If you use a sentence that in any way alludes to the existance of innocent Palestinians OR if you compare or equate Israelis and Palestinians together in any way shape or form you'd be considered an anti-Israeli anti-semite.

Calling all of it anti-Semitism because for a lot of people that's an instant argument win. Instead what it's making is more people anti-semetic in general.

If you don't denounce the crazy people, then don't be surprised when others lump you in with them. permalink fedilink source parent
