hate your Likud hateful fascist government because they are hateful fascists, not because they are Jewish. That is what she needs to learn. Many people who love America hate the current corrupt fascist regime. We don't necessarily hate Evangelicals, just the ugly regime Evangelicals support.

Nothing fascist about that.

Israelis don't need to "learn" anything, it's you that is conflating criticizing Israel with Antisemitism.

And FYI, the Likud party that you describe as "hateful fascists" is overwhelmingly made up of Jewish people of color who used to live in the Levant, Gulf and Mahgreb. Their family memories are of harassment, oppression, murder and expulsion. They have long memories.

Nowhere did she say or imply the whole world hates Israel or the Jews. How presumptuous and arrogant to tell an Israeli and a Jew what she "needs to learn". Do you also tell other minorities or nationalities what they need to learn" according to your experiences?

BTW, this is the Jewish group.

Christian. It doesn't follow that I hate Christians any more than it follows that everyone who dislikes the apartheid government of Israel hates Jews. Many people are capable of making a distinction between politics and religion. Especially on a site like DU. It's insulting to therefore assume that anyone who criticizes Israel is anti-Semitic. Yes?

You obviously didn't understand the article or didn't read it. The repeated strawman you keep employing, is therefore insulting, especially in the Jewish group...

As one of the hosts of this group, do not make the assertion that any/all/every criticism is claimed to be anti-Semitism again.

There's nothing more offensive than gentiles telling Jews what antisemitism is.

Also, Israel is not a fascist government. I know that's the catchword of the last nearly 20 years to describe any government you do not like but that's not how things work.

But your short post has a lot of antisemitic elements to it:

Let me parse:

"The whole world does not hate Israelis or Jews. Many of us hate your Likud . . . "

The key word here is "your". I have no idea who the "your" is you refer to. The author? I don't know her nationality, but she is writing in a British paper. She could be Israeli. She could be English. If the "your" refers to us Jewish frequent posters, well, I believe we are all Americans. Sadly, Donald Trump is our president. The Likud is not "our" government.

"hateful fascist government because they are hateful fascists, not because they are Jewish. That is what she needs to learn. Many people who love America hate the current corrupt fascist regime."

Well, this is over-the-top hyperbole and very similar to Arab activists who call all Israelis "Nazis." No, Israel has a very vibrant, open, democracy, including lots of Druze and Arabs (both Nazarene and Muslim) who are very happy to be citizens. The Likud is a pretty mild center-right party, made up of a good mix of Jewish, Druze, and other people largely relatively-recent victims of ethnic cleansing from the surrounding Muslim countries. It's not remotely fascist.

Now, that doesn't mean I agree with Likud. But that's a bit like calling Mitt Romney a fascist. No, he's a smug asshole who talks out of both sides of his mouth. So, perhaps not coincidentally, is Bibi Netanyahu.

But neither is a fascist.

Please be careful with this kind of hyperbole. People take it literally.

And received no answer.

with antisemitism whatsoever. This is a far right narrative that anyone who supports Israel’s government cannot be antisemite. Neonazi support Israel, they want all the jews move to Israel and they will support them in annihilating Palestine from the planet Earth. This is classic altright ideology. Also, many jews are atheists and do not support judaism so anti-christianity, anti-judaism and anti-islamism are often tolerable.

Would you say, in a minority group,...

...any criticism (sic) of Obama and his policies have nothing to do with racism whatsoever.

...any critisism (sic) of Hillary Clinton and her policies have nothing to do with sexism whatsoever.

...any criticism (sic) of immigration and those policies have nothing to do with racism whatsoever.

...any critisism (sic) of the National Organization of Women and their policies have nothing to do with sexism whatsoever.

? Should I go on? While some criticisms are not anti-Semitic (or racist/sexist/bigoted), there are cases where such accusations of bigotry are, in fact, true. So to claim, "any criticism (sic) of Israel and its policies have nothing to do with antisemitism whatsoever.", is as myopic and incorrect as someone who were to claim that "any criticism of Israel is anti-Semitic."

Seems you have no understanding of anti-Semitism. Furthermore, your "claim", that "many jews are atheists and do not support judaism so anti-christianity, anti-judaism and anti-islamism are often tolerable." is just bizarre. It almost sounds as if you are saying anti-Semitism is acceptable. I also find it disturbing you do not capitalize "Jews" and "Judaism", both of which are proper nouns.

This is the Jewish group and if, for one moment, you think that anti-Semitism is acceptable (or tolerable), then please see yourself out of this space.

Or the existence of anti-semitism in some of the fiery criticisms of Israel.

Is probably to strong a word, I believe.

I think you meant to say "some". Or at least I hope so.
