Proved to be a bit of an understatement I reckon.
