Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

To Zion, antisemitism is just their catch phrase when in fact they mean you can't be anti Zionist. Oh you don't like it when we genocide an entire people and kill millions. You must be antisemitic!!!! I guess we need to kill you too

If I were Jewish I'd be livid if people kept lumping me in with the state of Israel.

Jews have literally been called "anti-semite" when they criticize Israel.

If a Jew speaks up against Israel they get pressured and threatened by Israel, so they stopped speaking up.

And as we noticed, Israel equating anti zionist with antisemitic made a number of people shrug and go "guess I'm antisemitic now."
