Again this on-purpose confusing of "antisemitism" with "criticising Israeli politics". It would have been antisemitic if it was "Jews not welcome". Putting both in one pot is the key tactic to make IDF war crimes or Israeli settlers driving out Palestinians in-criticisable.

Criticism of Israel is not antisemitic

I have many Jewish friends and a respectful disdain for most all religions… I love learning the practices and beliefs of various mythologies that have been created and conjured by those trying to hold and justify power over their people, especially the stories in their religious texts identifying ways to be good human beings in an unfair world.

Jews are pretty cool, and I love how knowledge and education are generally highly valued.

Fuck the Israeli government.

[–] vala@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This isn't anti-Semitic. Stop it.

[–] thedruid@lemmy.world 55 points 1 day ago (2 children)

As others have said. Disagreeing with Israeli policy is not any semetic at all.

[–] iopq@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This is not about policy, Israelis didn't choose to be born there

[–] SaltySalamander@fedia.io 13 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Israel is a democracy. They chose their government. Reap what you sow and all that.

[–] iopq@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

So if you're a Palestinian Israeli, who in no way supports the government or voted for it, you get to be discriminated against?

Would it be fair to ban Americans because one disagrees with Trump?

Was it fair to bomb Germans because of Hitler?

Is it fair to sanction a country because of it's leadership?

[–] iopq@lemmy.world -5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Would it be fair to ban Jewish Germans from universities?

[–] FelixCress@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

How exactly is it comparable?

[–] iopq@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There are Palestinian Israelis

[–] FelixCress@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And? How is it related to what you said?

[–] iopq@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Because banning Germans from the US in 1939 would exclude Jewish refugees from Germany from the US too

Excluding Israelis also excludes people who are ethnically Arab from Israel

We didn't discriminate against German Jews, why should we discriminate against Israeli Arabs?

[–] FelixCress@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Who is "we" and what's your point?

[–] iopq@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Americans didn't discriminate against all Germans during WW2, why should they discriminate against all Israelis when the US is not even at war with Israel?

[–] FelixCress@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

Americans

What are you even talking about?

[–] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago

Many countries are already boycotting lots of American stuff. Nothing racial about it.

I could easily see a business saying no Israeli citizens allowed but still welcome American Jews with Israeli heritage. Still not antisemitic.

[–] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 31 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Israel calls for Political accountability... This must be a joke! That said, this is not antisemitism. This may indeed be political accountability!

Mixing religion and nationality is the excuse

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Sucks to be the small minority of anti-genocide Israelis, but yeah you reap what you sow.

[–] iopq@lemmy.world -3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Did they have signs against Russians?

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

They should

[–] rumimevlevi@lemmings.world 24 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Keep wasting your time with your dumb israeli propaganda

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social 1 points 1 day ago

Oh we will god damn you!!!! /s

[–] rodneyck@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 1 day ago (2 children)

You mean shocks Zionist. I like how they like to conflate the two. Zionism = movement, Judaism = religion, the two are not the same.

[–] iopq@lemmy.world -4 points 1 day ago

You realize a lot of Palestinians are Israeli, right? Israeli is what your passport says

[–] redsand@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Wow a Jewish Nazi. You losing your instance is my silver lining to lemm.ee

Nope. Their religion is only slightly stoopid-er by virtue of having more material. Doomsday cult dipshit. I bet you're like a mcchristian and haven't even read the whole Torah, just recited pieces with help.
