The term ‘antisemitism’ is being weaponised and stripped of meaning – and that’s incredibly dangerous (www.theguardian.com)

When the international criminal court issued arrest warrants for Israeli officials in November, the response from the country’s government was all too familiar. The prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, rejected outright the warrants for alleged war crimes in Gaza against him and the former defence minister Yoav Gallant, calling them “an antisemitic decision”. The ultranationalist national security adviser, Itamar Ben-Gvir, declared that the court had shown “once again that it is antisemitic through and through”. And the transport minister, Miri Regev, chimed in, claiming: “This is modern antisemitism in the guise of justice.”

Your grandparents oppression doesn't give you the right to genocide others. If you're Jewish and not genociding others, then you're not being talked about here.

Israel in it's current state must be dismantled and given back to the people.

Like what happened in Gaza in 2005.

An open air prison with enforced embargo and regular bombings to keep the prisoners in terror and destroy infrastructure on a fraction of a fraction of stolen land is not "giving the land back to the people."
