There's a difference between being antisemitic and anti Israel! People seem to forget these days. Being antisemitic because Israel is being shit is extremely stupid

It doesn't help that some actual anti semitic people are also using this as an excuse to chime in. Some protests about it in the UK right now.

I think it's a strategy that used to work: call people anti-Semitic to get them to shut up. It worked after WW2 and the Holocaust but it doesn't work anymore.

Well, the tactic seems to work to some extent.
