It has nothing to do with anti-semitism to call Netanyahu an genocidal nazi shit.

Except the people who make our laws say otherwise because they wouldn't want to upset their donors

The US House of Representatives just passed a bill that can make calling Jewish people nazis a hate crime.

When referring to Jewish neocolonists, you mean. Surely nobody is going to get in trouble for referring to anticolonial Jews as ‘Kapos’ or whatnot, which I have seen much too often.

It will soon, the bill passed the house that adds "comparing Israel to Nazis" to the official antisemitic hate speech list - but according to a friend (been out of town and busy to read it myself) it's worded to cover basically any criticism of Israel.

The point is once its added the department of education can pull funding, accreditation, etc from any schools that "allow antisemitic speech or actions (aka protests)"

Not in Spain, our president is advocating for an independent Palestinian state as a path to ending genocide (sic) and fostering peace in the Middle East..
