Hold on. “Israeli military atrocities in the West Bank” is antisemitic? You mean criticising the occupation, military enforced population transfer, use of torture and imprisonment without trial incl of minors - all illegal under int’l law, is antisemitic?
The categoric and unhesitant “Yes” from @lisanandy, and all to demonise @Rachael_Swindon at the behest of a man who has praised Orban’s antisemitic government, hired a Holocaust denier etc, shows how unfit Nandy is to be anywhere near power.

People responding to this thread with arguments about the etymology of antisemitism, please stop. Let go of the linguistic semantics, antisemitism is anti-Jewish racism, end of. The point, the only point, is that criticising Israel is not anti-Jewish.
