Notice you had no condemnation of the Jewish Girl who found HEIL HITLER on her locker with a note that she should go back home along with â Palestine will be free from the River to the ASRâsâ and the PLO claim that Jews were not entitled to pray at the Western Wall, You donât call that Antisemitism vs. not being supportive of all of Israelâs policies? Not surprisedYes...broken down on a per capita basis? On a daily basis Amnerican taxpayers give out over $10M/DAY to Israel.We spend roughy 3.6 Billion in Israel and almost 36 Billion throughout Europe and other Countries.
Additionally, Israel receives ~54% of all US military aid. Mind you, this is a country with a multi-billion dollar arms industry and one of the world leaders in military technology.
US Aid to Israel and the Palestinians
You claim criticism of Israel is deemed â Antisemitism â Not true.
The destruction of free association is business
"In response, pro-Israel advocates have taken the battle to state legislatures, where their lobbyists worked with sympathetic lawmakers to shut down an effort they said threatens the existence of a Jewish state.
A rapid succession of states â 27 in four years â adopted measures to curb the initiative known as BDS.
These new laws and executive orders were crafted by activists, then copied from one state to the next and adopted with virtually identical language. Most require tens of thousands of state contractors to pledge not to boycott Israel or lose their government funding. Other efforts require state pension boards to divest from companies that boycott Israel."
One way to silence Israel boycotts? Get lawmakers to pass anti-BDS bills
The destruction of contradiction and challenge to the Jewish state in government in the US
"WASHINGTON â US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo condemned the growing rise in anti-Semitism around the world Monday, telling a massive crowd at the American Israel Public Affairs Committeeâs that anti-Zionism is commensurate to Jew-hatred.
âLet me go on the record,â he said, âanti-Zionism is anti-semitism.â
Pompeo at AIPAC says âAnti-Zionism is anti-Semitismâ
In Europe as well.
"In the three years since he was elected to lead the Labour party, Corbyn has faced non-stop accusations that his party has an endemic "anti-Semitism problem", despite all evidence to the contrary. Of late, Corbyn himself has become the chief target of such allegations.
Last week the Daily Mail led a media mauling of Corbyn over disparaging comments he made in 2013 about a small group of pro-Israel zealots who had come to disrupt a Palestinian solidarity meeting. His reference to them as "Zionists", it was claimed, served as code for "Jews" and was therefore anti-Semitic."

"Described as ânon-legally bindingâ this definition is perfectly worthless, limited as it is to the idea that anti-Semitism is âa certain perception of Jews which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews.â And yet it is not as harmless as it may appear. Because the May 2016 press release continues as follows: âTo guide IHRA in its work, the following examples may serve as illustrations.â Though never formally adopted by the IHRA, most of the examples in question equate criticisms of Israel with anti-Semitism:
â âManifestations [of anti-Semitism] might include the targeting of the state of Israel, conceived as a Jewish collectivityâ though with the proviso that âcriticism of Israel similar to that levelled against any other country cannot be regarded as anti-Semitic.â But what can âsimilarâ mean when the realities are completely specific, or for associations devoted to defending the rights of the Palestinian people?
â â Accusing Jewish citizens of being more loyal to Israel (. . .) than to the interests of their own nations.â Thus we would no longer have the right to say that the Representative Council of French Jewish Institutions (CRIF in its French abbreviation) has become an annexe of the Israeli Embassy in Paris?
â âDenying the Jewish people their right to self-determination, e.g., by claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavourâ . Israelâs new âBasic Lawâ limits the right of self-determination solely to the âJewish people.â It would be forbidden to oppose this?
â âapplying double standards by requiring of [the State of Israel] a behaviour not expected or demanded of any other democratic nation.â The situations are completely different, what would be the applicable criteria?"
How Israel Manipulates the Struggle Against Anti-Semitism
Legally binding or not they are actively working to pressure and silence foreign government and their citizens regarding ALL actions undertaken by the Israeli state.
